RMP 210

Hardware DTZ

A Decel To Zero (DTZ) can be initiated in hardware via Pin 2 of J8 on the CCU. This signal is normally pulled low by a 10K Ohm resistor. 
If this pin is pulled up to +5 V then the system will immediately begin to decelerate. The rate of deceleration is set in software; refer to 
the 

RMP V3 Interface Guide. 

Conveniently, +5 V is provided on Pin 1 of J8, allowing the user to easily connect a normally open momentary type switch between Pin 
2 and Pin 1 of J8 and control the deceleration request. Segway has found this useful when connecting some types of remote control 
disable systems.
After the RMP has stopped moving, it will hold position and remain powered on.

Mode Selection

The CCU defaults to normal operation, however, for the purpose of fault troubleshooting or for reloading code the user can change 
the mode. Mode selection is via CCU J1.

Normal Operation

With Pin 1 and Pin 2 both floating, the CCU operates normally. Connecting either Pin 1 or Pin 2 after the system is running will 
have no effect.

Diagnostic Mode

Connecting Pin 1 to Pin 3 sends the BOOT1 signal. If connected at startup, the CCU will enter Diagnostic mode. For details, see 
"Diagnostic Mode," p. 25.

Bootloader Mode

Connecting Pin 2 to Pin 3 sends the BOOT2 signal. If connected at startup, the CCU will enter Bootloader mode. For details, see 
"Bootloader Mode," p. 25. If both pins 1 and 2 are connected to pin 3 (ground), the CCU will enter Bootloader mode.

Status Indicators

There are two status indicators on the CCU that are intended to be connected to LEDs (the Power LED and the Status LED on the UI 
Panel). On the UI Panel, the Power indicator is a bicolor yellow/red LED and the Status indicator is a green LED. For information on 
the indicator LEDs and what their patterns mean see "Powering On," p. 29. Status indicators are connected at CCU J16.

Coin Cell Battery

The coin cell battery on the CCU maintains power to the Real-Time Clock (RTC). If the battery is removed while the RMP is powered 
off, the RTC will reset. This battery is not user replacable. Removing this battery will result in zeroing the clock and will void your 
warrantee.
