Example:
Setting of 0 = no speed limit
Setting of 170 = maximum speed
reduction
Setting of 110 =100%-((110-51) - (creep val/8)) x 0.78
=44%
FUNCTION 12
REVERSE SPEED LIMIT
( Push 12 )
This function allows for the adjustment of the top speed of
the vehicle (maximum battery volts to the motor) when it is
being operated in the reverse direction.
Range
100% to 0% of battery volts
Set
51 to 170
Resolution
0.78% per set unit
Example:
Setting of 0 = no speed limit
Setting of 170 = maximum speed
reduction
Setting of 134 =100%-((134-51) - (creep val/8)) x 0.78
=
20%
FUNCTION 13
NOT APPLICABLE
This function is not applicable to this control type
FUNCTION 14
INTERNAL RESISTANCE
COMPENSATION
( Push 14 )
This function is used when the Battery Discharge Indicator
is present. Adjustment of this function will improve the
accuracy of the BDI. In order to determine this setting, the
voltage drop of the battery under load must first be
calculated by the following method:
1. Record open circuit voltage (Vo) by measuring the
voltage at the control positive and negative power
terminals.
2. Load the traction motor to 100 amps in 1A and record the
voltage (V
L
) at the control positive and negative power
terminals.
3. Calculate voltage drop (V
Drop
) as follows:
V
Drop
= V
O
- V
L
4. Use the table below to determine the appropriate setting
using the calculated V
Drop
as a reference.

FUNCTION 15
BATTERY VOLTS
(Push
l5)
In order for the battery discharge indication feature of this
control to operate properly, this function must be set to a
value between 70 and 80.
The following functions have function numbers larger
than the numbers on the Handset keyboard. To access
these functions, push the CONT key and the number
shown in the instructions at the same time. THE TURF
SPEED SWITCH MUST BE OPEN.
FUNCTION 16
NOT APPLICABLE
This function is not applicable to this control type
FUNCTION 17
CARD TYPE SELECTION
( Push CONT 2 )
This function allows for the selection of the card type for
this vehicle’s application. This function should be set
between:
50 – 54 when speed is measured in MPH
55 – 60 when speed is measured in KPH
Note: This function is closely related to Function 22. If this
function is adjusted, Function 22 must also be adjusted.
FUNCTION 18
NOT APPLICABLE
This function is not applicable to this control type
