* Throttle Type: By default, the Throttle Type of controller 1228-2430 is set as Type "0". The controller 1228-2430 can be
programmed to accept single-ended, wigwag, or inverted wigwag signals from a 5kΩ, 3-wire pot or from a 5V throttle. The
throttle input signal type options (Types “0” through “5” in the Throttle Type programming menu) are listed as below: * 0 =
wigwag pot or voltage throttle
* 1 =
inverted wigwag pot or voltage throttle
* 2 =
single-ended pot; maximum speed = 5kΩ
* 3 =
inverted single-ended pot; maximum speed = 0
* 4 =
single-ended voltage throttle; maximum speed = 5V
* 5 =
inverted single-ended voltage throttle; maximum speed = 0
* Dimensions: W91xL156xH43 mm
* Net Weight: 0.6 kg
* Regulatory compliance: Designed to ANSI RESNA WC 14/21, ISO 7176-14, ISO 7176-21, and EN 12184. Documentation available to
* Operating ambient temperature range: -25°C to 50°C
* Storage ambient temperature range: -40°C to 70°C
* Package environmental rating: IP40
Features Include:
* Full bridge power MOSFET design, providing * infinitely variable forward, reverse, drive, and brake control
* silent high frequency operation
* high efficiency
* Complete diagnostics through the CURTIS programmer and a status LED
* Full compliance with all applicable international standards
* Available for single-ended or wigwag 5kΩ potentiometer throttles and 5V throttles (both standard full stroke and restricted
range)
* MultiMode™ input selects between two different operating modes, thus allowing optimization of vehicle characteristics for
different driving conditions (for example, indoor/outdoor)
* Speed limit input provides linear variable speed limiting when an external speed limit pot is used
* Current limiting in both driving and regenerative braking modes
* Load compensation stabilizes speed on ramps and over obstacles
* Speed scaler eliminates variations in maximum speed that would otherwise result from variations in battery charge levels
* High pedal disable (HPD) function with lockout monitors status of the throttle during turn-on and prevents operation until the
throttle has been returned to neutral
* Key-off deceleration function provides a controlled deceleration if the keyswitch is turned off while driving
* “E Stop” provides a faster deceleration for emergency stops
* Seat lift function simplifies the wiring required to implement seat lift in DME scooter applications
* Comprehensive fault detection monitors main contactor, output stage, throttle demand vs. output, etc., and disables the drive
functions if any conditions are outside specified limits
* ISO 7176 compliant throttle fault detection circuitry inhibits driving if throttle pot signal goes out of range for any reason
* Missing/shorted brake detection forces neutral in the event of an open or shorted brake circuit
* Anti-rollback/anti-roll-forward function sets brake delay according to speed and direction for improved braking response and
minimized rollback on hills, etc.
* Reverse beeper option can be used to drive a low current dc horn when vehicle is in reverse
* “Push” input electrically releases brake for key-on pushing (requires that the vehicle be stopped first)
* “Push-Too-Fast” feature guards against unpowered vehicle runaway by powering up and regulating motor voltage to limit vehicle
speed
* Inhibit input disables the controller and puts the vehicle in a safe state during charging, etc.
* Power saver deactivates the main relay after 25 seconds of nonoperation and deactivates the entire controller after the
programmed sleep delay has elapsed
* BDI output can be used to provide data to a voltmeter; the BDI output can be “stuffed” (optional) in order to display the
battery state of charge during battery charging even while the keyswitch is turned off
* Undervoltage cutback function protects against operation at low battery voltage
* Overvoltage protection shorts the motor and disables driving in the event of excessive battery voltage
* Thermally protected
* Reverse polarity protected (battery input)
* Easily programmable through the CURTIS Model 1313-4331 Handheld Programmer or 1314 PC Programming Station.
