disconnect the battery, and exchange the motor’s field connections ( F1
and F2 ) on the controller. The motor should now turn in the proper
direction. If you are using a programmer, you can use the parameter FIELD
DIR SWAP to change the motor field output without physically changing
the wiring (see page 25).
The motor should run proportionally faster with increasing throttle.
If it does not, refer to Section 6.
5. If you are using a programmer, go to the Monitor menu. Scroll down
to observe the status of the switches:
Mode *
Foot Input (pedal switch)
Key Input
Forward Input
Reverse Input
Mode Switch *
Cycle each switch in turn, observing the programmer. The programmer
should display the correct status for each switch.
* “Mode Switch” tells you the physical status of the mode switch (open
or closed). “Mode” is a monitor value that tells you the mode in which
the vehicle is currently operating. This may not correspond to the status
of the mode switch—for example, if the
MODE AFTER KEY parameter is set
to Off and the mode switch was flipped while the vehicle was being
operated.
6. Take the vehicle down off the blocks and drive it in a clear area. It
should have smooth acceleration and good top speed. Recommended
procedures for tuning the vehicle’s driving characteristics are presented
in Section 5: Tuning Guide.
7. Test the deceleration and braking of the vehicle.
8. Verify that all options, such as static return to off (SRO), electromagnetic
brake (or WalkAway ™ ), and reverse signal are as desired.
9. If you used a programmer, disconnect it when you have completed the
checkout procedure, to minimize battery discharge.
