APPENDIX A: GLOSSARY

The automatic fault detection system includes:

contactor coil open / shorted driver (F/R and shunt contactors)
contactor driver overcurrent / contactor coil short
contactor welded
emergency reverse circuit check
M- output fault
memory checks upon start-up
overvoltage cutoff
power supply out of range (internal)
throttle fault
undervoltage cutback
watchdog (external and internal)
watchdog (internal)

Fault recording

Fault events are recorded in the controller’s memory. Multiple occurrences of the
same fault are recorded as one occurrence.

The fault event list can be loaded into the programmer for readout. The

Special Diagnostics mode provides access to the controller’s diagnostic history
file—the entire fault event list created since the diagnostic history file was last
cleared. The Diagnostics mode, on the other hand, provides information about
only the currently active faults.

Fault recovery

(including recovery from disable)

Almost all faults require a cycling of the KSI or brake input to reset the controller
and enable operation.

The only exceptions are these:

FAULT

RECOVERY

anti-tiedown

release and re-select Mode 1

contactor overcurrent

when condition clears

emergency reverse

BB re-applied or brake cycled

HPD

lower throttle to below HPD threshold

overvoltage

when battery voltage drops below overvoltage

SRO

when proper sequence is followed

thermal cutback

when temperature comes within range

throttle fault

clears when condition gone

undervoltage

when battery voltage rises above undervoltage
