4.11.2 Inhibit 2 Speed
This parameter sets the maximum speed of the scooter when the Inhibit 2 input is active. The parameter is adjustable between 0
and 100% in steps of 1%.
When Inhibit Speed = 0 this acts as an inhibit. At this time the controller will refer to the Inhibit
Operation parameter to establish what type of inhibit will be created.
If the Inhibit Speed is greater than 0 then the controller will not enter an inhibit state.
4.11.3 Inhibit 2 Operation
This parameter is only effective if the Inhibit 2 Speed parameter has been set to 0.
The parameter can be set to one of two states:
Latched - Means the inhibitor, such as a height switch, must be deactivated and the controller turned off and
on before the scooter can be operated again.
Non-Latched - Means the controller can be reset to an operational state by removing the inhibitor.
If set to Latched, then when Inhibit 2 is active the TruCharge display will flash 6 bars and a trip will appear in the diagnostic log.
Example 1 - To provide a speed inhibit function that is active when Inhibit 2 is connected to 0V and is non-latching, program as
below.
Mode = 1
Speed Limit Value = 40%
Operation = Non-Latched
If this inhibit is activated then the controller will cause the scooter to decelerate to the programmed speed limit value. This could
be activated by a seat position sensor being activated. In this instance the TruCharge indicator will remain unchanged.
Example 2 - To provide a trip inhibit function that is active when Inhibit 2 is connected to 0V and is latching, program as below.
Mode = 1
Speed Limit Value = 0
Operation = Latching
If this inhibit is activated then the controller will cause the scooter to decelerate to a complete stop (as if the throttle has been
released).
4.12 Inhibit 3
The S-Drive Scooter Controller has 3 highly versatile inputs that can be configured to provide inhibit and speed limiting functions.
These inputs are referred to as Inhibit 1, Inhibit 2 and Inhibit 3. Inhibit 3 input is located at pin 14 of the 14 way tiller connector.
If this Inhibit is not to be used PGDT recommends that the Inhibit Speed parameter be set to
100%.
