WarP-Drive Interface Module
It is also possible to add a NetGain Controls, Inc.
Interface Module (IM) to the vehicle. The “IM”
module may be mounted on the windshield, or
built-in, or not used at all, depending upon the
drivers needs. The IM module is an alternative to
the Android based Torque application. It should
be noted that in order to upgrade the WarP-Drive
Industrial software an “IM” module is required.
Many of the EV conversion shops will upgrade the
software using their IM module, or loan the IM
module to someone that needs to update their
firmware.
The IM module has numerous features, including:
• Data logging to a mini-SD card from all
internal sensors in the WarP-Drive. Some of the internal sensors are: motor current, voltage,
battery current, battery voltage, chill plate temperature, pulse width, throttle position, internal
power supply voltages, external supply voltage, error and warning codes, and controller
operating state. Data can then be viewed on a computer which accepts an SD card using the
included adapter.
• Firmware upgrades to the WarP-Drive controller.
• Real-time display of the above data parameters on a variety of screens.
• Real time clock with super-capacitor battery backup. Set the time once, and even when
unplugged, the time will be accurately kept.
• Easy in-vehicle mounting using a windshield suction-cup mount (provided).
• Powered over the connection to the WarP-Drive so only a single cable is required to operate.
• Extremely sleek and compact design fits comfortably in your hands.
• The interface module's firmware can easily be updated by simply obtaining the new firmware
file by download, copying the upgrade files to the mini-SD card, inserting the card into the
