PARAMETER ALLOWABLE RANGE DEFAULT DESCRIPTION
Interlock Input Source
Interlock_Input_Source
0x34B2 0x00
0 – 32
0 – 32
5
[PCF]
Interlock switch assignment.
Using the available switch inputs, select the digital input number
that the interlock will use. The available switches depends upon
the controller and application. For example, Switch 5 (pin 9) =
INTERLOCK in Figure 6.
Set this parameter to 0 to allow VCL control of interlock.
To enable interlock with KSI turn-on, set the input source to
switch 20 (the Keyswitch Input).
Switch_20 = CAN Index 0x3339 0x00
Forward Input Source
Forward_Input_Source
0x3342 0x00
0 – 32
0 – 32
0
[PCF]
Forward switch assignment.
Using the available switch inputs, select the digital input number
that the forward input signal will use. The available switches
depends upon the controller and application. For example, Switch
7 (pin 22) = FORWARD in Figure 6.
Reverse Input Source
Reverse_Input_Source
0x3344 0x00
0 – 32
0 – 32
0
[PCF]
Reverse switch assignment.
Using the available switch inputs, select the digital input number
that the reverse input signal will use. The available switches
depends upon the controller and application. For example, Switch
8 (pin 233) = REVERSE in Figure 6.
Throttle Source
Throttle_Source
0x3340 0x00
0 – 32
0 – 32
1
[PCF]
Throttle assignment.
Assigns which analog input is the wired-throttle (potentiometer or
voltage). Default uses Analog 1.
See (above): Programmer » Controller Setup » Inputs » Analog 1
Type
Note: a VCL Throttle is set under the Application Setup » Throttle »
VCL_Throttle_Enable parameter. This frees up a switch input.
See Figure 24 for more on the throttle setup options.
Brake Source
Brake_Source
0x33D4 0x00
0 – 32
0 – 32
0
[PCF]
Brake assignment.
Assigns which analog input is the wired-brake (potentiometer or
voltage). Figure 6 illustrates a 2-wire pot setup.
Note: a VCL Brake is set under the Application Setup » Brake »
VCL_Brake_Enable parameter. This frees-up a switch input.
Dual Steer Source
Dual_Steer_Source
0x3A48 0x00
0 – 32
0 – 32
0 The dual steer assignment.
For using a steer input, see the Dual Drive Operation manual
supplement (e.g., 53231, Rev A March 2020, or newer).
EMR State
EMR_State
0x3490 0x00
On-Off
0 – 1
Read Only
Off
Indicates if EMR is active.
EMR Switch Source NO
EMR_Input_Source
0x3729 0x00
0 – 32
0 – 32
0 Sets a normally open EMR (NO, Emergency Reverse) input.
When both this and the redundant are unmapped, the EMR is
settable by VCL.
To supervise both inputs to verify they remain in complementary
states, map both this NO and the NC (below) inputs parameters.
EMR Switch Source NC
EMR_Input_Source_Redundant
0x372F 0x00
0 – 32
0 – 32
0 Sets a normally closed EMR (NC, Emergency Reverse) input.
When both this and the redundant are unmapped, the EMR is
settable by VCL.
To supervise both inputs to verify they remain in complementary
states, map both this NC and the NO (above) inputs parameters.
