ALLOWABLE
PARAMETER RANGE DESCRIPTION
Throttle Map 20–80 % The throttle map parameter adjusts the static throttle map. The parameter
setting corresponds to the throttle command at half throttle, as shown in
Figure 7.
A setting of 50% provides linear response. Values below 50% reduce
the throttle command at low throttle positions, providing enhanced slow
speed maneuverability. Values above 50% give the vehicle a faster, more
responsive feel at low throttle positions.
Tremor Suppression 0–100 % This parameter can be used to limit the controller’s response to sharp
throttle movements, such as movements resulting from hand tremors.
Larger values will provide a steadier ride, but they also result in more
sluggish response to throttle request. There is thus a trade-off between
crispness of response (low Tremor Suppression settings) and steady
speed in the presence of tremors (high settings).

adjustment parameters.
These four parameters
determine the controller’s
response to throttle position,
in forward and reverse.
Here,
Deadband = 10%
Throttle Max = 90%
Creep = 0%.
