PARAMETER RANGE DESCRIPTION
Brake Pedal Enable On / Off Determines whether the brake input and algorithm are enabled, making
Brake_Pedal_Enable On / Off the brake throttle part of the motor control command.

Brake Type 1 – 5 These E and SE controllers accept a variety of brake inputs. The brake type
Brake_Type 1 – 5 parameter can be programmed as follows:
0x300A 0x00
1 2-wire rheostat, 5kΩ–0 input
2 single-ended 3-wire 1kΩ–10kΩ potentiometer,
0–5V voltage source, or current source
3 2-wire rheostat, 0–5kΩ input
4 (not applicable)
5 VCL input (VCL_Brake)
Note: Do not change this parameter while the controller is powering the motor.
Any time this parameter is changed a Parameter Change Fault (fault code 49)
is set and must be cleared by cycling power; this protects the controller and the
operator.
