M1/M2 FWD SPEED
The forward speed parameter defines the maximum speed limit in the forward
direction. It is adjustable from 4.0 to 40.0, in units of mph or km/h (depending
on RPM TO SPEED the setting).
REV SPEED
The reverse speed parameter defines the maximum speed limit in the reverse
direction. It is adjustable from 4.0 to 16.0, in units of mph or km/h (depend
-
ing on
RPM TO SPEED the setting).
RPM TO SPEED
The rpm to speed parameter is a conversion factor used to generate a vehicle
speed estimate from the speed sensor input (motor RPM signal). Use these
equations to calculate the value to enter for
RPM TO SPEED:
For English units (mph):
tire diameter (inches)
× 63
gear ratio
For metric units (km/h):
tire diameter (cm)
× 40
gear ratio
TACHO POLES
The tachometer poles parameter configures the speed sensor, and should be
set to the number of magnetic poles in the speed sensor magnet.
TACHO POLES is
adjustable from 4 to 20; see speed sensor description (page 14) for information
about sensor types.
