THROTTLE MAX
The throttle maximum parameter sets the wiper voltage or resistance required
to produce 100% controller output. Decreasing the throttle max setting reduces
the wiper voltage or resistance and therefore the full stroke necessary to produce
full controller output. This feature allows reduced-range throttle assemblies to
be accommodated.
Examples are shown in Figure 14 to illustrate the effect of three different
throttle max settings (100%, 90%, 60%) on the full-stroke wiper voltage or
resistance required to attain 100% controller output for the four throttle types.
The programmer displays the throttle max parameter as a percentage of the
throttle range. The throttle max parameter can be adjusted from 100% to 60%;
the default setting is 90%. The nominal throttle wiper range depends on the
throttle type selected. See Table 1 (page 12) for the characteristics of your
selected throttle type.
The throttle max parameter is tuned as part of the vehicle performance
adjustment process (Section 5).
