Baserunner V6 User Manual
Rev0
This feature allows for safe operation of motors in Barebones or Superharness
kits without a V3 Cycle Analyst. If you have a Cycle Analyst we recommend
using the CA3’s thermal rollback features instead, and leaving the controller’s
“Motor Temperature Sensing Enable” rollback unchecked.
7.8 Pedal Sensor Parameters (Superharness)
PAS Setup tab
NOTE: This section only applies to Superharness setups where a pedal sensor
is plugged into the controller's 6 pin PAS plug. For a Cycle Analyst system, the
pedal sensor behaviour is entirely managed by the CA3 and the Baserunner V6
is not involved.
If you are using a torque or cadence sensor for which we don't have a preset,
then these value will need to be input manually based on the signal levels of your
particular sensor. Each parameter has a tooltip that will pop up when the mouse
hovers over.
The pedal sense delay parameter controls how much crank rotation will trigger
the PAS power to engage. If the value is too low with high pulse pedal sensors,
then small bumps in the crank will cause the motor to engage. Set this high
enough that the power only starts when you actively pedal, but low enough that it
responds without too much delay.
If you have a torque sensor, you need to know both the offset voltage at rest as
well as the sensitivity to pedal torque in Nm/V. The Symmetry type determines
how the torque signal is averaged. “Both Cranks” will average over half a pedal
rotation, while “Single Side” will average a full crank rotation and then double the
value.
