0x37C9 0x00
Off / On
0 – 1
Off (0) When this parameter is On, the distance variables (Vehicle
Odometer, Braking Distance Captured, Distance Since
Stop, Distance Fine, and the Capture Distance variables)
will accumulate and display in metric units (km, meters, or
decimeters). When programmed Off, the distance variables will
accumulate and display in English units (miles, feet, or inches).
Speed to RPM
Speed_to_RPM
0x37CE 0x00
10.0 – 3000.0
100 – 30000
253.0 This parameter affects the vehicle speed displayed in the
Monitor » Motor menu, and modies the VCL variable Vehicle_
Speed; it does not affect actual vehicle performance. The value
entered for Speed to RPM is a conversion factor that scales motor
speed to vehicle speed.
KPH to RPM: (G/d)*5305, where G = gear ratio, d = tire
diameter [mm].
MPH to RPM: (G/d)*336.1, where G = gear ratio, d = tire
diameter [in].
Hint: Use the vehicle tire’s rolling diameter for “d” based upon a
rollout measurement. Roll the vehicle a known number of wheel
revolutions and measure the distance.
Circumference (C) = Distance/wheel-revolutions. Diameter
(d) = C/Π. Π (pi)= 3.14159.
Then use the Distance Since Stop monitor variable to cover
a known distance (e.g., 50 – 100 feet) to align the value to the
measured distance while adjusting the Speed to RPM parameter.
See the Distance Since Stopped variable (below).
