Analog 1 Type
Analog_Input_1_Type

Voltage
(selection menu)
– Selecting the Voltage option opens the menu to its corresponding
monitor variables and the low/high parameters.
Voltage
Analog_Input_Volts_1
0x3B2E 0x00
–327.68 – 327.67V
–32768 – 32767
Read Only The analog voltage at the analog 1 input.
Percent
Analog_Input_Percent_1
0x3B39 0x00
0.0 – 100.0 %
0 – 1000
Read Only The percentage of the voltage at the input pin based upon the
High and Low settings, i.e., the percent of:
[(analog_input_volts_1) – (analog_input_1_low)] /
[(analog_input_1_high) – (analog_input_1_low)]
Voltage Throttle usage: Reference the Forward Min/Max &
Reverse Min/Max Input parameters located in the Application
Setup » Throttle menu.
Brake input usage: Reference the Brake Min/Max Input
parameters located in the Application Setup » Brake menu.
Low
Analog_Input_1_Low
0x32F3 0x00
0.0 – 11.0V
0 – 1100
0.0V The minimum input voltage before a fault is declared. When the
Analog 1 Type selection is voltage, this set point represents the
0% point for the normalized input.
Triggers the Throttle Input fault (0x2210) when the voltage reading
is below this input voltage reading, if Throttle_Source = 1.
Triggers the Brake Input fault (0x2310) when the voltage reading
is below this input voltage reading, if Brake_Source = 1.
High
Analog_Input_1_High
0x32F4 0x00
0.0 – 11.0V
0 – 110
5.1V The maximum input voltage before a fault is declared. When the
Analog 1 Type selection is voltage, this set point represents the
100% point for the normalized input.
Triggers the Throttle Input fault (0x2210) when the voltage reading
is above this input voltage reading, if Throttle_Source = 1.
Triggers the Brake Input fault (0x2310) when the voltage reading
is above this input voltage reading, if Brake_Source = 1.
Fault Tolerance
Analog_Input_1_Fault_Tolerance
0x331A 0x00
0.0 – 11.0V
0 – 1100
0.0V Species the voltage threshold above the congured high limit
or below the low limit, exceeding this results in an analog out of
range fault.
For example, if High = 9.6V, Low = 1V and Tolerance = 0.2V, an
input voltage between 1V to 9.6V is mapped to 0–100%.
Voltages above 9.8V (9.6 + 0.2) or below 0.8V (1V – 0.2V) trigger
the fault.

Parameters for 3-Wire Pot selection Reference the 3-wire potentiometer throttle section, Chapter 6.
Potentiometer 1 (wiper) & 6 (high)
Analog 1 Type
Analog_Input_1_Type
0x32E6 0x00
3 Wire Pot
(selection menu)
– Selecting the 3-Wire Pot option opens the Nominal
Resistance parameter.
Note, when conguring Analog input 1 as a 3-wire Potentiometer
input, it becomes the wiper (Input 1) and is paired with Analog 6
(Input 6) as the potentiometer wiper’s 5V supply voltage (high).
The Programmer app will automatically adjust the menu to match
this parameter conguration.
