1 Introduction
The main advantage of using programmable controllers is that they can be easily
tailored to the specific needs and capabilities of a particular vehicle while taking into
account safe performance characteristics.
The programmable controller achieves this great flexibility by referring to a set of
internal parameters which govern factors such as the vehicle’s speed, acceleration
and braking. These parameters can be changed over a wide span to suit different
vehicles and users, using a simple, hand-held programmer. If you are setting up a
speed controller on a vehicle for the first time, refer to section 6.
If you are using the SP1 programmer with a DT125 controller,
please contact PGDT for more information.
It is possible to set up a controller so that it is unsuitable
for some uses and possibly even some vehicles. Take care
when programming a controller and if you need any advice
in programming or selecting values, please do not hesitate
to contact PGDT.
Programming should only be conducted by competent
personnel with in-depth knowledge of PGDT electronic
controllers. Incorrect programming could result in an unsafe
set-up of a vehicle for a user. PGDT accept no liability for
losses of any kind if the programming of the controller is
altered from factory pre-set values.
