PG DRIVES TECHNOLOGY I-DRIVE TECHNICAL MANUAL – PROGRAMMING
5.3.1 Battery Lockout Voltage
This parameter sets the threshold voltage at which the controller will lockout the function as set by the Battery Lockout Type
parameter and is adjustable in 0.1V steps from 14V to 38V.
5.3.2 Battery Lockout Voltage 2
This parameter sets an alternate threshold voltage at which the controller will lockout the function as set by the Battery Lockout
Type parameter and is adjustable in 0.1V steps from 14V to 38V.
5.3.3 Battery Lockout Time
This parameter sets the time for which the battery voltage must be below the programmed Battery Lockout Voltage or Battery
Lockout 2 Voltage to be effective and is adjustable in 1 second steps from 0 to 60 seconds.
If Battery Lockout Time is set to ‘0’, Battery Lockout functionality is disabled.
5.3.4 Battery Lockout Type
This parameter selects which function will be locked out or inhibited once the voltage is below the programmed threshold level
for the programmed time. Any combination of the following functions can be selected:
None.
Traction.
Aux 1.
Aux 2.
Aux 3.
5.3.5 Battery Lockout Input Select
This parameter allows the OEM to choose which input will be used to select the alternate programmed threshold voltage, Battery
Lockout Voltage 2. One of the following inputs can be selected:
None.
Inhibit 1.
Inhibit 2.
Reverse Switch.
Example:
An i-drive is being used to control the traction and other functions of a small pedestrian operated floorcare machine. The Inhibit 1
input and Aux 1 Output are used to control a relay that controls the machine’s cleaning brushes. The machine can be used with
2 types of batteries ‘A’ and ‘B’, which should not be discharged below 22.3 and 21.8V respectively. The Inhibit 2 input is
connected to 0V via a 3
rd
pin on the Type ‘B’ battery connector, allowing the i-Drive to detect which battery type has been fitted.
The parameters are set as follows:
Battery Lockout Voltage 22.3V.
Battery Lockout Voltage 2 21.8V.
Battery Lockout Time 20 seconds.
Battery Lockout Type Aux 1.
Battery Lockout Input Select Inhibit 2.
