7.15  Push Too Fast Threshold 
If the solenoid brake is disconnected from the motor, allowing the wheels and motor to rotate, the controller can detect the 
motor rotating above a certain speed and brake it automatically, thus removing the possibility of the scooter freewheeling at an 
excessive speed. This function will operate if the scooter is switched off and even if there are no batteries fitted or connected. 
This  parameter  is  factory  set  and  should  not  require  adjustment.  For  further  details  contact 
PGDT. 
It is the responsibility of the scooter manufacturer to ensure that adequate precautions are taken 
to warn the user against the hazards of freewheeling the scooter at excessive speeds. It is also 
the responsibility of the scooter manufacturer to utilize a suitable freewheel mechanism to reduce 
these  risks. PGDT  accepts  no  liability  for  losses  of  any  kind  resulting from  excessive freewheel 
speeds of a scooter. 
7.16  Push Too Fast Timeout 
The controller can detect the motor rotating above a certain speed and brake it automatically. This parameter sets the amount 
of time between periodic retesting of the motor speed when a freewheel switch is connected to Inhibit 3.  
This  parameter  is  factory  set  and  should  not  require  adjustment.  For  further  details  contact 
PGDT.

speeds of a scooter. 
7.17  Freewheel Enable 
This parameter determines if the Inhibit 3 input acts as a Freewheel Enable. The speed will be reduced by the programmed 
value of Push to Fast Threshold, thus removing the possibility of the scooter freewheeling at an excessive speed. 
 
The programmable options are: 
 
Enable:  The Inhibit 3 input will act as a Freewheel input. Connecting the input to 0V will activate the solenoid 
brake. 
 
Disable: The input will act as per the Inhibit 3 parameter settings.

speeds of a scooter. 
7.18  Inhibit 2 Horn Input Enable 
This parameter is operated off of the Inhibit 2 input. It can be programmed On or Off. When programmed to On, and the inhibit 
is active, an alarm will sound. If Inhibit 2 is set to Off, the Inhibit 2 Horn Input Enable can be used to drive a non self oscillating 
horn.
