7.19  Inhibit 2 Horn Input Enable Tone 
This parameter sets the tone when the alarm is active. The parameter can be programmed to 0, 1, 2 or 3. 
0 - Self Resonating     1 - 2khz  2 - 1kHz    3 - 500hz  
8  Motor Parameters 
8.1  Current Limit 
Will allow the min and max current limits to be altered in 1 Amp steps between 10 and 60A if dependencies permit.  
Max    Sets the continuous current output of the S-Drive. 
Min     Sets the current output of the S-Drive when it is at 80°C. Refer to section 8.4. 
8.2  Boost Drive Current and Boost Drive Time 
These parameters provide a current boost for a set length of time if the controller recognizes a drive requirement which causes 
the motors to require more current, such as when the scooter is being driven up a hill. Refer to the following graph. 
The drive boost current can be set in 1A steps between 10 and 140A but not less than the ‘current limit max’ setting, and the drive 
boost time to be altered in 1 second steps between 0 and 10 seconds. 
The maximum values for these parameters are shown in the table below.  
8.3  Current Foldback Threshold, Current Foldback Time, Current Foldback Level, Motor Cooling Time
 
The  parameters  Threshold,  Time,  Level  and  Motor  Cooling  can  be  used  to  protect  the  motor  from  overheating.  If  the  motor 
current exceeds the value set by Threshold for a period set by Time, then the S-Drive’s current output will be reduced to a value 
set by Level. After this has occurred, full current is only permissible after a time period set by Motor Cooling. 
Threshold    Adjustable between 1A and the value of Current Limit Max. in steps of 1A. 
Time    Adjustable between 0s and 250s in steps of 1s. 
Level    Adjustable between 0% and 100% in steps of 1%. 
Motor Cooling   Adjustable between 0s and 3825s in steps of 15s. 
This is useful for protecting motors against potential damage when the scooter is being used on a long gradient.  
Example    Current Limit Max.= 60A, Threshold = 40A, Time = 30s, Level = 50% and Motor Cooling = 150s.
