8.8 Throttle response
The ACE3 controls the truck speed by means of a not linear function of the
accelerator position, as to provide a better resolution of the speed control when the
truck is moving slowly.
For the definition of such response, the following parameters are used:
 THROTTLE 0 ZONE [% of MAX VACC]
 THROTTLE X1 POINT [% of MAX VACC]
 THROTTLE Y1 POINT [% of MAX SPEED]
 THROTTLE X2 POINT [% of MAX VACC]
 THROTTLE Y2 POINT [% of MAX SPEED]
 THROTTLE X3 POINT [% of MAX VACC]
 THROTTLE Y3 POINT [% of MAX SPEED]
The speed remains at the FREQUENCY CREEP value as long as the voltage from
the accelerator potentiometer is below THROTTLE 0 ZONE. Basically this defines a
dead zone close to the neutral position.
For higher potentiometer voltages, the speed setpoint grows up as a polygonal
chain defined by the following table of points.
