Loading, Changing Controller Parameters
2- Left/Right Adjust
This slider will let you configure the controller so that it applies more power to the motors
in one direction than in the other. See “Left / Right Tuning Adjustment” on page 49.
3- Acceleration Setting
This slider will let you select one of seven preset acceleration values. The label on the right
shows a numerical value which represents the amount of time the controller will take to
accelerate a motor from idle to maximum speed. See “Programmable Acceleration” on
page 47.
Analog or R/C Specific Settings
The screen shown in Figure 105 slightly changes in function of whether or not the Analog
Input mode is selected.
If the Analog Input mode is selected on the main screen, then this page is used to set the
Analog Deadband value. In the R/C mode, this page is used to view and change parame-
ters used in the R/C mode of operation. None of these parameters has any effect when
running the controller in RS232 mode.
If the controller is configured in RS232 mode, some of these menus will turn gray but will
remain active.
1- Deadband
This slider will let you set the amount of joystick motion off its center position before the
motors start moving. The slider will work identically in the R/C or analog mode, however,
the % value will be different. See “Joystick Deadband Programming” on page 121 and
“Analog Deadband Adjustment” on page 131.
