Circuitry Protection Devices

To protect the control circuitry from accidental shorts, a low current fuse
(appropriate for the maximum current draw) should be connected in series
between the battery and KSI. Additionally, a high current fuse should be wired
in series with the main contactor to protect the motor, controller, and batter-
ies from accidental shorts in the power system. The appropriate fuse for each
application should be selected with the help of a reputable fuse manufacturer
or dealer. The standard wiring diagram, Figure 3, shows the recommended
location for each fuse.

Mode Select Switch Operation

The two mode select switches (Mode Select 1 and Mode Select 2) together define
the four operating modes. The switch combinations are shown in Table 2.

Load Sensor [optional]

The 1243

GEN

2 provides a load sensor input at Pin 1. The controller can be

programmed to vary the strength of regen braking depending on the load
sensor input. The load sensor, if one is used, should be sized to handle your
application’s maximum expected load without exceeding 5 V.
