support engineer to resolve any issues about the interlock before continuing
with the setup procedure.
Once you have verified the interlock is off, you can set up the throttle
input. The Throttle Type parameter must be set to match the type of throttle
(1–5) and wiring that you are using, as described on pages 13–17. Adjust the
Forward Deadband, Forward Max, Reverse Deadband and Reverse Max param-
eters to match the range of your throttle. The Throttle Pot value displayed on
the Monitor
» Inputs menu (page 64) is useful when setting up these parameters.
For the forward and reverse directions, read the displayed throttle pot voltage
at the point when the throttle moves out of neutral and at the point just before
full throttle and enter these values for the deadband and max settings for that
direction. Set up the other parameters in the Throttle Menu as required by
the application.
You will be able to verify that your throttle settings are correct by
checking the Mapped Throttle value displayed in the Monitor » Inputs menu
(page 64) over the entire range of throttle pot movement. The value displayed
for Mapped Throttle should be = 0% through the range of throttle motion
that is considered neutral. The displayed Mapped Throttle should be = 100%
through the range of motion that is considered forward throttle max and should
be = -100% through the range considered reverse throttle max. Contact your
Curtis customer support engineer to resolve any issues about the throttle setup
before continuing with the setup procedure.
8 Brake (see page 45)
If the brake function is not used by your application, set the Brake Enable
parameter = Off and Brake Type = 5.
Before the brake can be set up the interlock must be verified as Off, by
reading the Interlock value displayed in the Monitor » Inputs menu (page 64).
If the 1311 indicates the interlock is On, review how you set the Interlock
Type parameter (Main Contactor Menu) and turn the interlock off. Verify
that the 1311 Monitor Menu displays that the interlock is now Off. Contact
your Curtis customer support engineer to resolve any issues about the interlock
before continuing with the setup procedure.
Once you have verified that the interlock is off, you can set up the brake
input. The Brake Type parameter must be set to match the type of brake throttle
(1, 2, 3, 5) and wiring that you are using, as described on pages 13–17. Adjust
the Brake Deadband and Brake Max parameters to match the range of your brake
pot. The Brake Pot value displayed in the Monitor
» Inputs menu (page 64) is
useful when setting up these parameters. Read the displayed brake pot voltage
at the point when the brake moves out of neutral and at the point just before
full brake and enter in these values for the deadband and max settings. Set up
the other parameters in the Brake Menu as required by the application.
You will be able to verify that your brake settings are correct by checking
the Mapped Brake value displayed in the Monitor » Inputs menu (page 64)
over the entire range of brake pot movement. The value displayed for Mapped
Brake should be = 0% through the range of brake pot motion that is considered
