1.0 Overview

This is an overview of the Settings available via the Software Setup Utility or directly on the Cycle Analyst Console. Each interface displays settings in a slightly different order and each provides access to a few settings not available by the other. Certain settings can become irrelevant because of other configured settings. The CA hides many such irrelevant settings on the Console although they still show up in the Setup Utility.

3.0 SETTING DESCRIPTIONS

A setting title ending with an asterisk (*) indicates that the setting can be uniquely customized for each preset or battery. Settings without an asterisk are global and apply to all presets.

3.** Development (Internal Use Only)

[ Devl->InclFilter ]*
Chooser to select inclinometer filter sample weight. The sample weight determines the filter time constant (time for filter output to achieve a new input sample value). Options show sample weight and filter time constant.

• Off - Disable inclinometer filter.

• 1.6% (1.2s)

• 3.1% (0.6s) - [Default]

• 6.3% (0.3s)

• 12.5% (0.15s)

• 25.0% (0.08s)

• 50.0% (0.04s)

[ Devl->AcclFilter ]*
Chooser to select vehicle acceleration filter sample weight. The sample weight determines the filter time constant (time for filter output to achieve a new input sample value). Options show sample weight and filter time constant.

• Off - Disable acceleration filter.

• 0.8% (2.3s)

• 1.6% (1.2s)

• 25.0% (0.08s)

• 50.0% (0.04s)

[ Devl->AccelSpan ]*
Chooser to select period in msec over which to calculate vehicle acceleration.

[ Devl->AniPeriod ]
Combined ON/OFF period of the animation clock in main loop cycles. This clock rate drives all animation on all screens (blinking, alternating field values, etc).

Adjust by examining the Throttle Fault voltage animation on the Diagnostics screen or the 'mercury' of the temperature limiting thermometer on the Main Screen. Set to the minimum value such that the ON state of blinking pixels is dark with good contrast. There is slight interaction with AlertOff which alters the ON/OFF ratio of the overall period.

[ Devl->AlertOff ]
The OFF period of high priority blinking 'alerts' in main loop cycles. These animations do not necessarily have equal ON/OFF times - the OFF period is only to draw attention.

Adjust by examining the Throttle Fault voltage animation on the Diagnostics screen, the 'mercury' of the temperature limiting thermometer, or the blinking autocruise throttle slider. Set to the minimum value such that the OFF state of blinking pixels is clearly visible.

[ Devl->50HzFilter ]
Chooser to enable/disable accelerometer internal 50Hz low pass filter.

3.1 Speedometer

[ Spdo->Circumf ]
Exact wheel circumference in mm. The table below shows typical values for common tire sizes. A more accurate value can had by placing a dot of paint on the tire, riding forward one or more tire rotations, and measuring the distance on the road between dots.


Tire Size	Circumf (mm)	Tire Size	Circumf (mm)	Tire Size	Circumf (mm)
16 x 1.50	1185	24 x 2.125	1965	26 x 2.25	2115
16 x 1-3/8	1282	26 x 1-1/8	1970	26 x 2.35	2131
20 x 1.75	1515	26 x 1-3/8	2068	700c x 23	2097
20 x 1-3/8	1615	26 x1-1/2	2100	700c x 28	2136
24 x 1-1/4	1905	26 x 1.5	1995	700c x 32	2155
24 x 1.75	1890	26 x 1.75	2035	700c x 38	2180
24 x 2.00	1925	26 x 2.0	2075	700c x 2.0	2273

[ Spdo->Units ]
Select to use units of kilometers or miles. Changing this setting will not rescale existing distance-related values such as odometer, speed limits etc.

[ Spdo->Spd Signal ]
Select to determine signal source for speed/distance computations. Changing this setting clears the 'Bad Interrupt' count.

• Motor Speed: Use SPEED signal from CA-WP cable which is derived from controller phase signal. This is the default plug and play solution for direct drive motors.

• RB1 Speed: Use alternate signal from PCB connector J12 pin 2 (port B1).

[ Spdo->#Poles ]
The number of pulses on the Spd input that is considered one full wheel revolution. For direct drive (DD) hub motors using a CA-DP device, pole count is the number of magnet pole pairs in the hub (usually between 8 to 26). Geared motors with an internal speed sensor typically have 6 pulses per revolution and can also use a CA-DP device.

Mid-drive motors or geared motors without an internal speed sensor require a CA-DPS device with external speed sensor. The pole count is the number of magnets on the wheel (usually 1). Additional wheel magnets can be added for better low speed control.

The table below gives values for common DD motors. The number of poles can be determined by rotating the wheel slowly one complete revolution. The pole count is the number of times the arrow next to 'P' on the SETUP SPDOMETER screen flips DOWN then UP.


Motor Family	# Poles
Crystalyte 400, Wilderness Energy	8
Crystalyte 5300, 5400	12
TDCM IGH	16
Crysatlyte NSM, SAW	20
Crystalyte H, Crown, Nine Continent, MXUS, and most generic 205mm DD motors	23
Magic Pie 3 and other 273mm DD Motors	26

3.2 Battery

[ Batt->Batteries? ]
Chooser to select one battery (A) or two batteries (A & B)

• Batt A only: Only one battery pack is configured

• Batts A&B: Allows selection between two different battery packs. Battery statistics are maintained separately for each and the selected battery can be changed at any point by tapping the left console button while the right button is held down.

[ Batt->A or B ]
Chooser to select the battery pack presently installed (A or B).

[ Batt->Chemistry ]*
Chooser to select the cell chemistry of the present battery pack:

• Li-ion: Lithium Ion, which includes various chemistries such as Li Manganese, Li Cobalt, etc. This option encompasses almost all the common 18650 style rechargeable lithium batteries. They have a somewhat steady drop from 4.2V down to 3.6V and then a more rapid fall off to 3.0V.

• LiPo: Lithium Polymer, a standard ebike grade cell used in many lightweight lower-end lithium ebike battery packs. This has an almost linear voltage drop from 4.2V to 3.0 V / cell.

• RCLiP: high 'C' discharge rate Lithium Polymer batteries used in R/C vehicles and similar. These chemistries have less voltage drop during discharge, going flat at about 3.5V rather than the 3.0V of most ebike LiPo.

• LiFe:Lithium Iron Phosphate, used in PING and A123 packs. These cells have a lower voltage than other types of lithium. They fully charge to 3.6V / cell and remain constant between 3.3 to 3.2V / cell over most of the discharge.

• SLA: Sealed Lead Acid, the properties are more or less the same for other types of lead acid pack. Full charge at about 2.25V/cell and going totally flat around 1.9V.

• NiMH: Nickel Metal Hydride; use this option for Nickel Cadmium (NiCad) as well. These cells have a nominal voltage of 1.2V. They were common in ebikes during the 2000's but have since been almost entirely replaced with lithium.

[ Batt->String# ]*
This is the number of cells connected in series to make the battery pack which defines the nominal battery voltage. This setting is essential for the battery SOC icon to correctly show the charge level. The table below shows the series cell count for common nominal battery voltages.


Chemistry	24V Nominal	36V Nominal	48V Nominal	52V Nominal	72V Nominal
Li-ion, LiPo	7	10	13	14	20
LiFe	8	12	15/16	16	24
SLA	12	18	24	-	36
NiMH	20	30	40	-	60

[ Batt->Capacity ]*
Capacity of the battery pack in amp-hours. This setting is used to improve the accuracy of the battery fuel gauge display while drawing current. For lithium and nickel chemistries, the nominal advertised Ah is generally correct. With SLA, you should take the Peukert effect into account, and scale the rated Ah down by 30-35%. For instance, a 12Ah SLA has a useful capacity closer to 8Ah.

[ Batt->Vlt Cutoff ]*
Low voltage rollback. When the CA detects the battery voltage falling below VltCutoff, it will gradually scale back the power draw to prevent the voltage from dropping lower. This protects lead acid batteries from sulfation, nickel batteries from cell reversals, and with BMS protected lithium batteries it can keep the battery above the BMS trip point to prevent the battery from abruptly shutting down.

Cutoff voltage per cell varies by chemistry and application; 2.9 to 3.2 V/cell is typical for lithium ion batteries although many users set a higher cutoff to limit how far they drain their pack. The table below shows VltCutoff range for common nominal pack voltages, and applies equally well to lithium, lead, and nickel batteries.


Nominal Pack Voltage	Suggested VltCutoff
24V	19-21V
36V	30-32V
48V	39-42V
52V	42-45V
72V	60-64V

Please note that the VltCutoff is not a substitute for a BMS circuit on DIY lithium packs, as the CA does not have awareness of individual cell voltages and cannot detect cell balance issues or shorts.

[ Batt->LoVGain ]
The feedback gain setting for the low voltage rollback. A higher number results in the power scaling back more abruptly when voltage falls below the VltCutoff.

[ Batt->Volts Disp ]
Chooser to select whether the main CA screen displays just the battery pack voltage or alternates between pack voltage and average cell voltage. The average cell voltage is not measured but is computed as (pack voltage)/(number of cells).

3.3 Throttle IN

[ ThrI->Cntrl Mode ]*
Chooser determining how the user throttle affects controller operation

• Pass-Thru: User throttle is linearly mapped from the input throttle range to the output throttle range, with throttle rate limiting applied if necessary. Throttle behavior is similar to having the throttle directly connected to the motor controller. [Default]

• Current (A): User throttle controls the battery current from zero up to the value in MaxCurrent. This mode provides for better modulation of motor power over the entire speed range. When using this mode, MaxCurrent should be set equal to or lower than the controller current limit.

• Speed (kph): User throttle directly controls the speed of the bike from 0 to the value in MaxSpeed. This mode can be useful for special projects but is not a recommended for most ebike scenarios as small throttle motions can result in large pulses of power as the bike attempts to track the changes.

• Power (W): User throttle controls the power to the motor controller from 0 to the value in MaxPower. The effect is very similar to Current Throttle mode, but provides a response that is insensitive to battery voltage sag. When using this mode MaxPower should be set equal to or lower than the battery voltage times the controller current limit.

• Disabled (ZERO): This mode ignores the input throttle and sets the output throttle signal low. The output can then only go high if you have one of the PAS modes enabled and are pedaling. You can achieve the same thing by simply unplugging the operator throttle, but this option can be useful if you want swap between different presets with and without active throttle modes.

• Disabled (WOT): This mode ignores the input throttle and sets the output throttle signal to MaxThrottle unless one of the limits is exceeded. This mode provides legacy support when using a V3 CA on an old controller designed for the original CA V2 connector standard. Controllers with this old standard can only limit an external throttle signal from the CA plug, they cannot use the CA plug as the primary throttle input.
  
  IMPORTANT: Do not select this mode if the CA V3 output is connected to a CA3 compatible controller since the CA will immediately apply full throttle on power-up causing the bike to run away.

• Bypass: This mode is the equivalent of connecting the throttle directly to the controller to completely eliminate the CA from motor/controller behavior. This differs from PassThru mode in that ThrIN is sent directly to ThrOUT with no processing whatsoever: no min/max range adjustments, no ramping, no limiting, and no autocruise or PAS support.
  
  IMPORTANT: This is only a diagnostic mode and is not intended for normal ebike use. All normal CA protections are inoperative (e.g. low voltage, max current).

[ ThrI->Zero Thrsh ]
Voltage threshold for the lower bound of the input throttle (ZERO throttle). The throttle is considered OFF when the input throttle signal is less than this setting. The threshold should be set at least 0.1V higher than the actual input throttle voltage when the throttle is OFF. If set too close to the actual minimum voltage signal, electrical noise can make it appear that the throttle is briefly open and so cause the CA to disengage autocruise or briefly disable PAS output resulting in momentary power loss.

To optimize this setting, zero the throttle, examine the voltage shown on the 'SETUP THROT IN' screen, and add at least 0.1V.

[ ThrI->Full Thrsh ]
Voltage threshold for the upper bound of the input throttle (FULL throttle). The throttle is considered at FULL when the input throttle signal is greater than this setting. The threshold should be set at least 0.1V lower than the maximum input throttle voltage to ensure 100% throttle is available even if there is voltage drift.

To optimize this setting, open the throttle fully, examine the voltage shown on the 'SETUP THROT IN' screen, and subtract at least 0.1V.

[ ThrI->FaultThrsh ]
Sets the throttle input voltage fault detection threshold. If the throttle signal input is higher than FaultThrsh the CA will assume there is a throttle fault and immediately reduce the output throttle signal to MinOut. This type of input fault is typical if there is a break or disconnection of the throttle ground wire while the 5V and Signal are still attached. This setting should be at least 0.15V higher than the maximum operator throttle voltage. If it is too close, there may be erroneous throttle fault errors from electrical noise and drift. The default is 4.35V.

[ ThrI->Auto Cruis ]*
Autocruise is a form of cruise control that automatically maintains a fixed throttle level. Holding the throttle steady for the configured time causes the throttle slider on the main screen to flash indicating that autocruise is engaged and the throttle can be released. That throttle level is maintained until autocruise is disengaged by braking or re-applying the throttle.

• Off: Auto Cruise Mode is Disabled
• 2 Sec: Auto Cruise will engage after 2 seconds
• 3 Sec: Auto Cruise will engage after 3 seconds
• 4 Sec: Auto Cruise will engage after 4 seconds
• 5 Sec: Auto Cruise will engage after 5 seconds
• 6 Sec: Auto Cruise will engage after 6 seconds
• 8 Sec: Auto Cruise will engage after 8 seconds

IMPORTANT: Normal autocruise behavior maintains power after the throttle is released which can be alarming if unexpected. Ensure all riders are thoroughly acquainted with autocuise operation before enabling this feature.

[ ThrI->Cruise Hld ]
Sets the throttle voltage range for auto cruise to consider the throttle 'stationary'. Small numbers are more sensitive and can make engaging autocruise difficult. Large values reduce motion sensitivity but can cause unintended autocruise engagement.

3.4 Throttle OUT

[ ThrO->Min Out ]
This is the voltage or pulse width sent to the controller for ZERO rider throttle. It should be about 0.2V below the actual voltage where the motor controller starts to respond. The default value of 1.0V is fine for most setups, but if the controller does not start turning the motor until 1.4 or 1.5V from the CA, then the Min Out setting could be increased to ~1.2-1.3V for a faster throttle response with less deadband.

[ ThrO-> Max Out ]
This is the voltage or pulse width sent to the controller for FULL rider throttle. Most ebike controllers will achieve full output between 3.5 to 3.9V on the throttle, and the CA3's Max Out should be at least 0.1V higher than this to achieve full power.

NOTE: Many controllers have a throttle overvoltage fault similar to ThrI->FaultThrsh. The CA3's Max Out must be lower than this controller fault or the controller will shut off at full throttle.

[ ThrO->Down Rate ]
Determines the maximum rate at which the throttle output can ramp downwards. For safety reasons you would generally leave this at a high value so that the system can shut off promptly, but there can be times where a slower disengagement of motor power is preferred. Values of 4 to 8 V/sec are recommended. Ebrakes cut power immediately and are unaffected by this setting.

[ ThrO->Up Rate ]*
Determines the maximum rate at which the throttle output can ramp upwards once current greater than FastThrsh is detected. This setting is popular for smoothing out the harsh kick on powerful systems. A lower value in V/sec will result in a longer time for the throttle to ramp up and results in a more gentle application of power. Values of 0.5 to 3 V/sec are recommended.

[ ThrO->PAS Rate ]
Determines the maximum rate at which the throttle output can ramp upwards when engaging in PAS mode. This can be used to achieve a smooth PAS power application while still allowing for a fast response with the throttle. Operation is otherwise as with UpRate.

[ ThrO->Fast Rate ]
Determines the maximum rate at which the throttle output can ramp upwards when controller current is less than FastThrsh. When current reaches FastThrsh, the rate becomes governed by UpRate or PASRate. This dual rate approach allows the Throttle output to quickly reach a level that starts having a measurable effect on the motor before then dropping to the normal Up or PAS rate limit. This eliminates time lag for a ramped throttle output to catch up with the bike when you apply the throttle and are already moving. Values of 3-8 V/sec are recommended for controllers that have an immediate response. For controllers with built-in ramping (such as eZee), or sensorless controllers that have a startup routine delay, a lower FastRate rate may be required to prevent overshoot.

[ ThrO->Fast Thrsh ]
Determines the threshold controller current at which the CA's output ramp switches from FastRate to UpRate or PASRate. This setting should be quite low for direct drive hub motors, such as 1-2A. However, for gear motors or mid-drives, the setting should be a bit higher than the no-load current required to accelerate the motor from stopped, typically 2 to 4 Amps. A value of 0A disables FastRate so only UpRate or PASRate is applied.

[ ThrO->Outpt Mode ]
Selects between a steady analog voltage output on the CA Throttle Output line or a 1-2ms RC servo style pulse output. Almost all ebike and EV controllers operate off a voltage throttle signal, while the R/C pulse mode enables the CA to control compact ESCs from the hobby industry.

3.5 Speed Limits

[ SLim->Max Speed ]*
Upper speed limit. The CA rolls back throttle output voltage whenever speed exceeds this setting.
OEM->AbsMaxSpeed determines the maximum value for this setting.

[ SLim->Strt Speed ]*
The minimum starting speed that must be reached before the CA will allow power application. This is useful for RC drives or systems with sensorless controllers that do not work well from a dead start. The rider must pedal the bike up to StrtSpeed before power is applied.

[ SLim->MxNoPdlSpd ]*
The maximum speed at which the throttle will apply power without pedaling in any PAS mode. This feature supports European pedalec legislation which requires pedaling the bike for motor power, but which provides exemption below a certain speed (e.g. 6kph) in which case use of a throttle without pedaling is permitted. Applies only if a PAS device is installed.

[ SLim->IntSGain ]
Integral (I) feedback gain for the speed PID control loop. Lower values give smoother control and less likelihood of hunting, but can increase the time it takes for the speed limit to stabilize. This adjusts the correction for accumulated 'past' speed error.

[ SLim->PSGain ]
Proportional (P) feedback term for the speed PID control loop and displayed in terms of Volts / (mph or kph). If set to 0.5V/kph, the throttle output will immediately drop by 0.5V for each km/hr the bike exceeds the set speed limit. This adjusts the correction for the 'present' speed error.

[ SLim->DSGain ]
Differential (D) feedback term for the speed PID control loop. This is used to dampen speed oscillations by determining the ability of the CA to scale back power in anticipation of breaching the speed limit due to acceleration towards that limit. Values in the 100-300 range seem to work well, but lower values are often required for vehicles capable of hard acceleration. This adjusts the correction for 'future' anticipated speed errors.

[ SLim->Regen Lmtg ]
Chooser to select if Speed Limiting should use regenerative braking to help control the maximum speed.

• Disable: Speed is limited exclusively by reducing power. Above the speed limit the motor power is reduced to zero, but regenerative braking is not applied allowing the rider to continue to coast or pedal above this speed limit. [Default]

• Enable: Regenerative braking is used to enforce the speed limit setpoint. This means that regen may engage automatically when descending hills even without the rider applying the ebrakes. Proportional throttle regen (EBk->PropRegen) need not be enabled. This feature requires a controller with 0.0 - 0.8V throttle regen function (e.g. Grinfineon or Phaserunner).

3.6 Power Limits

[ PLim->Max Current ]*
Sets the CA current limit in Amps, commonly used to reduce stress on the battery pack or limit the available system power. This value may be further scaled down by one or more of the throttle, the Analog/Digital Aux inputs, or temperature limits. This setting can be left at the default high value if no CA current limiting is desired, but if either thermal rollback or aux / throttle amp adjustments are active, then MaxCurrent should be set equal to the controller battery current limit. OEM->AbsMaxAmps determines the maximum value for this setting.

[ PLim->Max Power ]*
Sets the CA power limit in watts. It has very similar effect as a current limit, except that the resulting power does does not change with variations in battery voltage. This is typically set to no more than the battery voltage times the smaller of the controller current limit or the continuous current rating of the battery. This setting determines the 100% power setting for Power Throttle or Aux Input power scaling. If neither of those features are used, this setting can be left at the maximum value. OEM->AbsMaxPower determines the maximum value for this setting.

[ PLim->AGain ]
Feedback gain for the current control loop. This affects the current limiting response and can have a noticeable effect on throttle behavior when operating in Current Throttle mode. If this setting needs adjustment, increase it until current limiting begins to be rough or oscillating and then reduce the setting by about 30%.

[ PLim->WGain ]
Feedback gain for the power control loop. This affects the CA's response in any power limit mode, which includes Power Throttle and most of the PAS modes, even if the normal Max Power limit is not in play.

If this setting is too high, the system may be prone to surging and oscillation while maintaining constant power, while too low of a value can result in a sluggish response. Typical values for well behaved WGain are 8-25.

3.7 PAS Device

[ PASD->Sensr Type ]
Chooser to select the type of PAS sensor installed.

• Disabled: There is no PAS device installed. This deactivates all PAS functionality and makes SLim->MxNoPdlSpd inoperative.

• Basic PAS: The sensor is a simple cadence sensor, which provides pulses when the cranks are pedaled. Both 1 wire (only pulses with fwd pedaling) and 2 wire (quadrature signals) are supported.

• Row Bike: The sensor is a simple cadence wheel for a rowing bike, with signals to distinguish forward and reverse motion. Rather than computing the RPM based on rotation speed, the CA instead displays the strokes per minute based on how often there is a direction reversal of the cadence wheel.

• Custm TRQ: The sensor is a custom torque device type requiring user configuration of these other settings in this category:

  • PASD->PASPoles
  • PASD->SignlType
  • PASD->DirPlrty
  • PASD->TrqScale
  • PASD->ZeroTorq

  Only this torque sensor type allows adjustment of these settings via Setup Utility.

• Thun BB:
• TDCM BB:
• NCTE BB:
• Sempu BB:
• CyclStokr:
  These selections identify known torque sensor types. They cause the CA to initialize other settings in this category with preconfigured defaults to yield proper device operation without detailed user configuration. Existing values for these initialized settings in the CA or in Setup Utility are discarded:
  
  • PASD->PASPoles
  • PASD->SignlType
  • PASD->DirPlrty
  • PASD->TrqScale
  • PASD->ZeroTorq

  Any of the preconfigured defaults may be subsequently modified by the user. The 'known' torque sensor type remains as selected unless a preconfigured setting is subsequently modified in the CA; doing so automatically changes the sensor type to 'Custm TRQ'.

  Note: To modify preconfigured settings of 'known' torque sensor types using Setup Utility, first configure the known type and write settings to the CA. Read the settings back to Setup Utility to get the preconfigured values and change PASD->SensrType to 'Custm TRQ'. The preconfigured values can now be modified for subsequent write to the CA.

  Note: The Sempu BB is manufactured with two different interface styles. The version selectable here has the '2-wire' interface distributed by Grin. Units from other vendors may require subsequently customizing PASD->SignlType to '1-wire' in CA Console Setup.

[ PASD->Trq Scale ]
Sets the scaling factor for converting torque sensor output voltage to newton meters. For devices that sense torque on only one side of the crank, the value should be doubled to simulate the net left and right pedal torques. The value can be set either positive or negative and is populated automatically when a known sensor type is selected. For TDCM Sensors, additional tuning is required and may be initially guesstimated as the number of teeth on the front chainring. So a 44T chainring would be about 44 Nm/V. This option is present only for torque sensor types.

[ PASD->Zero Torq ]
The configured zero-torque offset voltage and the present live torque voltage are displayed. The right button should be pressed with the pedals unloaded (zero torque) which configures a new zero-torque voltage from the present live torque voltage. This voltage is displayed when the button is released. Note that magnetostrictive torque sensors (like THUN and NCTE) don't return to the same zero point very well after high torque excursions. This option is present only for torque sensor types.

[ PASD->Signl Type ]
Both Basic PAS and Torque sensors generate a cadence signal pulse as the cranks are rotated. The signal may pulse only on forward pedal rotation with just a single wire, or it may also indicate direction of rotation which requires two wires.

This setting determines the number of input wires that carry cadence pulses so the CA can best use the available information. The type can be determined by examining the arrows next to the 'PD' on the SETUP PAS DEVICE preview screen as the crank is slowly turned. On a single wire sensor only the P arrow will changes, while on a 2 wire sensor both the P and D arrows will flip UP/DOWN.

• 1 Wire: Cadence pulses appear on the RPM input with no simultaneous change to the DIR input.

• 2 Wire: Quadrature encoded cadence pulses appear on both RPM and DIR inputs.

[ PASD->Dir Plrty ]
Controls whether 5V on the Dir pin is considered forward or reverse pedaling. If the Dir pin is not connected, then it should be set to 5V = Fwd. Trial and error tests may be required to find the proper FWD or REV setting if the device is quadrature encoded. This setting is populated automatically when a known sensor type is selected.

[ PASD->SensrPower ]
Chooser to select the power supply voltage for the PAS sensor. For safety, this setting is changed to 5 Volts: whenever PASD->SensrType is changed via CA Console Setup.

• 5 Volts: This is a common voltage for simple PAS wheel sensors and some torque sensors. It is the default and is a safe choice that cannot harm a sensor expecting a higher voltage.

• 11 Volts: This voltage is required by certain (torque) sensors.

IMPORTANT: Applying 11V to a 5V sensor may permanently damage it! Be absolutely certain of the exact device requirements before selecting the higher 11V option. Always verify this setting is at the lower 5V option BEFORE plugging in a 5V sensor device!

[ PASD->PAS Poles ]
Number of pulses generated in one full rotation of the pedal sensor. This is equal to the number of magnets on simple magnetic ring cadence wheels. For internal sensors it can be measured by counting the number of times the P arrow on the SETUP PAS DEVICE preview screen flips up and down during one pedal rotation. This setting is populated automatically when a known sensor type is selected, and must be set correctly for accurate display of human pedal RPM.

3.8 PAS Config

[ PAS->PAS Mode ]*
Chooser to select the pedal assist type. In all cases, assist is enabled only when the throttle is off, and is immediately overridden by throttle control if throttle is applied.

Basic (Pwr), and Torque modes use the Power PID controller to achieve constant power control to the motor. In these modes PLim->WGain may need adjustment to reduce assist oscillation or smooth power application.

• No Assist: No assist is provided of any kind. However, because a PAS device is installed, the SLim->MxNoPdlSpd setting has effect even in No Assist mode. This can be useful for simple sensor wheels in locales where regulation imposes a pedaling requirement to enable throttle operation, but where PAS assist is not desired. [Default]

• Basic (Pwr): When pedaling is detected with no applied throttle, the motor delivers a constant power assistance equal to the power configured by StrtLevel. This power level can be further modified to increase or decrease with pedal cadence according to the ScaleFctr setting.

• Basic (ThO): When pedaling is detected with no applied throttle, ThrOUT is set to 0-100% as configured by StrtLevel, and can be further scaled by ScaleFctr to increase or decrease with pedal RPM.

  This mode can be used instead of Basic (Pwr) mode with conventional controllers to have PAS level set the approximate cruising speed of the bike rather than the motor power. It can also be used to have cadence based control of motor torque with torque throttle controllers such as the Phaserunner.

• Torque: In this PAS mode, the motor power scales in proportion to the human power as measured by the torque sensor. The StrtLevel term sets the minimum pedal power required to start the electric assist, and the ScaleFctr sets how much each additional watt of human power is then multiplied by the motor.

[ PAS->Ctrl Mode ]*
Chooser to determine the scaling effect of any control configured for PAS adjustment. PAS assist has two components: a fixed 'Base Assist' which is applied whenever pedaling is detected and a variable 'Pedal Assist' that is derived from either the rider cadence in Basic Mode or rider cadence and torque in Torque mode. Manual controls (MFS, AuxA, or AuxD) can be configured to scale either or both of these components. An unscaled component is applied at the full value.

• Adj Base+Pedal (Std): This is the standard setting where both aspects of assistance are affected by PAS controls. This allows operation to be adjusted from completely unassisted 'bicycle mode' to full PAS mode.

• Adj Base Assist: Only the fixed Base Asst is scaled by PAS controls. The contribution due to rider pedaling and Scale Fctr is fully applied and is unaffected by controls. This mode offers greater direct control of an applied fixed assistance, particularly if Scale Fctr is set to zero or a low value.

• Adj Pedal Factor: Only the contribution due to rider pedaling and Scale Fctr is scaled by PAS controls. The fixed Base Asst is unaffected by controls. This causes the baseline assist to remain constant while the control regulates the pedaling-dependent assistance while underway. This can be useful to ensure consistant assistance for shiftless getaways independent of control settings.

[ PAS->Base Asst ]*
Sets the constant base assistance level applied whenever pedaling is detected with zero throttle. Assistance developed due to pedaling activity and the Scale Fctr setting is added to this value. Positive values can give a comfortable background assist or provide shiftless getaways. Negative values reduce assistance from pedaling scaled by Scale Fctr. For instance, a setting of -50W prevents any applied assistance until pedal-generated assistance exceeds 50W at which point the amount over 50W is applied. This can give a normal unassisted bicycle feel until greater pedaling effort causes assist to begin automatically.

The exact meaning of this setting depends on the PAS mode:

• Basic (Pwr) Sets the base assistance in terms of motor power.

• Basic (ThO) Sets the base assistance in terms of ThrOUT percentage. For most ebike controllers, this sets an effective percentage of the maximum vehicle speed under pedal assist. For torque throttle controllers, it allows PAS mode to control the motor torque output.

• Torque: Sets the base assistance in terms of motor power.

[ PAS->Scale Factr ]*
Sets the multiplier that proportionally determines assistance according to pedaling. This varying assitance is added to the constant base assistance configured by the Base Asst setting.

The meaning of this setting depends on the PAS mode:

• Basic (Pwr): Sets the multiplier determining applied motor power based on pedal cadence. Values between 5-20 W/RPM can provide a boost when downshifting and reduce the need for the rider to use manual control adjustments. Negative values can be used for single speed bikes to provide more power at low speeds and less as the rider speeds up. A setting of 0 has means that the output power is constant regardless of changes to pedal cadence.

• Basic (ThO): Sets the multiplier determining additional ThrOUT percentage based on pedal cadence. Recommended instead of Basic (Pwr) to achieve increased motor torque when downshifting with ebikes using a Phaserunner or other torque throttle controller.

• Torque: Sets the multiplier determining applied motor power based on applied human pedal power. For instance, a setting of 2.00 W/HW means the electrical motor watts will be double the applied human watts.

[ PAS->Grade Comp ]*
Chooser to determine the Grade Compensation mode. The Cycle Analyst will automatically adjust motor power to compensate for hills using the selected mode. This grade-compensating assistance is related only to the terrain and is distinct from other assistance arising from pedaling.

• None: Automatic Grade Compensation is disabled.

• Adjustable: Any control (MFS, AuxA, AuxD) configured to control PAS assistance also scales Grade Compensation according to the control setting. In this mode low control settings allow the rider to experience hills more naturally.

• Maximum: Whenever pedaling is detected, Grade Compensation is fully engaged and applies the unscaled maximum assistance to 'flatten' hills giving the illusion of a more mild terrain. This is the most aggressive compensation and some care should be given to tuning GradeFactr to avoid over-compensation.

  Pas controls have only a limited effect on Grade Compensation in this mode. The full proportional control scaling range (typically 0-100%) is compressed into the lowest 12% of the PAS control setting and remains at 100% for all higher adjustment. This eliminates any scaling effect for most control adjustment but allows the control to reduce or disable grade compensation at the very lowest setting(s).

[ PAS->Grade Factr ]*
Sets the proportional multiplier that determines the compensating assistance applied for each percentage point of terrain grade. For instance, a setting of 100 W/%Grade will add 100W of motor power for each rise of 1% grade. The final applied grade compensation is also determined according to GradeComp and DhillThrsh.

[ PAS->Dhill Thrsh ]*
Sets the downhill grade at which grade compensation begins to reduce other PAS assistance. In uphill situations, grade compensation is positive and always suppliments other PAS assistance. However, grade compensation is negative in downhill situations and reduces other PAS assistance for grades more negative than this setting. For instance, for a setting of -2%, PAS operates without grade compensation effect between 0 and -2.0% grade. However, at -5% grade, assistance is reduced by 3% times PAS->Grade Factr. Set this to 0 to always enable downhill compensation or to -30% to fully disable downhill compensation.

[ PAS->Asst Avg ]
Determines the amount of pedal rotation (in terms of the number of pulses) over which the torque signal is averaged. The human pedal torque undulates with each turn of the cranks so the signal must be averaged to prevent corresponding pulses of motor torque. Higher values yield smoother power assist at the cost of slower response to changes in pedal effort.

This should be a multiple PASPoles with sensors like the THUN which only measure torque on one side. It can be set in multiples of half pedal rotations for torque sensors that measure both left and right pedal force (eg TDCM). This setting is populated automatically when a known sensor type is selected.

[ PAS->Strt Thrsh ]
Sets the threshold minimum time between pedal sensing events to cause the CA to assume that the rider is 'pedaling' and activate motor assist. If set to a long period, assist will begin sooner when starting from a standstill, but there will also be a longer delay before the motor cuts out if pedaling stops within a single revolution.

Sensors with more poles give brisker response because the CA gets sensor pulses more quickly, and can use shorter threshold times.

[ PAS->Stop Thrsh ]
After the first complete crank revolution, sets the minimum time that must be maintained between pedal sensing events for the CA to assume that the rider is still pedaling. If the time between pedal events is longer than this threshold, the CA will assume that pedaling has stopped and will cease power assist. Short values result in a more immediate cutout in power, while longer values allow for pedal assist even at slow pedal speeds. Sensible values are usually between ' 0.5x-1.0x the StrtThrsh.

3.9 Temperature

[ Temp->Sensor ]
Chooser to select the type of installed temperature sensor.

• Disabled: Voltage on the NTC pin is ignored. [Default]

• Linear Type: The input voltage is scaled linearly into a temperature reading based on a custom scale and offset assuming a PTC (positive temperature coefficient) or silicon device.

• NTC10K B=3900: The input voltage is scaled into degrees Celsius assuming a 10K NTC thermistor with a beta constant of ~3900 (classic Grin temp sensor).

• NTC10K B=3450: The input voltage is scaled into degrees Celsius assuming a 10K NTC thermistor with a beta constant of ~3450 (new Grin temp sensor, Bafang motors).

[ Temp->0degC Volts ]
The sensor voltage at zero degrees. Only present if Linear Type is selected.

[ Temp->T Scale ]
The scaling factor in units of Deg/V for converting the sensor voltage into degrees. Only present if Linear Type is selected.

[ Temp->Thrsh Temp ]
The temperature at which thermal CA current limiting begins to be applied (i.e. 0% limiting).

[ Temp->Max Temp ]
The temperature at which the thermal rollback will have brought the CA current to 0 amps (i.e. 100% limiting). The current limit is scaled linearly from MaxCurrent to zero amps as the temperature increases from ThrshTemp to MaxTemp.

[ Temp->Temp Signl ]
Selects the signal source for temperature measurement.

• Motor Signal Ext: Use Motor Sig Ext (pin 8) of the CA-WP cable connector. This is the standard 'plug and play' motor temperature configuration for Grin motors.

• Alternate Temp Input: Use the custom temperature sensor input labelled 'Temp' on the CA PCB.

3.10 MultiFunction Switch

[ MFS->Function ]
Chooser to select the controlling effect of the MFS UP/DOWN buttons. Choices here are similar to those of the Aux Analog or Digital function selections.

• Off: The MFS UP/DOWN buttons are deactivated. [Default]

• PAS Level: The MFS applies a scaling factor to further reduce the pedal assist level. This is one of the most common uses for the Aux Input.

• Amps Lim: The MFS applies a scaling factor to further reduce the MaxCurrent limit.

• Power Lim: The MFS applies a scaling factor to further reduce the MaxPower limit.

• Speed Lim: The MFS applies a scaling factor to further reduce the MaxSpeed limit.

• ThrO Lim: The MFS applies a scaling factor to further reduce the ThrO->MaxOut voltage. This has the effect of limiting speed by a means that is easier to tune but less precise than true speed limiting.

[ MFS->Max Levels ]
Configures the number of levels from 1-32. Scaling range is [Min Prcnt] to 100% with equally spaced steps. For example, for steps of 0%, 10%, 20%, etc., select 11 steps (10 steps + 0%) with MinPrcnt=0. This setting is unavailable if the MFS function is 'Off'.

[ MFS->Min Prcent ]
Configures the percentage scaling of the lowest level (#1). For example, for three power levels of 40% 70% 100%, select MaxLevels=3 and MinPrcent=40%. This setting is unavailable if the MFS function is 'Off'.

[ MFS->Power On ]
Chooser to select the present level when the CA is powered up. This setting is unavailable if the MFS function is 'Off'.

• Last level: The CA will boot up with the same level that was active when it was powered down.

• Level #1: The CA will always default to the lowest level when it boots up.

3.11 Aux Analog

[ AuxA->Ctrl Type ]
Chooser to select the type of installed analog control.

• Pot: A 2k-10k potentiometer. This setting can also be used for DIY circuits that present varying voltages to the AuxPOT input.

• 2-Pos Sw: A 2 position switch that is configured to present a low and high signal voltage.

• 3-pos Sw: A 3 position switch that presents 3 different voltage levels to the Aux input. The standard Grin 3-position CA switch uses resistors to provide 1.6V, 2.5V, and 3.3V for switch positions 1, 2, and 3 respectively.

[ AuxA->Function ]
Chooser to select the controlling effect of the Analog Aux control. Choices are identical to those of the Aux Digital function selections but are mutually exclusive so that a selection made in one will be excluded from appearing as an option in the other.

• Off: The installed control remains configured but is deactivated. [Default]

• PAS Level: The Aux control applied a scaling factor to further reduce the pedal assist level. This is one of the most common uses for the Aux Input devices. If there is a cadence dependent term to the PAS output, the scaling applies to the final output including the RPM component.

• Amps Lim: The Aux control applies a scaling factor to further reduce the MaxCurrent limit.

• Power Lim: The Aux control applies a scaling factor to further reduce the MaxPower limit.

• Speed Lim: The Aux control applies a scaling factor to further reduce the MaxSpeed limit.

• ThrO Lim: The Aux control applies a scaling factor to further reduce the ThrO->MaxOut voltage. This has the effect of limiting speed by a means that is easier to tune but less precise than true speed limiting.

• Presets: The control selects the current preset. This option is displayed only if a 2-pos or 3-pos switch is installed; the associated preset count is automatically adjusted to match. This mode overrides the console button 'hot swap' capability as well as Prst->PowerOn.

[ AuxA->Lo Deadband ]
This option is present only for pots configured for a limiting function (non-Preset).

Specifies the voltage offset above the baseline voltage at which the pot will be considered to be at MINIMUM setting. This setting typically ranges from 0.1V to less than a volt and can be tuned to set the point where the potentiometer crosses 0%

[ AuxA->Med Sw Level ]
This option is present only for 3 position switches configured for a limiting function (non-Preset).

Specifies the percentage of the configured maximum limiting parameter (MaxCurrent, MaxPower, MaxSpeed) for the MEDIUM switch setting for 3 position switches. The HIGH setting is assumed to be 100%.

[ AuxA->Hi Deadband ]
This option is present only for potentiometer devices.

Specifies the voltage offset below 5V at which the pot will be considered to be at MAXIMUM setting. This setting typically ranges from 0V to less than a volt and can be tuned to reduce deadband. A proper setting shows a full rotation value of 99% that decreases shortly after the pot begins to be turned downward.

[ AuxA->Lo Sw Level ]
This setting is preset only for switches configured for a limiting function (non-Preset).

Specifies the percentage of the configured maximum limiting parameter (MaxCurrent, MaxPower, MaxSpeed) for the LOW switch setting for 2 or 3 position switches. The HIGH setting is assumed to be 100%.

3.12 Aux Digital

[ AuxD->Ctrl Type ]
Chooser to select the type of installed digital control. The voltages expected by the CA for analog Aux controls are strongly affected by the presence of an installed digital Aux control. It is important to configure the installed digital type even if the function is configured as 'Off'.

• None: No digital control is installed. [Default]

• 1-Btn: A one button control is installed. Such controls increase levels on every button push and reset to the lowest level on a push when in the highest level. A long push resets to level 0.

• 2-Btn: A two button control is installed. Such controls increase levels on every UP button push until the highest level is reached and decrease levels on every DOWN button push until the lowest level is reached. A long push on either button sets the level to the highest or lowest level respectively.

[ AuxD->Function ]
Chooser to select the controlling effect of the digital control. Choices here are identical to those of the Aux Analog function selections but are mutually exclusive so a selection made in one will be excluded from appearing as an option in the other. This option is not present if no AuxD device is installed.

• Off: The installed control remains configured but is deactivated. [Default]

• PAS Level: The Aux control applies a scaling factor to further reduce the pedal assist level. This is one of the most common uses for the Aux Input.

• Amps Lim: The Digital Aux control applies a scaling factor to further reduce the MaxCurrent limit.

• Power Lim: The Digital Aux control applies a scaling factor to further reduce the MaxPower limit.

• Speed Lim: The Digital Aux control applies a scaling factor to further reduce the MaxSpeed limit.

• ThrO Lim: The Aux control applies a scaling factor to further reduce the ThrO->MaxOut voltage. This has the effect of limiting speed by a means that is easier to tune but less precise than true speed limiting.

• Presets: The control selects the current preset. The console button 'hot swap' capability is unaffected and operates normally.

[ AuxD->Max Levels ]
Configures the number of levels from 1-32. Scaling range is [Min Prcnt] to 100% with equally spaced steps. For example, for steps of 0%, 10%, 20%, etc., select 11 steps (10 steps + 0%) with MinPrcnt=0. This option is not present if no AuxD device is installed or the function is 'Off'.

[ AuxD->Min Prcent ]
Configures the percentage scaling of the lowest level (#1). For example, for three power levels of 40% 70% 100%, select MaxLevels=3 and MinPrcent=40%. This option is not present if no AuxD device is installed or the function is 'Off'.

[ AuxD->Power On ]
Chooser to select the present level when the CA is powered up. This option is not present if no AuxD device is installed or the function is 'Off'.

• Last level: The CA will boot up with the same level that was active when it was powered down.

• Level #1: The CA will always default to the lowest level when it boots up.

3.13 eBrake

[ EBk->Brake Out ]
The CA Throttle OUT voltage when ebrakes are applied. This value must be less than
ThrO->MinOut [Default = 0]. Some controllers recognize values between 0V and ThrO->MinOut as a command to apply regen braking. For Grin controllers, regen braking increases from minimum to maximum in the range 0.8V - 0.0V respectively. Setting BrakeOut in this range selects the baseline regen brake intensity when ebrakes are applied, with values closer to 0V having more braking force and values closer to 0.8V having less braking force.

[ EBk->Min Time ]
This is the minimum time in seconds from the time of application that ebrakes are applied. This fixed minimum time will be extended if the ebrakes continue to be held ON. This feature facilitates mid-drive shifting by briefly removing motor power for a fixed period when tapping the brakes or using a gear shift sensor.

[ EBk->Signal Lvl ]
Chooser to select if a High or Low voltage on the EBk pin signals that brakes are applied. Almost all commercial ebrake sensors use Active Low signaling, but homemade sensors are often easier to design with Active High logic. Select so that the ebrake icon on the preview screen reflects the proper 'released/applied' ebrake condition.

[ EBk->Prop Regen ]
Chooser to select if proportional regen is active when ebrakes are applied.

• Disable: Throttle OUT voltage is set to Brake Out when ebrakes are applied. [Default]

• Enable: Throttle OUT voltage is set to Brake Out when ebrakes are applied and the rider throttle is ZERO. As the rider throttle is increased with ebrakes applied, the Throttle OUT voltage decreases from Brake Out to 0V to increase the proportional regen braking effect. All Grin controllers support this feature.

3.14 Calibration

[ Cal->Range ]
Chooser to select the shunt and current range. The Low range mode is appropriate for ebikes while the High range mode is intended for motorcycles and larger EVs. This affects the allowable shunt range and determines if power is displayed as W or kW.

• Lo (W): This mode is intended for systems with shunt sense resistors that are in the 1-9mOhm range. Current measurement resolution is 0.01A and power is shown in watts.

• Hi (kW): The high range mode is intended for high current systems that have shunts which are in the 0.1-0.9 mOhm range. All power units are shown in kW instead of W and the current measurement resolution is 0.1A. In addition, all current and power feedback calculations are also affected by the chosen range mode, so that an AGain setting of 50 in low range mode would be equivalent to 500 in the high range.

[ Cal->RShunt ]
This setting calibrates CA current measurement. The CA is only as accurate as the calibration value for the current sense shunt resistor. Most controllers with direct plug-in CA connectors have resistances in the 1.5-6 mOhm range and the Stand Alone CA shunts are 1.00 mOhm. Specifications of high current shunts used in larger EV's are not typically rated by shunt resistance but instead indicate the current draw that causes a 50mV drop. For example, a 200A 50mV shunt has a resistance of 50mV/200A = 0.25mOhm.

[ Cal->Zero Amps ]
This setting calibrates the CA zero current measurement and should be adjusted if the resting current shown in the CA screen is something other than 0 amps. The live voltages on the Lo and Hi gain current amplifiers are displayed. Pressing the right button sets the 'Zero Amps' offset from the present live amperage measurement. After releasing the button the new Lo and Hi voltage offsets are displayed. They should both be around 2.5V.

[ Cal->VScale ]
This setting calibrates CA voltage measurement. The factory calibration is about 31V/V using the CA internal voltage divider. If an external divider is employed, then VScale must be adjusted to match the voltage scaling ratio.

3.15 Presets

[ Prst->Preset Cnt ]
Chooser to select the number of available presets.

• Only 1: Only a single preset is available. The console preset 'Hot Swap' cannot change presets. [Default]

• 1&2 En: Allows selection of one of two distinct sets of CA limit, PAS, and throttle settings.

• 1,2&3: Allows selection of one of three distinct CA limit, PAS, and throttle settings.

[ Prst->Preset Name ]*
Chooser to select one of several fixed names for each preset. The name does not automatically preload any settings, you must create a set of settings that suits the given name.

[ Prst->Power On ]
Chooser to select the active preset when the CA is powered up.

• Last Preset: The CA will boot up with the same preset that was active when it was powered down.

• Preset #1: The CA will boot up with preset #1.

[ Prst->Import #1 ]
All per-preset tings from preset #1 are copied into the present preset. This is an optional display that will not appear if the active preset is #1.

[ Prst->Import #2 ]
All per-preset settings from preset #2 are copied into the present preset even if #2 is not selectable. This allows a preset to be defined as a 'default' to initialize other lower numbered presets but not be selectable for modification. This is an optional display that will not appear if the active preset is #2.

[ Prst->Import #3 ]
All per-preset settings from preset #3 are copied into the present preset even if #3 is not selectable. This allows a preset to be defined as a 'default' to initialize other lower numbered presets but not be selectable for modification. This is an optional display that will not appear if the active preset is #3.

[ Prst->Crnt Prset ]
Selects which of the possible presets is currently active. This screen is displayed only if either two or three mode presets are enabled.

3.16 Display

[ Disp->Cust Views ]
Chooser to select which of the custom data views will be sequentially displayed in the upper right of the Main Screen. Each item is listed in sequence with a brief description and checkbox.

• 00 - mi/km
• 01 - Ah
• 02 - Wh
• 03 - Wh/km (trip)
• 04 - Wh/km (instantaneous)
• 05 - degC
• 06 - degC (display only if temp greater than ThrshTemp - 5 degC)
• 07 - Crank RPM
• 08 - Human Watts
• 09 - ThO V
• 10 - AX - AuxA limit {A, kph, W, PAS(W or %ThO)
• 11 - DX - AuxD limit {A, kph, W, PAS(W or %ThO)

• 14 - Count of Speed interrupts on wrong edge

[ Disp->Main Disp ]
Chooser to select 'Amps' or 'Watts' for display on the lower left of the Main Status screen.

[ Disp->Auto Main ]
Chooser to enable/disable automatic display of the Main Screen after a fixed period of Console Button inactivity. This feature allows the console to be advanced to other screens without the need to manually return to the Main Screen - the CA will do so automatically after about 12 seconds. Still and Moving flags are honored so that either Main or the next right unmasked screen is displayed. Viewing another sceen before the delay has expired resets the timer to begin again.

[ Disp->Adjmt Disp ]
Chooser to select the main screen display mode when making limiting adjustments using MFS, AuxA, or AuxD manual controls. The new limit value can be shown either with the transient pop-up 'Aux Change' screen or more discretely in the top right corner the custom field. This option affects only the main screen - the pop-up always appears for other display screens.

[ Disp->Stop Scrns ]
[ Disp->Movn Scrns ]
Choosers to select which of the status display screens are accessible when the vehicle is stopped or moving. Each screen is listed in sequence with a brief description and checkbox. The vehicle is considered 'moving' if the speed sensor shows activity or if the motor current exceeds (+|-) 1 Amp (i.e. under power or regen).

• 01 - Main Screen
• 02 - V, W, A, Ah
• 03 - HWatts,rpm
• 04 - Wh/km
• 05 - Avg Human Stats

• 07 - AMax, VMin
• 08 - Max, Avg Spd
• 09 - Cur, Max, Avg Temp
• 10 - Odometer
• 11 - Rbatt, Cycles
• 12 - Diagnostics

3.17 Miscellaneous

[ Misc->DspAvging ]
Chooser to select the time period for averaging consecutive measurements for smoother display of Volts, Amps and Watts. Low values result in near instantaneous screen readings but they may fluctuate too fast to be clearly viewed. High values result in a very steady display that slightly lags actual measurement changes. This setting only affects data display; internal computations always use immediate measurements.

[ Misc->Data Rate ]
Chooser to select either 1Hz or 10Hz data output rate for data logging. The 10Hz rate shows more interesting vehicle dynamics at the cost of large data files.

[ Misc->Defaults ]
Chooser to save or restore all settings from a protected non-editable region of memory.

• Cancel: Skip operation. [Default]

• Save: All EEPROM settings are copied to the protected region. Existing saved 'default' settings are overwritten.

• Restore: All settings from the protected region are copied to EEPROM as the present editable CA settings. All existing settings EXCEPT lifetime statistics are overwritten. This restore operation can also be be invoked from an option screen brought up by a very long right button press on any status screen (continue to press after the Reset option appears).

[ Misc->ZeroAngle ]
Selects the number of degrees of forward/backward console angle when the bike is on level ground. Normally set 'live' from the Grade Screen with a long right press.

3.18 Statistics

[ Stat->TotDist ]
Lifetime vehicle odometer.

[ Stat->TotCyc ]*
Total lifetime charge cycles on the (A) or (B) battery pack. This is actually the number of Trip Resets and so assumes that the CA was reset after each full recharge.

[ Stat->TotWhrs ]*
Total lifetime Watt-hours pulled from the (A) or (B) battery pack. Note that when upgrading from CA3.0 to CA3.1 firmware, the lifetime amp-hour statistics will be automatically converted into units of watt-hours based on the assumed nominal battery voltage from the battery settings.

3.19 OEM Settings

[ OEM->Abs Max Amps ]
Max configurable speed limit. This setting determines the highest current (Amps) value that can be configured. A user cannot use Console Setup to raise any current setting above this value.

[ OEM->Abs Max Power ]
Max configurable speed limit. This setting determines the highest power (Watts) value that can be configured. A user cannot use Console Setup to raise any power setting above this value.

[ OEM->Abs Max Speed ]
Max configurable speed limit. This setting determines the highest speed (mph/kph) value that can be configured. A user cannot use Console Setup to raise any speed setting above this value.
