FIGURE 96. Power settings screen

The screen shown in Figure 96 is slightly different whether the Analog Input mode is selected or not.

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 be grayed-out 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 80 and “Analog Deadband Adjustment” on page 111.

2- Joystick Timing

These fields are enabled only if the R/C mode is selected. These number areas will let you read and modify the R/C pulse timing information used by the controller. New values can be entered manually to create different capture characteristics. They are also useful for viewing the stored values after an automatic joystick calibration sequence. See “Joystick Calibration” on page 81 and “Automatic Joystick Calibration” on page 82.
