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.

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.

FIGURE 105. Power settings screen

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.
