First Log: New Controller
Here is a very quick log... can you all tell if something is off? Specifically, take a look at battery voltage at 100% throttle and output current... shouldn't the output be higher?

Re: First Log: New Controller
Your battery voltage seems a bit low at 0 throttle. 38.3 volts is too low. A 36 volt pack should be around 40-42 volts just sitting. Other than that everything looks ok.

Re: First Log: New Controller
Here is a log from someone on BU using the exact same controller...
Look at the output - albeit he may be running 48volts....... http://server1.buggiesunlimited.com/...&highlight=log TimeStamp,ThrottlePos,DiodeTemp,BatteryVoltage,Out putCurrent,BatteryCurrent,ErrorFlags 08/05/07 14:03:51.062 0,37.9,48.1,0.0,0.0,0x00 08/05/07 14:03:51.140 0,37.4,48.1,0.0,0.0,0x00 08/05/07 14:03:51.218 0,37.4,48.1,0.0,0.0,0x00 this is when i floored it! 08/05/07 14:04:08.828 29,37.4,44.3,330.0,97.1,0x00 08/05/07 14:04:08.906 36,37.9,42.6,405.0,147.7,0x00 08/05/07 14:04:09.000 43,37.9,40.9,485.0,207.3,0x00 08/05/07 14:04:09.078 50,37.4,39.0,530.0,264.0,0x00 08/05/07 14:04:09.171 58,37.9,37.1,575.0,331.5,0x00 08/05/07 14:04:09.250 65,37.9,35.3,615.0,397.9,0x00 08/05/07 14:04:09.328 72,37.9,33.5,650.0,466.5,0x00 08/05/07 14:04:09.421 78,37.4,32.0,675.0,524.1,0x00 08/05/07 14:04:09.500 82,37.4,32.2,640.0,527.1,0x00 08/05/07 14:04:09.578 87,38.3,30.3,650.0,563.3,0x00 08/05/07 14:04:09.671 92,37.4,30.2,660.0,605.6,0x00 08/05/07 14:04:09.750 99,38.8,30.1,593.0,586.0,0x00 and to add, that the battery was near being dead |
Re: First Log: New Controller
The output is fine...it will only draw what you need. If you and your buddy go for a ride and log it the output amps will go up.
The controller only put out 220 or so amps because thats all the motor needed at the time. Go pull a steep hill and log it and you will see what I mean. |
Re: First Log: New Controller
Not claiming to be an expert here but just wanted to clarify the situation here to see if it will stimulate some others. If I understood some of your othe threads this controller is not on the carts listed in your signature but for a brand new (2007) cart you are working on? Thought I read on here that the batteries take several charges to reach maximum efficiciency.

Re: First Log: New Controller
No - this controller is in the 2002 PDS with the relatively new Trojans.
Pulling a steep hill - the amps went well past 500.... I spent almost an hour with Alltrax... basically - they said that all systems were basically a go - and that the speeds were good. I tuned it a bit to their specs... Torque is the big gain here... 1 person in the cart on flat ground versus stock with a chip will be almost the same... 2 people are a completely different story. I need to get some more wheel time on this. I'll tell you something though -I see 48 volts in my crosshairs! |
