Bafang throttle settingsLink

Accessible from menu Bafang Throttle

ButtonsLink

Initialize - Reads all Bafang Basic/Pedal/Throttle settings at once. After this procedure both Road/OffRoad would have identical settings.

Road or OffRoad - switch between profiles.

Read controller - reads controller Throttle settings.

Info - provides information for the Bafang switch mode.

Write - writes the Throttle settings to controller. If the operation is successful it updates the settings on the display as well.

BASICLink

Designated AssistLink

The value of the assist power level.

If set to Display command the assist level shown on the display would be considered.

Disable Throttle AssistLink

  1. Set Designated Assist to 0
  2. Configure Assist Levels in Bafang basic settings page
  3. For Assist 0 set Limited Current(%) = 0 and Limited Speed = 0. In some cases value 1 should be set
  4. Your Throttle assist should no longer work

Enable Throttle Assist - PAS dependentLink

  1. Set Designated assist to Display Command
  2. Configure Assist Levels in Bafang basic settings page
  3. Set desired values for Limited Current(%) and Limited Speed for Assist 1 - 9
  4. Your Throttle assist should be limited based on the PAS level you see on display

Enable Throttle Assist - always max powerLink

  1. Set Designated assist to 9
  2. Configure Assist Levels in Bafang basic settings page
  3. For Assist 0 set Limited Current(%) = 100 and Limited Speed = 100
  4. Your Throttle assist should work the same (speed and current limit) no matter what PAS level you see on display

Speed LimitLink

The value of the speed limit.

If set to Display command the value from Max Speed Road or Max Speed OffRoad from Display settings page will be used.

Start Current (%)Link

Percentage of available current when throttle initially applied.Lower values for smoother startup:5 or 10 gives a much smoother startup. This can be set all the way down to 1.

ADVANCEDLink

Throttle ModeLink

Options

  • Speeed
  • Current

Tip

Switching this to Current Mode (instead of Speed mode) has an improvement in the throttle response smoothness.

Start Voltage (x100mV)Link

Attention

Do not change this value unless you really know what you are doing.

This is the throttle input starting voltage. The point at which the controller responds to input is at 1.1 volts, so set value to 11 which = 1.1 volts. As you begin to roll on the throttle the voltage moves up from zero and when it reaches 1.1v the motor begins to turn. Best to leave between 10 and 15. Too low and the display will throw an error as the motor will want to run continuously. If you change the throttle you will need to find the new lowest setting.

End Voltage (0x100mV)Link

Attention

Do not change this value unless you really know what you are doing.

You can set the max range to 42 which is the max input the controller accepts from throttle input 4.2v. If you set lower than this value your throttle response is not as linear or smooth as it could be.
