Setting and teaching MagicSpeed
➤ Switch off the speed regulator by applying the brake.
➤ Press the SET button.
✓ The speed regulator gently takes on the speed.
The normal functions of the SET and RES buttons are disabled in
this mode, which means you can use the buttons to make the
settings.
➤ If the reaction to the speed is too slow, press the SET button to increase
the INIT value.
➤ If the reaction to the speed is too sudden, press the RES button to
decrease the INIT value.
✓ You will hear a low-pitched signal each time you press the button.
➤ To save the set sensitivity values, press the brake.
✓ If the INIT value is changed, the speed regulator calculates the optimum
GAIN value and deletes the previous value in the control element.
Normally, no more settings on the control element are required. Therefore,
quit setup mode and test the speed controller in normal operation.
➤ If the speed regulator works too slowly or too suddenly in control mode,
you must make the GAIN setting manually (see chapter "Setting the
control sensitivity (GAIN mode)" on page 76).
10.6
Setting the control sensitivity (GAIN mode)
The GAIN value must be increased if the car slows down when the speed
regulator is activated or if it reacts too slowly, for example excess loss of
speed driving uphill or excess acceleration driving downhill.
The GAIN value must be decreased if the car speeds up when the speed
regulator is activated or if it works too suddenly.
Example: You set a speed of 70 km/h and the car's speed fluctuates between
65 and 75 km/h during control mode. Normally the GAIN value ensures that
once the INIT setting has been calculated, the speed controller operates
smoothly in control mode.
This is how to adjust the GAIN value:
➤ Start setup mode (chapter "Starting setup mode" on page 73).
➤ To set the control sensitivity, apply the brake and hold it down.
