Re: Need a little help with Alltrax controller
I called a friend of mine and he is bring his lap top over this evening. Maybe I can find what's wrong. I checked the 2 prongs you are talking about and there was every little slop.

Re: Need a little help with Alltrax controller
That's good but only the computer will tell you if the controller is seeing full throttle. On several that I have worked on with very little slop they've only hit about 80% throttle.

Re: Need a little help with Alltrax controller
Well today is just not a good day. I couldn't get the lap top to link to the controller. I tried everything I could and every time it said "cannot locate motor controller". I'm about to pull my hair out. I believe I'm not getting about 20% throttle. I just don't understand how the throttle worked fine with the factory curtis controller and then I put the Alltrax controller in and I'm only getting around 20% or 30% of throttle at the most. I guess I'll give Alltrax a call and see what they say. Thanks for all the help, Greg

Re: Need a little help with Alltrax controller
The controller green light must be on before you open the program...... get a jumper wire with pack voltage positive to terminal #1 on the controller and try again.... alligator clips ad 16g wire work well for this....I hope this helps

Re: Need a little help with Alltrax controller
I did have a sold green when I went to open the program. But the computer doesn't recognize the controller. I had the same problem on the bench and I found where a guy on here (BGW) had the same problem I'm having. He figured out that he had to plug the cable into the controller 1st. and then power up the controller. Then he plugged the usb cable into the computer, and then started the program. Thats the only way I could get it to work for me on the bench, but I can't get it to work any which way now that it is installed. Do you still think I need a jumper wire even though I have a sold green light? Thanks for the info., Greg

Re: Need a little help with Alltrax controller
That's the problem the Controller Software is NOT compatible with Windows 7 and must be ran on Windows XP. Once we can get the setting of the controller we can see what is going on.
