with the serial hooked up, type "config"
That will show all the current variable settings.

Now type:
pc-time 40
save

That will set the precharge time to 4 seconds. Then it will save it to eeprom. Now turn off the controller and on again, and the main contactor will close after 4 seconds.
PAUL!!

Im ashamed of you.

The creator of the controller doesnt even kow all of the commands!!

Mike, If you just type restart, the controller will reboot without needing to cycle the power.

P.S. Im just pulling your leg Paul, Your doing great!!
