3. Setup and Installation
Careful installation is crucial for the safe and effective operation of your e-bike system. Ensure all connections are secure and correctly oriented.
3.1 Controller Wiring Diagram
Refer to the diagram below for connecting the controller to various components of your electric bicycle or scooter. Each plug is labeled for easy identification.
Figure 3.1: Detailed wiring diagram for the 30A controller, showing connections for Phase line (3pin), Hall line (6pin), Throttle (3pin), Light (2pin), E-brake (2pin), Display (5pin), Power (XT60), PAS (3pin), and Self-study (2pin).
3.2 Key Connections
- Power (XT60 Plug): This plug features clear positive and negative pole signs. It is made of insulating material to prevent burning and ensure battery safety. Connect your battery here.
- Display (5pin SM Plug): Connect the UKC1 LCD display to this port. The display cable length is approximately 1650mm, with an additional 260mm for the control unit.
- Self-study (2pin): This is part of the 'Three Mode Controller' functionality. If the motor reverses direction after initial setup, connect the two self-study lines briefly to correct the forward rotation. Disconnect them after the motor direction is corrected.
