Setup and Installation
The controllers are designed for specific positions within a dual-motor scooter system. Model A is for the front motor, and Model B is for the rear motor.
- Verify Compatibility: Before installation, ensure that the controller model (A or B) matches the intended motor (front or rear) and that your scooter model (AUSOM DT2 PRO or KUGOO F3 PRO MAX) is compatible.
- Power Off: Completely turn off your electric scooter and disconnect the battery to prevent electrical shock or damage.
- Access Controller Compartment: Locate and open the scooter's controller compartment. This may require removing screws or panels.
- Identify Existing Controller (if replacing): Note the wiring connections of the old controller before disconnecting. Take photos if necessary.
- Connect New Controller: Carefully connect the new MACURY controller. Each wire and connector is color-coded and shaped to fit specific ports. Refer to the detailed wiring diagrams provided with your scooter or consult the product diagrams below for guidance.

- Hall Sensor Wires: Smaller wires (usually a bundle of five) connect to the motor's Hall sensors.
- Battery Power: Connect the main power wires (often red and black, with XT60 or similar connectors) to the scooter's battery.
- Signal Wires: Connect throttle, brake, display, and other signal wires as per your scooter's specific wiring scheme.
- Secure Controller: Once all connections are made, secure the controller within the compartment to prevent movement and damage.
- Test Functionality: Reconnect the battery and perform a low-speed test to ensure all functions (throttle, brakes, lights, display) are working correctly before full operation.

Operating Instructions
Once installed, the controller manages the power delivery to the scooter's motor(s) based on your input from the throttle and other controls. Ensure your scooter's display and throttle are correctly calibrated if applicable.
- Power On: Turn on your scooter using its main power switch.
- Throttle Control: Gently apply the throttle to accelerate. The controller will regulate power to the motor(s).
- Braking: Use the scooter's brake levers. The controller will cut power to the motor(s) and engage regenerative braking if supported.
- Mode Selection: If your scooter has multiple speed modes, the controller will adjust its output accordingly.
Maintenance
- Regular Inspection: Periodically check the controller and its connections for any signs of wear, corrosion, or loose wiring.
- Keep Dry: While controllers are often designed to be water-resistant, avoid exposing them to excessive moisture or direct water spray.
- Cleanliness: Keep the controller and its compartment free from dust, dirt, and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
- Avoid Overheating: Ensure adequate ventilation around the controller. Prolonged high-power usage in hot conditions can lead to overheating.
Troubleshooting
- Scooter Not Powering On: Check battery connection, main power switch, and ensure the controller is securely connected.
- Motor Not Responding: Verify throttle connection, motor phase wires, and Hall sensor wires. Ensure the correct controller (front/rear) is installed for the respective motor.
- Erratic Behavior: Inspect all wiring for loose connections or damage. Ensure no wires are pinched.
- Error Codes on Display: Consult your scooter's specific user manual for interpretation of any error codes displayed, as these often relate to controller or motor issues.
User Tips
- Double-Check Connections: Several users have reported successful installation and operation, emphasizing the importance of correctly connecting all wires. A thorough check before powering on can prevent issues.
- Model Specificity: Remember that Model A is for the front motor (sub-controller) and Model B is for the rear motor (main controller). Installing the correct model in the correct position is crucial for proper dual-motor function.
- 48V Systems: This controller is designed for 52V systems. It is not recommended for use with 48V systems as it may not function correctly or could cause damage.
- Advanced Modifications: While some users inquire about advanced modifications like key-based braking systems, these are beyond the standard intended use and may void your warranty or damage the controller. Proceed with caution and at your own risk if attempting such modifications.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Q: Can this controller be used with a 48V electric scooter system?
- A: No, this controller is specifically designed for 52V systems and is not compatible with 48V systems.
- Q: Is there a speed limitation on this controller?
- A: The controller operates at 52V/28A. Any speed limitations would typically be set by the scooter's display unit or firmware, not inherently by the controller itself, unless it's a specific regional version. Please check your scooter's manual for details on speed settings.
- Q: Can I install a custom key-based braking system with this controller?
- A: The controller is designed to work with the scooter's standard braking system. Modifications like installing a custom key-based braking system are not officially supported and may require advanced electrical knowledge. Such modifications could potentially damage the controller or scooter and may void your warranty.
