NOVAK ELECTRONICS • PROFILE SOFTWARE

INTRODUCTION
When designing an electronic speed control, the Novak engineers
are put to the task of setting design parameters such as how wide
the Deadband should be, what percentage of Full Drive should be
applied with the first pulse of transmitter information, or what
Brake and Drive Frequencies to use. In the past our engineers would
determine the best possible compromise for these parameters
based on different vehicles and driving styles. While these fixed
designs were perfect for some applications and some drivers, they
were not right for others. It became clear that a speed control was
needed that allowed the driver to modify several of the design
parameters to fit their differing applications and needs.
During testing, our engineers found that different vehicles required
different parameter values, just as each individual driver required
different parameters to obtain the type of feel that they desired.
With this criteria in mind, Novak proudly brings you the Cyclone
Programmable Speed Control and the Profile Software (#1030).
WHAT’S INCLUDED
• PROFILE SOFTWARE
Specialized profiling software that allows you to customize the
adjustable parameters of the Novak Cyclone Electronic Speed
Control (ESC), including the Deadband width, Minimum Drive
percentage, Drive & Brake PWM Frequencies, and more.
• DATALINK HARDWARE
Comes with everything needed to hook-up your Cyclone speed
control to an IBM
®
-compatible personal computer. Including
DataLink for connecting to speed control, DB9/RJ11 adaptor
for connecting to the communications serial port of computer,
and an RJ11 (6-conductor) cable for connecting the DataLink
to the DB9/RJ11 adaptor.
• ELECTRONIC INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Complete instruction manual is included on disk as a PDF file.
