Hi All, The Alltrax controller will monitor the following: Throttle Position Controller Temp Battery Voltage Output (motor) Current Battery Current Error Flags The Alltrax application allows you to monitor these or write them to file. That's great for application where you can take your laptop along... I guess you would need to know what the values are and how to read them from the controller to input them to the 'dash'. Does anyone know the values, codes and value constants for using the data from the Alltrax directly? -- Shawn M. Waggoner
