Outline of Controller
1. Logic unit
This controller includes the power card and logic card.
It controls all the jobs for the truck based on the
operator’s input.
The controller sends a motor control command to the
right and left traction inverters through the input of the
direction lever or the accelerator pedal. It also monitors
malfunctions of the traction system.
The lever input triggers to send the motor control
commands to the pump inverter. It also monitors
malfunctions in the hydraulic control system. In the FC
specifications, this controller sends a control command
to the solenoid valves from the output unit by the lever
input. A malfunction in the valve control system is also
monitored by this controller.
The truck speed and residual battery power are
monitored and shown on the display unit.
The logic unit sets its model information and optional
default data into internal memory. The information is
secured even if the power supply for the logic unit is
turned off. This information is set at the factory.
The following table shows the model information. The
system will not work properly if the actual controller
system is different from the model information.

the “Do this” box on the Step 0 line. If the item
passes the check without any problem, the next step
number “01” appears on the display. If the item Diagnostics result indication
involves any problem and fails in the check,“dd” is
shown on the display. The display also shows “dd”
when diagnostics is started without removing the
fuse. In this case, diagnostics is prohibited from
going even to the first step.
(2) When the Step 0 has passed the check, diagnostics
may advance to the Step 1 item (seat switch). 209561
Cycle the seat switch OFF→ON→OFF according
to the instruction in the “Do this” box on the Step
1 line. If the item passes the check, the next step
number “02” appears on the display. Do likewise
for the succeeding items, following the instructions
in the “Do this” column boxes. If the step fails in
the check, diagnostics does not advance
automatically. In this case, diagnostics can be
forcibly advanced to the next step by cycling the
DRS switch D→R→D.

2. Diagnostics procedure
Perform the procedure using the Self-Diagnostics
(Power steering system) table in accordance with the
following guide.
211195
(1) Start diagnostics with the Step 0 in the table. Turn
ON the key switch according to the instruction in
the “Do this” box on the Step 0 line. If the item
passes the check without any problem, the next step Diagnostics result indication
number “20” appears on the display. If the item
involves any problem and fails in the check, “dd” is
shown on the display. The display also shows “dd”
when diagnostics is started without removing the
fuse. In this case, diagnostics is prohibited from
going even to the first step.
(2) When the Step 0 has passed the check, diagnostics 213094
may advance to the Step 20 item (steering sensor).
Check the steering sensor according to the
instruction in the “Do this” box on the Step 20 line.
(3) When all the steps have been checked through, turn
OFF the key switch and place the DRS switch in R
the R position. Do not forget to reinstall the pump S D
fuse.

• Turn OFF the key switch to exit from the
diagnostics mode.
• Repair all faults found immediately after
diagnostics.
Diagnostics procedure requires moving the DRS 211196

both loading and regeneration. The following procedure
will confirm the regeneration operation.
1. Place the clamp ammeter onto the cable connected to Clamp ammeter
the inverter’s P terminal (use DC current range). This setting direction
is positive direction as current flows from the battery to
the inverter.
2. Move the lift truck forward. With the direction lever
shifted in F position, release the accelerator pedal.
Then perform a full-reverse operation.
3. The clamp ammeter should show a negative value. This

3. Inverter Switch
The truck battery delivers DC current, so the current must
be converted into AC current to drive an AC motor. The VB VL Load
device that converts direct current into alternating current is
generally called an “inverter.” The processes involved in T1 T2 T1 T2 T1
creating AC current from DC current are described below. VL = x VB

and this on-off operation is repeated many times, the Small duty ratio Large duty ratio

average of the voltage applied to the load is determined
by the ratio between T1 and T2. Varying the ratio,
therefore, results in varying voltage. The ratio between

T1 and T2 is called “duty ratio.” By changing the duty 209544
ratio cyclically, it is possible to obtain cyclically

changing DC voltage shown in Fig. 3.
(2) Converting DC power into AC power
Driving a three-phase AC motor using battery
delivered power requires creating three phase outputs
(U, V, W) of an identical waveform that differ in phase
by 120° using a circuit with six switches S1 to S6 that S1 S3 S5
are arranged as shown in Fig. 4. The outputs thus U
V
created forms a three-phase alternating current. Fig. 5 W

shows on-off condition of each switch (arm) and output
voltage variation.
Functioning as switches in the inverter of the AC motor
trucks are MOS-FET transistors. The MOS-FET
209545
transistors can switch at very high speeds, thus creating
smooth waveforms of alternating current. Fig. 4
