Command Control Curves
The AX2500/2850 can also be set to translate the joystick motor commands so that the
motors respond differently whether the joystick is near the center or near the extremes.
Five different exponential or logarithmic translation curves may be applied. Since this fea-
ture applies to both R/C and RS232 mode, it is described in detail in “Command Control
Curves” on page 42, in the General Operation section of this manual.

Left/Right Tuning Adjustment
When operating in mixed mode with one motor on each side of the robot, it may happen
that one motor is spinning faster than the other one at identically applied power, causing
the vehicle to pull to the left or to the right.
that one motor is spinning faster than the other one at identically applied power, causing
the vehicle to pull to the left or to the right.
To compensate for this, the AX2500/2850 can be made to give one side up to 10% more
power than the other at the same settings. This capability is described in detail in “Left /
Right Tuning Adjustment” on page 43, in the General Operation section of this manual.

Joystick Calibration
This feature allows you to program the precise minimum, maximum and center joystick
positions of your R/C transmitter into the controller’s memory. This feature will allow you to
use the full travel of your joystick (i.e. minimum = 100% reverse, maximum = 100% for-
ward). It also ensures that the joystick’s center position does indeed correspond to a “0”
motor command value.

ward). It also ensures that the joystick’s center position does indeed correspond to a “0”
motor command value.
Joystick calibration is also useful for modifying the active joystick travel area. For example,
the figure below shows a transmitter whose joystick’s center position has been moved
back so that the operator has a finer control of the speed in the forward direction than in
the reverse position.
