I. Prerequisites

Hardware Integration​

Review your controller's hardware documentation to locate the correct pinout for the following steps.

Safety Precautions
  • Elevate your vehicle to allow free motor rotation
  • Secure both vehicle and motor to prevent movement
  • Use only battery power - avoid single-quadrant power supplies
  • Always use batteries equipped with a Battery Management System (BMS)

Motor Connection​

  • Connect the three motor phase wires (initial phase order is not critical)
  • Install motor sensors (if applicable)

Control Elements Connection​

  • Connect potentiometer to GPIO0
  • Install map button switch between GPIO1 and IOGND
  • Connect power switch

Wiring Diagram

Battery Connection​

  • Verify power switch is in OFF position
  • Ensure potentiometer is at minimum position
  • Connect battery negative terminal
  • Connect battery positive terminal
warning

Connecting battery terminals while powered ON may cause sparking due to capacitor bank charging. Verify BMS precharge capability or use manual precharge resistor. Some controllers feature built-in precharge mechanisms when equipped with external contactors.

Software Setup​

SWTools Installation​

This guide requires SWTools for configuration, tuning, and diagnostics. Install SWTools before proceeding.

LYNX Authentication​

LYNX firmware includes security features requiring authentication. Enter credentials in Launchpad options:

Credentials: service:superlynx

Authentication Process

Essential Guides​

Required SWTools knowledge:

tip

Parameter changes take effect immediately but require saving for persistence after power cycles.

tip

USB connection allows interface testing without full vehicle power.

Firmware Configuration​

This guide assumes default LYNX parameter values.
