Dave, wouldn’t these also work with the ford think controller also? I know very little about the think as a whole, but i believe their controller was the same hardware as gem’s T2, just called a D2 (?) Not sure what the differences exactly were, if any. I bought my sentry pc software, usb-\> serial adapter and serial to old 12-pin GE controller plug from a member here with a think and it had no problems whatsoever talking to my 02 gem with T2. @David_Illingworth ---

Yes I have one of these for my Ford Think and it works perfectly. I couldn’t get the GE sentry software to work reliable so I bought one of the handsets. I have two of those sentry setups if anyone is interested. I’m guessing the problem is my pc. ---

Is it 8p or 12p? The handset works with either, but sentry needs a special dongle for 8p T1 type controllers, as they do not have rs232 output. I can build T1 dongles if needed. I can also make handset connectors. ---

I have the software and can pick up a usb → Serial cable anywhere. is there a easy way to get just the serial cable that plug into the T2 (2002 e825 4 passenger)? Does programming the T2’s allow you to remove the 28mph limit, or is there no way to do it WITHOUT throwing the speedo off? ---

You can remove the 28mph limit on the T2 without affecting the speedometer. It’s parameter #20 “MPH Overspeed” set it to whatever MPH value you want the top speed to be. What I did with mine was program #11 “Turf Speed Limit” so that with the drive switch in turf, the cart would top out at about 22 mph. Flip it to road and then it would go to whatever #20 was programmed for. ̶ ̶ ̶T̶h̶e̶ ̶o̶n̶l̶y̶ ̶t̶h̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶t̶ ̶#̶1̶1̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶a̶ ̶0̶-̶2̶5̶5̶ ̶s̶e̶t̶t̶i̶n̶g̶,̶ ̶i̶t̶’̶s̶ ̶a̶ ̶r̶a̶t̶i̶o̶,̶ ̶b̶u̶t̶ ̶I̶ ̶d̶o̶n̶’̶t̶ ̶t̶h̶i̶n̶k̶ ̶i̶t̶’̶s̶ ̶l̶i̶n̶e̶a̶r̶.̶ ̶Looking at an old printout, I was using 128 and had #20 at 35mph.

Here it is from the manual: FUNCTION 2 CREEP SPEED ( Push 2 ) This function allows for the adjustment of the creep speed of the vehicle when the accelerator potentiometer is at its minimum value and the start switch is closed. Range 2% to 15% on time Set 0 to 255 Resolution 0.047% per set unit Example Setting of 205=(205x0.047)+2= 11% on time Important Note: The function is used to optimize motor and control performance and this setting will be determined by GE and OEM engineers at the time of vehicle development. This setting must not be changed by field personnel without the permission of the OEM. FUNCTION 11 TURF SPEED LIMIT (Push 11) This function allows for the adjustment of the top speed of the vehicle (maximum battery volts to the motor) when it is in Turf Mode. Range 100% to 0% (or creep speed) Set 51 to 170 Resolution 0.78% per set unit Example: Setting of 0 = no speed limit Setting of 170 = maximum speed reduction Setting of 110 =100%-((110-51) - (creep val/8)) x 0.78 44% FUNCTION 12 REVERSE SPEED LIMIT ( Push 12 ) This function allows for the adjustment of the top speed of the vehicle (maximum battery volts to the motor) when it is being operated in the reverse direction. Range 100% to 0% of battery volts Set 51 to 170 Resolution 0.78% per set unit Example: Setting of 0 = no speed limit Setting of 170 = maximum speed reduction Setting of 134 =100%-((134-51) - (creep val/8)) x 0.78 = 20% ---

I have an LX controller but need the 8 pin connector for a T2 like you mentioned. Please let me know if you are able to find a connector. Per INWO it’s an 8 pin multilock .040 connector Thanks ---
