To calibrate the servo-style PWM input for a specific range, connect a PWM source, then:

1. Hold down the USER switch with a straightened paperclip.

2. After 5 seconds, the LED flashes Red and Green quickly to indicate Calibration mode.

3. Instruct the controller to send a full-forward signal.

4. Instruct the controller to send a full-reverse signal.

5. Instruct the controller to return to a neutral signal.

6. The LED flashes Green and Yellow quickly to indicate a successful calibration.

7. Release the USER switch.

The MDL-BDC samples these signals and centers the speed range and neutral position between these limits. A calibration failure will be signaled if an out-of-range signal is detected. To reset the servo-style PWM input to the default factory range:

1. Disconnect the power to the MDL-BDC.

2. Hold down the USER switch with a straightened paperclip.

3. Reconnect power to the MDL-BDC

4. After 5 seconds, the LED flashes Red and Green slowly to indicate a successful calibration reset to factory settings.

5. Release the USER switch.
