Gen2/Implement Variable Regen

Goal

Variable Regen is an attractive feature that the Sevcon controller can implement but Zero doesn't deliver in their Gen2 platform models.

Steps

1. Install a connection into an unused analog input on the SevCon controller's 35-pin AMPSeal connector.

   Use Sevcon's DVT software to configure the software to read it and map it appropriately.

2. Install a handle or switch to control the regen.

   Mount a handle or switch that provides a variable voltage output on the handlebar.

   Wire it up and amplify or tune the sensor to match the input requirements.
