Calibration:

Proceed with calibration for better control.
With this variant, the auto-calibration is expecting 2 normal pots, and will reject the calibration if an input is missing or is of incorrect type (e.g. mid-resting pot).
You can change the type of input1(brake) to 0 to disable it if you have a mechanical brake and don't need this input. But you won't be able to use it to reverse anymore.

Features:

Feature	How to use it
Reverse	Double-pressing brake at standstill will activate reverse
Switch Control Mode	Pressing the left optical sensor on the sideboard will switch the control mode (Voltage, Speed, Torque)
Field Weakening	Pressing the right optical sensor on the sideboard turns Field Weakening ON/OFF
Cruise Control	If CRUISE_CONTROL_SUPPORT parameter is enabled, pressing the right optical sensor on the sideboard will turn Cruise Control ON/OFF instead of field weakening If you are not using the sideboard, and SUPPORT_BUTTONS and SUPPORT_BUTTONS_LEFT parameters are enabled, pressing a button connected to the blue wire on the left sensor board cable will turn Cruise Control ON/OFF.
Standstill hold	If STANDSTILL_HOLD_ENABLE parameter is enabled, motors will hold the position when standtill is reached. Only available and makes sense for VOLTAGE or TORQUE mode
Electric Brake	If ELECTRIC_BRAKE_ENABLE parameter is enabled, it will replace "freewheel" with a constant braking when the input torque(throttle) request is 0 Parameter ELECTRIC_BRAKE_MAX can be used to set the Maximum electric brake to be applied when input torque request is 0 (pedal fully released) Parameter ELECTRIC_BRAKE_THRES is the threshold below at which the electric brake starts engaging Only available and makes sense for TORQUE mode

Troubleshooting:

• The wheels oscillate when braking: this is normal behavior when there is no load, it won't happen with the wheels on the ground.
  
• If when pressing the brake wheels accelerate, your board probably as a different mapping for hall sensors, firmware measures a speed with opposite sign
