It turns out that not all models of calibrator will program all models of Powerpak! I first got hold of a model 662/14022 calibrator that worked just fine with my PP784 80V SEM Powerpak, i.e. It's worth taking a moment to discuss the various SEVCON CAN Calibrators available. I'm pretty sure I paid over the odds for it and I subsequently broke it, but that's another story. Calibrators are available for rent but I wanted one that I could keep hold of for a while, so I searched on eBay for one with the intention of reselling it at a later date.
Unfortunately I've not been able to find any information on the data available from the controllers on a real time basis, and together with the fact that the calibrators are expensive I set out to try and build my own. These controllers have the ability to output CAN messages, and are also programmable through the same CAN interface. I have a couple of projects that utilize SEVCON Powerpak controllers. Jan 22,2012 - I've added an Updates page for new stuff. You're welcome to email me with questions, suggestions or cries for help. It is most likely going to be a continual work in progress, but there is a current working program available for download.
This page details a program I have written to emulate the SEVCON CAN Calibrator that is used to diagnose and program the SEVCON Powerpak and Micropak DC motor controllers.
