Crown WAVE60-118:
Speed limit blocked??

Hi!

I have 2 wave 60. The first one if I go to the service menu I can put the max forward speed to 8km/h (which is the max speed stated for these models by crown) but with my other wave I can only max the forward speed to like 5.2km/h or something like that. When I go to the max speed adjustment I can't indrease it past 5.2...... someone told me depending on the latest update in it they could have blocked the speed?? Or is there any jumper or switch somewhere that prevent the max speed?? This is weird...

Thanks in advance!

It requires a laptop, wave can adapter and the wave download tool on the laptop. Basically connect the laptop to the can connector on the lift (should be located under the bottom cover) start the download tool and follow the on screen instructions. If you call CROWN they can also walk you through the process over the phone.

Oh ok thanks. Is it hard to update to new software version? How should I do this correctly?

Yes this new model (60 series) has the max speed at 5mph (8km/h). I was think about the 50 series, the older models can't go as fast. I'd recommend installing the latest software version, it seems like the last software version wasn't installed right or it's a very old version of software with a speed cap set low. Hopefully this helps.

If you have the serial numbers I can verify but yes different versions of the Wave60's do have a slower max speed. It also depends on the lift height aswell. I don't remember when that change came out, but you are not the first person to notice.
