• How do I program my Kelly Controller?

  Kelly controllers can be programmed using the free user program on a PC via a Kelly USB/RS232 cable, or on an Android device using a dedicated Bluetooth adapter.

• Do Kelly KLS controllers support sensorless motors?

  No, the standard KLS series controllers typically require Hall sensors to operate and do not support sensorless brushless motors.

• What does the flashing red LED indicate on the controller?

  The red LED flashes specific codes to indicate faults. Check the "Fault Code" table in your specific user manual to interpret the blink pattern (e.g., over-voltage, throttle error).

  Many Kelly controllers, such as the KLS-N series, are rated IP66, meaning they are dust-tight and protected against heavy seas or powerful jets of water.
