Hi all, fairly new to messing about with electronics so please bear with me :)
I need a control device to in effect 'soft-start' a 24v DC permanent magnet motor rated at 375w and 22.5A
SK Pang do a Pololu High-Power Motor Driver 18v25 CS, the link is below. I have contacted them but they are rubbish at replying and various searches on Wikipedia haven't helped me understand anymore about the electronics in the unit.
Do I need some extra equipment to 'program' this board or is it done with dip switches?

If anyone has other thoughts about what I could use instead I would be very grateful, I assume PWM is the only way to 'soft-start' DC?
