Hey Dave, while I don't know which brake controller you have most likely the gain knob is like a sensitivity setting and the level is the max output the controller will put out. Not every brake controller uses the same terminology though so if you let me know what brake controller you have I can verify if this is accurate.

Hey Dave, did you get a chance to check which brake controller you have so we could confirm how the gain and level settings work? Once you know the model, I can help make sure the explanation fits your setup.
