Operation
Urge to Move (AutoLaunch)
•
Urge to Move allows the vehicle to automatically start moving at engine
idle speed when the transmission system is in a forward or reverse
mode and the driver releases the vehicle service brake. After the vehicle
has launched and begun moving, the transmission system will transi-
tion into Creep Mode.
•
This feature is useful for stop and go applications allowing the vehicle
to launch and creep without driver application of the vehicle accelerator
pedal.
Note:
The Urge to Move feature is configured in the Transmission Control
Module (TCM) at the OEM. The configuration can be changed using Ser-
viceRanger.
Creep Mode
•
Creep Mode allows the vehicle to be driven at engine idle speed (no
vehicle accelerator input). Upshifts and Downshifts can be requested
by the driver using the transmission driver interface device to increase
or decrease the vehicle speed for existing vehicle operating conditions.
Creep Mode becomes inactive once the accelerator pedal is applied.
•
This feature is useful for slow speed applications where slow and
steady vehicle speed is required.
Note:
The Creep Mode feature is configured in the Transmission Control
Module (TCM) at the OEM. The configuration can be changed using Ser-
viceRanger.
