The Electronic Control Unit (ECU), also referred to as the brain of the system, controls the system. The key
functions of the gas system ECU are:
1. Detection and processing of original engine management signals:
a) Petrol injectors
b) Coolant temperature
c) Engine RPM
d) On-board voltage
e) OBD-communication (Option)
2. Detection and processing of gas system signals:
a)
Gas pressure
b)
Manifold pressure
c)
Gas temperature
d)
Tank level sensor
e)
Selected fuel type
3. Controlling of flow valves
4. Controlling of gas injectors
5. Deactivation of petrol injectors
6. Serial communication with the selector switch
7. LPG level indication
8. Controlling of buzzer
9. System monitoring and diagnosis
10. Communication with interface software (PC).
The firmware (software strategy) memory and the configuration memory can both be reprogrammed. This means
that in the case of software upgrades, management strategy and calibration can be modified by reprogramming the
memory of the ECU.
There are 5 different hardware versions available. The choice depends on the application, size of the engine and
the budget of the installation.
