Features.

1.      Eight injector drivers for full sequential operation on engines up to eight cylinders. Staging injection possible in some applications. May be set for 'semi-sequential' operation on engines that have more than 8 cylinders (e.g. 12 cylinder engine using 6 groups of two cylinders). All common port injector types catered for (0.9 ohm to 16 ohm coil resistance) with selectable Low or High current driver. When ordering, request an initial configuration to suit injectors. Drive current selection is field re-configurable.

2.      Four open collector outputs for triggering Capacitor Discharge or Smart Inductive Ignition Modules.

Note: Standard product does NOT provide dwell control (installation of optional dwell control interface module/s is required).

3.      Single coil distributor, twin coil distributor or multicoil distributor-less ignition configurations are possible on most engines.

4.      Fuel pump safety shut-off. Pump stops 3 to 4 seconds after the engine stops.

5.      Seven auxiliary outputs in addition to fuel pump control. Auxiliary outputs can be defined for boost control, nitrous oxide, staged injectors, camshaft timing, A/C, fan control, idle valve etc...

6.      User choice of Manifold absolute pressure or Throttle position as Engine load input. Internal absolute pressure sensor for simplified installation 0 to 200 kPa (0 to 29.4 PSI) and 0 to 300 kPa (0 to 44.1 PSI) available from stock. 0 to 450 kPa (0 to 66.1 PSI) available on request.

7.      Autronic ‘Mass-flow determination method’ simplifies fuel delivery calibration, especially for multi-butterfly or variable inlet geometry engines equipped with forced induction. This method, combined with other measures, ensures precise fuel delivery matching, irrespective of altitude and exhaust back-pressure (when a back pressure sensor is connected) whilst reducing calibration effort.

8.      Compensation of engine control parameters for engine operation over a wide altitude range (fuel delivery, ignition timing and boost pressure).

9.      Measurement of and correction for exhaust back pressure.

10.  Unique transient calibration strategy allows accurate control of fuel delivery under both acceleration and deceleration.

11.  Direct connect a narrow band O2 sensor for closed loop emissions control, or a compatible wide band Air-fuel ratio meter (e.g. Autronic MAFM1) for full range engine tuning.

12.  Autronic ‘Autotune’ self-tune software feature for air-fuel ratio calibration requiring minimal user intervention (compatible with firmware versions from v1.90).

13.  Closed loop (feedback) boost pressure control for turbocharged engines with multiple calibration curves selectable by switch input and/or gear ratio (e.g. lower boost curve for use in low gear).

14.  Closed loop (feedback) idle speed control.

15.  Adaptive learning (with memory) to minimize the number of user setups required and to provide optimal control of air/fuel ratio, boost pressure and idle stability.

16.  Precise compensation for injector dead-time and non-linearity. Large library of predefined compensations for popular injector types.

17.  Precise spark advance control strategy for both static and dynamic operating conditions.

18.  User selectable spark and fuel delivery strategy for abnormal engine operation conditions to minimize possibility of engine damage whilst still maintaining engine operation (e.g. over heated or over boosted).

19.  Comprehensive limp-home functions with user selectable default settings that, whenever possible, ensure engine operation can continue after sensor failure has occurred.

20.  Coolant temperature dependent Rev Limiter with soft characteristic that uses a combination of fuel delivery and spark control.

21.  Traction Control, Flat Shift, Launch Control & Anti-Lag (Turbo boost enhancement) are available (depending on Firmware version fitted).

22.  Diagnostic/Error indicator light with memory for reporting sensor or ECU fault conditions. Ideal for detection of intermittent fault conditions. Error history information is also accessible from P.C. screen.

23.  User configurable internal data logging of up to 17 channels with the selected channels being sampled as fast as 50 times a second. 32k bytes of non-volatile memory. Peak capture feature aids detection of over-rev, over-boost and over-temperature conditions.

24.  Serial data port can be used in a bi-directional communication mode for P.C. calibration, monitoring and data logging, or in unidirectional mode for data streaming output to a Dash / Data logger. Remote adjustment and/or monitoring are possible if Radio modems are added to the serial link.

25.  Simultaneous and independent operation of the internal data logger and serial port data link is allowed.

26.  Control of engine cooling fans and coordination with air conditioner operation.

27.  Control of Water Injection/spray or Intercooler fan/s cooling function for intake charge temperature reduction in Turbo/super charged applications.

28.  Programmable On-Off output function for solenoid or relay driving that operates according to engine speed and load (e.g. can be used for gear shift control or light, over rev indicator, inlet camshaft timing selection or control of a supplementary electric fuel pump that augments main fuel pump).

29.  Programmable proportional output function that can be used for additional functions, or as an extra on/off output.

30.  Fuel used pulse output to electronic or electromechanical counter with resolution of 0.1 litres (or use with trip computer).

31.  Compatible with optional No.1 cylinder spark plug pick-up interface unit that allows sequential injector operation on engines equipped with distributor ignition, without the need for separate crank/camshaft sensors or a special multi-sensor distributor.

Note: The above list describes the product family capability. Individual product feature set depends upon firmware version fitted. See ‘SM2 ECU FIRMWARE VERSION - FEATURE MATRIX’ document.
