1.0 Vehicle Electronical Control Unit, VECU

1.1 General, control unit

The MID number for the vehicle (VECU) is 144.

The main function of the VECU is to gather data from the different driver ctrols inside the bus, and send them on to the other control units in the symainly to the EECU. VECU also has some built-in functions, that used tohandled by the combination relay.

The vehicle control unit is connected to both the control link (SAE J1939)the information link (SAE J1587).

VECU is often installed beneath the dashboard.

Figure 1. The picture displays where the different control units may be mounted. Dependinmodel and variant of the bus, the location of the control units may differ.

1.2 VECU functions

These are the VECU functions.

• Accelerator pedal

The signals from the accelerator pedal are sent to VECU, and then furthto the EECU via the control link. If there is an open circuit in the control linthe signals from the accelerator pedal will be sent on the information linkthe EECU. The EECU control unit has an emergency function, that makes it possible for the bus to be driven with reduced speed, in case of an opencuit in both data links. In that case it is the idle valve switch that handlesacceleration. The idle switch is connected to the EECU with a separate nection, and it will indicate if the accelerator pedal is in idle position or ding position.

• Cruise control and Redundant brake switch

The cruise control is operated by a four function control switch located alever on the left side of the steering wheel. When braking the redundant bswitch is set and cruise control is inhibited.

• Vehicle speed

The vehicle speed signal is sent from a sensor on the gearbox. Dependithe variant of the bus, such as if the bus has a tachograph or a speedomthe transfer and the processing of the signal differs.

Tachograph

The signal is transferred via a separate connection that is sealed to the tachograph. The tachograph then sends a frequency signal to the VECUforwards the message to both data links.

The supply voltage for the sensor on the gearbox comes from the instrumcluster. The signal (vehicle speed) is sent from the sensor via a separatenection to the VECU wich forwards the message to both data links. The speedometer then receives the signal from the information link.

• Increased idling speed

This function can be controlled by VECU.

• Key switch/start button

VECU controls the function of the key switch/start button for the EECU, athe preheating function.

• Engine and exhaust brake

VECU controls the exhaust brake and the engine brake.

• Windshield wiper

VECU controls the interval- and wiper function during wash of the wind-shield.

• Hand retarder

Auxiliary brake system, controlled by a five function control switch at a scial lever.

• Foot retarder (and brake pedal control)

Auxiliary brake system controlled by a potentionmeter built into the brakpedal. By setting the brake pedal control switch, the function is disabled

2.3 Reset faultcodes

VISP resets the faultcodes that may occur in the control unit. This test is matically performed by VISP, the operator does not have to do anything dthe test.

When the ECU resets error codes, it only resets them from the RAM-memothe error codes are to be reset permanently, the non-volatile memory mureset. This will be done when the key switch is turned off. The reset will tafew seconds.

Note! If the main power switch is turned off before the key switch, the errorcodes will still be in the non-volatile memory. Therefore the operator needsturn off the keyswitch for a few seconds (after error codes have been resetbefore the main power is turned off.
