AUTRONIC SEQUENTIAL ENGINE MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS
SPECIFICATIONS FOR MODEL SMC
OVERVIEW
The Autronic SMC Sequential Engine Management System is our
new compact engine management control for all engine performance upgrades. This
is the little brother of the unit most widely used in professional motor sport
in this country (SM2 and SM3 models). This unit also offers the same no
compromise performance without the extra complexity of the many ancillary
features of the SM2 and SM3 models.
Volume use of this product in overseas markets allows us to
offer this little unit at a price that compares favourably with our competitors
simple group fire injection units.
A user friendly ‘IBM’ compatible laptop program allows
the user to select the degree of sophistication required for each application.
This program, in combination with the intelligence within the management system,
allows the user to select the finest calibration detail required to match the
application, in an absolute minimum of time.
This program provides the means of interrogating the engine
management system enabling speedy fault diagnosis and calibration. (An
alternative low cost hand held calibrator may be made available in future).

USAGE
These systems can cater for the requirements of virtually any
spark ignition engine, including the following: -
High output supercharged or turbocharged engines, with
either multi point and/or
centre point injection.
Rotary (Wankle) and two stroke engines.
Engines having uneven firing sequences such as 2 and 4
cylinder ‘V’ configuration motorcycle engines and V6 motor vehicle
engines.
IMPORTANT: - Please note that this product is intended for
high performance motor sport application and compliance with statutory
regulations when used on public roads cannot be guaranteed.
FEATURES
Eight injector drivers for full sequential operation on
engines up to eight cylinders. May be set for ‘semi-sequential’ operation
on engines having more than eight cylinders, eg: - 12 cylinder engine using 6
groups of 2 cylinders.
All injector types catered for (0.9 ohm to 16-ohm coil
resistance). Specify unit fitted with optional high current injector drivers
for 0.9 ohm or twin injector applications.
User choice of manifold absolute pressure or throttle
position as engine load input. Internal absolute pressure sensor for
simplified installation 0 to 200Kpa (o to 29.4 PSI) and 0 to 300Kpa (o to 44.1
PSI) available from stock. 0 to 45Kpa (o to 66.1 PSI) available on request.
Single coil distributor, twin coil distributor or multicoil
distributor-less ignition configurations are possible on most engines.
Fitted with environmentally sealed connector the standard
unit is splash proof. Units are available with double environmental sealing
for use in the most arduous of applications (eg: - rally, off-road, and
marine).
Auxiliary output function that can be used for any of the
following:
Closed loop (feedback) boost pressure control for turbo
charged engines with rpm and temperature dependent calibration
characteristic.
Closed loop (feedback) idle speed control.
Control of engine cooling fan.
Programmable on/off control for solenoid or relay
driving that operates according to engine speed and load (eg: - 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 mechanical fuel pump delivery at low engine rpm only).
Fuel used pulse output to electronic or
electro-mechanical counter with resolution of 0.1 litre (or use with trip
computer).
Or even more sophisticated control function such as
servo control of auxiliary butterfly for turbo charged applications
requiring precise throttle control and minimum turbo lag.
Exhaust oxygen sensor input for sensing air/fuel ratio.
Connect the low cost AUTRONIC 02 Sensor directly or for more
demanding applications the AUTRONIC Wide Range Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor and
Meter. The low cost sensor requires no interface adapters or expensive
air/fuel ratio meters, and offers moderate accuracy and tolerance to leaded
fuels. This function can be used to monitor air/fuel ratio during engine
tuning or can be used for feedback control of air/fuel ratio for applications
requiring exhaust catalytic conversion (feature available on request).
Diagnostic/Error indicator of sensor or ECU fault
conditions with memory for detection of intermittent fault conditions. An
external light may also be connected for remote indication of abnormal
operation.
Precise spark advance control strategy for both static and
dynamic operating conditions.
Unique calibration strategy allows accurate control of fuel
delivery under both acceleration and deceleration.
User selectable spark and fuel delivery strategy for
abnormal engine operation conditions to minimize possibility of engine damage
whilst still maintaining engine operation. (eg: - over heated or over
boosted).
Comprehensive limp-home function with user selectable
default settings that ensure engine operation can continue after sensor
failure has occurred.
Full compensation of engine control parameters for engine
operation at any altitude (fuel delivery, ignition timing and boost pressure).
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.
Rev limiter with a soft characteristic that uses a
combination of fuel delivery and spark control.
Fuel pump safety shut-off. Pump stops 3 to 4 secs after the
engine stops.
Unit is ultra light weight/compact yet has sufficient drive
capacity for high power continuous duty supplications. (One unit OK all
applications from motor cycle to large capacity twin turbo engines).
Optional interface unit to allow sequential operation
without the need for separate crank/camshaft sensors or special multi-sensor
distributor (P/N: - ADP102 available Q3-93).
Remote monitoring of all functions using optional telemetry
adapter (available Q2-93).
