AUTRONIC SEQUENTIAL ENGINE MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS
SPECIFICATION FOR MODELS SM2
OVERVIEW
The Autronic SM2 Sequential Engine
Management Systems are versatile engine management controls for all engine
performance upgrades. Their sophisticated features allow these products to
provide performance that rivals even the most expensive European systems costing
3 to 10 times more.
Included are features normally only found in Formula 1 level
applications, yet this system has the flexibility to be used by the every day
engine tuner for almost any high performance upgrade.
A user friendly ‘IBM’ compatible lap-top program allows
the user to select the degree of sophistication required for each application.
This program, in combination with the intelligence with 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 available in future).
The SM2 system combines a sophisticated engine management
system with the convenience of a powerful data logger that can simultaneously
log both engine operation and numerous other vehicle functions.
USAGE
These systems can cater for the requirements of virtually any
spark ignition engine, including the following:-
High output supercharger or turbocharger engines, with
either multi point and/or centre point injection.
Rotary (Wankle) and two strokes engines.
Engines having uneven firing sequence 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 applications 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 8 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 (0 to 29.4 PSI) and 0 to 300Kpa (0 to 44.1
PSI) available from stock 0 to 450Kpa (0 to 66.1 PSI) available on request.
Single coil distributor, twin coil distributor or multicoil
distributor-less ignition configurations are possible on most engines.
Closed loop (feedback) boost pressure control for turbo
charged engines with multiple calibration curves selectable by switch input or
road speed (eg:- lower boost curve for use in low gear).
Closed loop (feedback) idle speed control.
Exhaust oxygen sensor input for sensing air/fuel ration.
Can also be used with the AUTRONIC Wide Range Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor to monitor
air/fuel ration in motor sport application, or can be used for feedback
control of air/fuel ratio for use with catalytic converter (feature available
on request).
Diagnostic/Error indicator of sensor or ECU fault
conditions with memory for detection of intermittent fault conditions.
Measurement of and correction for exhaust back pressure
(applicable to turbo charged engines).
Control of engine cooling fans and coordination with air
conditioner operation.
Programmable on/off output 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).
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 minimise possibility of engine damage
whilst still maintaining engine operation. (eg:- over heated or over boosted).
Comprehensive limp-home functions with selectable default
settings that ensure engine operation can continue after sensor failure has
occurred.
User defined proportional output function that can be used
for additional functions as outlined in 10 above or for a more sophisticated
control function such as servocontrol of auxiliary butterfly for turbo charged
applications requiring precise throttle control and minimum turbo lag.
Full compensation of engine control parameters for engine
operation at any altitude (fuel delivery, ignition timing and boost pressure).
Adaptive learning (with memory) to minimise 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 sec after the
engine stops.
Bi-directional input/output line for simultaneous
connection of remote adjusting unit and combustion knock detection unit. The
adjusting unit allows rotary switch offset corrections to be made to spark
timing, mixture strength and boost pressure settings (adjusting unit available
Q4-93, Knock control Q1-94).
Standard unit is light weight/compact yet has sufficient
drive capacity for high power continuous duty applications (one unit suitable
for all applications from motor cycle to large capacity twin turbo engines).
User configurable data logging of up to 17 channels with
the selected channels being sampled as fast as50 times per second. With 128K
bytes of non volatile memory (Model designation SM3).
Auxiliary analog input channels (4 of) for user defined
data logging
Auxiliary digital input channels (2 of) for user defined
data logging
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).
Fuel used pulse output to electronic or electro-mechanical
counter with resolution of 0.1 litre (or use with trip computer).
Remote monitoring of all functions using optional telemetry
adapter (available Q2-93). ECU can perform simultaneous logging and telemetry.
