DDEC VI ELECTRONIC CONTROLS APPLICATION AND INSTALLATION
1

INTRODUCTION

DDEC VI is a system that monitors and determines all values required for the operation of the
engine. A diagnostic interface is provided to connect to an external diagnosis tester.
Besides the engine related sensors and the engine-resident control unit, the Motor Control Module
(MCM), this system has a cab-mounted control unit for vehicle engine management, the Common
Powertrain Controller (CPC). The connection to the vehicle is made via a CAN interface which
digitally transmits the nominal values (e.g. torque, engine speed specification, etc.) and the actual
values (e.g. engine speed, oil pressure, etc.).
