Operation Overview
The MECU receives inputs from various switches and
sensors. The MECU is also connected to the CANbus and
is capable of sending and receiving CAN messages to and
from other CAN enabled ECUs on the machine.
The main function of the MECU is control of the machine
power bands and modes. This is achieved by control of the
engine rpm/torque and the power setting for the main
hydraulic pump.
Internal software data enables the MECU to process inputs
and respond with the applicable outputs and CAN
messages.
