Function description - connecting the special functions

Connecting the special functions

Vehicle without coordinator

In vehicles without coordinator, the special
functions are connected by earthing some of the
EDC control unit pins via connector C107.
The Speed limit 2 function can be connected by
energising one of the EDC control unit pins with
+24 V.
How the different functions are connected is
described in the section Work description.

cardiagn.com
Vehicle with coordinator
In vehicles with coordinator, the special
functions are connected by earthing some of the
coordinator pins via connector C271.
The EDC control unit will then receive a CAN
message from the coordinator about which
function is requested.
How the different functions are connected is
described in the section Work description.

 Function description - Activating the special functions

Activating the special

functions
The special functions can be activated in
different ways depending on the application. It
can be either manually by the driver using a
switch or automatically by a specific device
being actuated.

cardiagn.com
Emergency stop
The emergency stop function makes it possible
to stop the engine quickly in emergencies such
as an accident when operating a crane.
When the function Emergency stop is activated,
the engine is immediately switched off if the
vehicle is standing still. When driving, the
throttle actuation is reduced to idling speed but
the engine is not switched off. This allows the
continued use of power steering for example.
The function is activated by earthing a pin on
connector C107 or C271.
There is a stop button in the engine
compartment in buses.

Function description - engine speed control

Engine speed control

Engine speed control is a name common to four
different functions which are used to control
engine speed. The functions are named as
follows:
Normal hand throttle, mode 0
Limited hand throttle, mode 1
Raised idling speed, mode 2
Fixed engine speed, mode 3
In normal cases, Normal hand throttle will be
used. This means that the engine does not have
any special engine speed restrictions.
It is possible to connect an extra electrical

cardiagn.com
system, so that the correct function is
automatically activated when the unit for the
extra system is used.
If several of the functions need to be used, the
pins can be earthed on the EDC control unit or
coordinator in different combinations via a
switch. More information about this can be
found in the work description.
For a description of how the engine reacts when
each function is activated, see next page.

Torque limitation
Torque limitation is a common term for four
different functions that limit engine torque. The
functions are named as follows:
No torque limitation, mode 0
Torque limiter 1, mode 1
Torque limiter 2, mode 2
Torque limiter 3, mode 3
Normally it is the function No torque limitation
that is used. This means that the engine does not
have any special restrictions.
Torque limiters 1,2 and 3 are activated by
earthing a pin on connector C107 or C271.

Torque limiter 3 (mode 3)

The Torque limiter 3 function gives a torque

curve with a so called early breakaway. The
engine torque begins to decrease at 1000 rpm Nm

Customised torque curve

The Scania Programmer can be used to program

a customised torque curve.
A programmed customised torque curve can be
used to limit both torque and engine speed. It
can be used to obtain a maximum engine speed
to protect a power take-off for example. Unlike
other functions, this function is not switched off
when the brake or clutch pedal is depressed. The
torque is set to 0 Nm to limit the engine speed. If
you wish to limit the engine speed to 1000 rpm,
for example, the torque is set to 0 Nm from
1000 rpm onwards.
The option to program a customised torque
curve has been introduced from 02.98 for MS5.
