Engine/Gear Parameters (SENR9517-22)

SMCS - 1901 i02203044

"Lower Gears Engine RPM Limit"


The engine will accelerate at a slower rate when this limit is exceeded under normal driving
conditions. This parameter is used to encourage the driver to shift to the next highest gear.

Table 1

Minimum Maximum Default


1500 rpm TEL rpm TEL rpm

"Lower Gears Turn Off Speed"


The "Lower Gears Turn Off Speed" parameter is the vehicle speed when the "Lower Gears Engine
RPM Limit" is shut off. This must be matched with the "Lower Gears Engine RPM Limit" to the
specific drive train for optimum performance.

Table 2

Minimum Maximum Default


2 km/h (1 mph) 24 km/h (15 mph) 2 km/h (1 mph)

"Intermediate Gears Engine RPM Limit"


This parameter is similar to the "Lower Gears Engine RPM Limit". The engine will accelerate at a
slower rate when this limit is exceeded under normal driving conditions. This parameter is
typically programmed to a slightly higher rpm than the "Lower Gears Engine RPM Limit".

Table 3

Minimum Maximum Default


1500 rpm TEL rpm TEL rpm

"Intermediate Gears Turn Off Speed"


This parameter is similar to the "Lower Gears Turn Off Speed". This parameter is typically
programmed to a slightly higher vehicle speed than the "Lower Gears Turn Off Speed".

Table 4

Minimum Maximum Default


16 km/h (10 mph) 80 km/h (50 mph) 16 km/h (10 mph)
"Gear Down Protection RPM Limit"
This parameter is the engine rpm limit when the vehicle speed is above the "Gear Down
Protection Turn On Speed". This is a hard limit. The Engine Control Module (ECM) will not allow
fuel to the engine above this limit. This parameter is used to encourage the driver to shift into
overdrive or into top gear.

Table 5

Minimum Maximum Default


1700 rpm TEL rpm TEL rpm

"Gear Down Protection Turn On Speed"


This parameter is the vehicle speed when the "Gear Down Protection RPM Limit" is turned on.
This must be matched to the specific drive train for best performance. Above this "Vehicle Speed
Limit", the engine rpm will be limited by the "Gear Down Protection RPM Limit".

Table 6

Application Minimum Maximum Default


GM 48 km/h (30 mph) 121 km/h (75 mph) 121 km/h (75 mph)
Other 48 km/h (30 mph) 204 km/h (127 mph) 204 km/h (127 mph)

"Top Engine Limit (TEL)"


This parameter is the maximum engine rpm when the engine is under load. The engine will still
achieve rated rpm under no load conditions.

Table 7

Minimum Maximum Default


2640 rpm 2640 rpm 2640 rpm

Note: Select ratings have a different "Top Engine Limit".

"Low Idle Engine RPM"


The "Low Idle Engine RPM" is the minimum engine rpm.

Minimum Maximum Default


700 rpm 800 rpm 700 rpm

"Transmission Style"
This parameter is used to tell the ECM the type of transmission that is installed in the vehicle.
This parameter is used to configure the ECM for the following inputs:

Brake switch 2

Clutch switch

Neutral switches

The ECM must be programmed to one of the following options if an Allison Wt Automatic
Transmission is installed:

AT/MT/HT Option 1

AT/MT/HT Option 2

AT/MT/HT Option 3

AT/MT/HT Option 4

If any other automatic transmission is installed, program this parameter to one of the following
options:

Automatic Option 1

Automatic Option 2

Automatic Option 3

Automatic Option 4

If one of the manual options is selected, J1/P1:24 is used to receive a signal from a clutch pedal
position switch. The message is also available from one of the supported J1939 sources. If one
of the transmissions with a neutral switch is selected, J1/P1-62 Input #12 must receive a signal
from a transmission neutral switch. This message is also available from one of the supported
J1939 sources. If one of the transmissions with two brake switches is selected, the second
brake switch must be connected to J1/P1:64 Input #13.

"AT/MT/HT Part Throttle Shift Speed"


The Allison AT/MT/HT Automatic Transmissions require an input from the ECM to regulate the
transmission shifting. The ECM monitors the accelerator pedal position, the engine speed, the
vehicle speed, the load and the cruise control status in order to determine if the transmission
should use full throttle, closed throttle shift modulation, or full throttle shift modulation. The
"AT/MT/HT Part Throttle Shift Speed" parameter provides three different settings for shift
modulation.

Table 11

Alternative Default
Low (80% Enable/65% Disable)
High (60% Enable/45% Disable)
Medium (70% Enable/55% Disable)
Programming the "Transmission Style" to "AT/MT/HT Option 1", "AT/MT/HT Option 2",
"AT/MT/HT Option 3", or "AT/MT/HT Option 4" activates Output #7. This output controls a
transmission interface relay that is connected to a modulator in the Allison transmission.

The high setting will cause the transmission to remain in a lower gear longer before upshifting to
the next gear. The medium setting is a compromise between the default setting and the high
setting.

"Governor Type"
The "Governor Type" parameter defines the type of governor that is used to control the engine.
Select the "Full Range" option for manual transmissions and manual transmissions that are
electronically shifted. Select the "Min/Max" option or the "Min/Max With Speed Control" for
automatic transmissions.

The full range governor provides control that maintains a constant engine speed for a throttle
position. The "Min/Max" setting only allows the ECM to govern the engine speed when the
engine speed is at the minimum allowable engine speed or at the maximum allowable engine
speed. When the engine is operating between the engine speed limits, the "Min/Max" setting only
allows the ECM to govern the engine in order to provide constant power across the engine speed
range.
