a) O pino 5 no conector CNA é conectado à demanda de deslocamento do FWD (lado da unidade de acionamento). O pino 15 no conector
CNA é conectado à demanda de deslocamento REV (lado das rodas de carga). As demandas de viagem podem estar ativas em alta (mais
bateria) ou baixa (menos bateria). Especifique o modo desejado configurando o Jumper J7.
As necessidades de deslocamento são necessárias somente para manter o controle de direção ativo após o alinhamento quando o
caminhão estiver em movimento.
NOTA: As entradas de demanda de viagem não são conectadas quando o sistema de transmissão CAN BUS é usado.
b) O dispositivo de estado é um extra opcional (Campainha ou Lâmpada de 12VCC máx 40mA) que fornece um
aviso sonoro ou visível quando ocorre um alarme de direção. Ele deve ser conectado entre o conector CNB Pin # 2
(alimentação de 16Vdc) e o CNB Pin # 8 (coletor de driver de dispositivo).
c) The Eps-Ac provides an internal safety contact accessible through connector CNB pin #7 and CNB pin # 1. It
should be used to stop the traction and to enable an electromechanical brake when a steering alarm occurs. This
safety contact is closed when the key switch is turned on. The contact opens where there is a steering alarm.This
safety contact is floating, that means it's possible to connect it either to the plus battery or to the minus battery.
Ensure that the pin #7 is connected to an equal or higher voltage than pin #1.
For safety two cascaded safety switches are internally connected between pin # 7 and pin #1. The first is
managed by the Main processor, the second is managed by the supervisor processor.
NOTE: If the safety switch is connected in series with external switches (seat switch, tiller switch or
similar) it's recommended that the steering safety switch should be directly connected to the supply
source (plus battery or minus battery) with no interposed switches. (it should be the first in the chain:

d) Pin #18 of CNA connector provides 0 to 4.5Vdc output to control the steering angle indicator gauge Leds. Pin #
8 of CNA connector provides negative to the steering indicator.
NOTE: Not used with CAN BUS transmission.
e) The CAN connections are provided on the Pin #3 and Pin#4 CNA connector for the High reference and on Pin
#13 and Pin #14 for the Low reference. They are two because our CAN should be externally loaded with a 120
ohms resistance to terminate the transmission line.
f) The Eps_ac provides an encoder interface. It is necessary for accurate speed control and safety improvement.
The encoder channels are connected on Pin #16 and Pin #17 of connector CNA. The encoder supply is provided
through the Pin #6 of connector CNA and a Gnd reference on the Pin #7 of connector CNA (see fig. 6.1.2).
NOTE: All pins of the connectors are not always used, their use depends on the electrical system fitted
on the truck, for this reason, it is advisable to consult paragraphs of this section together with the
electrical drawings of the truck in question.

1 NK1 This is the second (lower potential) safety switch connection.The first connection is on Pin #7. If jumper J2
is closed, the Pin # 1 is ground referenced and NK1 is at ground (GND) potential. If jumper J2 is open, NK1 is
floating. (It assumes an externally applied potential). NK1 must be connected to an equal or lower potential than
K1 (Pin #7 of CNB).
2 +16 Output for internally provided +16Vdc stabilized supply. It may be used for the status device supply. The
maximum rated output is 40mAmps. Warning: do not short circuit this pin because it is common with the Electric
Power Steering card supply.
3 DL It is internally connected to battery negative (GND). For the stepper motor application this is a stepper motor
line (called D line).
4 GND This is internally connected to ground (battery minus) reference. It is used for the GND reference of the
stepper motor.
5 GND This is internally connected to ground (battery minus) reference. It is used for the GND of the steer
position sensor.
6 LLS Left (CCW) Limit Switch. It's possible to stop steering in the direction that causes negative signal from the
tacho-generator by closing the connection between LLS (Pin #6) and negative (GND Pin#5). Therefore, connection
of a normally open switch between Pin #6 and Pin #5 acts as a Counter-Clockwise steering limit switch.NOTE:
Not used whenthe encoder is present on the steering motor
7 K1 This is the first (higher potential) safety switch connection.The second connection is on Pin #1. This normally
open contact is closed on the GND by switching on the key. The contact opens in case of steering alarm.
8 BUZZ This connection provides a ground line to switch on the status device (it could be a 12Vdc buzzer device).
It can sink up to 40mAmps. This status device encodes steering alarm conditions.
10 AUT This is the automatic request input. It can be either an active level or edge detection depending by the
AUTO INP ACTIVE setting. When the selected event happens an automatic centering request will immediately
start. This input pin may be connected to:
1. An external ground through a switch.
2. An internal ground (Pin #4) through a switch.
3. An external open collector transistor (For example an output of a photocell circuit).
To recognize an automatic request each level should remain for at least 30msec.
12 RLS Right (CW) Limit Switch. It's possible to stop steering in the direction that causes positive signal from the
tacho-generator by closing the connection between RLS (Pin #12) and negative (GND Pin#5). Therefore,
connection of a normally open switch between Pin #12 and Pin #5 acts as a Clockwise steering limit switch.
NOTE: Not used when the encoder is present on the steering motor

Functional truck characteristics such as accelaration, intensity of plugging braking, maximum current and more,
can simply be adapted to any specific needs by varying the values of the parameters using the hand set in the
PARAMETER CHANGE menu.
10 levels of intensity are available for each parameter.
After modifying each single parameter, it is possible to immediately verify the effect on truck performance without
leaving the programming menu.
On completion of programming, that must be carried out following the instructions laid out in this chapter, it is
necessary to disconnect the power supply to the electronic controller by switching the key switch to 'off', in this
way, the modifications will be stored in the controllers non-volatile memory.
Instructions for programming the parameter change sub-menu using the hand set are on following page.
NOTE: The settings for the various models using this equipment are contained in the service manuals
of the specific models.

1) SPEED LIMIT
Regulates the MDU (Motor drive unit) maximum turning speed.
- Level 0 is for slow turning.
- Level 9 is for fast turning.
Intermediate levels are for proportionally increasing speed settings.
2) SENSIBILITY
It provides a non-linear relationship between MDU steering speed and tach-generator voltage when low. This
parameter produces increasing steering sensitivity with small changes in steering input.
- Level 0 is for steering response that is less sensitive to small steering wheel movements.
- Level 9 is for steering response that is very sensitive to small steering wheel movements.
Intermediate levels are for proportionally increasing speed setting. This parameter does not influence the
maximum MDU steering rate.
3) CREEP SPEED
Provides an increased torque for slow turning steering wheel. It's used to compensate the drop in V/f (flux) when
the frequency applied to the motor is low.
- Level 0 is for no torque compensation
- Level 9 is for a very strong torque compensation
Intermediate levels are for proportionally increasing torque setting. This parameter is useful in two ways. First of
all it guarantees a large torque for very slowly turned handwheel. Secondly this large torque allows it to neutralize
the elastic tire effect when the handwheel is close to being released it.
4) COMPENSATION
Provides stator flux compensation. The ideal motor control provides constant flux value for each working
frequency. While CREEP SPEED provides low frequency feedforward flux compensation effect, COMPENSATION
produces a feedback flux compensation effect.
- Level 0 means no compensation but a flux degradation when current is too high
- Level 1 compensate the drop on power mosfets and cables
- Level 2 compensate the drop on power mosfets, cables and stator resistance
- Level 3 means no compensation.
This should normally be set to Level 2 as a strong compensation reduces the slip (difference between the speed
and the frequency applied to the motor). An exception can be a smaller motor (small torque required) in which a
strong flux (and a greater magnetization current) is not necessary (Level 0).
5) ANTIROLLBACK
Adjusts the stand still torque value with a released handwheel. This setting is a percentage of Imax. The stand still
torque is used to neutralize the elastic tire effect which would move the MDU an angle back in the direction it was
coming from. This parameter is specified as a percentage of the maximum current.
6) AUXILIARY TIME
Defines the time, after the handwheel is released, for which the stand still torque is applied.
- Level 0 is for no stand still torque
- Level 1 is for a short application of a stand still torque (about 6sec)
- Level 9 is for a long application of a stand still torque (about 90sec)
Intermediate levels are for proportionally increasing auxiliary time.
7) AUX FUNCTION 3
Through the Can comunication, the traction chopper supplies the truck speed information to the EPS-AC. The EPS-
AC can reduce the steering motor speed as the truck speed increase (only when steering wheel is turned quickly).
Aux function 3 makes it possible to alter the amount of the max steering speed reduction with increasing truck
speed, if traction speed goes over 70% of MAX speed, steering speed is reduced to the following percentages of
steering speed at zero traction speed:
aux function #3=0 100%
aux function #3=1 89%
aux function #3=2 80%
aux function #3=3 71%
aux function #3=4 62%
aux function #3=5 54%
aux function #3=6 45%
aux function #3=7 36%
aux function #3=8 28%
aux function #3=9 20%
8) AUX FUNCTION 2
Aux function 2 makes it possible to alter the amount of the max steering speed reduction with increasing truck
speed (only when steering wheel is turned quickly), if traction speed goes over 70% of MAX speed, steering speed
is reduced to the following percentages of steering speed at zero traction speed:
The TESTER function allows real time monitoring of traction command and enable sensors, current and voltage on
the traction motor, and other imporatnt information, all in table form that can be usefull for troubleshooting. The
TESTER functions list is common for applications with or without the automatic centering model. Each TESTER
function provides the measurement, executed by the software, of the specified parameter. Descriptions of each
TESTER function are given below.
NOTE: The settings for the various models using this equipment are contained in the service manuals
of the specific models.
