ECU Setup (Figure 7-3)
Front Panel Navigation Path: SETTINGS > COMMUNICATIONS > CAN bus SETUP > ECU SETUP
1. ECU Type - For most engines, select Standard. However, there are exceptions. If your engine is a
Volvo, select Volvo-Penta. If you have an MTU MDEC, ADEC, ECU-7/ECU8, GM/Doosan, Cummins,
MTU Smart Connect, Scania, or John Deere, make the appropriate selection. Depending on the ECU
type selected, some parameters may become enabled, allowing you to configure them for the specific
engine. No modification of these parameters is required for the initial setup. Refer to the appropriate
paragraphs in Section 4, BESTCOMSPlus
® Software, for additional information.

1. System Type - This setting is used with dead bus breaker close arbitration. For more information,
refer to Section 3, Functional Description, Dead Bus Breaker Close Arbitration.
2. Fuel Level Function - This parameter selects the fuel type of the machine. If a fuel level sender is
available in a tank, select FUEL LVL. If liquid propane or natural gas is used, set accordingly.
Otherwise, select Disable. This informs the DGC-2020 to display N/A for fuel level on the overview
screen.
The use of a 0 – 10 Vdc or 4 – 20 mA transducer is possible when an Analog Expansion Module
(AEM-2020) is connected. Use the Source setting to select the AEM-2020 analog input tied to the
transducer.
Set the maximum and minimum percentage range for the AEM-2020 analog inputs using the
Maximum and Minimum percent settings. The maximum and minimum range of the AEM-2020
analog inputs are set separately. See Programmable Inputs, Remote Analog Inputs, below, for more
information.
3. System Units - Select English or Metric.
4. Metric Pressure Units - Select bar or kPa/MPa.
5. Number of Flywheel Teeth - This setting defines the number of teeth on the flywheel for engines
equipped with a magnetic pickup sensor (MPU) for engine speed detection.
6. Speed Signal Source - Select whether the rpm source for the DGC-2020 should be the magnetic
pickup sensor (MPU), the generator frequency, or both (MPU-GEN). If MPU or generator frequency is
selected as the rpm source, and the DGC-2020 cannot detect engine rpm, an MPU FAIL alarm will be
announced. If MPU-GEN is selected as rpm source, if the MPU input does not provide valid speed
information, the DGC-2020 will switch to generator frequency as the rpm source, annunciate an MPU
FAIL pre-alarm, and continue running.
