MoTeC DBW-4 5 Introduction
Inputs & Outputs
Inputs (AV1 – AV8)
The DBW-4 has eight 0-5V analog voltage inputs (AV1 to AV8). These are suitable for Potentiometers, voltage
output sensors and variable resistance (temperature) sensors (these require an external pull-up resistor to 5V).
These inputs are directly connected to the TP & TP2 position potentiometers on drive by wire throttle bodies.
Outputs
All outputs are disabled until the first CAN message is received. Outputs are disabled after no CAN messages have
been received for one second, but will resume once communication is re-established.
When outputs are disabled, all power is removed, relying on a safe return mechanism to return the actuator to a safe
position (eg. The butterfly valve return spring on a throttle bodies).
