MoTeC Overview 5
Setup Parameters
The Setup Parameters allow the ECU to be configured for almost any engine.
The Setup Parameters include Number of Cylinders, Ignition Type, Sensor
Types, Injector Current, Auxiliary Output Functions etc.
The Setup Parameters must be correct before attempting to start the
engine.
ECU Inputs & Outputs
The ECU analyses signals from the sensors, then controls the Fuel Injectors,
Ignition System and other auxiliary devices according to the Calibration and
Setup Data which is stored in the ECUs programmable memory.
