Overview

Power to Win version 9.0 now includes engine protection software. This new feature allows the user to set safety limits for each of the engines temperature and pressure inputs which if exceeded put the engine into limp home mode. The maximum rpm is restricted in this mode preventing any damage to the engine.

A mask time is provided so that sensor spikes or short periods outside the operating limits do not activate the protection mode and inadvertantly shut down the engine.

System Requirements

Any of the following ECU's: 1.0, 1.2, 1.9, 4.0 & X3
Power to Win Version 9.0
Firmware 16.0 or higher.

Setup

To enable this feature open the editor and select the engine protection icon from the function group file folder. Next select the constants group and set the following parameters.

An additional option is the Reset On Power down feature. If selected the ECU must be power cycled to clear the protection codes. The engine will not return to normal operation even if the temp or pressure limits drop within their limits in this mode.
Set the rev-limit when engine protection is active.
Set the delay time before the mode is active.
Define each of the temperature limits
Define each of the pressure sensor limits.
