RANGE TESTING
The ECU carries out range tests on the inputs after they have passed the validation tests.
The tests are managed by the ECU internal software and vary depending on the engine status.
The simplest range test on a parameter is a check of maximum and minimum limits against predefined values.
Pressure sensors : P0, PS12, PS13, P25, PS3. RTD temp sensors : T12, T25, TECU.
Thermocouple temp sensors : T3, EGT, T5, TC, TEO. Speed sensors : N1, N2.
The ECU checks the sensor output signal and generates a fault message for that channel if the sensed pressure/ temperature is not within the specified maximum and minimum ranges.
If a parameter fails the tests, the ECU sets the validation status to ‘Invalid’ and holds the parameter at its last valid value.
When a parameter passes the range tests, the ECU sets the validation status to ‘Valid’ and the value is passed on for further processing.
