GP Lite

The GP Lite package is an entry-level platform for operating port-injected engines. This single product can be configured to a variety of complexities, from controlling a simple naturally aspirated 4-cylinder engine to a twin-turbo V8. Configurable engine timing modes accommodate most modern engine drive systems.

Included are a number of auxiliary features such as driver switches (engine map, boost limit, etc.), launch control, and single-stage nitrous oxide injection. The GP Lite also supports many systems found on modified road vehicles, such as closed-loop boost control and fuel control, and includes two definable auxiliary control outputs. The package does not include drive-by-wire, variable cam control, or knock control.

It integrates seamlessly with other MoTeC products such as Display Loggers and Shift Light Modules.

Features

  • Operates 1 to 8 cylinder port injection engines (M130 ECU).
  • Configurable engine timing modes for many common engine types. See the Engine Speed Modes section for current details.
  • GP Lite can detect camshaft position on variable cam engines for timing, but does not provide variable cam control.
  • The TDC setup wizard can be used to set top dead centers on even-fire engines.
  • Configurable ignition output pin for each cylinder allows for coil-on-plug or wasted spark and distributor ignition systems.
  • Dual bank lambda control supported; requires optional LTC with Bosch LSU4.9 sensor or LTCN with NTK sensor.
  • Physical settings for engine displacement, fuel density + molar mass, stoichiometric ratio and injector characteristics allow for simplified engine start-up prior to tuning.
  • Quick and easy engine tuning using the engine volumetric efficiency map.
  • Modeling engine load based on intake manifold pressure and intake manifold temperature.
  • Sensor calibrations available for many common automotive sensors.
  • Fuel transient compensation using fuel film physics modeling.
  • Nitrous system with one activation stage with fuel and ignition compensations.
  • MoTeC Device Support: Shift Light Module, Displays/Loggers
  • Test settings for most outputs, including injection and ignition outputs, to make setup easier.
  • Configurable closed-loop turbocharger boost control (using a normal solenoid output).
  • Coolant fan outlet bracket.
  • Air conditioning support with switched outlet control.
  • Coolant temperature compensations for engine speed limit, ignition timing, fuel mixture, boost limit.
  • Cooling pump output with PWM control.
  • Coolant pump after-run functionality, optionally with additional pump output.
  • Engine speed limitation with ignition cut and/or fuel cut with definable interaction.
  • Fuel pump switched output.
  • Calculation of engine load temperature, allows correction of inlet air temperature (compensation for heat absorption effect, etc.).
  • Flame characteristic achieved by delaying ignition timing to allow enrichment and post-fire combustion of exhaust gases.
  • Closed loop idle control system using ignition and/or idle solenoid.
  • Idle bypass control with stepper motor supported.
  • Assisted engine starting with dedicated fuel volume and idle compensation during crank start and post-start.
  • Configurable security for multiple users.
  • Preset ECU CAN transmit from available common channels.
  • Configurable switches to control ignition timing, fuel mixture targeting, boost limit, flame functionality and nitrous injection.
  • Analog tachometer output with configurable output pin and scale.
  • Using a throttle position sensor for a cable throttle.
  • Vehicle speed measurement using rear axle and wheel speed sensors.
  • Configurable warning system with light output and CAN.
  • Supports sequential and batch fuel injection.
  • GPS acquisition and recording via CAN or RS232.
  • Hard-coded pin inputs to reduce configuration complexity:
    • AV1: Throttle position sensor
    • AV2: Manifold air pressure sensor
    • AV4: Fuel pressure sensor
    • AV5: Oil pressure sensor
    • AT1: Intake air temperature sensor
    • AT2: Coolant temperature sensor
    • Udig1: Reference signal (crankshaft position)
    • Udig2: Synchronization signal (e.g. from camshaft position)
  • 2 auxiliary outputs for PWM control of actuators added:
    • Duty cycle tables using engine speed and throttle or manifold pressure shaft
    • Activation based on intake manifold pressure or vehicle speed
    • Auxiliary Output 1 includes tables for Ignition Timing Compensation and Fuel Volume Compensation
  • Optional channels for additional sensors via input pin, including:
    • Ambient pressure
    • Brake switch
    • Engine oil temperature
    • Exhaust Lambda via LTC, LTCN or PLM for Bank 1 and/or 2
    • Driver Interaction Switches
    • Exhaust Temperature (EGT) via TCA Thermocouple Amplifier
    • Front/rear left/right wheel speed sensors.
