GPRP Rotary

MoTeC’s M1 GPR package is a versatile and adaptable platform for operating port-injected engines. This single product can be configured to a wide range of complexities, from controlling a single engine to a multi-throttle, quad cam boosted engine with two injectors per cylinder that can also include a sequential gearbox and many other features. Configurable engine timing modes accommodate most modern engine drive systems.

Many auxiliary features commonly found on race cars are included, such as anti-lag, driver switches (e.g. pit switch, launch enable, boost compensation), gearbox control, knock control, intercooler sprays, launch control, traction control, gearbox differential, and coolant pumps. Also accommodated are many systems found on modified road vehicles, such as air conditioning.

Features

The GPR Rotary Package is based on MoTeC's GPR Package with the addition of the following rotary engine specific features:

  • Operates 1 to 4 rotor port injected rotary engines.
  • Configurable engine timing modes for common rotary engines. See the Engine Speed Modes section for details.
  • Configurable lead and trail ignition outputs for each rotor. Trailing ignition timing can be set as an angle relative to main ignition (i.e. split angle) or TDC.
  • Configurable on-board knock detection for each rotor with up to two assignable knock sensors and 4 selectable center frequencies.
  • Control of up to three injectors per rotor with user-defined tables to control the fuel contribution of each injector.
  • Engine coolant and oil temperature compensations for engine speed limitation, ignition timing, fuel volume and boost limitation.
  • Supports control of a sequential shutter valve with fuel injector integration as found in the Mazda RX8.
  • Supports control of VFAD, VDI and APV intake manifold valves found on Mazda rotaries.
  • Diagnostic verification of SSV, VFAD, VDI and APV valves via feedback position sensors.
  • User configurable engine efficiency table with adjustments based on SSV, VFAD, VDI and APV valve status.
  • Supports control of a stepper motor-based metering oil pump. This includes diagnostics and a warning system to detect if there is a component failure.
  • Supports dual-speed cooling fans via three relay outputs, as found on Mazda rotaries.
  • Cruise Control for vehicles equipped with DBW.
  • CAN integration, for the Mazda RX8, to enable power steering, transmission and ABS operation. Wheel speeds, steering angle, fuel level, tire pressure monitoring and parking brake data are also received from the CAN bus for use by the ECU.

The following features of the MoTeC GPR Package are retained in the GPR Rotation Package:

  • Closed-loop lambda control support; requires optional LTC with Bosch LSU4.9 sensor or LTCN with NTK sensor.
  • Physical settings for engine displacement, fuel properties and injector characteristics allow for simplified engine start-up prior to tuning.
