ORB Status Function 115 - PWM signal?

Postby cotje on Wed Mar 20, 2024 7:41 am

Can someone confirm if the ORB status Function 115 output signal is PWM based?
The air-table makes me think this is the case, but I'm not sure.

Reason: My new Turbosmart eALV40/Blackbox setup accepts PWM as input for opening the gate. Alternatively it can output it over CAN, but I'm not sure if that can be read with the M800 and combined with ORB.

Any help or insights appreciated!

OK, did some research...

ORB function 115 on an Aux on/off output (no duty-cycle, valve open/closed)
ORB air table is linked to the Aux2 (or Aux5?) function (2 or 8?) and uses PWM/duty-cycle

Hope someone can confirm this.

If so, I would need to disable current Aux2/Function-115 and set up Aux2 for function 2, so the ORB air-table kicks in.

:o Just found the F1-help text is explaining it all... nice case of RTFM!

So, the Air Bypass table is linked to the PWM Idle valve function, which I can just reassign on Aux2, instead of function 115
