D6.10 SYSTEM FUNCTIONS<br />

The functions operated by the system can be grouped in two main sections:<br />

• technical functions;<br />

• safety functions.<br />

Technical functions<br />

The technical functions managed by the system are the following:<br />

• Hydraulic power generating unit control<br />

The electric pump for the hydraulic power supply is managed by an ON-OFF control<br />

system: pump-ON operation is activated when the pressure is ≤ 42 bar, OFF<br />

operation when the pressure is ≥ 60 bar.<br />

• Detecting the driver's commands<br />

This function permits to monitor the commands given by the driver. These are<br />

detected as voltage variations when the steering wheel levers, push-buttons and<br />

switches on the central console or on the dashboard are operated.<br />

• Transmitting information to the driver<br />

This function is used to send display messages, to control the buzzer and the warning<br />

lights (emergency, "automatic", "low-grip", and SPORT) in order to keep the driver<br />

informed on the system working conditions and efficiency.<br />

• Clutch control<br />

This function supplies a "real-time" control of the thrust bearing position, that is the<br />

torque transmitted by the engine to the driving wheels through the clutch.<br />

This function is extremely important to ensure the system performances in terms of<br />

comfort and sports driving.<br />

The clutch is driven by a closed loop control logic: the TCU controls the actuator by<br />

means of the delivery proportional solenoid valve.
