Data Parameters Engine Parameters
ACTUAL PRESSURE DISTRIB.PIPE
Range: _____________________________________________________0 to 1000 mbar
Used on ERE/EVE/ASF (IFI Diesel)) systems with turbocharged engines. This parameter
displays the actual pressure in the distribution pipe or intake manifold, indicating boost pressure.
This parameter relies on the intake manifold pressure sensor (MAP).
ACTUAL SLIDE VALVE ACTUATOR
Range: __________________________________________________________ variable
Used on ERE/EVE/ASF (IFI Diesel)) systems. This parameter displays the slide valve actuator
position in millimeters (mm).
ACTUAL VALUE POT.METER VOLTAGE
Range: _________________________________________________________ 0 to 5.0 V
Used on HFM systems. The HFM system does not use a drive-by-wire electronic throttle
actuator. Instead, it uses a mechanical throttle linkage linked to an electronic actuator located at
the throttle body. The actuator has an integral clutch mechanism that overrides the mechanical
linkage under certain conditions. The system is used to control idle, cruise control and
Accelerator Slip Regulation controlled by the Electronic Accelerator/Cruise Control/Idle Speed
Control (EA/CC/ISC) module. The voltage range varies depending on operating conditions.
Higher voltages indicate a greater throttle opening.
ACTUATOR ACT.VALUE POT.METER R1
ACTUATOR ACT.VALUE POT.METER R2
ACTUATOR SIGNAL 1
ACTUATOR SIGNAL 2
Range: _________________________________________________________ 0 to 5.0 V
Used on ME10 and ME20 systems. This drive-by-wire system has no mechanical throttle
linkage. An electronic actuator controls the throttle valve under different operating conditions to
regulate idle speed, cruise control operation, driving on the basis of accelerator position, traction
control (Acceleration Slip Regulation), Electronic Stability Program (ESP) and emergency
running. The position of the accelerator pedal is detected by two potentiometers that transmit
input signals to the ECU. Based on these signals, the ECU in turn controls the electronic throttle
actuator. One potentiometer is in the pedal value sensor and the other one is in the electronic
actuator. The potentiometer in the electronic throttle actuator supplies a reference value for a
plausibility check. In an emergency, if one potentiometer fails, the system switches over to the
second one. A quick plausibility check is to add both actuator signal readings (R1 and R2 or
SIGNAL 1 and SIGNAL 2) together at various throttle positions. They should always add up the
same value, usually between 4.5 to 4.9 volts.
ACTUATOR OUTPUT VALUE
Range: ___________________________________________________________0 to 255
Used on HFM systems. This parameter is the count value of the stepper motor type electronic
throttle actuator. The HFM system does not use a drive-by-wire electronic throttle actuator.
Instead, a mechanical throttle linkage attaches to an electronic actuator located at the throttle
body. The actuator uses an integral clutch mechanism that overrides the mechanical linkage
under certain conditions. The system regulates idle, cruise control and Accelerator Slip
Regulation, and is controlled by the Electronic accelerator/Cruise Control/Idle Speed Control
(EA/CC/ISC) module. Voltage varies depending on operating conditions. The higher the count,
the greater the throttle actuator is opening the throttle valve.
