Load Sensing

Overview

The Engine Load may be measured in a variety of ways, such as using a Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor (Boost Pressure), a Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor, or a Throttle Position Sensor (TPS). Pedal position may also be used.

MAP or MAF may use Pedal as a backup should the primary sensor fail.

Scaling

The Load Scalar is used to convert the raw ’load’ values into more meaningful physical units.

Pedal as Load

If Fuel Map Pedal is On, then a correction, Boost Correction from the Boost Correct table is used to correct for the change in air pressure entering the engine.

This can result in a more responsive Pedal.

Note the Fuel Pedal map is used instead of Fuel map as the base fuelling in this case.
