GF54.50-P-2006T Range, Function

Calling up range








The range can be called up on the multifunction steering wheel using the system selection button (S110s3) in the first function of the multifunction display (A1p13). The scrolling forwards and backwards button (S110s1) indicates the range.
To calculate the range the trip computer in the instrument cluster (A1) requires the fuel level in the fuel tank.
The fuel level sensor for the left half of the tank (B4/1) and the fuel level sensor for the right half of the tank (B4/2) are polled by the rear SAM control module with fuse and relay module (N10/2) and the appropriate message is relayed onto the interior compartment CAN.
The instrument cluster (A1) receives this message, evaluates it and displays the corresponding value as the tank content.

As the time is counted only when terminal 15 is ON, the instrument cluster (A1) requires the information regarding the status of terminal 15. This information is relayed by the EIS control module (N73) onto the interior compartment CAN and is read by the instrument cluster (A1). The time is calculated internally in the instrument cluster (A1).

If the displayed travel time or mileage exceeds the maximum display value (99:59 hours or 40959 miles (65535 km)), the travel time and the mileage are automatically reset in the relevant memory. This preserves the relationship between travel time and mileage.
