MOTEC’S DISTINCTIVE RANGE OF M1 ECU SOLUTIONS

• Targeted Solutions – We’ve done the configuration work for you, tailoring the ECU firmware to a specific vehicle or engine. In some cases this includes integration with vehicle control systems beyond the engine, for example, stability control, cruise control. Complete Plug-In kits are available for some applications, including any additional hardware and wiring looms as required. See targeted solutions for Vehicle, Bike, PWC or Snowmobiles
• GP (General Purpose) Solutions – MoTeC’s GP Solutions offer the flexibility to suit numerous port and direct injected gasoline engines. Comprising of:
  – GPA (Advanced)
  – GPR (Race)
  – GPRP (Race with Paddle shift)
  – GPRDI (Race with Direct Injection)
  – GPRPDI (Race with Paddle Shift and Direct Injection)
  These variants that can be configured to suit a wide range of applications.
• Development Solutions – Those who are skilled at coding can now develop fully customised control strategies at the firmware level, creating unique ECU functionality for themselves or other customers. Developers can build custom controls into an existing package, or create a new project from scratch. In either instance, the resulting firmware can be loaded into a single Development ECU or rolled out for customers around the world to purchase.
• Ruggedised – Sometimes an extra level of protection for electronic components is required, such as marine applications or environments subject to dirt or dust. Our Ruggedised M1 hardware ensures maximum longevity under these extreme conditions.

CONFIGURATION
The M1 series ECUs come with three configuration options.
Locked Configuration
A locked configuration is appropriate when an ECU contains specific firmware to suit the application. The user can tune the engine in the normal way but the ECU cannot be re-configured for another application.
Standard Configuration
The standard configuration allows the user to load a selection of firmware packages available from MoTeC. They incorporate different levels of functionality and the user can choose one to suit their requirements. Additional packages can be loaded into the ECU as and when requirements change.
Open Configuration
The open configuration provides a fully flexible ECU solution that can be precisely tailored to individual requirements. Third party developers can be trained to use MoTeC M1 Build software to develop their own control strategies.
Intellectual property is protected by the M1 ECU’s security system and remains with the ECU owner.

SECURITY
The M1’s advanced security system is based on public-key cryptography, the cornerstone of secure internet transactions, so it is virtually impossible to change the ECU function without authorised permission.
Security is enforced by the ECU and protected by a microprocessor with integrated measures to prevent tampering.
A password feature grants different levels of access for different users e.g. an engine tuner, a drive train tuner, and a data analysis engineer.
This is also suitable for Control ECUs. Scrutineering teams can have access to extra information and are able to lock down selected parts of the ECU, while other team members can access selected tuning parameters.

CATEGORY MANAGEMENT
The combination of an advanced security strategy, configurable firmware and a high performance processor make the M1 ECU an ideal choice for categories with restrictions in place for either performance parity or cost containment. Firmware can be written specifically for the category, limiting the functionality to the class requirements.
Multiple data logging sets are available, which can be partitioned with restricted access to allow generation of both judicial (scrutineering) and team data from the same device. The M1 ECU’s security system prevents unauthorised access to data and implementation of unspecified functionality.

UPGRADES
? Various Logging Options are available.
The logging licence determines the number of channels and the sample rates available, there are 3 levels available:
? Logging Level 1 Licence
Comes standard with the product. This diagnostic logging includes a fixed log set and rate.
? Logging Level 2 Licence
Is an optional upgrade which includes one fixed log set, 200 channels (including diagnostics) and a maximum 200 Hz sample rate.
? Logging Level 3 Licence
Is an optional upgrade which includes eight fixed log sets, 2000 channels and a maximum 1000 Hz sample rate.
? Configuration:
