Recommendation
Use rubber vibration absorbers for soft mounting in the vehicle. To assist the heat flow,
especially if HP injection is active, the device has to be mounted uncovered and air circu-
lation has to be guaranteed around the entire surface area.
Inside touring cars placement passenger side is favored, open connectors should not be
uncovered to vertical axe. It has to be assured in mounting position that water cannot in-
filtrate through wiring harness into the ECU and that the pressure compensating element
and the sealing in the revolving groove do not get submerged in water. Wiring harness
needs to be fixed mechanically in the area of the ECU in a way that excitation of ECU have
the same sequence.

tronic throttle, standard chassis equipment)
– ~ 35 - 40 amps (8 cyl. FDI at 8,500 1/min/200 bar single injection, 2 MSV, 2 elec-
tronic throttle, standard chassis equipment)
– Power consumption of LP-injectors, actuators and coils are to calculate separately.
– The MS 6 power supply is separated into the maintenance of controller and power
stages.
– Ensure controller supply UBAT is activated before the power stages.
– The MS 6 is able to control a main relay or even the power box itself via a low side
output.
– As long as the controller is activated, data logging, telemetry and communication is
also ongoing.
– The engine On/Off switch activates the ignition and injection outputs to enable en-
gine start separately from power supply.

2.3.6 Ignition Trigger Wheel


To detect the engine position and to calculate the exact crankcase position, the system as-
sumes toothed trigger wheels for proper operation. Recommended is to use 60 (-2) teeth
for the flywheel and one teeth for the camshaft detection. Modifications of the mechanical
designs are possible, such as using quick-start production designs for the camshaft or dif-
ferent number of teeth for the flywheel (limited to 30 to 60 teeth).

NOTICE

Less number of teeth reduces the accuracy of the system angle meas-
urement.
Not usable are flywheels with 4-1 or 6-1 teeth. Please follow the description below as re-
commendation for the mechanical dimensions.

Recommended values:
– D = min. 160 mm
– h1 = 3.5 mm
– h2 = h1/2 (important for the use of inductive sensor)
– LSKW = 0.8 mm +/- 0.3 mm
– t = min. 5 mm
– LNSW = 1.0 mm +/- 0.5 mm

Technical Data | 2

NOTICE

All angles are shown and indicated in crankshaft degrees.


The width of the cam trigger tooth is not important, however it is recommended to use at
least 48 crankshaft degrees (24 cam degrees).
The Hall effect signal may be the inversion of its cam trigger: the tooth effects a “low” sig-
nal at the sensor and vice versa for other trigger wheel configurations the indicated values
may vary.

2.4 Disposal
Hardware, accessories and packaging should be sorted for recycling in an environment-
friendly manner.
Do not dispose of this electronic device in your household waste.

TECORPRAIL Battery voltage correction high-pressure injection. Charac-
teristics can be requested at the injector valve manufacturer.

4.1.4 Basic Path of Injection Calculation


The ECU MS 6 is a so called physically based system. This means in particular that correc-
tions are made according to their origin influence (e.g. air temperature, fuel pressure etc.).
For it, the initial engine load signal (throttle angle ath) or the engine charge signal rl (rel-
ative load) is defined as 100 %, if the cylinder is filled with air of 20°C and 1013 mbar
("standard condition"). Corrections related to the air path (air temperature, ambient pres-
sure) are therefore performed to this value rl. Based on this central value most of the rel-
evant ECU signals are calculated, first and foremost injection and ignition.
Due to this constellation changes in the air path are centrally considered for all following
functions, independently whether they are caused by ambient influences, mechanical
changes of the intake system or even a change from alpha/n-system to p/n-system.
Using this rl value, a relative fuel mass rfm is constructed. For an operating point of rl =
100 %, a fuel amount of 100 % is needed, if the desired Lambda = 1. All corrections to the
desired fuel quantity like start enrichment, warm up factor, transient compensation, but
also the desired Lambda value and the correction factor of the Lambda control are con-

pendently of the size and other specifications of the injectors.
Next step is the conversion of the relative fuel mass to a desired injection time te. Here
the engine´s displacement, the fuel flow through the injector and influences of the fuel
pressure are considered.

4.1.10 Main Data Labels for Engine Speed Limitation


The rev limiter works in two steps:
– Soft limitation by ignition retardation or cylinder individual cutoff of injection and/or
ignition
– Hard limitation by injection cut off and/or ignition cutoff of all cylinders
To achieve a good dynamic behavior by advanced intervention, the engine speed is pre-
dicted by means of the speed gradient.

Main Data Labels for engine speed limitation


CWNMAX_CUTOFF Codeword for type of intervention during soft limiter:
0 = only ignition retard
1 = injection cutoff
2 = ignition cutoff,
3 = injection and ignition cutoff
CWNMAXH_CUTOFF Codeword for type of intervention during hard limiter:

vior.
TC_GEARNMAXPR Prediction time for rev limiter, depends on the inertial
torque of the engine. If oscillations occur, reduce value or
turn off by setting = 0.0.

4.1.11 Main Data Labels for Cutoff Pattern


Cutoff Pattern
MP_COPATTERN Defines the appropriate cylinders for torque reduction by
cylinder cutoff.
At the beginning of an intervention the next possible cylin-
der for starting the cutoff pattern is determined. Based on
this info the actual pattern is taken out of the map.
Pattern should be defined in view of minimized oscillations
of the crankshaft.
Usually a regular distribution of firing and non-firing cylin-
ders leads to the best result. However, investigations of the
individual engine are recommendable.
For it, cutoff pattern can be also turned on manually via
CUTOFF_APP and CWCUTOFF_APP
Example: 4-cylinder engine
Start Cyl./Cutoff stage 1 2 3 4
1 1 (=0001b) 2 (=0010b) 4 (=0100b) 8 (=1000b)
2 9 (=1001b) 6 (=0110b) 6 (=0110b) 9 (=1001b)
3 11 (=1011b) 14 (=1110b) 7 (=0111b) 13 (=1101b)
4 15 (=1111b) 15 (=1111b) 15 (=1111b) 15 (=1111b)
The cylinders are assigned bitwise, the lowest bit represents
cylinder 1.
Numbering refers to mechanical cylinders, e.g. pattern = 9:
Mechanical cylinders 1 and 4 are fade out.

Notice: This option is also useful for searching a misfiring cylinder. Select one cylinder after
the other during test cutoff and watch your engine.

4.2 Peripherals
Sensors and peripherals can be checked when the system is powered up electrically.
Do not start the engine before all steps in this chapter are carried out.

NOTICE

Make sure the battery is connected properly, all sensors are connected and ground wiring
is fixed before powering up the system. Check all sensors for errors (E_...) and reliable
measure values before starting the engine.

Sensor configuration
The MS 6 has the option to link a lot of functionalities to a possible hardware input. The
chapters “ECUPINS, SWITCHMATRIX and Input Signal Processing” of the functional de-
scription explains the details. All functions of Base MS 6 programs are linked like de-
scribed in the MS 6 documents (e.g. function description ADC_ECU_MAP) or the wiring
diagrams.

Analogue sensor inputs


The physical way of conversion from sensor signal voltage to physical values follow the
same structures. The hardware input may be connected to different kinds of pull-up op-
tions. Inputs with fixed 1.47 kOhm or 3.01 kOhm pull-up resistors are prepared to handle
passive sensor elements, for instance temperature sensors with integrated resistors (NTC-
or PT100 sensors). Inputs without any pull-up resistors are prepared to handle active
sensor elements, which deliver 0 to 5 V signals, for instance pressure-, potentiometer- or
acceleration sensors. Inputs with switchable 1.47 kOhm pull-ups are designed to handle
mainly active sensors with disabled pull-up, but are prepared for future measuring of di-
gital signals. Inputs with switchable 3.01 kOhm pull-ups offer the most options and are re-
commended to link after the standard sensors are connected. The pull-up resistor itself is
not modifiable and for better measure results may be, the version of sensor/mapping line
has to be changed. To activate the Pin-Selection, first the label “PIN_IN_function” has to
be enabled. Error detection of an analogue input signal detects short cuts to ground,
U”function”_MIN recommended to be set to 0.2 V and short cuts to power supply U”func-
tion”_MAX recommended to be set to 4.8 V. Failure are activated after the adjustable de-
bounce time of diagnosis TD”function”. If a sensor error is set, the output is switched to
the default value “function”_DEF.

4.3 Throttle Control


The system supports mechanic and electronic throttle controls.
Using an MS 6.1 EVO device, respect the necessary license for electronic throttle is activ-
ated. Electronic Throttle Control is a safety-critical function. The Bosch Motorsport Elec-
tronic Throttle Control System (ETC) is designed and developed exclusively for use in ra-
cing cars during motorsport events and corresponds to prototype state. Therefore the
driving of an ETC equipped vehicle is limited exclusively to professional race drivers while
motorsport events and to system‐experienced drivers on closed tracks for testing pur-
poses. In both cases the driver must be instructed regarding the functionality, possible
malfunctions of the system and their consequences and must be familiar with possible
emergency actions (e.g. pressing the emergency stop switch or the main switch). The sys-
tem must have emergency switch, whose activation at least cuts the throttle valve actuator
from the power supply. Depending on specific use and/or construction, the safety func-
tions, fault detections and fault responses of the ETC system may differ in several points
from ETC systems used in series production. Hence before each vehicle-commissioning
the system must be checked for accuracy and faultlessness.

the system must be checked for accuracy and faultlessness.
The functionality of the ETC diagnosis and the fault responses are described in the tech-
nical documents, handed over to the customer together with the system. Each driver must
be briefed regarding the system description. Further information you will find in docu-
ment “SICHERHEITSHINWEISE-Systemanforderungen zum Betrieb eines Bosch Engineer-
ing GmbH EGas-Systems” or can be enquired at Bosch Motorsport.
The customer is responsible for the activation of all ETC‐relevant diagnosis and for their
correct parameterization. By disregarding this information the functionality of the ECU and
the safety cannot be ensured.
Notice: For detailed information see function description ETC
The usual route of ETC determines the drivers input measuring the pedal position and
transferring this leading signal via functionality options into the control of an electrical
throttle actuator. Pedal- and actuator positions are generally measured in a secondary re-
dundant way to verify the reliability of the function. To activate the system, first verify the
signal tolerances and error messages by moving acceleration pedal and throttle actuator
manually. An inactive system usually is the result of inverted wired sensor signals or actu-
ator controls. Calibrate the pedal- and throttle positions.
Verification of acceleration pedal signals:
The mathematic value of voltage pedal signal 1 - 2*voltage pedal signal 2 has to be below
0.5 V or below value of “UAPSCM_MAX”.

The conditional function works the following way:


The program always calculates the condition entered in the IF window and checks if the
condition is TRUE or FALSE.
If the condition entered in the IF window is TRUE, the program calculates the condition
entered in the THEN window. The returned value is the content of the new variable
(entered in “Name”).
If the condition entered in the IF window is FALSE, the program calculates the condition
entered in the OTHERWISE window. The returned value is the content of the new variable
(entered in “Name”).
The reset value is always set for the new variable (entered in “Name”):
– before the If-condition becomes TRUE for the first time after power-up
– when the If-condition changes state from FALSE to TRUE.
An example of a condition to set up the maximum front brake pressure is given on the
next page.

– ‘p_br_front’ rises to 30. As ‘p_br_front’ is > 20 (condition is TRUE), the condition ‘max
(p_br_front, p_br_front_mx)’ in the THEN window is triggered. The condition sets the
bigger value as new value for ‘p_br_front_mx’. As ‘p_br_front’ (30) is bigger than
‘p_br_front_mx’ (10), the new value for ‘p_br_front_mx’ is set to 30.
– Although ‘p_br_front’ falls to 25, the value of ‘p_br_front_mx’ stays 30. This is caused
by the THEN-condition, because p_br_front_mx’ (30) is still bigger than p_br_front’
(25).
– ‘p_br_front’ rises to 40. As ‘p_br_front’ (40) is bigger than ‘p_br_front_mx’ (30), the new
value for ‘p_br_front_mx’ is set to 40.
– As ‘p_br_front’ falls below 20, the IF-condition turns to FALSE. Now the OTHERWISE-
condition is triggered. Because the condition ‘p_br_front_mx’ sets the value of
‘p_br_front_mx’ and the value is already set to 40, nothing changes.
– When ‘p_br_front’ rises to 40, the IF-condition changes to TRUE again and triggers the
THEN-condition. Now the reset value (10) is used for ‘p_br_front_mx’ in the THEN-
condition.
– The new value of ‘p_br_front_mx’ is 40 because 40 is bigger than 10.

6.5 Display Switch Module


You can use the Display Switch Module to switch display pages and brightness. The out-
put is a display page or brightness output that can be used in display configurations. The
value sustains over a power cycle.
The conditions for incrementing/decrementing the value can be set freely. The maximum
value can be set as constant or read from a measurement.
The page can be configured to wrap around. In this case, no page down condition is
needed.

The resulting outputs are the display switch value and the input conditions.

Measurement label Function


name page or brightness value
name_dn input condition for decrement
name_up input condition for increment

Example:

6.6 Timer Module


The Timer Module is designed to implement timing triggers, i.e. for rallye stage timing or
minimum pit time calculations. Any event in the system can be used for starting, stopping
and resetting the timer.
Up counting mode and down counting mode are available, triggers are fired at set time
(up counting) or at zero (down counting). The running timer will keep its state over a
power cycle.

The output channels for this module depend on the name used for the module and are
called …_time and …_trig.

Measurement label Function


name_time actual timer value
name_trig trigger set by timer alarm

In this example, the module is named “Timer_Module”. Resulting channels are:

6.7 GPS Trigger Module


The GPS Trigger Module triggers depending on GPS-position, similar to the GPS-laptrig-
ger. There are 2 x 10 GPS trigger points available, 10 in the parameter and 10 in the
macro-based mode.
If the car passes one of the trigger points, an output signal is set to 1 shortly. Each trigger
requires a defined latitude, longitude and detection range.

46 / 80 Engine_Control_Unit_MS_6.x_Manual Bosch Motorsport


Project Configuration | 6

The parameter-based trigger points need to be set manually in RaceCon, the macro-
based trigger points will store latitude and longitude values when the configurable trigger
condition comes true (i.e. steering wheel button). This trigger condition and the detection
range need to be configured in RaceCon.

The GPS trigger points can also be used for segment triggering. If used as segment trig-
gers and i.e. 3 trigger points are selected, the laptrigger module will use the first 3 trigger
points on the list.

Bosch Motorsport Engine_Control_Unit_MS_6.x_Manual 47 / 80


6 | Project Configuration

The channel names depend on the name used for the module, in this example GPS_Trig-
ger. Each trigger has a distance and a trigger channel with the abbreviation m for macro
or p for parameter based. The trigger channel will be set to 1, when the lowest distance to
the trigger point is detected. For the macro-based trigger, the stored latitude and longit-
ude values can be seen with the channels.

Measurement label Function


name_lat interpolated gps latitude
name_long interpolated gps longitude
name_ptrig_1..10 trigger output of parameter based trigger (n)
name_pdist_1..10 distance to trigger of parameter based trigger (n)
name_mtrig_1..10 trigger output of macro based trigger (n)
name_mdist_1..10 distance to trigger of parameter based trigger (n)
name_macro_lat_1..10 stored latitude for macro based trigger (n)
name_macro_long_1..10 stored longitude for macro based trigger (n)

Example:

6.8 CPU Load Limits


As all microprocessors, the two processors of the MS 6 have limited capacities. The current
load of the processors can be monitored using the channel “cpu_load_001” or
“cpu_load_002”. When configuring your device, please make sure the used CPU load is in
a save range below 100 %.
Bosch recommends a maximum CPU load of 85 % (averaged). Exceeding this limit might
result in the MS 6 not being able to fulfill its required measuring/logging/display tasks or
even in crashing and rebooting.
Main factors influencing the CPU load are:
– Number and complexity of math channels
– Number and complexity of conditions
– CAN traffic on both CAN lines
– Logger configuration (total logging rate [kB/s], conditional measurement rates)
To help respecting the limit of 85 % CPU load, the MS 6 creates an error memory entry. To
trigger this error entry, the CPU load must exceed the limit for 5 minutes without interrup-
tion.
When being confronted with this error memory entry (see ‘Error info’ in RaceCon) or when
being confronted with MS 6 resets due to complex configuration setups, please consider
reducing the demands on the MS 6 adapting the influencing factors mentioned above.

Error Memory | 9

9 Error Memory
9.1 Error Memory representing in RaceCon
– Bosch Motorsport devices feature an error memory. Information on detected errors
can be visualized via RaceCon (online measurement) or can be transmitted via tele-
metry.
– Select any configured device of the system and inspect the “error info” folder.

– Adapt the messages to the configured hardware. In general, properties of the error
memory and properties of an individual error need to be distinguished.
– The memory is situated inside the device and non-volatile. As a consequence, an error
which has occurred and has not been cleared by the user will remain in the error
memory even after a power cycle. The error state will then reflect if the error is still
active or not.
– An error is deleted from the list when
– the user actively clears the error memory,
– the user updates the firmware.
– Clearing the error memory
– in the top right corner of the error monitor,
– alternatively at the bottom of the menu bar,
– alternatively reset the error monitor in the measurement folder >CLRERRMON<
= TRUE.

9.2 Writing an Error


For the functional part of the MS 6 system (MS 6-ECU) the error bits are related to the
function and have to be distinguished if the function is activated. If an error is detected,
the information may be shown as part of the error monitor in RaceCon, as display inform-
ation and as measure channel. To support driver visibility, an activated error may activate
also an output to enable the MIL-light (B_mildiag will be enabled).

CW_EM_xxx Individual error related to a function


0 Error will not be stored in the monitor
1 Error is stored in the monitor
2 Not valid
3 Error is stored in the monitor and the MIL condition is switched on

The single error bits may be collected in the error monitor.

9.3 Error Memory Properties


The following property is available for the error memory itself.

CLRERRMON Reset of the error monitor


Error Status /device measurement label error_state
0 No error present in the memory
1 At least one inactive error present in memory, no active errors
2 At least one active error present in memory

If displayed in a measurement sheet, this property value (0, 1 or 2) is translated into a


verbal description.

It is also represented by a color scheme within RaceCon (provided RaceCon is online with
the system):
0 (no error present in memory)

Wiring
Bosch Motorsport recommends using the specified cable material and harness layout for
automotive connectors and wiring applications.
For Ethernet and USB connection CAT5 specified material is recommended and the pairs
and shield connections have to be strictly respected as shown in the wiring diagram.
For USB, the maximum wiring length is limited to 3 m and it is not allowed to be included
into a common harness and also there is no interruption allowed.
Due to installation condition, the length may have to be reduced.

Harness | 12

Keep network wiring in distance to main sources of electrical noise like coils, coil- and HP-
injector wirings and also in distance to any telemetry transmitter.
CAN-networks need a 120 Ohm termination at 2 ends of the wiring.
The MS 6 is able to switch on an internal 120 Ohm termination, set CWCANx_TERM true
to enable the termination.
For wiring layout, respect the common rules of failure reduction like separated sensor
power supply between important system sensors (e.g. camshaft detection) and measure
options (e.g. damper position).
Be ensure HP-injectors, electronic throttles and other high frequently switched actuators
are connected within the wiring limits of 2.5 m and all wires are manufactured as twisted
pairs.
If using a preinstalled production harness, first verify the way of sensor- and actuator con-
trols.
Often production parts have to be connected to 12 V power supply and actuators are
controlled in different ways. The production harness may need to be modified.

Office harness
Reduced layout to realize communication between PC, MS 6 device and Display DDU, re-
commended for flash configuration, display configuration and installation tasks. Bosch

NOTICE

The wiring diagram shows a principle of wiring and connection options.


ECU pin relation may change to customer data application and program layout. Sensor-, actuator- and power supplies may also change to the request of the project.

MS6.X EVO Basic Wiring

IMPORTANT!!!
The maximal total resistance of the wiring line is limited to assure proper
functionality of the component. The worst case value for this resistance
including the ECU resistances is 360 mΩ. The value comprises the resistance
of the lines, the resistance of the conductor paths inside the ECU and the
contact resistances of all of the electrical con nector pins in the line from the
main relay to the ground terminal of the battery. The temperature of the
harness and the ECU have to be considered for the calculation of the
worst-case resistances, respectively. The maximal total resistance of
360mΩ can be split up into the harness resist ance and the ECU resistance,
whereas the ratio of the two parts is not crucial but eventually given by the
ECU design
