Inputs and outputs on ZBR2

All inputs and outputs on the central on-board computer are short-circuit-proof (short-circuit to ground and short-circuit to
supply voltage).
The following values apply to the digital inputs and outputs:

Low level: Ulow = 0 - 4V
High level: Uhigh = 16 - 32V
For their status to be detected, all digital inputs must be sensed at least 3 times before the status at the input is recognised
as valid.
The analogue inputs are configured for a wide range of values as the protective circuits for the individual inputs have different
electrical parameters.
One pull-up resistor and one pull-down resistor are provided for each spare input.
Voltage supply
Terminal 30 battery voltage not carried via the (mechanical/electrical) battery master switch (= not connected) is protected by
a 25A fuse on the central electrical system (A100).
Terminal 30 battery voltage carried via the (mechanical/electrical) battery master switch (= connected) is split into 2 branches
in the central electrical system. Each branch is protected by a 25A fuse.
When the ignition is switched "ON", the terminal 15 consumer relay (K171) is activated and the battery voltage is applied at
the terminal 15 input on the central on-board computer. The terminal 15 input is protected by a 20A fuse in the central
electrical system
The analogue ground serves as a reference for the detection performed by the analogue sensors. The ground contacts are
connected to each other within the central on-board computer.
9/13 127 KO
The voltage is monitored at each terminal 30. 9/18 147 KO
The purpose of terminal 30 (not connected) is to pick up the battery voltage. 9/17 161 KO

Inputs and outputs for stepper motor control

The stepper motors for headlight height adjustment are activated via a serial, asynchronous, bi-directional uniline interface.
The nominal voltage is 24V. The central on-board computer acts as the master. There are at least 8 addresses on the
interface. The connections are internally bridged.
The central on-board computer sends a setpoint to the stepper motors and is then informed about the current position of
the stepper motors.
Diagnosis messages from a gas discharge lamp control unit are also sent to the central on-board computer via this
interface.

Diagnosis interface
The central on-board computer has the following diagnosis interfaces:

Diagnosis based on KWP 2000
Diagnosis via CAN
The "driveline" CAN databus (T-CAN) deals with all the diagnosis functions (on-board and off-board).
End Of Line (EOL) - programming is via the diagnosis interface.
Memory areas and memory size
The central on-board computer has the following memory areas:

Vehicle error memory for on-board and off-board diagnosis
Device error memory
Program memory for user program (updatable)
Program memory for loading program (non-volatile)
Memory for EOL parameters (updatable)
Random-access memory
Memory for "function connection" MUX table (optional expansion option)
The error memories and memories for the EOL data are configured in such a way that their entire content is not changed
following loss of power. The programming times must be kept short if possible. The central on-board computer is supplied
with the user program and the standard set of EOL parameters. After fitting a new central on-board computer,
parameterisation by means of vehicle data file or conversion file is required without fail. Each central on-board computer is
configured for a single vehicle and may not therefore be installed in a different vehicle.
All saving must be completed within 2 seconds after the ignition is switched "OFF" ("voltage terminal 15 off" signal).
Power consumption
Closed-circuit current: <= 3mA when ignition "OFF" (closed-circuit current must be kept as low as
possible).
Overvoltage detection: 32V (detected after a delay).
Protection
The voltage supply comes from the central electrical system (A100).

Deactivating the intelligent auxiliary brake coupling indicator

Coupling (interfacing) is when 2 or more systems influence each other. If the intelligent auxiliary brake coupling is not
operational, the central on-board computer sends a signal which activates the relevant retarder check lamp (H145) on the
instrument panel. This is necessary on slippery road surfaces in order to prevent automatic activation of the engine brake
and retarder following light application of the brakes.

Outside temperature display/black ice warning
The outside temperature is sent to the instrumentation via the "instrumentation" CAN databus and is shown by a symbol and
a text message on the display.
The measuring range is between -40°C and +60°C, the representation unit is 0.5°C and the maximum permitted measuring
error is ± 1°C. When the vehicle is stationary, the outside temperature indication can deviate by several °C as the sensor can
be influenced by the heat radiated from the engine.
If the outside temperature is in the warning range whilst the engine is running, the "outside temperature" warning and the
current temperature appear on the instrumentation display (outside temperature gauge P113). The symbol and text message
on the display are deactivated when the vehicle is at a standstill or when the outside temperature is not in the critical range.

Operating hours/trip operating hours

The trip operating hours are the operating hours since the last reset. The saved operating hours on the counter at the time of
the reset are subtracted from the total operating hours at the time of the trip operating hours request.
The vehicle operating hours are recorded in the vehicle management computer (A403). When requested via keypad, the
data are sent from the vehicle management computer to the instrumentation via the central on-board computer.
If the permanent display option is selected, the instrumentation enquires about the operating hours cyclically.
The trip operating hours are calculated by the vehicle management computer. To do this, it calculates the difference between
the current operating hours and the operating hours on the counter at the time of the last reset.
The maximum number of trip operating hours the computer can record is 99 h and 57 min. The displayed value remains the
same if this limit is exceeded.
This function is not part of the standard specification but is available as special equipment.

Fuel gauges
A total of up to 2 tanks are sensed. Sensing and evaluation of the 2nd tank (special equipment) can be disabled by means of
EOL programming.
The average consumption per 100 km since the last reset (trip consumption) is calculated based on the fuel consumption
and the distance covered. The average consumption is reset using the keypad.
The average consumption per 100 km is calculated based on the total fuel consumption since odometer reading "0" and the
distance covered since then.
The current fuel consumption is calculated based on the currently injected fuel quantity (CAN signal). The vehicle
management computer calculates this value. The function is activated using the keypad.
The tank content is sensed precisely. The sensor input is located on the central on-board computer. This function is activated
using the keypad or when the level falls below 10% of the total fill quantity. If there are 2 tanks, only the activated tank is
generally indicated on the instrument panel. The content of the 2 tanks is indicated on the instrumentation display.
The operating range is calculated based on the average consumption and the tank content. This function is activated via the
keypad or when the operating range falls below 100 km. The total operating range (i.e. with all tanks) is displayed.
The tank quantity is the amount of fuel that has been taken on board. The mileage (km) and the date are saved each time
refueling takes place. The last 30 refuels are recorded in a ring buffer. At least 20 litres of fuel must be added to constitute a
refuel. Refuels of less than 20 litres are added to the last refuel. The amount of fuel in the 2 tanks is detected and can only
be reset using MAN-cats II.
The fuel draw is the amount of fuel drawn from the tank. The last 30 fuel draws are recorded in a ring buffer. At least 5 litres
of fuel must be drawn to constitute a fuel draw. Fuel draws of less than 5 litres are not sensed.
The data are saved when the ignition is switched OFF and when the ignition is switched ON, providing that the data save
conditions are fulfilled. If the date has not changed when the ignition is switched ON, the new value is added to the value
saved when the ignition was switched OFF. The following data are saved when fuel is drawn (fuel draw at road speed v = 0):
Mileage (km) and date

Time for which the power take-off and heating have been switched on whilst speed was 0
Outside temperature or fuel temperature
The amount of fuel drawn from both tanks is recorded and can only be reset using MAN-cats II.
The fuel remaining in the tank or the 2 tanks is indicated on the instrumentation display (special equipment). This display
function can be disabled by means of EOL programming.
The amount of fuel consumed since the last reset is indicated on the instrumentation display (special equipment). The value
is calculated based on the EDC injection quantity. This display function can be disabled by means of EOL programming.
The unit of measurement used to measure fuel consumption can be changed as follows:
When the speed vchangeover < 3 km/h, the current fuel consumption is shown in l/h. When the speed vchangeover > 3 km/h, the
current fuel consumption is shown in l/100 km. The limit value vchangeover can be applied using EOL. The central on-board
computer changes the unit of measurement over to l/h. The unit of measurement used to measure fuel consumption is
changed over automatically and cannot be selected by the driver.

Display in the event of instrumentation failure

If the instrumentation (A407) stops sending data to the central on-board computer, the central on-board computer transmits a
remote frame and asks the instrumentation for information. If it stops detecting information, it assumes that the
instrumentation has failed or is defective because the instrumentation is no longer acting as a CAN station.
The central on-board computer activates the central warning light (H111) directly if the instrumentation fails. This red light
flashes at 1-Hz intervals. Activation is by means of a high level and is output at central on-board computer pin X/14. There is
no pull-up resistor at this output.

Trailer ABS detection

If a trailer is hitched up on the tractor, a current is measured in the trailer ABS circuit to determine whether the towed trailer is
equipped with ABS or not.
The "ABS info." check lamp (H151) signals the following to the driver
Trailer with ABS check lamp "OFF"
Trailer without ABS check lamp "ON"
Alternatively, the electronic brake system EBS sends the "trailer without EBS" signal via the "driveline" CAN databus (T-
CAN) so that this signal can be displayed by the central on-board computer.
A trailer with ABS is detected when the current IABS is in the indicated nominal range. If the current is in the nominal range,
the "ABS info." check lamp (H151) is deactivated. If the current is below the nominal range, the "ABS info." check lamp
switches itself back on and no error message is output.

Monitoring functions
Turn indicator learning routine

The solution described here is merely a temporary solution for a finalised light test (lighting learning routine). Only the turn
indicators for the tractor and trailer are sensed in the turn indicator test.
The turn indicator learning routine enables recording of the currently connected lamp loads as reference values for lamp
failure monitoring and the saving of these values in the non-volatile memory of the central on-board computer.
The following conditions must be met before a turn indicator learning routine can take place:
Road speed <= 3 km/h
Voltage at terminal 15 and terminal 30
Parking brake applied
Engine speed as required.
If the engine is started during the turn indicator learning routine, the routine must be aborted and ignition switched off.
Selecting the turn indicator learning routine type
The driver starts the tractor turn indicator learning routine manually.
The trailer turn indicator learning routine is performed automatically by the central on-board computer when the trailer is
changed.
Exception in case of trailer: If the body turn indicator was changed for the trailer, the turn indicator learning routine for the
trailer must be started manually.
Description of turn indicator learning routine
The turn indicator learning routine is started by pressing the lighting learning routine button (S329). This is communicated to
the central on-board computer via the "instrumentation" CAN databus (I-CAN).
There are 2 defined states based on which the turn indicator learning routine can be started:
If there is a voltage at terminal 15, request the turn indicator learning routine using the lighting learning routine button.
Switch off the starter switch to start the turn indicator learning routine. Once engine speed = 0 has been detected, the
terminal 15 relay is energised. However, if engine speed = 0 is not recognised within the central on-board computer
delayed switch-off time, the turn indicator learning routine is aborted immediately
Alternatively
If there is a voltage at terminal 15, select the turn indicator learning routine from the menu using the lighting learning
routine button.
To start the turn indicator learning routine, press the headlight flash switch for more than one second. The turn indicator
learning routine begins one second after the pressed headlight flash switch has been detected. The central on-board
computer sends a signal to the instrumentation via the instrumentation CAN databus (I-CAN).
As soon as the turn indicator learning routine has been activated, the "light test active" function is set in the central on-board
computer.
The following switch and function requests are then ignored during the turn indicator learning routine:
Flame start system
Left/right turn indicators
Hazard warning lights
Tractor turn indicator learning routine
All turn indicators on the tractor are switched on and off at 1.5-second intervals for a duration of 2 minutes. The turn indicator
learning routine is based on symmetrical detection of the turn indicator loads on the left and right-hand sides of the vehicle.
The central on-board computer is designed for a minimum sensed load of 3 x 21W and a maximum sensed load of 4 x 21W
on each side of the vehicle.
In the tractor turn indicator learning routine, the current is measured in the left and right turn indicator circuits. The number of
detected turn indicator lamps is derived from the current values learned during the turn indicator learning routine and saved.
Non-symmetrical loads are not accepted during a turn indicator learning routine.
If a defective load is sensed, this appears on the instrumentation display. If the lamp load is higher than the learned current
values, the turn indicator learning routine must be repeated. As a result, the central on-board computer repeats the symmetry
check and saves the number of turn indicator lights.
In order to end a turn indicator learning routine with saving of the current values, pressing of the headlight flash switch must
be detected at the end of a cycle (pressing >= 100msec). The current values are then saved in the central on-board
computer.
If the headlight flash switch is not pressed within 2 minutes, the turn indicator learning routine is aborted without saving of the
current values at the end of the current cycle, indicated by the sounding of a buzzer. After an unsuccessful or successful
attempt to save the current values or after the turn indicator learning routine has been aborted, the terminal 15 relay is no
longer energised and the blocked functions are enabled. If the turn indicator learning routine was started by pressing the
headlight flash switch, the terminal 15 relay is not activated. The turn indicator learning routine is complete.
Trailer turn indicator learning routine
The central on-board computer detects whether the tractor is being operated with or without a trailer. As already mentioned,
the central on-board computer carries out the trailer turn indicator learning routine automatically. The turn indicator learning
routine is based on symmetrical detection of the turn indicator loads on the left and right-hand sides of the trailer. The central
on-board computer is designed for a minimum sensed load of 1 x 21W and a maximum sensed load of 4 x 21W on each side
of the trailer.
In the trailer turn indicator learning routine, the current is measured in the left and right turn indicator circuits. The number of
detected turn indicator lamps is derived from the current values learned during the turn indicator learning routine and saved.
Non-symmetrical loads are not accepted during a turn indicator learning routine.
If a defective load is sensed, this appears on the instrumentation display.
If the trailer is changed, the hazard warning lights are automatically activated once when the trailer is connected up to enable
the central on-board computer to sense the lamp current. Based on this information, the central on-board computer
calculates the number of lamp loads on the trailer and saves this data.
Activation is always automatic, regardless of the conditions which lead to aborting of the turn indicator learning routine.
Non-symmetrical loads on the trailer are not accepted in this case either. In this case, an error message is set when the turn
indicators are actuated, i.e. the central on-board computer sends a signal to the instrumentation via the instrumentation CAN
databus (I-CAN).
During the automatic trailer turn indicator learning routine, the trailer hazard warning lights are energised until a definitive
current measurement has taken place.

Monitoring air filter dirt build-up

The central on-board computer monitors the level of dirt build-up in the air filter (dirty filter check lamp H374). This process
involves the measuring of the air filter vacuum. A warning message is output on the instrumentation display when a defined
limit value is exceeded. When the ignition is switched ON ("terminal 15 voltage on" signal) and the engine is running, the air
filter vacuum is measured and compared with a reference value saved in the EEPROM. This value is overwritten each time
the ignition is switched OFF ("terminal 15 voltage off" signal) and replaced by the newly calculated reference value. The new
reference value is saved in the diagnosis memory together with the current mileage (km) and date. It can be read out using
MAN-cats II. However, it must be noted that the vacuum reference value in the diagnosis memory is not overwritten if the
engine run time is less than 10 seconds and if, whilst the engine is running, all measured vacuum values exceed the saved
reference value in less than 5 time intervals of 2 seconds each. In total, 5 time intervals of 2 seconds each are taken into
account in order to calculate the vacuum reference value when the ignition is switched ON ("terminal 15 voltage on" signal)
and the engine is running.

Monitoring tank sensor

The connected tank sensors are monitored by means of a plausibility check. The average fuel consumption and the mileage
covered are determined over a period of 3 operating hours. These 3 operating hours constitute the evaluation period. 2
values – the tank content before the evaluation period and the tank content after the evaluation period – are compared. The
difference between these two values is then calculated. If the consumed quantity of fuel differs from this calculated difference
by at least 10% of the total content of the evaluated tank, the tank sensor for this tank is defective.
If there are 2 tanks, only the transmitter for the active tank is monitored. This monitoring is cyclic, i.e. evaluation starts again
at the end of the evaluation period. For the purpose of the evaluation, the tank fill level is averaged over a period of 10
minutes. Tank sensor monitoring stops when the central on-board computer detects that the tank fill level is insufficient. Tank
transmitter monitoring is not reset following the "terminal 15 voltage off" signal.
The tank sensor detects increases in the fuel quantity. The monitoring must be reset and restarted. A tank sensor error which
is already known can only be reset using MAN-cats II.

Automatic headlight beam regulator (special equipment)

In vehicles with leaf/air suspension and xenon headlights, the automatic headlight beam regulator is enabled by means of
parameterisation of the central on-board computer. The xenon headlights are controlled as a function of the vehicle level and
load. In vehicles with full air suspension, the level is controlled by the ECAS or EFR. Headlight beam regulation is not
necessary.
Each time headlight low beam is activated, there is automatic referencing to stepper motor zero position. The stepper motor
is brought into the programmed zero position. The central on-board computer calculates the number of steps required based
on the height of the rear and front axles. Furthermore, the central on-board computer activates the stepper motors for the left
and right headlights. The headlight position is maintained by a holding circuit.
In order to ensure correct functioning, the central on-board computer has to be calibrated at the end of the line, following
changes to the vehicle body in the field and after exchanging the position sensor. Calibration is also required when the
central on-board computer is exchanged. Furthermore, changes in the wheelbase length require ex factory parameterisation
in order to adjust this value in the vehicle data file.

Lighting control - parking lights

When the parking light switch (light switch S111) is switched on, the central on-board computer activates the parking light
relay (K116). The parking light switch has the task of "waking up" the central on-board computer when the "terminal 15
voltage off" signal is present at the switch-on point.
The current in the tractor parking light circuits is measured in switched-on state for the purpose of lamp monitoring:

The current in the respective tractor light circuits is measured in switched-on state for the purpose of lamp
monitoring:
Side marker light, tractor, left and
Side marker light, tractor, right
The current is measured with a representation unit of 20mA in order to ensure that each individual light emitting diode is
localised in the event of lamp failure (3-4 light emitting diodes in one side marker light). The central on-board computer has a
2A output for the left side marker light and a 2A output for the right side marker light.

Lighting control - low beam/high beam/headlight flash

When the driving light switch (light switch S111) is activated, the power outputs for left headlight low beam (E111) and right
headlight low beam (E110) are also activated.
Only headlight low beam may be activated if:

The driving lights are switched on or
"Terminal 15 voltage on" signal is present (ignition ON) whilst the driving lights are switched on
The headlight flash button/switch (S108) is used to switch between headlight low beam and headlight high beam:
Headlight flash function: Move the headlight flash button/switch to the notched position.
Headlight high beam function: Move the headlight flash button/switch past the notched position; to change from headlight
high beam to headlight low beam, push the headlight flash button/switch back past the notched position.
If headlight low beam and the fog lamps are activated, the fog lamps are deactivated when headlight high beam or headlight
flash is switched on. Auxiliary high beam headlights and fog lamps must not be switched on at the same time. If headlight low
beam, the fog lamps and the rear fog lamp are already switched on, the rear fog lamp is not switched off when headlight high
beam is activated.
EOL programming can be used to define whether the vehicle is equipped with twin headlights or with combination headlights
(H4).
Twin headlights: Headlight low beam and headlight high beam are switched on at the same time when headlight high beam
is activated. The auxiliary high beam headlight outputs and auxiliary high beam headlight relay are switched on when
headlight high beam is switched on.
Combination headlights: Headlight low beam and headlight high beam are never allowed to be switched on at the same
time. The auxiliary high beam headlight outputs and auxiliary high beam headlight relay are switched on when headlight high
beam is switched on.

Lighting control - turn indicators/hazard warning lights

Actuating the left/right turn indicator switch (S108) activates the left/right turn indicator power outputs for the tractor and
trailer with a frequency of 1.5 Hz. All the turn indicators for the direction concerned (left or right) are activated at the same
time.
Activating the hazard warning light switch (S109) activates the left/right turn indicator power outputs for the tractor and trailer
with a frequency of 1.5 Hz.
The turn indicator switch has one momentary contact position (position I) and one contact position (position II) for
right and the same for left:
Position I: Actuate right/left turn indicator switch - flashes during actuation
Position II: Actuate right/left turn indicator switch - flashes continuously
If the turn indicator switch is released from position I, it returns to the centre position. The turn indicator switch is held in place
by a latch mechanism when it is in position II.
The turn indicator switch can be moved from position II to the centre position:
Either manually
Or by means of latch mechanism release (the switch has a built-in electromagnet).
The current in the tractor turn indicator circuits is measured in switched-on state for the purpose of lamp
monitoring:
Tractor turn indicators, front left (H121), side left (H125), rear left (H123) and
Tractor turn indicators, front right (H120), side right (H124), rear right (H122)
and, in the case of trailer operation:
Trailer turn indicator, left and
Turn indicator, trailer, right
If the central on-board computer detects a turn indicator failure, the corresponding check lamp is deactivated. The indicator
outputs continue flashing at a frequency of 1.5Hz. The hazard warning light check lamp (H371) is not sensed.
The left/right turn indicator switch (position I) must not be switched on using the emergency functions (e.g. when the ignition
is OFF).

Lighting control - automatic turn indicator reset (spare)

2 Hall sensors are used for turn indicator reset. The purpose of the Hall sensors, which are positioned on the steering wheel
rim, is to sense the direction of rotation of the steering wheel. When the driver activates the right turn indicator, the steering
wheel is turned to the right (from the sensor standpoint). The Hall element for "right turn indicator reset" is the first to be
energised when the steering wheel is turned to the right.
The Hall element for "left turn indicator reset" is energised late (lagging) when the steering wheel is turned to the right. If the
driver then turns the steering wheel in the opposite direction, i.e. to the left, the turn indicator is reset after one complete turn
of the wheel.
The driver can also manually reset the turn indicator by moving the turn indicator switch in the opposite direction to the
current direction for less than 600 msec. Actuating the switch for longer than 600msec in the opposite direction changes the
direction indicated by the turn indicators.
If the turn indicator switch is held in position (left or right), the automatic reset is overridden until the switch is released.
Automatic reset is also overridden when the hazard warning lights are active.

Lighting control - brake lamp, brake lamp for vehicle deceleration

Brake lamp which comes on when the vehicle is decelerating is special equipment for vehicles with manual gearbox and
standard equipment for vehicles with automatic gearbox.
Brake lamp monitoring
When the brake pedal is depressed ("ERC1 evaluation") or vehicle deceleration is calculated, the vehicle management
computer records the brake signal and converts it into a databus format. From here, the brake signal is sent to the central on-
board computer via the "driveline" CAN databus (T-CAN). The vehicle management computer calculates the vehicle
deceleration. The central on-board computer activates the brake lamps via the power output. If current is measured whilst the
brake pedal is depressed, this indicates a lamp failure in the brake lamp circuit.
In the light test (lighting learning routine), the lamp load in the brake lamp circuit is determined and then saved as a setpoint
in the non-volatile memory.
If the parking lights and rear fog lamp fail, the brake lamp output is activated in dimmed mode by means of pulse width
modulation. The dimmed brake lamps must be as bright as the parking lights. The driver then depresses the brake pedal,
thus activating the brake lamps in non-dimmed mode. The default function for the brake lamps is only activated if no errors
are detected during sensing of the brake lamp current.
The brake lamps on the left of the tractor (H113), right of the tractor (H112) and trailer are always activated at the same time.
If the vehicle is operated without a trailer, any "trailer brake lamp" error messages are suppressed.
Default function for the brake lamp:
If the brake status is invalid or if the connection between the CAN databus (T-CAN) and vehicle management computer fails,
the central on-board computer activates the brake lamp as a function of the vehicle deceleration. If this is the case, the
vehicle deceleration is not calculated by the vehicle management computer but, instead, by the central on-board computer
based on the tachograph speed. This process involves the weighted evaluation of the last 6 CAN messages by the central
on-board computer.

Lighting control - fog lamps

Fog lamp activation enable:
When the ignition is ON ("terminal 15 voltage on" signal) and the parking lights are switched on, the voltage supply for the
fog lamp switch and the check lamp (LED) in the fog lamp switch (fog lamp/rear fog lamp switch/button combination S483) is
made available at central on-board computer output X/12.
The fog lamps are directly activated when:

Ignition "ON" ("terminal 15 voltage on" signal) is activated and
The parking light switch is activated and
The fog lamp switch is activated
The fog lamps are deactivated when:

Ignition "OFF" ("terminal 15 voltage off" signal) is activated or
The parking light switch is deactivated or
The fog lamp switch is deactivated or
Headlight high beam is activated or
The headlight flash is activated.
Note: The fog lamp and auxiliary high beam headlight are realised using an H4 bulb and must not come on at the same time.
Fog lamp bulb failure is recorded by means of an output stage status inquiry.

The rear fog lamp check lamp (located in the switch) is activated when:
The driving light switch is activated and
The rear fog lamp button (S502) is activated or
The parking light switch is activated and
The rear fog lamp button is activated and
The fog lamp switch is activated.
If the vehicle is operated with a trailer, the trailer rear fog lamp output is activated. If the vehicle is operated without a trailer,
the tractor rear fog lamp output is activated. The rear fog lamp outputs are cyclically activated to limit the making current.
The tractor rear fog lamp output or trailer rear fog lamp output and the rear fog lamp check lamp are not operational
when:
Ignition "OFF" ("terminal 15 voltage off" signal) is activated or
The rear fog lamp button is pressed again or
The driving light switch is deactivated or
The fog lamp switch is deactivated.
If current is measured in the tractor rear fog lamp circuit or trailer rear fog lamp circuit, this indicates a rear fog lamp failure.
The following functions are configured via the rear fog lamp:
Default function for the parking lights
The rear fog lamp is automatically activated in dimmed mode by means of pulse width modulation when a current
measurement indicates an error in the parking light circuit. The dimmed rear fog lamp is as bright as the parking lights.
Default function for the brake lamp
If a current measurement in the tractor brake lamp circuit indicates failure of all lamps, the tractor rear fog lamps on the left
(E125) and right (E124) are activated in dimmed mode when the brakes are applied, regardless of whether a trailer is hitched
up or not. If a current measurement indicates failure of all lamps in the trailer circuit when the vehicle is towing a trailer, the
trailer rear fog lamp is also activated in dimmed mode.
When the brakes are applied, the activated rear fog lamp is switched off and on in undimmed mode at 1Hz intervals. If the
brakes are not applied, the rear fog lamp is permanently activated in undimmed mode. The dimmed rear fog lamp is as bright
as the brake lamp.
The default functions for the parking lights/brake lamp are only activated when no errors are detected in the tractor rear fog
lamp or trailer rear fog lamp circuits.

Lighting control - daytime driving lights

Vehicles for some countries in Scandinavia are equipped with a special daytime driving light function. Daytime driving light
control is only activated when the parking light switch (light switch S111) is deactivated. Daytime driving light control has no
function if the driver actuates the parking light switch. Control of the daytime driving lights is also blocked if the parking light
switch is defective or if there is a short-circuit to Ubat or ground on the line.
When the engine is running, the parking lights, the side marker lights and, depending on the EOL parameterisation, headlight
low beam or the fog lamps are switched on in dimmed mode. The daytime driving lights on the fog lamps/high beam
headlights is the recommended version. Xenon headlights must not be combined with daytime driving lights. The operating
voltage of the dimmed lamps is regulated to a parameterisable value of 20V regardless of the vehicle electrical circuit
voltage. Pulse width modulation allows dimming in a frequency range of 150Hz -250Hz.
The dimmed fog lamps are switched off when the driver activates the headlight flash. In contrast, headlight high beam and
auxiliary headlight high beam are switched on. The parking lights and side marker lights remain activated when the headlight
flash function is activated whilst the daytime driving lights are activated.
If the driver activates the headlight flash when headlight low beam is activated in dimmed mode, headlight low beam remains
activated in dimmed mode.

Lighting control - DIM/DIP

Vehicles for the United Kingdom are equipped with a special DIM/DIP function. The DIM/DIP control is only activated when
the driving light switch (light switch S111) is deactivated and the parking light switch (light switch S111) is activated. The
function is also not available if the parking light switch is defective or if there is a short-circuit to Ubator ground on the line and
the driving light switch is not actuated.
When the engine is running, headlight low beam or the fog lamps are activated in dimmed mode. The operating voltage of
the dimmed lamps is regulated to a parameterisable value of 20V regardless of the vehicle electrical circuit voltage. Pulse
width modulation allows dimming in a frequency range of 150Hz -250Hz.
If the driver activates the driving lights, the DIM/DIP control is deactivated and headlight low beam is switched on in non-
dimmed mode and the dimmed fog lamps are deactivated. The DIM/DIP control has no function when the driver activates the
fog lamps, i.e. the fog lamps are activated in non-dimmed mode.
The parking lights and side marker lights must remain activated when the headlight flash function is activated in DIM/DIP
mode.
The fog lamps are deactivated if the headlight flash is activated whilst the fog lamps are activated in dimmed mode. In
contrast, headlight high beam and auxiliary headlight high beam are activated.
If the driver activates the headlight flash when headlight low beam is activated in dimmed mode, headlight low beam remains
activated in dimmed mode.

Lighting control - snow clearing service lighting (spare)

When the driver switches over to snow clearing service lighting, the standard-fit front lighting is switched over to the snow
clearing service lighting on the snow-plough plate by means of an external relay. The central on-board computer reads in the
position of the snow clearing service switch by means of the instrumentation CAN databus (I-CAN) and activates a power
output which is used to control the external snow clearing service relay.
The functionality of the snow clearing service lighting has been changed so that various modes of operation are available,
depending on the central on-board computer item numbers.
The following functions are switched over from the normal vehicle lighting to snow clearing service lighting when
snow clearing service is requested:
Parking lights, left (E109) and right (E108)
Headlight low beam, left (E111) and right (E110)
Headlight high beam, left (E113) and right (E112)
In snow clearing service mode, the fog lamps and auxiliary high beam headlights must be prevented from being activated,
regardless of whether these functions have been requested using the respective switches or not. Activation of headlight high
beam is not prevented.
Vehicles with the snow clearing service function are equipped with left and right snow clearing service turn indicators in
addition to the normal lighting. EOL programming can be used to equip the vehicle with a snow clearing service set-up. If the
EOL parameter is set to "Snow clearing service available", the minimum turn indicator monitoring lamp load increases by 1 x
21W on each side of the vehicle, i.e. the minimum turn indicator load on each side of the vehicle is 4 x 21W. The trailer lamp
test is not affected.

Lighting control - time-controlled interior lighting

The interior lighting is switched on for 20 seconds after the driver or co-driver door is closed. For this to happen, the central
on-board computer is woken up by the "door contact, step, left" or "door contact, step, right" signal and checks the voltage on
the door contact switches. If a door contact switch is closed (door is open), the "step and interior lighting" output on the side
of the vehicle in question is activated. When the door contact switch is opened (door is closed), the "step and interior lighting"
output remains active for 20 seconds (fade-out time). If the driver opens and closes the doors again during the fade-out time,
the fade-out time begins anew.
If the driver activates the ignition ("terminal 15 voltage on" signal) during the fade-out time, both the "step and interior
lighting" outputs (left and right) are deactivated by the central on-board computer. If one of the two doors remains open for
longer than 5 minutes, the interior lighting is dimmed out. This function is provided for all the doors.
Pulse width modulation can be used to deactivate the interior lighting by dimming. EOL programming theoretically allows a
switch-over to constant activation. Even when the battery holding circuit is deactivated, the time-controlled interior lighting
keeps functioning.
The central on-board computer is activated via the "step door contact," input or door light switch and executes the "time-
controlled interior lighting" function.

Connection for auxiliary headlights, headlight high beam/cab roof (spare)

A relay for activating an auxiliary high beam headlight on the cab roof can be connected at central on-board computer output
F2/14. If the driver then switches on headlight high beam or activates the headlight flash, this relay is activated and controls
the auxiliary high beam headlight. The relay can be enabled by means of EOL programming once it has been installed. The
voltage supply – terminal 15 – comes from the central electrical system (A100). From central on-board computer number
81.25806.7010, this function is standard equipment. Older central on-board computers must be enabled by means of ex
factory parameterisation.
Electrical battery master switch

This circuit is used to ensure that the electrical battery isolator switch (Q105) cannot be switched off when the
following input signals are activated:
Ignition "ON" ("terminal 15 voltage on" signal)
Parking lights activated ("terminal 58 voltage on" signal)
Hazard warning light switch actuated
Vehicle management computer delayed switch-off (T-CAN message)
A separate electronic control unit, energised by the central on-board computer via the battery master switch holding circuit
output, is used to activate the electrical battery master switch.
If the central on-board computer detects that the following signals are not available
Ignition "ON" ("terminal 15 voltage on" signal)
Parking lights activated ("terminal 58 voltage on" signal)
Hazard warning light switch actuated
Vehicle management computer delayed switch-off (T-CAN message)
a delayed switch-off time of 60 seconds ensues before the electrical battery isolator switch's power supply is deactivated.
If one of the directly interfaced input signals is activated (when the ignition is switched OFF, "terminal 15 voltage off" signal
and released battery master switch), the batter master switch is supplied with power and the corresponding vehicle function
is executed.
If the central on-board computer detects a high level at the "emergency off info." input, it immediately sends a top priority
signal to the "driveline" CAN databus (T-CAN) and "instrumentation" CAN databus (I-CAN). The central on-board computer
then performs an emergency shut-off within 1.9 seconds. Only the most important current data are saved in the non-volatile
memory during the emergency shut-off phase. These data are designed to ensure that the central on-board computer is
capable of continued operation with the correct and current data when power is restored.

Flame start control

The central on-board computer controls the flame start system. The flame start system is activated as a function of the
coolant temperature when the engine is started. If the coolant temperature sensor fails, the engine oil temperature is used as
an alternative. The flame start is also activated if the engine oil temperature is not available. In this instance, the post-ignition
time is limited to 30 seconds.
The flame start is split into 3 phases:

Preheating time
The flame start check lamp (H101) is permanently activated by the "instrumentation" CAN databus (I-CAN). The flame
start relay (K102) cycles as a function of the voltage at terminal 15. The flame start solenoid valve (Y100) is de-energised.
If starter switch terminal 50 (Q101) is actuated during the preheating time, the flame start check lamp and the flame start
relay are deactivated.
If the voltage is 22 - 32V, the pre-heating time is approx. 23 - 25 seconds.
Ready-to-start time
The flame start check lamp flashes via the "instrumentation" CAN databus (I-CAN). The flame start relay cycles as a
function of the voltage at terminal 15. The flame start solenoid valve is de-energised.
If starter switch terminal 50 is actuated during the ready-to-start time, the flame start relay continues cycling as a function
of the voltage at terminal 15 and the flame start check lamp cycles in line with the flame start relay. The flame start
solenoid valve is activated.
The engine is running when starter switch terminal 50 is off.
Post-ignition time
The flame start relay cycles as a function of the voltage at terminal 15 and the flame start check lamp cycles in line with
the relay. The flame start solenoid valve switches itself on.
If the engine is not running, there is no alternator speed > 0 within the safety shut-off time. The relay, the check lamp and
the solenoid valve are non-operational.
If starter switch terminal 50 is actuated after the safety shut-off time, the relay, the check lamp and the solenoid valve
remain non-operational.

Charge voltage control

Controlled alternators automatically balance out differences of 2V ± 0.5V between the voltage on the battery and the voltage
on the controller. The central on-board computer intervenes in the battery voltage feedback signal sent from the battery to
the controller in order to increase or reduce the charge voltage.
Charge voltage control depends on:

The outside temperature
The coolant temperature/engine oil temperature
The voltage at the battery and
The driving time(s)
The central on-board computer intervenes in the charge current circuit by

Measuring the voltage of the battery at the unconnected terminal 30 line (input) and
Forwarding the control voltage (vehicle electrical system voltage ±1V) to alternator terminal S (output).
In the event of central on-board computer failure or if the central on-board computer has been reset, the voltage remains
uninfluenced by the central on-board computer as far as is possible (voltage deviation between unconnected terminal 30
input and alternator terminal S output <= 0.1V).

Wiper control/variable wiper interval control/washer control

The wiper switch (S108) activates the wiper motor directly in levels I and II. If there is a low level at the "wiper motor limit
switch" input and a high level at the "interval switch" input, the "wiper relay" output is supplied with voltage until there is also
a high level at the "wiper motor limit switch" input. The windscreen wiper then executes a wipe movement. This process is
repeated after a pause. If the driver switches on intermittent operation, a pre-programmed interval time of 7 seconds is
activated.
If the driver then switches the combination switch (S108) from interval mode to "off" position or "level I, II" and then back to
interval mode within a certain time, a new interval time equal to this certain time is set.
The road speed-dependent interval time overrides the wipe interval time. The current road speed is recorded and saved
whilst the new interval time is being set.
If the vehicle speed changes in relation to the saved vehicle speed, the interval time is adjusted:
The interval time lengthens as the driver decelerates.
The interval time shortens as the driver accelerates.
The maximum possible interval time is 60 seconds. If the maximum interval time is exceeded, i.e. interval mode remains non-
operational for longer than 60 seconds, or if the ignition is switched OFF ("terminal 15 voltage off" signal), the interval time is
reset to 7 seconds when the ignition is switched back on.
Important: The "wiper electronics" output must not be activated if there is a high level at the "wiper motor limit
switch" input.
Rain sensor control (spare)

The central on-board computer picks up the rain sensor signal and independently activates the wipe interval relay which
operates in place of the interval switch. Rain sensor evaluation is activated when the wiper switch is in the "interval" position.
The rain sensor signal is controlled by pulse width modulation. The pulse duration indicates the raindrop size and the number
of pulses indicates the number of raindrops.
Windscreen washers
If there is a low level at the "wiper motor limit switch" input and a high level at the "windscreen washer button" input,
the "wiper relay" output is supplied with voltage until there is also a high level at the "wiper motor limit switch" input.
If a high level is detected when the windscreen washer button (S108) is actuated, the "wiper relay" output is not energised
because the windscreen wipers are already operational.
One-sweep mode: If the windscreen washer button is pressed for <= 600msec, only 1 wipe cycle is executed after the
button is released.
Washer mode: If the windscreen washer button is pressed > 600msec, wash mode is activated after a time of 600msec,
measured from the point which the button was pressed.
In both one-sweep mode and wash mode, the "washer pump" output remains energised for as long as the windscreen
washer button is depressed. If the driver then releases the windscreen washer button (low level at "windscreen washer"
input), the windscreen wipers continue wiping for 3 full wash cycles.

Heating, Kongsberg gear shift

At low outside temperatures, the viscosity of the hydraulic oil for the Kongsberg hydraulically operated gear shift (manual
gearbox) falls, resulting in an unpleasant increase in lever forces, meaning that the hydraulic oil has to be heated. This is
done by the heating element for HGS heating. The heating element is controlled by the central on-board computer. This
function is activated by the EOL programming.
The following activation conditions must be met:

Outside temperature < 20°C
Downtime (engine "OFF") > 4 hours
The heating element is generally only energised when the engine is running.
The hydraulic oil must be at a temperature of 20°C (293 Kelvin) in order to ensure good ease of shifting.
The heating element has an output of 2 Kelvin per minute. When the outside temperature is -20°C (253 Kelvin), the
difference is 40 Kelvin (293 Kelvin - 253 Kelvin). In this case, the central on-board computer activates the heating element for
20 minutes when the engine is running.

Audible feedback following interim lubrication request
Conditions for pump activation in normal mode as follows

Ignition ON ("terminal 15 voltage on" signal), engine running and
Vehicle speed >= 6 km/h and
Lubrication interval time expired (engine run time added); engine run time saved when ignition is switched OFF ("terminal
15 voltage off" signal)
Once the central lubrication pump motor has been energised, the "pump strokes" pulse for pump stoke feedback is
measured within the specified waiting time. The central lubrication pump is de-energised when the number of pump strokes
defined using EOL programming has been measured and an open contact has been detected at the "pump strokes" input.
The lubrication interval time and the pump strokes can be adjusted by means of MAN-cats. In this instance, the time that has
already elapsed since the last lubrication is taken into account when defining a new lubrication interval time. If the time that
has already elapsed since the last lubrication exceeds the newly parameterised lubrication interval time, new lubrication
takes place.
An on-going lubrication cycle is stopped if the road speed falls below 3 km/h. If the cycle is stopped, the pump strokes that
have already been counted are saved. If the ignition is switched OFF ("terminal 15 voltage off" signal) and the lubrication
cycle is stopped, the number of effected pump strokes is stored in the non-volatile memory. As soon as the speed reaches
>= 6 km/h again, the lubrication cycle continues automatically. If the driver switches off the ignition during the lubrication
cycle, the lubrication cycle continues when the ignition is switched back ON ("terminal 15 voltage on" signal), providing that
the conditions for lubrication are fulfilled. The lubrication cycle is ended when the number of pump strokes defined by EOL
programming is reached.
The conditions for pump activation in the case of interim lubrication are as follows:
Ignition "ON" ("terminal 15 voltage on" signal) and
Button for interim lubrication depressed for a time >= 2 seconds. Interim lubrication takes place only once (even if the
button remains permanently depressed).
The triggered interim lubrication is indicated on the instrumentation display once it has been accepted. In addition, there is
audible feedback lasting 200 msec as soon as interim lubrication is executed. If the ignition is switched OFF ("terminal 15
voltage off" signal) during interim lubrication, the remaining pump strokes requiring lubrication are lost.
Interim lubrication is executed regardless of the vehicle speed and whether the engine is running or not.
The lubrication interval counter is zeroed once interim lubrication is complete. If the ignition is switched OFF ("terminal 15
voltage off" signal) during interim lubrication, the lubrication interval counter is not reset to 0.
The "interim lubrication" input is deactivated during cyclic lubrication. Interim lubrication can be triggered as often as required.
Grease quantity indication

If there is a low signal at the "grease quantity" input, a corresponding error message with text is sent to the instrumentation
display via the "instrumentation" CAN databus (I-CAN).
