Opening Up the Architecture …EFX Controllers & Control F(X) Application Software Single CAN Interface Required for Ultronics Many EFX Controller Options
Opening Up the Architecture …Example: Third Party Controllers and Software OEM Programmable Hardware Application Software Development Tool John Deere John Deere Vehicle Controllers John Deere vehicle application software: C++ or others Plus1 Software: Proprietary (must learn tool to use) Sauer-Danfoss MC050, MC024, etc. V2SI with Ultronics Valve Rexroth RC2-2/20, RC4-4/20, etc. BODAS Software V2SI Specification Enables Control by Virtually any Controller
Valve F(X) Configuration Software Valve performance derived and tuned through software Valve control algorithm Valve control variables (gains, margins, pressures, etc.) Maximum control pressures Software reliefs Pressure filters Rapid and Broad Tuning Capability Provides Customized Control Solutions
Valve F(X) Configuration Software Integrated valve monitoring and control Quick and easy diagnostic tool Real-time valve and system monitoring Real-time Data Monitoring and Control Enable Rapid Valve and System Diagnostics
Control Modes Traditional Ultronics Mechanical spool configurations Single spool control modes Position control Flow control Pressure control Twin spool control modes Universal flow control (UFC) High gravity assist (HGA) Non-gravity assist (NGA) Performance Tuned by Software – Many Configurable Parameters, Rapidly Adjusted
Greater System Efficiency, Reduced Parasitic Load Sense Traditional Ultronics Mechanical shuttle / check valves and orifices Electronic Load Sense Load sense pressures communicated via deterministic CAN bus Margins are software configurable Does not stroke pump if pressure is not required, unlike traditional systems Greater System Efficiency, Reduced Parasitic
Multiple Flow Share Options to Meet Your Application Needs Traditional Ultronics Mechanical compensation Pre-compensated Low load gets flow Or (not both) Post-compensated Flow reduced ratiometrically based on load Software configurable Ratio or Cascading Uniform Multiple Flow Share Options to Meet Your Application Needs
Maximum Pressure Traditional Ultronics Mechanical relief valve Software control Maximum pressure Software relief Hardware Independent – Easily Set for your Application
Bucket Shake Traditional Ultronics Based on operator input Software enabled super imposed on a square wave Set frequency Set amplitude Added Functionality to Improve Productivity – Clear Debris, Spread Aggregate, Fill Bucket, or whatever Your Application May Need
Load Weigh Traditional Ultronics External sensors, mounting and wiring Integrated Internal pressure sensors provide information to determine load weight Integrated and Robust for Added Application Value
