Description
1 General:
The LS system is able to regulate pressure and flow (DFR).
Now with the LS system the pump capacity can incorporate an electronic control unit
called RC2 to provide a power regulation. This provides better distribution of power
implement hydraulic and the transmission (gear box).
When the load of engine is too great, the EPDF system regulate the power taken by
hydraulic. This removes the need to have the VACR valve on earlier models.
HYDRAULIC Power
= Pressure X Flow
TRANSMISSION
Power
= Torque X Speed
Overview:
Stored Engine Speed - Characteristic
In the stored memory of the RC2 there is the unloaded engine speed
characteristic. This characteristic is represented by the engine speed in relation
to the accelerator pedal position.
Electronic Regulation
The RC2 compares the two inputs. If the difference between the load and the
characteristic is too great, the RC2 changes the electric control of the electrovalve on the pump to limit the maximum capacity pump capacity to 60 %.
NOTE: Engine engine characteristic with and without load is going to be different
due to differences in production tolerances. There are no definitive values for these
characteristics.

Blue Line (top) : represents the theoretical engine speed. (Calibrated by the
technician)
Green (lower): represents the engine speed threshold (Provided by the alternator
although has a set-up calibration for different models) where the RC2 will change
the pump output limit to 60% (can also be calibrated).
The values shown are the points that are used to develope a load factor.
At RPM of 930 if the actual engine speed drops by more than 50 RPM then the
displacement will be reduced.
At 50% of the maximum RPM if the actual engine speed is 200 RPM or more
below the theoretical speed then it will reduce the displacement.
At 100% Engine speed if the actual speed drops more than 300RPM below the
theoretical speed then the pump displacement will be reduced.
These values are for calibration of the curve only. They can be viewed via the
calibration menu. The program will calculate the infinite values in between these
benchmark values and apply them accordingly.

Maximum capacity
Shows pump in maximum capacity and normal DFR regulation acts directly onto
the control cylinder. If the solenoid fails it will operate in this position.

60% capacity
The RC2 will energise the proportional solenoid with a variable signal. This allows
the pump pressure more direct access to the control cylinder and the swash plate
angle is reduced to provide a pump output programmed into the RC2 (60%).

Regulation Problem
If there is a regulation problem and the engine is stalling then this scenario will take
place. Same as disconnecting the electro-proportional valve. DFR pressure can still
gain access to the control cylinder via the check valve because the small spring
moves the valve all the way to the right.
