Introduction

VEMS gives you the full engine control that you need to bring out the best performance from your turbo/supercharged or normally aspirated engine. It has been developed by Motorsports enthusiasts to provide other enthusiasts the sorts of features found in the more expensive management systems.

Key Features

Sensors

VEMS can be configured to use almost any standard OEM sensor for

Throttle position.

Coolant temperature.

Air temperature.

Crank and Cam sensors - configurable for the standard OEM configurations such as Ford 36-1, GM/Bosch 60-2, Audi 5 cylinder 135 tooth as well as being customizable for many different timing strategies.

A choice of either 250kpa or 400kpa built-in pressure sensor, or an external OEM type.

External fuel and exhaust pressures.

Additionally VEMS also has the built in ability to control:

Up to 2 Wideband O2 (Low cost Bosch LSU4).

Up to 2 Knock sensors.

Up to 2 Exhaust Gas Temperature sensors.

Drivers/Outputs

Throughout the development of VEMS, Customization has been by-word, the number of driver chanels are as plentiful as the ways of configuring their operation. Outputs can be triggered by temperature, rpm, throttle position, air pressure.

6 Low current drivers providing control for relays (fuel pump, fan, water pump) or lights (shift light, activation light).

8 High Current solanoid drivers that can be configured to control:

High or low impedence Fuel Injectors.

Variable cam timing solanoids (VTEC, VVT etc).

Idle air controllers.

Nitrous solanoids.

Boost controllers.

1 High current driver which can be configured to control a second wideband sensor

Coil drivers are built in and can be specified when purchasing a unit, up to 8 ignition coil drivers can be fitted, which can be configured to run single coils, wasted spark coil packs or Coil On Plugs. Because the coil control is built in VEMS has full control with coil charge/dwell times.

Misc

LCD display

Throughout the development of VEMS, Customization has been by-word, we have provided miscellaneous control outputs for anything from Boost controllers, Nitrous solenoids, to Water Injection. As well as the capacity to measure two additional resistive values such as pressure or position.

Datalogging capability is provided either direct to Laptop, or using an addtion Multimedia card interface.

Rob, thanx, these are great. I guess we must split GenBoard/Marketing to GenBoard/Marketing/Logos and GenBoard/Marketing/Generic or GenBoard/Marketing/Features and move there.
