MVP-308 OPERATING SPECIFICATIONS
ECO MODE
OFF MODE - Standard throttle control using UP and DOWN buttons (between MIN
SPEED 800 rpm and MAX SPEED 2400 rpm).
Boom-in-Rack and Leaf Detector Inputs are not monitored.
ON MODE - Standby Delay timer is activated (default = 2 minutes, configurable).
After the Standby Delay, engine speed returns to Standby Speed - 1200 RPM.
Engine RPM can be manually adjusted at any point using the UP and DOWN buttons.
A manually adjusted engine RPM above Standby Speed becomes the Work Speed
setting. The new Work Speed is flashed on the screen after a short delay (to ensure
ramping is finished).
Use of manual throttle keys will reset the Standby Delay
A manually adjusted speed below the Standby Speed allows for clutch engagement at
low speed and the Work Speed setting is set to the previous Standby Speed setting. The
Work Speed setting is not saved after a power cycle
Standby Speed and Standby Delay settings are saved after a power cycle
BOOM-IN-RACK
When Boom-in-Rack is engaged, engine RPM will move to the Standby Speed (takes
priority over Standby Delay timeout).
If Boom-in-Rack is active and Leaf Detector input becomes engaged:
1. Ignore the Leaf Detector input and do not ramp to Work Speed
2. Screen will display “Boom in Rack is Active”
LEAF DETECTOR
When Leaf Detector is engaged, engine RPM immediately increases to the Work Speed
setting.
If the Leaf Detector input becomes disengaged, a Leaf Detector Delay (10 seconds, not
configurable) is started. If the input remains disengaged until the timer expires then
engine RPM decreases to Standby Speed.

Prior to starting the engine, select the proper throttle control mode and parameters required
for application.
CAN Bus Configuration
This module communicates to the engine ECU via the J1939 CAN Bus network. This is a three wire
connection to the engine ECU. Engine information and alarm codes are broadcast over the CAN bus
from the engine ECU to the controller display. And, the controller communicates throttle
commands to the engine ECU over the CAN bus.
To assure proper communications between the engine ECU and the controller, the correct SOURCE
ADDRESS and TSC1 ADDRESS need to be selected in the controller for the particular engine make
and model. These settings are available in the CAN CONFIGURATION MENU.
Throttle Settings
The following bolded settings are required for manual (and automatic) operation in the Throttle
Configuration menu.

TSC Maximum Speed
TSC Ramp Rate
Throttle Curve Selection
Manual Throttle Options
1) Vernier Throttle
Vernier throttle is standard up and down throttle between the minimum and maximum
selections. The ramp rate is the rate of acceleration in rpm’s per second. The control panel uses
J1939 throttle, also called “torque speed control” or TSC1.
2) Multistate Throttle
Multistate throttle provides for one, two, three or four specific operating speeds. Pressing the up
and down buttons adjusts engine speed between the selected multistate speed selections.
3) High/Low
Engine accelerates to the Max speed setting with the UP button is pressed. When the UP button
is released, the engine goes back to idle speed.

ENGINE ALARMS, CODES AND MESSAGES
Engine ECU Alarm/De-Rate/Shut Downs
It is important to understand panel operation with respect to engine safety protections, alarms, and
fault codes. The panel operates with J1939 engines. These engines have an ECU (engine control
unit) which is essentially a computer that runs the engine. When engine parameters are out of
normal operating ranges, the ECU takes specific actions which can include the following:
1) Broadcast a trouble code
2) Broadcast a red or yellow lamp
3) De-rate the engine
4) Shut down the engine
5) Turn on alarm horn
It is the engine ECU that de-rates or shuts down the engine when it is not operating within normal
parameters. This includes more common shut downs like high engine temperature and low oil
pressure but can encompass a large range of parameters depending on the ECU.
Alarm Annunciation and Code Reader
This panel is configured to operate with standard J1939 engines where engine de-rate and
shutdowns are managed by the engine ECU. The panel communicates with the engine ECU and
serves as a trouble code reader. When the engine ECU broadcasts a trouble code (called an
SPN.FMI code) the panel does the following:
1) Illuminate the appropriate LED indicator lamp
a. Yellow Lamp = Alarm
b. Red Lamp = Engine Shut Down
2) Displays the trouble code (standard SPN.FMI code)
3) Displays a code description on the LCD screen
4) Displays the occurrence count of the code

Indicator Lamps
Active and Stored Engine ECU Codes
The panel also provides the ability to check the engine ECU for all ACTIVE and STORED engine ECU
codes. These codes can be viewed via the Active Codes and Stored Codes menus.

CONTROL PANEL DIGITAL INPUTS
The panel has two digital inputs available to monitor other components, senders or signals. The
analog input is preset to fuel level and cannot be configured. The digital inputs can be used for a
number of purposes including alarms and shut downs.

Digital Function
1) Pre Alarm –Warning message will be displayed along with a yellow lamp when active.
2) Throttle Up –Mimics the front panel key press for speed control.
3) Throttle Down - Mimics the front panel key press for speed control.
Digital Function Activation
1) Off / Always / Run –Describes when the parameter will be monitored for alarm conditions.
Run refers to when the engine is running. Off disables the alarm conditions. Always enables
the alarm constantly regardless of engine state.
2) Alarm Delay –The time period, after Sender Check Bypass, that the parameter must be on the
alarm condition before the alarm becomes latched.
