engines electronically, thus ensuring optimum operating
efficiency.
DEFITA200 is an abbreviation for Dupec Electronic Fuel
Injection and Timing Advance.

Spark timing and fuel injection for DEFITA200 ECU's is
calculated by a central processing unit and are based on:
I - MAP
II - EWT
III - Battery voltage
IV - Crankshaft position
V - Engine speed
VI - Throttle position
The optimum timing advance curves for a given engine are
determined by running the engine on an engine dynamometer
under any combination of the above-mentioned conditions.
This process is known as mapping the engine. The mapping is
further refined by extensive driving tests.
The mapped data regarding the engine is stored in a ROM
(Read Only Memory) within the ECU.
The following processes take place when calculating the
advance angle:
I - engine speed and crankshaft position measurement
II - engine load measurement
III - advance angle look-up
IV - ignition firing delay calculation

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 6.3 Engine load measurement
Engine load is measured by an external MAP ( Manifold Abso-
lute Pressure) sensor. Absolute pressure measurement auto-
matically adjust spark timing for altitude changes. It is also
required to determine the air mass for fuel injection
applications.
6.4 Advance angle look-up
The optimum advance angle obtained by mapping the engine
is stored in a matrix (table) having 10 load and 62 r.p.m.
sites. There are thus 620 possible advance angles stored in
ROM for every RON number used. The CPU (Central
Processing Unit) compares the calculated engine speed and
measured load with the site indexes stored in ROM. If an exact
correspond-ing speed and load site are found it uses the
corresponding advance angle in the matrix. In cases where
exact corre- sponding load and r.p.m. sites are not found the
CPU uses linear interpolation to calculate the corresponding
advance angle to be used.
