 Program Description: 
    Using the HCT DVC family, control steering and propulsion functions of a new skidsteer model 
    Using a J1939 equipped diesel engine. 
 Functional Description: 
The operator has control over one joystick. Critical functions are the engine rpm > 1000rpm and high 
side pressure is below 2000psi, then the system looks for input from the joystick as indicated below. 
Joystick has 5 positions 
Joystick forward – skidsteer moves forward motion 
Joystick back – skidsteer moves in reverse motion 
Joystick right – skidsteer turns right 
Joystick left – skidsteer turns left 
Joystick center – skidsteer stops in present position 
 I/O needed 
 Inputs Joystick forward  digital input 1, active high 
 Joystick back  digital input 2, active high 
 Joystick right  digital input 3, active high 
 Joystick left  digital input 4, active high 
 Joystick center  digital input 5, active high 
    Left wheels, high side press. Trans  0-3000psi transducer, 0-5v, 0-100% input 
    Right wheels, high side press. Trans  0-3000psi transducer, 0-5v, 0-100% input 
 Engine load  J1939 signal 
 Engine rpm  J1939 signal 
 Outputs 
    Left wheels pump forward control pwm  Min cur 0.2a, Max cur 0.9a 
    Left wheels pump reverse control pwm  Min cur 0.2a, Max cur 0.9a 
    Right wheels pump forward control pwm Min cur 0.2a, Max cur 0.9a 
    Right wheels pump reverse control pwm Min cur 0.2a, Max cur 0.9a 
    Turning left indicator, bang bang out  LED indicator along with standard relay 
    Turning right indicator, bang bang out  LED indicator along with standard relay 
Step #1 Assure engine rpm is above 1000rpm 
 Assure high pressure, left wheel system < 2000psi 
 Assure high pressure, right wheel system < 2000psi
