ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INITIATING A DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER REGENERATION

摘要

An engine command override may occur when a diesel particulate filter (DPF) (206) requires regeneration. The need for regeneration may be indicated by regeneration level. The engine (204) may be operated in a normal mode when the DPF regeneration level is below a regeneration level threshold, wherein the engine command is based on the throttle input. Additionally, the engine (204) may be operated in an override mode when the DPF regeneration level is above a regeneration level threshold and the engine (204) is operating in the idle state, wherein the engine command is based on a predetermined throttle regeneration setting.
