PCT No. PCT/NZ93/00029 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 17, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 17, 1995 PCT Filed Apr. 28, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/22151 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 11, 1993To effect failure detection and communication between the modules in a modular control system for an electrically driven vehicle in which modules are interconnected by a serial data bus, one line of the serial bus may be biased high or low by modules of the system when a fault is detected. This is detected by a kill system of the modules to which disable safety related functions of each module are applicable. Modules other than the remote control module can include wake up circuitry which supplies power to the modules at start up, or deactivated modules, when the data line is biased high. The modules preferably operate as finite state machines with each module storing in its memory network variables required for the operation of that module. The network variables include the state of other modules, external demand signals, and measured variables of the system. |
