Vehicle level control system

摘要

The method of determining a trim set value of the level control system, involves receiving, from a service switch, a trim set request for signalling a trim set function, responsive to the trim set request, retrieving a sensor output detected from a vehicle body height sensor, and determining a difference value between the sensor output and a predetermined offset. The predetermined offset is indicative of an effect that an average sized operator has on a height of the vehicle body as measured by the body height sensor. The method further involves storing the difference value into a memory of the level control system, the stored value being the trim set value for the level control system. During vehicle operation, the level control system performs the steps of determining at least one control command responsive to the stored difference value and the vehicle body height sensor, and controlling the level control system responsive to the control command.
