Automotive multiple memory selector apparatus with human interactive control

摘要

The ability of an automotive computer for controlling an engine is enhanced by allowing the automotive computer to be controlled by an arbitrarily selected one of a plurality of engine control programs according to arbitrary driver discretion. The bus connecting the computer and memory of a conventional automotive computer is connected to a computer controlled operator interactive control module and an expanded memory. The operator interactive control module allows a human operator to select one of a plurality of memories for coupling to the automotive computer to control engine performance. User on-site customization of the engine control program is permitted by allowing direct downloading of an engine control program into the automative computer through the oeprator interactive control.
