INTRODUCTION
Overview
The ThrottleXcel is an all-in-one instrument panel that integrates a traditional
style remote hand throttle with engine monitoring and display. It offers complete
remote display and engine control (as a remote throttle, the ThrottleXcel is not an
engine governor) in a single compact unit.
The panel has a 4-digit LED display for engine RPM, three LED bar graphs that
provide a constant display of the engine oil pressure, engine coolant temperature, and
battery voltage. It has a message display that shows the time and date during normal
operations and fault warning alarms as they occur. When selected by the operator it
will show monitored information, stored data, and program options.
The ThrottleXcel panel has a built-in FRC infinityPRO remote engine throttle.
This hand throttle uses optical technology with an Infrared Encoder (IRE) to detect
the direction and speed of the control knob as it is rotated. There is no potentiometer,
electromechanical switch, or mechanical stop. The electrical signal from the encoder
is interpreted by a microprocessor and the engine RPM control signal is adjusted.
This will cause the engine RPM to increase or decrease proportionally to how fast the
control knob is rotated. The engine RPM control signal will be set at idle when power
is applied to the ThrottleXcel regardless of the control knob position.
Engine information is input via the J1939 databus and/or installed sensors.
