DenEdit Settings

You can configure the DetCon detonation control system and display the current knocking values of the engine using the DenEdit software application. The device can be operated via the software in three different basic modes:

Measurement Mode

The measurement mode is used for engine calibration. Calibration is only required for engine types for which a parameter file has not yet been created and is executed by MOTORTECH service personnel.

Interface Diagnostics Mode

The interface diagnostics mode can be used to test the output signals at the binary and analog inputs. The values set in the area Diagnose in the tab Mode are transmitted to the outputs of the device. Knocking analysis is not carried out.

Knock Detection Mode

Knock detection mode is the operation mode of the detonation control system. After synchronization, the signals of the knocking sensors are analyzed and output signals are generated accordingly for the binary and analog outputs. The condition of the outputs are indicated via LEDs and the signals of the knocking sensors are displayed in the tabs for process monitoring. Error monitoring is also performed, for example, for registering faulty knocking sensor signals.
