1 INTRODUCTION
CAN bus is dominated in most modern vehicles because it provides more
flexible and robust signalling in the vehicle system. This is causing extreme
difficulty for a universal cruise control system that fits to virtually each car
model since there is a wide variety in different signal definitions. To overcome
this difficulty and provide convenient and instant service we take advantage of
cloud computing to provide the service to download vehicle specific CAN-bus
data and vehicle specific Cruise Control settings fit the AP900Ci easily and
quickly.

This document offers a guideline to program the AP900Ci module with vehicle
specific CAN-bus data and Cruise Control, Speed Limiter and RPM Limiter
settings. It requires an AP900Ci module, USB programming cable and the
capability to access the internet through Microsoft Internet Explorer running in
the Microsoft Windows environment. Further provides the programming
application an instruction for the Switched power supply and the CAN-bus
connection points.

Further does the programming application offer the possibility to adjust the
AP900Ci settings before and after the installation. Settings such as Engage
timing (INIT), Speed adjustment timing (GAIN), Command Module options and
Throttle Position Switch (TPS) settings. The Diagnostic function offers the
possibility to monitor the in- and outputs visually.

Chapter 5 gives the overview of the entire system including the hardware and
software requirements to program the Cruise Control. and guides the installer
through the programming procedure step by step. Chapter 6 gives a guideline
to fit the Cruise Control in a vehcicle and instructions to use the setup menu
to change settings without using an computer. At last chapter 12 provides the
trouble shooting

2 SAFETY DIRECTIONS
The following safety instructions apply for the AP900Ci Cruise Control &
Speed/RPM Limiter:

Only use the AP900Ci for the purpose of Cruise Control and
Speed/RPM Limiter.

The installer should have technical knowledge of modern vehicle


technology and being experienced working on them.

Incorrect and/or ignorant installation, connection, adjustments and/or


diagnostics can lead to vehicle and/or Cruise Control/Speed
Limiter/RPM malfunctions and indirectly affect road safety.

Never alter or manipulate a AP900Ci. Alterations or technical


manipulations made to the product can affect its safety adversely.

Connections made without plugs need to be soldered properly.


Insulate the connection carefully preferably with vulcanizing tape.

Always install the Electronic Module in a position where heat,


vibration and moisture are minimized, such as underneath the
dashboard.

Undo the negative battery terminal before working on the vehicle.


Los volatile data is possible (audio, board computer, clock, ect.).

Always use a digital multi-meter when measuring on the vehicle.

Cut wires without connectors to size, keep them as short as possible.

CAN-bus wires are twisted pairs to assure a reliable operation. Make


sure that the twisting remains the same when the CAN-wires are
shortened.

As the AP900Ci is programmed vehicle model specific it is not


needed to learn the speed signal.

6.2 WIRING CONNECTIONS

Once you have the location for the electronic module, it is possible to mount the
main wiring harness of the Cruise Control. Use a voltmeter to find the right
connections points in the car. See also the schematic diagram in figure 1.1, page 1.

Orange wire ( kl.15/+15)


Connect the ORANGE wire to a fused Ignition Switched +12V Feed. (kl.15/+15). It
is recommended to the connection point given in the instruction that is launched
after completing the programming.

NOTE: Make sure that the ignition key is in the off position before
making the connection of the ignition feed.

NOTE: Check with a Voltmeter that the ignition switch feed you select
supplies a full battery voltage. Other suitable locations are usually found at the fuse
box. It is not recommended to connect this orange wire to vehicle accessory (ACC)
power wire.

Blue + Blue/White (twisted pair, CAN-bus connections)


The CAN-bus connection points are vehicle specific. Connect the CAN-bus wires
in accordance with the connection points given in the instruction that is launched
after completing the programming!

OBD-II connector (On-Board Diagnostic- a.k.a. Diagnostic Link Connector). The


connection can be simply established using the specific Cruise Control OBD-plug or
Break-out Harness. See pictures below.

(LTK.1100130, LTK.1100140, LTK.1100150) (190-5004020)

Alternatively the CAN-bus connections can be made by soldering the Cruise


Control CAN-bus wires, Blue and Blue/White, to the specified locations at the

15
vehicle wiring system (contact your Cruise Control dealer for details).

Soldering: Attach the BLUE wire of the twisted pair to an existing vehicle CAN
High line. Attach the BLUE/WHITE wire of the twisted pair to an existing vehicle
CAN Low line. Often the vehicle CAN lines are present at the OBD-II connector:
pin 6 – CAN HIGH, pin 14 – CAN LOW. Soldering (recommended) or use the
enclosed two tab-connectors (chapter 3, item 3.6) for the connections to the vehicle
CAN lines.

Purple wire (Neutral Connection)

NOTE: Optional the purple wire can be connected for vehicle if the clutch
signal is not present on the CAN-bus! Only fit the purple wire when instructed by
the AP900Ci Web Programmer

The PURPLE wire can be connected at 3 different locations:


A - Original Clutch switch.
B - Neutral or Park lamp (automatic gearbox only). Locate the switch
which detects when the vehicle is in Neutral or Park.
C - Hand Brake on lamp. Locate the hand brake switch.

Connect the PURPLE wire to the wire that:


 switch to ground or
 lose ground or
 switch from ground to positive or
 switch from positive to ground
when the clutch pedal is depressed.

WARNING: CHECK THIS CONNECTION CAREFULLY AS AN


INCORRECT CONNECTION COULD RESULT IN ENGINE DAMAGE.

The cruise control will operate normal if the PURPLE wire is not
connected. If no connection is required cut and tape the PURPLE wire.

16
Command Module (Fig.6.2)

A range of command modules is available to offer the most convenient (operating)


solution for each application.

The command module must be mounted at a location, which guarantees safe


operation in all circumstances. Suitable positions are on the dashboard or central
console depending on the command module type.

For the SL900Ci the command module is required to perform the setup. Afterwards
it can be used optional. See the user guide for further details.

Fig. 6.2

NOTE: Place the 8-pole connector on the wiring harness after the command
module is placed on its location and after the wiring harness to routed to the Cruise
Control ECU.

7.2 CRUISE CONTROL SETUP PROCEDURE

The next setup (learn) procedures are to program the throttle pedal (vehicle specific),
to adjust the Cruise Control sensitivity parameter and to setup the Speed Limiter or
Speed Warning features.

SETUP Mode Entry


To enter the SETUP mode, turn the vehicle ignition switch OFF, then ON again.
Within 50 seconds, switch the cruise control ON, press and hold the BRAKE pedal
while pressing the SET key 4 times in quick succession. The Electronic module will
respond with 4 High tone beeps. See also the set-up flow chart on page 19-20
(Fig.7.1).

21
You must enter the above described SETUP mode first before selecting one of the
following adjustment modes:

Manual Pedal Learning Mode (always required!)

Step 1: Enter the manual Pedal-learning mode: Press and hold the BRAKE
pedal the press the RES key 1 time. The Electronic Module will respond with 1
Low tone beep for each press of the RES key. Release the BRAKE pedal and the
Electronic Module will respond with 1 High tone beep confirming the manual
Pedal-learning mode is entered. (If you hear the incorrect number of High tone
beeps, repeat the BRAKE pedal and RES key sequence)

Step 2: Release the throttle pedal to idle position. Press the SET key 1 time to
learn the throttle pedal idle position, the Electronic Module will respond with 1 High
tone beep.
Step 3: Press and hold the throttle pedal to full travel position. Press the RES
key 1 time to learn the throttle pedal at full travel position, the Electronics Module
will respond with 1 High tone beep. If the throttle pedal is learned correctly, the
Electronics Module will keep sounding Low tone beeps, else it will keep responding
with High-Low-High-Low- tone beeps.

Step 4: Test the throttle pedal. Press and release the throttle pedal slowly. The
Electronic Module should keep sounding Low beep tones only.

If the beep tone changes from Low to High or if it sounds continuous


High-Low-High-Low- then repeat the Pedal Learning Procedure.

Step 5: If the throttle pedal is learned successfully, press the BRAKE pedal to
save and exit the manual Pedal-learning mode. The Electronic Module will stop
beeping. See section Exit SET-UP mode.

Caution:
Some throttle pedals do not have consistent signal values near the full travel area.
(presence of full-throttle switch). Therefore the learning procedure may not succeed.
For this occasion repeat the learning procedure but press the throttle pedal not
further than 95% of its full travel at step 3.

Auto PPM Adjustment Mode (optional)


The AUTO PPM adjustment mode allows a single procedure to set the speed pulse
signal. This procedure is usually not required but may be followed by any of the
manual adjustment modes at a later date to fine-tune the parameter settings.

22
Step 1: Turn the gear in neutral or park position. Start the engine and enter
Set-up mode again within 50 seconds after turning ignition on (page 21, Setup
Mode Entry) . Enter the AUTO PPM adjustment mode: Press and hold the BRAKE
pedal and press the RES key 2 times. The Electronic Module will respond with one
Low tone beep for each press of the RES key. Release the BRAKE pedal and 2 Hi
tone beeps will confirm that the AUTO PPM set-up mode is entered. If you hear the
incorrect number of Hi tone beeps, repeat the BRAKE pedal and RES key sequence.

Step 2: Drive the car at a speed of 72 Km/hr or 45 MPH. Press the SET key.
The cruise control will give 1 beep and will engage. If the cruise control is
maintaining the speed accurate and fluently on the programmed speed then continue
with step 3.

If the cruise control is losing the set speed then adjust the INIT value with the SET
and RES keys. SET will increase and RES will decrease the initial value of the
cruise control. The INIT setting range is between level 1 and 15. Pressing the SET
key to increase the INIT will be responded by one Hi tone beep per count. Pressing
the RES key to decrease the INIT will be responded by one Low tone beep per
count.

Step 3: To save the PPM and INIT and GAIN settings, press the BRAKE
pedal. The Electronic Module will respond with 2 Hi tone beeps. Exit the SETUP
mode by pressing the BRAKE pedal while pressing the SET key 4 times. See
section Exit SET-UP mode.

If required the following setup/learn procedures can be followed to adjust the main
Cruise Control gain manually to optimize the Cruise Control performance.

Manual INIT Adjustment Mode (optional)

Low system init is distinguished by sluggish throttle response when pressing SET
key to engage in cruise control mode on a normal road. The result is excessive speed
loss from the beginning to engage. High system init is distinguished by overactive
adjustments.

Step 1: Enter the manual INIT adjustment mode. Press and hold the BRAKE
pedal while pressing the RES key 3 times in quick succession. The Electronic
Module will respond with one Low tone beep for each press of the RES key.
Release the BRAKE pedal and the Electronic Module will respond with 3 Hi tone
beeps confirming the manual INIT adjustment mode. If you hear the incorrect
number of Hi tone beeps, repeat the BRAKE pedal and RES key sequence.

23
Step 2: To set the INIT in this mode, drive the car at a convenient speed over
40Km/Hr and press the SET key to engage the cruise control.

Step 3: The INIT setting range is between 1 and 15. Pressing the SET key to
increase the INIT will be responded by one Hi tone beep per count. Pressing the
RES key to decrease the INIT will be responded by one Low tone beep per count.

Excessive throttle motion indicates the init is too high. Excessive overshoot of
the beginning set speed indicates the init is too high.
Step 4: When the Cruise Control’s response has been adjusted to a satisfactory
level, press the brake pedal to save the INIT settings. The electronic module will
respond with 3 beeps to confirm the saved settings. See section Exit SET-UP
mode.

Manual GAIN Adjustment Mode (optional)

Low system gain is distinguished by sluggish throttle response when traveling up or


down a hill. The result is excessive speed loss when climbing a hill or cresting the
top. High system gain is distinguished by overactive adjustments and continuous
surging.

Step 1: Enter the manual GAIN adjustment mode. Press and hold the BRAKE
pedal while pressing the RES key 4 times in quick succession. The Electronic
Module will respond with one Low tone beep for each press of the RES key.
Release the BRAKE pedal and the Electronic Module will respond with 4 Hi tone
beeps confirming the manual GAIN adjustment mode. If you hear the incorrect
number of Hi tone beeps, repeat the BRAKE pedal and RES key sequence.

Step 2: To set the GAIN in this mode, drive the car at a convenient speed over
40Km/Hr and press the SET key to engage the cruise control.

Step 3: The GAIN setting range is between 3 and 14. Pressing the SET key to
increase the GAIN will be responded by one Hi tone beep per count. Pressing the
RES key to decrease the GAIN will be responded by one Low tone beep per count.

Excessive throttle motion indicates the gain is too high. Excessive overshoot of the
final set speed indicates the gain is too low.

Step 4: When the Cruise Control’s response has been adjusted to a satisfactory
level, press the brake pedal to save the GAIN settings. The electronic module will
respond with 4 beeps to confirm the saved settings. See section Exit SET-UP
mode.

24
Exit SET-UP Mode

To exit the SET-UP mode, press and hold the BRAKE pedal while pressing the SET
key 4 times. The Electronic Module will respond with one long Hi tone beep to
confirm the SET-UP mode has been terminated.

7.2 SPEED-, RPM LIMITER SETUP


The fixed Speed Limiter and fixed RPM limiter can only be programmed via the
AP900Ci web programmer (PC-application).

Caution: Always limit the RPM beyond the maximum Torque level of the
engine to ensure that the maximum torque is always available to
avoid dangerous situations by taking over in traffic!

Example: 1. 2.5TDi engine max torque at 1400RPM. It is


recommend not to limit the RPM below 2500RPM.
Example: 2. 1.8 petrol engine max torque at 3500RPM. It is
strongly recommend not to limit the RPM below 4500RPM.

25
8 DIAGNOSTIC MODE:
The Cruise Control has an integrated self-diagnostic mode. The self-diagnostic
mode includes three steps test all connections and functions of the Cruise Control.
Check your installation one to verify all connections are secure. Engage the
handbrake and place the gearbox in neutral or park.

To activate the diagnostic mode press and hold the SET key while turning the
vehicle Ignition switch ON. The buzzer will beep as long as you hold the SET key
down. Release the SET key and the buzzer will stop sounding.

If the buzzer comes back ON again within one second, this indicates that one of the
other control inputs is active when it should not be. By process of elimination, you
can determine which control input is not functioning properly and repair the
connection to that input.

Diagnostic step A

The diagnostic mode is provided to test the electrical connections to the Cruise
Control module.
A bicolor diagnostic LED on the Electronic Module functions in this mode all of the
time.
Since visual access to this Module is inconvenient once the module is mounted
under the dash, a temporary diagnostic mode is provided that echoes the operation
of the LED through the audio buzzer.
The LED and buzzer will activate whenever one of the following inputs is
detected:
RED LED / LOW tone beep:
• Set Key
• Res Key
• Coast Key
• ON/OFF Key
• Memory buttons
• PCB button
ORANGE LED / LOW tone beep:
• Brake Pedal
• Neutral Safety Switch

26
GREEN LED / HIGH tone beep (see diagnostic step B):
• Speed input when in Speed sensing mode
• Tach input when in Tach sensing mode
Any switch (control) input that is active for more than 10 seconds is automatically
locked out to prevent that input from over-riding the detection of another switch
input.

Diagnostic step B

NOTE: Diagnostic step B can only be executed if installation step ‘Manual


Pedal Learning Mode’ has be completed correctly!
After the connections and functions are tested successfully in diagnostic step A, the
test of operating the throttle pedal can be continued in diagnostic step B.

To enter diagnostic step B switch the ignition off. Then press and hold the SET key
and start the engine. Release the SET key as soon as the engine runs.

Turn the cruise control ON and tap the SET key. The cruise control should now start
to operate/open the throttle valve and the engine revs should increase accordingly.
The throttle can be release instantly by pressing the bake or clutch pedal, or by
moving the automotive gearbox into neutral position or using the by operating the
COAST or ON/OFF key.

Keep the engine running and continue with Diagnostic step C or turn the ignition
key off to exit diagnostic mode.

NOTE: For safety reasons the throttle cannot be operated for more than 66%
of it full travel in diagnostic mode!

27
Diagnostic step C

This test is to check the speed signal input. When driving the car on the road, the
speed signal can be checked by the GREEN LED and sounding of the BUZZER of
the electronic module. The GREEN LED will flash and the buzzer will sound at a
rate determined by the pulse frequency of the speed. While driving around 50
Km/Hr, the GREEN LED should flash once per second. Turn the ignition key off,
after the car is stopped, to exit the diagnostic mode.

the cruise control in the following situations:

1. When pushing the brake pedal.


2. When pushing the command module COAST or CANCEL key.
3. When pushing the command module OFF key.
4. When pushing the clutch pedal.
5. When the automatic gearbox is placed in Neutral or Park.
6. When pressing any command module key over 20 seconds.
7. When turning the ignition OFF.
8. When engine revs increase over 150% of the set value.
9. When decelerating to 75% of the set speed (up-hill).
10. When accelerating to 150% of the set speed (down-hill).
11. When the brake fuse blows.
12. Minimum engage speed 33 km/hr.
13. Automatic disengages at less than 33 km/hr.
14. Maximum engage speed 240 km/hr.
15. Automatic disengages over 250 km/hr.

For a safe and economical operation, NEVER operate the Cruise Control in
congested traffic or on wet or slippery roads.

SAFETY NOTE: Should a situation ever arise where action 1 through to 4


above will not disengage the cruise you can always turn the ignition OFF (action
7).

If your vehicle has a steering lock, be sure it cannot be activated when the ignition
key is in the ignition lock or the car is in gear.

Abnormal disengagement error tone beeps:

Follows the safety feature, while the Electronic Module detects the abnormal
situation, the cruise control will disengage and sound numbers of Hi tone beeps
to identify the error one time.

Beeps Description

1 Any command module key is held over 20 seconds


2 Acceleration speed is over 9 Km/Hr per second abnormally
3 Speed drops down below 33 Km/Hr
4 Speed runs up over 250 Km/Hr
5 Speed drops down below 75% of existing setting speed
6 Speed runs up over 150% of existing setting speed
7 Pedal signals error
8 RPM increases abnormally

ROAD TEST:

Start your vehicle and turn the speed limit or cruise control on using the
command module ON/OFF button.

To switch the Cruise Control on Press the ON key on the command module for
less than 1 second. The cruise control will respond with 2 low tone beeps and
the light on the command module will illuminate green.

Then driving at around 40 Km/hr (25MPH) press and release the SET/ACC
button and you should feel the cruise control take over. The lowest speed that
your cruise control will operate is the minimum engage speed, this should be
around 40 Km/hr (25 MPH). The cruise control should now engage smoothly
and maintain a stable vehicle speed.

To switch the Speed Limiter on Press the ON key on the command module for
more than 1 second. The speed limiter will respond with 1 low and 2 high tone
beeps and the light on the command module will illuminate green.

When the ON/OFF button is pressed more than 1.2 seconds, it sounds three tone
beeps and lights up the green led, which enables the variable speed limit mode.
Then driving at around 40KM/H (25MPH) press and release the SET/ACC
button and you should feel the speed limit control take over. The lowest speed
that your speed limit control will operate is the minimum engage speed, this
should be around 40 KM/H (25 MPH). The speed limit control should now
engage smoothly and let you not over the variable limit speed.

Sensitivity adjustments:

If the cruise control does not engage smoothly or if the cruise control gains or
loses speed while cruising you can make adjustments to the sensitivity settings
of the cruise control. When the cruise control is engaged and gains speed, acts
erratically or seems too responsive, you can decrease the GAIN factor. If the
cruise control loses speed or seems to be sluggish in response you can increase
the GAIN factor.

All the sensitivity settings can be adjusted in SET UP MODE, please refer to the
flow chart (Fig.7.1)

TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE:

This section of the manual includes a list of potential problems and a list of
recommended checks to perform to solve these problems.

The LED on the electronic module does not light when


the command module buttons are pressed.
Check the 8-pin command module connector from the electronic module and
make certain that it is connected correctly to the command module.
Check the colour code on the command module connector and make certain that
you have inserted the terminals into the command module correctly. If these are
inserted correctly then check the main electronic module power supply and earth
connection. The Orange wire should have the battery voltage
(+12V) when the ignition is switched on and the Green wire should have earth at
all times.

The LED on the electronic module does not illuminate when


the brake is depressed.
Check if the LED on the electronic module illuminates when the command
module buttons are pressed. If not, check the main electronic module power
supply. The Orange wire should have the battery voltage (+12V) when the
ignition is switched on.

Use a Voltmeter to check the connections to the brake switch. One Brown wire
from the electronic module should be connected to a brake light switch wire,
which is either permanent feed, or an ignition switched feed. The other Brown
wire should be connected between the brake light bulb and the brake light switch.
You will therefore read earth through the brake light bulb when the brake pedal
is not pressed and the battery voltage (+12V) when the brake pedal is pressed.
The two Brown wires are interchangeable. Some brake light circuits will have an
ignition switched feed, so test the wires with the ignition
switch in the ON position.

For safety purposes, the Cruise Control will not work if you have a problem
with the vehicles original brake light circuit. Therefore, test the brake lights and
make certain they are operating correctly.

35
The LED does not flash with a TACH signal input
Incorrect TACH signal. Check the signal using either a voltmeter or an
oscilloscope. Make certain that the peak voltage of the signal is between the
limits of 6v to 250V and in the frequency range of 6Hz-488Hz.

Once you have checked that the TACH signal is correct, test the signal again at
the cruise control electronic module. Place the Red voltmeter lead or
oscilloscope lead on the Yellow wire of the electronic module connector and the
other lead to earth. Make certain you have the same signal at the electronic
module.

If not, check over your connections and check if the Yellow wire is damaged or
broken.

The LED does not flash with a speed signal input


Incorrect Speed signal. Check the speed signal using either a voltmeter or an
oscilloscope. Make certain that the peak voltage of the signal is between the
limits of 1.5v to 24v and is in the frequency range 6Hz to 8.5KHz.

Once you have checked that the Speed signal is correct, test the signal again at
the cruise control electronic module. Place the Red voltmeter lead or the
oscilloscope lead on the Blue wire of the electronic module connector and the
other lead to earth. Make certain you have the same signal at the electronic
module. If not, check over your connections and check if the Blue wire is
damaged or broken.

Cannot enter the Setup mode


Repeat the setup procedure and press the ON key quickly (2 Lo beeps follow) to
switch the Cruise Control ON. Pressing the ON key longer (1 Lo beep + 2 Hi
beeps follow) will activate the Speed Limiter. The setup cannot be done in speed
limiter mode

The car give error codes on the dashboard


Check the CAN-High and CAN-Low connections on
CAN settings can be faulty. Follow the WIRING CONNECTIONS in chapter
6.2.
The pedal setup can be faulty. Follow the manual pedal learning mode of setup
procedures in chapter 7.2.
