Description:
Engine Retarder Minimum Vehicle Speed Limit Type defines how the Engine Retarder Minimum Vehicle Speed parameter will be used.
If the Engine Retarder Minimum Vehicle Speed Limit Type is programmed to the “soft” setting, the engine retarder will remain ON below the value programmed in the Engine Retarder Minimum Vehicle Speed until the normal engine retarder turn-off parameters are met.
If the Engine Retarder Minimum Vehicle Speed Limit Type is programmed to the “hard” setting, the engine retarder will turn off when the value programmed in the Engine Retarder Minimum Vehicle Speed is reached.
In both cases the engine retarder will remain off until vehicle speed is higher than the programmed value of the Engine Retarder Minimum Vehicle Speed and the retarder has been re-engaged.
