MoTeC’s ‘M1’ Magnesium Series ECUs are encased inmagnesium alloy, a robust, lightweight material ideal forthe extremes of motorsport. The rugged black finishprovides a protective layer and ensures maximum heatdissipation, while the compact size offers numerousadvantages for a variety of applications.

The technology behind the M1 Series is unique. Itprovides unparalleled flexibility for customised control,along with comprehensive security strategies that makethese innovative ECUs equally well suited to unrestrictedand fully regulated categories.

Numerous models will be phased into the M1 familyover time, including direct injection (diesel andpetrol/gasoline), Plug-In and specially sealed units formarine installations.

With clever engineering that looks to the future,MoTeC’s M1 Series ECUs have been designed to adaptto tomorrow’s challenges.

Endless possibilities, total control.

THEFUTUREof engine CONTROL>>>

For more than twenty years adistinctive gold box hasembodied the MoTeC brand ofECU. Instantly recognised,internationally respected.

The M800 - MoTeC’s benchmark model that raised the barin aftermarket engine management worldwide as one ofthe first systems to offer Drive by Wire throttle controland continuously variable cam control.

Now MoTeC takes engine control into a new era with thelaunch of theM1MAGNESIUM SERIES.A new look, and a completely new approach.

There comes a time to make a change...

• Built-in 3 axis accelerometer*Some features are planned for future releases. Not all features will beavailable on all models.

DATA LOGGING

All M1 series ECUs feature a large logging memory andoptions for advanced features such as high speed logging(up to 1 kHz), multiple logs with separate access logins andinput expansion using VIMs (Versatile Input Modules).

In many applications the ECU can control both engine andchassis, as well as being a fully featured data logger.

The M1 series uses the acclaimed i2 Standard ori2 Pro analysis software, providing extensive dataanalysis features. (See separate brochure)

SECURITY

The M1 ECU series allows different levels of access fordifferent users, e.g. engine tuner, drive train tuner, dataengineers. Each can have separate logins to restrictaccess to particular areas of the tuning and data logging.

Smart security strategies make the M1 ideal for Control ECUapplications, providing scrutineering personnel with accessto specific information. Selected parts of the ECU can belocked down while still allowing teams to access necessarytuning parameters.

Security is implemented with robust techniques making itvirtually impossible to change the ECU function withoutauthored permission.

STANDARD CONFIGURATIONS

MoTeC will provide standard configurations that will betargeted at specific engines and applications, rather thanthe one-size-fits-all approach on current generation ECUs.This tailored configuration method will result in fewerparameters and menu items, simplifying the setup andtuning experience.

The user will still have access to the usual tuning tablesand necessary setup parameters.

CUSTOM CONFIGURATIONS

Many users will have specific requirements that call for anon-standard configuration. The operation of the M1 ECUcan be customised to meet these different needs in one ofthe following ways:

MoTeC ConfigurationMoTeC will provide a service to customise the functionalityof the ECU for individual needs. For example, the operationcan be modified to include different traction controlstrategies or additional compensation tables.

User ConfigurationUsers will also be able to completely customise the ECUfunctionality if desired, enabling them to create their owncontrol strategies. (Requires MoTeC training)

Third Party ConfigurationA limited number of third party developers that have beenfully trained by MoTeC will be able to provide customisationservices to end users.

SETUP SOFTWARE

Setup is used to customise the functionality of the ECU,providing an unprecedented level of control. It allows theuser to add Tables, Parameters and Channels and to enter‘Script’ that defines how the ECU operates. The Script is a‘C’ like programming language that allows entry of logic,calculations and algorithms.

For most customers it is not necessary to use the Setupsoftware because MoTeC will provide flexible configurationsfor many applications, and will also offer a service tocustomise the operation of an ECU for the user.

If the user would prefer to perform their own ECUcustomisation, they can be trained in the use of Setup.MoTeC will also support third party developers that canprovide customisation services to end users.

TUNE SOFTWARE

Tune provides access to the tuning features of the M1 ECU.It is highly flexible allowing multiple, customised screenlayouts similar to the i2 Data Analysis software.

The Tune program is unique in that it adapts to anycustomisations that have been made to the ECU via theSetup software. As Tables, Parameters or Channels areadded, Tune automatically conforms to provide access tothese items.

It also features on screen logging whereby data from theECU is automatically recorded for quick and easy analysisdirectly on the tuning screens.
