Introduction

The Orion2 can be used as throttle by wire controller. It can be used for single acting throttles or dual acting throttles. Double acting throttles require positive and negative drivers to form an H-bridge. This will allow current to change direction to open or close the butterfly. Dual throttles have a rest position that is partially open to act as limp mode power during electronic failure. This product is in prototype status and use the ECU software for now. Dedicated TxW software will follow soon.

These units are standalone units and can operate without the engine running. It may also be used with other management systems. There are protection diodes and resistors wired into the harness. It also has its own relay to power the throttle. These modifications is to ensure lockout of the power to the throttle during malfunction of the sensors, harness or electronics. Do not power the unit via another source by bypassing the relay etc.
