[0023] Unless otherwise defined, the terms "includes", "containing", "including", "has", "having", "with" and the like are to be construed to be open-ended terms that mean "consisting of, but not limited to".

[0024] The purpose of the present application is to provide a multi-configuration metering injection pump identification method which is suitable for different models and can not only optimize manual configuration of metering injection pumps but also perform automatic identification of metering injection pumps.

[0025] Embodiment one:

[0026] The embodiment provides a multi-configuration metering injection pump identification method, which comprises the following steps:

[0027] S1: ECU initialization;

[0028] As a preferred embodiment of the embodiment, the step S1 comprises:

[0029] S11: power on T15;

[0030] S12: circuit verification;

[0031] S13: system self-check.

[0032] S2: sending a first identification signal to a metering injection pump interface for a single period;

[0033] Specifically, in order to adapt to the identification methods of metering injection pumps of different models and avoid the increase of power consumption caused by continuous identification, the embodiment determines the model of the metering injection pump by sending an identification signal to the metering injection pump, identifying the difference between the return signals of different metering injection pumps, and establishing an electrical signal connection with the metering injection pump by using a communication mode corresponding to the model; by setting a period threshold, the system retries a limited number of times within a reasonable metering injection pump response time, and stops identification when the single period is exceeded, thereby avoiding resource waste.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment of the embodiment, the step S2 comprises:

[0035] S21: the system obtains a user instruction and determines the length of the single period;

[0036] S22: the system updates a metering injection pump instruction library and establishes a calibration quantity;

[0037] S23: obtaining a user assignment of the calibration quantity, and generating a first identification signal based on the assignment of the calibration quantity;

[0038] S24: sending the first identification signal to the metering jet pump interface.

[0039] Specifically, step S2 specifies the content, duration and target of the first identification signal sending. The application adds a calibration quantity (SCR_stEnaPmpTyp_C) in the software application layer. A user can write a calibration value according to a requirement, for example, 0 / 1 / 2. The value of the calibration quantity corresponds to the serial number of the metering jet pump model in the jet pump instruction library. The system plans the way of identifying the jet pump model by inputting the initial value of the user. After determining the jet pump model, the system can modify the calibration value, and then establish a control relationship with the metering jet pump by the corresponding metering jet pump model instruction.

[0040] As a preferred embodiment of the present embodiment, step S22 further comprises:

[0041] S221: the system checks the current version state;

[0042] S222: according to the current version state, the update target is determined;

[0043] S223: a single library is updated;

[0044] S224: step S223 is repeated to traverse all libraries and perform batch updating;

[0045] S225: a variable SCR_stEnaPmpTyp_C is defined as the calibration quantity;

[0046] S226: the value range of the calibration quantity is determined.

[0047] Specifically, a user can continuously input the metering jet pump instruction content of a new model or a special model into the system by updating. The value of the calibration quantity is determined based on the number of metering jet pump models imported into the system, and can take a special value to perform a specific operation.

[0048] As a preferred embodiment of the present embodiment, step S23 further comprises:

[0049] S231: the system obtains the state instruction of the user;

[0050] S232: the system determines the attribute of the first identification signal instruction;

[0051] S233: the first identification signal corresponding to the attribute is sent;

[0052] The attribute of the first identification signal instruction includes manual identification and automatic identification.

[0053] Specifically, the specific operation includes an automatic identification mode, a manual identification mode, a requirement that a user himself determines an installation type of the metering injection pump, and a determination of a value of the calibration quantity that is entered in advance in the system. The application provides a mode of automatically identifying a type of the injection pump.

[0054] As a preferred embodiment of the present embodiment, when the attribute of the first identification signal instruction is manual identification, the step S232 further includes:

[0055] S2321': obtaining a value of the calibration quantity assigned by the user and assigning the calibration quantity as a determined value;

[0056] S2322': the system identifies the assigned calibration quantity, searches a metering injection pump instruction library, and obtains a message content corresponding to the first identification signal instruction;

[0057] S2323': according to the assigned calibration quantity, the corresponding metering injection pump interface is identified, and if the corresponding metering injection pump interface is not connected to the metering injection pump, the metering injection pump is waited to be connected;

[0058] S2324': according to the assigned calibration quantity and the message content, the corresponding message content is sent to the metering injection pump interface at the corresponding position.

[0059] Specifically, as the manual identification mode, the present embodiment designs the manual identification mode and further improves that the user can skip the automatic identification step by pre-setting the type of the metering injection pump, the system directly interacts with the metering injection pump, and the subsequent operation is saved.

[0060] The manual identification is suitable for a scenario where the pump type is used explicitly. For example, after the calibration quantity is assigned as 0, the T15 is powered on, the ECU is initialized, the pump type 1 is directly written into the SCR_stSysVrnt & SCR_stSysVrntEEPChc pump state quantity, the initialization is completed, and the pump type can be matched without installing the pump.

[0061] The manual writing of the pump type greatly accelerates the software running speed, and the communication with the pump is not needed to complete. Meanwhile, the pump type can be extended to more than two.

[0062] As a preferred embodiment of the present embodiment, when the attribute of the first identification signal instruction is automatic identification, the step S232 further includes:

[0063] S2321": obtaining a value of the calibration quantity assigned by the user and assigning the calibration quantity as 2 / N+1;

[0064] S2322": the system enters an automatic identification state;

[0065] S2323'': Set a timer, and perform electrical fault diagnosis;

[0066] S2324'': If there is an electrical fault in the system, jump to the intermediate state SCR_stSysVrnt & SCR_stSysVrntEEPChc = FF, and end the process;

[0067] S2325'': If the system meets the electrical conditions, the ECU sends a request for full identification message to the metering injection pump interface.

[0068] Specifically, in the scenario where the pump type is not clear, the user assigns the SCR_stEnaPmpTyp_C calibration quantity to (2 / N+1), the system identifies the special value, and enters the automatic identification state. The specific steps are as follows:

[0069] After T15 is powered on, the ECU is initialized, and the software enters the automatic identification state. First, the electrical fault diagnosis state is performed, and the diagnosis content includes: 1. Identifying whether there is a pump-related fault (open circuit, short circuit, etc.); 2. Whether T15 is powered on; 3. Whether the battery voltage is normal. If there are non-compliant items, a timer is set, and if the fault still exists after the timer is cleared, jump to the intermediate state (SCR_stSysVrnt & SCR_stSysVrntEEPChc = FF), the system will not identify, and will identify again after the next power-on initialization, avoiding resource waste caused by continuous identification.

[0070] If there is no above fault, enter the system identification judgment module. The ECU sends a request message to the pump, and the pump motor feeds back the pump type information to the ECU, and the ECU identifies the information fed back by the pump, and writes the pump type into SCR_stSysVrnt & SCR_stSysVrntEEPChc. At the same time, a timer is set, if the pump does not feed back the pump information to the ECU within the timeout, stop sending the request, report the fault, and jump to the intermediate state (SCR_stSysVrnt & SCR_stSysVrntEEPChc = FF) The system will not identify, and will identify again after the next power-on initialization, avoiding resource waste caused by continuous identification. At the same time, the request message is unified, and the ECU only needs to send one message to make different types of pumps respond. In this embodiment, the automatic identification of the metering injection pump does not need to send multiple messages, and only needs one communication, that is, the pump type can be obtained according to the return signal of different pumps, and written into the calibration quantity, reducing the identification time.

[0071] S3: Obtain a first return signal;

[0072] S4: Analyze the first return signal; if the injection pump can be identified, proceed to the subsequent steps; if the injection pump cannot be identified, return to step S2;

[0073] As a preferred embodiment of the present embodiment, the step S4 further comprises:

[0074] S41: receiving the first feedback signal, identifying the information carrying the pump type;

[0075] S42: reading the information carrying the pump type, writing the pump type into the calibration quantity

[0076] S5: sending the second pairing signal to the metering injection pump interface;

[0077] As a preferred embodiment of the present embodiment, the step S5 further comprises:

[0078] S51: the ECU looks up the injection pump instruction library according to the pump type, and generates the control instruction;

[0079] S52: sending the control instruction as the second pairing signal.

[0080] S6: obtaining the second feedback signal;

[0081] S7: executing the control strategy, and running the start of the injection pump.

It is not intended to be a limitation on the present application, as described in the specification. It will be apparent to one skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made to the specific embodiments described above without departing from the spirit and scope of the application.
