Configuration File
The Hydrospace S4 PWC Plug-in ECU is compatible with all known versions
of the S4 model. The stock S4 model can be operated with numerous boost
levels. A number of configuration files are available with different ECU boost
control strategies, See Base Maps
PWC Operational Differences
The M400 Marine ECU engine control functionality is the same as the
standard factory ECU; all normal operations of the PWC are possible.
MoTeC has added a launch control function using the blue button on the left
side handlebar (see Launch Mode Button). Once optimised by the tuner this
allows for precise and powerful launch performance.
Instrument Cluster Operation
The standard Hydrospace does not include an instrument cluster, MoTeC has
added provision in the Adaptor Loom for an SLM (Shift Light Module). This
can be controlled from the M400 and offers many advantages. It includes
LMA - Launch Mode Assist –, a visual alert system to optimise launch
performance in a racing environment. The supplied Configuration files have
this feature already included.
Power Control Strategy
The Hydrospace S4 uses an ignition lanyard which powers up the craft. With
the lanyard inserted, pressing the start button on the left side handlebar will
start the engine, and either pressing the red button or removing the lanyard
will stop the engine.
Note: the lanyard should always be removed when the engine is stopped to
avoid flattening the battery.
