The internal Electronic Control Unit (ECU) connects GeoSteer Control Unit to all the sensors and actuators on the vehicle. The
ECU receives information from all the sensors such as the Angle Sensor, pressure transducer, steering encoder, etc. and sends
electrical signals to the hydraulic valve.
The ECU screen provides the following information:
• Firmware Version – The version of software that is loaded on the ECU.
• Vehicle Type – The vehicle type that the ECU is configured for. This is important to know to ensure the ECU is
configured properly to communicate to the vehicle type selected.
• Bootloader Version – This is the version of software that is loaded on the ECU to allow it to boot up.
• Serial Number – This is the Serial Number of the ECU
• Communication – If this light is green, the GeoSteer is communicating with the ECU. If this light is not green, there is a
problem with the GeoSteer Control Unit.
