figuring the cards
• Output interface to the ECU
• Digital interface for battery node control signals
• Voltage supply of the ES4455.2 or the ES4456.2
• Replacement load simulation for connecting to ECU output stages
• Interface for the battery voltage
(The simulation of the vehicle battery itself is not part of the ES5300.1-A
Housing or ES5300.1-B Housing and cannot be installed here.)
