Function requirements, general 

Energy management, general 

Energy management manages the provision (supply) and consumption (management) of electrical energy with the aim of ensuring the startability of the engine and a stable supply to all electrical consumers.

The following components are involved in energy management:

Energy management consists of the following subsystems:

On-board electrical system management 

The on-board electrical system management monitors on-board power supply utilization and actively intervenes in the energy management (e.g. consumer shutoff). The aim is to ensure the starting ability of the engine and a stable power supply to all electrical consumers.

Major assemblies coordinator 

The major assembly coordinator is integrated into the CDI control unit or the ME-SFI [ME] control unit and forms the interface between the on-board electrical system management and the alternator. The CDI control unit or the ME-SFI [ME] control unit communicates with the alternator over the drivetrain LIN. The major assembly coordinator regulates the alternator's power output to match the on-board electrical system management specifications taking engine load into consideration.

The recording and evaluation of the relevant variables for this are conducted by the following components:

Energy management is made up of the following subfunctions which are described in separate documents:

(with model 204.0/9 with code (U80) 115 V power outlet in cargo area and code (460) Canada version or code (494) USA version) 

IMPORTANT The "energy management for engine start/stop function" subfunction is viewed from an energy management point-of-view. Information on the "engine timing Start-Stop function" subfunction is documented in the "Common-Rail Diesel Injection (CDI) function" description (with diesel engine) or "gasoline injection and ignition system with direct-injection function" (with gasoline engine).
