AWC-ECU performs a calculation based on the information from ECU, sensors, and switches. Then, based on the calculation value, it appropriately operates the hydraulic unit (for ACD) to control in response to the driver's operations and vehicle behaviors.

DIFFERENTIAL OPERATION

ACD transfer	Adjusts the center differential operation by controlling the multiplate clutch transfer torque inside the ACD transfer based on the hydraulic pressure from the hydraulic unit.
Hydraulic unit (For ACD)	Controls the hydraulic pressure supplied to the multiplate clutch in the ACD transfer according to the signal from the AWC-ECU.
AWC-ECU	Based on the information obtained via CAN communication and others, it appropriately controls ACD.
Sensors	Information of sensors (throttle position sensor, G sensor, steering sensor, wheel speed sensor, yaw rate sensor), engine torque, and engine speed are sent to the AWC-ECU.
