Modes of Operation: Notes

The transmission control is incorporated into the EMS 2000. The EMS 2000 does not control the transmission ratio directly but does provide all of the intelligence relating to the required position of the ratio control motor. It also provides the intelligence for how fast it should be operated.

The EMS 2000 controls the transmission in one of four modes:

  • Drive mode (normal ECVT driving).
  • Sport ECVT mode.
  • Manual mode.
  • Fault mode.
