A method for monitoring pollutant emissions during the operation of a combustion engine and/or an exhaust-aftertreatment device in a motor vehicle includes determining one or more pollutant-limit values for one or more pollutant categories using an emission limit-value model and as a function of one or more operating-state variables of the motor vehicle; ascertaining a pollutant-concentration variable for each pollutant category using sensors; and detecting an error in the form of an exceeding of the one or the plurality of pollutant-limit vales as a function of the pollutant-concentration variable for each pollutant category.

Device and method for controlling an internal combustion engine

A process and a device for controlling an internal combustion engine, specifically an internal combustion engine with self-ignition. Depending on different operating parameters, a signal determining the output power can be defined. The signal determining the output power is increased by a predefined value when a start condition is present and when a further condition is met.

Process and device for controlling an internal combustion engine

A system for controlling a motor vehicle includes a first device for determining control data required for controlling the motor vehicle. A second device monitors the first device. The first device determines second data on the basis of first data, pursuant to a test function. The second device determines third data on the basis of the first data, pursuant to the same test function. The first and/or the second device recognizes an error state relevant to safety, dependent upon a comparison between the second data and the third data.

Supervisory system for a vehicle accelerator pedal travel transducer

The invention is directed to a brake light switch circuit arrangement having an additional switch S.sub.2 which opens upon actuation of the brake pedal 13 but only after a first switch S.sub.1 closes. The signals from the two switches are processed by a gating circuit (16, 17, 18) to produce brake signals (B.sub.S1 and B.sub.S2) which are to provide a standby idle-running idle-setting signal (LL*) and switch off a driving-speed controller (FGR) via the main computer (30) of the electronic diesel control. In the event that the brake switch S.sub.1 becomes defective and remains closed while overtaking another vehicle, the condition is prevented that the EDC does not reduce the injected fuel quantity to the idling quantity, even though the accelerator pedal is depressed. It is also prevented that, in the event of a fault in the brake switch (S.sub.1) while the accelerator pedal is released, constant vehicle velocity control by the EDC is not switched off.
