Abstract
A motion support device, MSD, control unit for a heavy duty vehicle, configured to control one or more MSDs associated with a wheel on the vehicle, wherein the MSD control unit is configured to be communicatively coupled to a vehicle motion management, VMM, unit for receiving control commands from the VMM unit comprising wheel speed and/or wheel slip requests to control vehicle motion by the one or more MSDs. The MSD control unit is configured to obtain a capability range indicating a range of wheel behaviors of the wheel for which the VMM unit is allowed to influence the behavior of the wheel by the control commands, monitor wheel behavior and to detect if wheel behavior is outside of the capability range, and trigger a control intervention function in case the monitored wheel behavior is outside of the capability range.
