Abstract
A control device for controlling a brake system of a vehicle comprises a first output for controlling a first solenoid valve; a second output for controlling a valve device; an input for receiving a requested brake pressure; and a port for receiving messages on a databus. The control device is capable of receiving an automatic brake request on the databus; determining a desired brake pressure in response to the automatic brake request; receiving a requested brake pressure in response to a driver actuating a service brake valve; comparing the desired brake pressure to the requested brake pressure; transmitting a control signal to close the first solenoid valve and transmitting a control signal to change the valve device to a first operating position in response to the requested brake pressure being less than the desired brake pressure in order to provide pressure to at least one brake actuator.
