Rosenbauer Chassis Electrical Control System

V-MUX

What is it?

• The Weldon V-MUX is a central control system utilized by the new Rosenbauer engines to manage and control the electrical system on the apparatus and provide a centralized place for the operator to activate and deactivate most of the electrical components on the apparatus.

• The screen is located adjacent to the driver’s seat and will sometimes also be referred to as the Vista Display.

• Most of the normal chassis operations can be found on one of several screens displayed on the V-MUX.

V-MUX/Vista Display Features

Physical buttons across the bottom of the display are used to navigate between

screens


Virtual switches (touch screen)

E-Master

E-Master

Activates and deactivates all warning lights on the apparatus with the touch of one button.

Once activated, warning lights can be individually deactivated and reactivated by using the buttons in the warning light menu screen.

If a light is deactivated from the warning light menu screen, it will default back on next time the E-master is cycled off and then on. This ensures that all warning lights are on each time the E-master is activated.

If the use of specific lights are required but not all lights are needed, they can be individually activated and deactivated from the warning light menu.

Warning Light Menu

Auto – Operator can select temperature (one temp for entire cab) System will select fan speed.Max Heat – Operator can select fan speeds for front and rear. System sets temp to hottest setting .Max A/C – Operator can select fan speeds for front and rear. System sets temp to coldest setting.

Defog – Operator can select temperature and fan speeds for front and rear. All front air flow is directed towards the windshield.

Defrost – System sets temp to hottest setting and directs all air flow to the windshield. No air to the crew cab. Operator can select fan speed only.

High Idle

The High idle button will activate and deactivate the chassis engine high idle which is useful to help maintain battery voltage when parked for an extended time on scene and will assist with engine cooling by raising engine fan speed.

Engine high idle status is shown in the top center of the VMUX screen under the date.

High Idle

Operational Note:• Chassis is equipped with an auto high idle feature

that will become enabled when system voltage drops below 12.5 volts. It will automatically disable when system voltage obtains 13.0 volts. Auto high idle can be manually circumvented by depressing and holding the service brake pedal or by release of the park brake.

High idle system (auto or manual) will only operate when the apparatus is in neutral and the parking

brake is set.
