Estimating the term…
A wheel end computer, WEC, (220) for hosting and executing one or more motion support device abstraction modules (MSDA, 221) configured to monitor and/or to control operations of one or more respective motion support devices, MSDs, (240, 250, 260, 270) on a heavy duty vehicle, where an MSDA provides a control and/or a monitoring interface between an external vehicle unit computer (VUC, 210), and a respective MSDs operational functionality, wherein the WEC (220) is arranged to identify a matching MSDA for each MSD in a set of MSDs, such that each MSD connected to the WEC is matched to a respective MSDA, and wherein the WEC (220) is arranged to receive a monitor and/or a control command from the VUC (210) for monitoring and/or controlling an MSD connected to the WEC, and to control the MSD via the respective matching MSDA.
A wheel end computer, WEC, configured to host and to execute one or more motion support device abstractions, MSDAs, for monitoring and/or controlling operations of one or more respective motion support devices, MSDs, on a heavy duty vehicle,
A method for controlling one or more motion support devices, MSDs, by a wheel end computer, WEC, the method comprising obtaining and storing a plurality of replaceable motion support device abstractions, MSDAs, where an MSDA provides an interface to control and/or to monitor one or more functions of an MSD connected to the WEC from an external vehicle unit computer, VUC,
