Description and Operation


General System Operation

To accomplish the transfer of heat, refrigerant is circulated around a sealed system, where it passes through two
pressure/temperature regimes. In each of the regimes the refrigerant changes state, during which process maximum heat
absorption or dissipation occurs.

The low pressure/temperature regime is from the thermostatic expansion valve, through the evaporator to the compressor. The
refrigerant decreases in pressure and temperature at the thermostatic expansion valve, then changes state from a liquid to a
vapor in the evaporator to absorb heat.

The high pressure/temperature regime is from the compressor, through the condenser and receiver drier assembly to the
thermostatic expansion valve. The refrigerant increases in pressure and temperature as it passes through the compressor, then
releases heat and changes state from a vapor to a liquid in the condenser.

Operation of the A/C (air conditioning) system is controlled by the ATC (automatic temperature control) module.
Refer to: Control Components (412-01 Climate Control, Description and Operation). The A/C system works in conjunction with: The air distribution and filtering system.

Climate Control - Control Components - Overview
Description and Operation

Overview Published: 11-May-2011

The climate control system is controlled by the ATC (automatic temperature control) module. It controls the heating and
ventilation system and the A/C (air conditioning) system to regulate the temperature, volume and distribution of air into the
passenger compartment. The system is a fully automatic dual zone system capable of maintaining individual temperature
levels selected for the LH (left-hand) and RH (right-hand) sides of the passenger compartment, up to a maximum differential
of approximately 3 ºC (5.4 ºF). Manual overrides for the system include inlet air source, blower speed and air distribution.
These selections can be made using either the soft switches on the home and climate control screens of the touch screen
display (TSD), or the switches on the integrated control panel.
The ATC module also controls: The rear window heater.
The windshield heater (where fitted).
The exterior mirror heaters.
The seat heaters (where fitted).
The steering wheel heater.

Air Inlet Control System Operation

The source of inlet air is automatically controlled unless overridden by pressing the air recirculation switch on the integrated
control panel. During automatic control, the ATC module determines the required position of the recirculation door from its 'comfort' algorithm and, if fitted, the pollution sensor.

The ATC module provides analogue signals to the air inlet servo motor along a hardwired connection. A potentiometer in the motor supplies the ATC module with a position feedback signal for closed loop control.
Air Temperature Control

Cooled air from the evaporator enters the heater assembly, where temperature blend doors direct a proportion of the air
through the heater core to produce the required output air temperature.

The two temperature blend doors operate independently to enable individual temperature settings for the left and right sides
of the passenger compartment. The temperature blend doors are operated by stepper motors, which are controlled by the ATC module using LIN bus messages.
The ATC module calculates the temperature blend stepper motor positions required to achieve the selected temperature and compares it against the current position. If there is any difference, the ATC module signals the stepper motors to adopt the new position.

Air temperature is controlled automatically unless maximum heating (HI) or maximum cooling (LO) is selected. When maximum
heating or cooling is selected, a 'comfort' algorithm in the ATC module adopts an appropriate strategy for air distribution, blower speed, and air source.

Temperature control in one side of the passenger compartment can be compromised by the other side of the passenger
compartment being set to a high level of heating or cooling. True maximum heating or cooling (displayed as 'HI' or 'LO' on the
TSD) can only be selected for the driver's side of the passenger compartment. If 'HI' or 'LO' is selected for the driver's side, the
temperature for the front passenger's side is automatically set to match the driver's side.

If A/C is selected off in the automatic mode, no cooling of the inlet air will take place. The minimum output air temperature from the system will be ambient air temperature plus any heat pick up in the air inlet path.

If the Temp. sync. soft button on the TSD is pressed, the ATC module synchronizes the temperature of the passenger side of the passenger compartment with the driver's side.

Blower Control

When the system is in the automatic mode, the ATC module determines the blower speed required from a comfort algorithm. When the system is in the manual mode, the ATC module operates the blower at the speed selected using either the rotary

rear window heater switch is pressed or the engine stops.

Automatic operation during a journey is initiated when low ambient air temperatures are experienced and the vehicle has been
travelling for a set period of time above a threshold speed. In this instance, no feedback is given to the driver to inform him
the rear window heater is operational (the switch LED is not illuminated). The duration of heater operation is variable depending on the ambient air temperature, vehicle speed and the amount of time the vehicle has been travelling.

Windshield Heater (Where Fitted)

Windshield heater operation is only enabled when the engine is running. The ATC module controls operation of the windshield heater using two relays in the EJB (engine junction box). When windshield heater operation is required, the ATC module broadcasts a message to the CJB on the medium speed CAN bus. On receipt of the message, the CJB energizes the relays by providing a ground path for both relay coils. This allows a battery feed to flow across the relays to power the windshield left
and right heater elements.
There are two modes of windshield heater operation; manual and automatic.

Manual operation is activated by pressing the windshield heater switch on the integrated control panel. When the switch is
pressed, the status LED in the switch illuminates and the windshield heater elements are energized. Manual operation is discontinued when the windshield heater switch is pressed a second time, 5 minutes have elapsed (the heating phase), or the
engine stops. If manual operation is discontinued by the engine stopping, the previous heating phase is resumed if the engine
is re-started within 30 seconds.

There are two variants of automatic operation; automatic operation at the start of a journey and automatic operation during a
journey.

Automatic operation at the start of a journey is initiated if the ambient air temperature is below 5 °C (41 °F). In this instance,
the switch LED is illuminated and the heater elements are energized for 6.5 minutes. Automatic operation is discontinued if the windshield heater switch is pressed or the engine stops.

Automatic operation during a journey is initiated when low ambient air temperatures are experienced and the vehicle has been
travelling for a set period of time above a threshold speed. In this instance, no feedback is given to the driver to inform him
the windshield heater is operational (the switch LED is not illuminated) and the duration of operation is variable depending upon the ambient air temperature, vehicle speed and the amount of time the vehicle has been travelling.

Exterior Mirror Heaters

Operation of the exterior mirror heaters is fully automatic and not controllable by the driver. Exterior mirror heater operation is
determined by ambient air temperature and windshield wiper status. When ambient air temperature reaches a pre-determined
level, the ATC module broadcasts an exterior mirror heating request to the door modules over the medium speed CAN bus. On receipt of this message, the door modules provide feed and ground connections to both exterior mirror heater elements.

The amount of time the exterior mirror heaters are operational increases if the windshield wipers are switched on. This ensures
the mirrors remain mist free in damp and wet conditions, where there is an increased risk of misting.

Seat Heaters (Where Fitted)

There are four seat heater settings available; off, 1, 2 and 3, which can be selected on the home and climate control screens
of the TSD. The heat setting is relayed to the vehicle occupants through a graduated display on the TSD.

Operation of the heated seats is controlled by the ATC module. When the ATC module receives a heating request from the TSD, it broadcasts a message to the CJB over the medium speed CAN bus. The CJB then provides a hardwired 12 V supply to the three heater elements in the related front seat. The heater elements, two in the seat cushion and one in the seat squab,
are wired in series. The ATC module monitors seat temperature using a temperature sensor located in each seat cushion. The CJB provides the temperature sensors with a 5 V supply. The level of the returned voltage back to the CJB is proportional to the seat temperature. The value of the return signal is broadcast to the ATC module, over the medium speed CAN bus, which allows it to control the seat temperature to the required level. The ATC module will suspend or disable operation of the seat heaters if any of the following occur:

Battery voltage exceeds 16.5 ± 0.3 V for more than 5 seconds. Seat heating is re-enabled when battery voltage
decreases to 16.2 ± 0.3 V.
If a short or open circuit is detected.
If the seat heat temperature rises significantly above the target temperature setting.

The graduated display on the TSD remains illuminated until the seat heaters are turned off or the engine stops. If the engine
is restarted within 30 seconds the seat heater resumes the previous heating level.

bus. Temperature control for the heater element is provided by the steering wheel heater control module which receives a
temperature feedback signal from a NTC (negative temperature coefficient) thermistor located within the steering wheel.



ATC Module Component Description



The ATC module is mounted on the outboard end of the air inlet duct, behind the front passenger side of the instrument panel. The ATC module processes inputs from the TSD, the switches on the integrated control panel and the system sensors. In response to these inputs, the ATC module outputs control signals to the A/C system and the heating and ventilation system.
Two electrical connectors provide the interface between the ATC module and the vehicle wiring. The ATC module uses hardwired inputs from the system sensors, the LIN bus to communicate with the stepper motors and the medium speed CAN bus to communicate with other control modules on the vehicle.

A/C Compressor Solenoid Valve

The A/C compressor solenoid valve is integral with the A/C compressor. Operation of the solenoid valve is controlled by the ATC module using a hardwired drive current of differing values. By controlling the flow of refrigerant through the compressor, the
solenoid valve can control the A/C system pressure and the evaporator operating temperature.
Refrigerant Pressure Sensor



The refrigerant pressure sensor provides the ATC module with a pressure input from the high pressure side of the refrigerant system. The refrigerant pressure sensor is located in the refrigerant line between the condenser and the thermostatic
expansion valve.

The ATC module supplies a 5 V reference voltage to the refrigerant pressure sensor and receives a return signal voltage, between 0 V and 5 V, related to system pressure.

The ATC module uses the signal from the pressure sensor to protect the refrigerant system from extremes of pressure. The ATC module transmits the A/C pressure, along with the compressor drive current value, to the instrument cluster on the medium speed CAN bus. These signals are broadcast to the ECM on the high speed CAN bus to allow it to calculate the torque being applied to the engine by the compressor. www.JagDocs.com

1 LH door mirror 2 Ambient air temperature sensor The ambient air temperature sensor is a NTC thermistor that provides the ATC module with an input of external air temperature. The sensor is hard wired to the ECM and its signal is transmitted to the instrument cluster on the high speed CAN bus. The instrument cluster acts as a gateway and transmits the ambient air temperature signal to the ATC module on the medium speed CAN bus. The sensor is installed in the LH door mirror, and is accessed by removing the mirror glass, cap and actuator.

Sunload Sensor



The sunload sensor consists of two photoelectric cells that provide the ATC module with inputs of light intensity; one as sensed coming from the left of the vehicle and one as sensed coming from the right. The inputs are a measure of the solar
heating effect on vehicle occupants, and are used by the ATC module to adjust blower speed, temperature and distribution to improve comfort.

The sensor is installed in the speaker grill on the upper surface of the instrument panel. Power for the sensor is provided by a
5 V feed from the instrument cluster.
The sensor also contains the active anti-theft alarm indicator.
