Patent

CA 2363210

The combine of the present invention is provided with an internal combustion engine. An electronic engine controller is used to monitor and control the operation of the engine. The electronic engine controller stores at least two power curves for controlling the engine. The first power curve has a higher horsepower output than the second power curve. A harvesting assembly detector signals the electronic engine controller with a corn head signal if a corn head is mounted to the combine, or a grain platform signal if a grain platform is mounted to the combine. If a corn head is mounted to the combine the electronic engine controller derates the engine and works on the second power curve. If the electronic engine controller receives a grain platform signal, the electronic engine controller works on the higher horsepower first power curve.
