Ducati Diavel Service Manual: Specific operating strategies
Idle speed
No electric motor is used for idle speed regulation (bypass is modulated instead with the throttle valve), as idle speed control is effected by the ride-by-wire system. Idle speed is maintained by the control unit when the speed drops below a specific threshold and when the clutch lever is operated and/or the gearbox is in neutral. The "clutch lever operated" signal is generated by a button on the lever itself, which interacts directly with the engine control unit. The "gearbox in neutral" signal is generated by the gear sensor connected to the bbs, and is transmitted to the engine control unit via the can line (target idle speed with engine stabilised at operating temperature is 1,350 rpm). The co value for each cylinder, always with engine stabilised at operating temperature, must be within 0.4 And 1.4 In volume percentage.
Throttle valve aperture regimens
The rider may select between four different riding modes (sport, touring, urban) from the tank dashboard and via the handlebar controls. Each riding mode contains three configurable throttle valve opening strategies (the engine control calibration parameters, in other terms the maps for quantity of fuel injected and ignition timing advance, are the same for all). This allows the rider to adapt power delivery and maximum power as follows to suit personal preferences:
- 162 High (torque delivery tuned to give the bike a sports character, with maximum power of 162 hp available (high for french and japanese market))
- 162 Low (torque delivery tuned to give the bike a tourist character, with maximum power of 162 hp available (middle for french and japanese market))
- 100 Hp (softened torque delivery with maximum power limited to 100 hp (low for french and japanese market))
Introduction to the engine control system
The engine control system used on the diavel consists of the following
elements:
Ride-by-wire system (motorised throttle valves with electric actuator,
throttle grip position sensor and throt ...
Inputs and outputs of engine control unit and connection to can network
The diagram illustrates the inputs and outputs for the engine control unit.
The signals from the brake buttons, the exhaust
by-pass valve command signal and the gear sensor signal are transmitt ...

Dashboard system
The vehicle is equipped with two dashboards: an lcd (1) located on the
handlebar containing the key indications (speed,
rpm, engine coolant temperature, and clock) and a tft colour display (2) located
in the tank fairing displaying trip
information (riding style set, odometer, consumption, ave ...
Removal of the engine
In order to remove engine you must first remove a series of other components
from the motorcycle.
Most of these removal procedures are described in the relative sections of this
manual.
The following flow chart illustrates the logical sequence in which the parts are
to be removed from th ...
The battery charging circuit and power distribution
On the diavel, the +15v (key on power) voltage does not come from a
conventional ignition key, but from pin 30 of the
hands free relay. This relay is switched to closed state by the hands free unit
when the latter enables power on for the
ignition and engine. The hands free relay receives +30v ...
