Important instructions and safety instructions
This publication is meant for commercial vehicle workshop personnel with knowl-
edge of automotive electronics.
The document provides all the information required to install and set-up the Smart-
Board.
Carefully read all safety instructions in this document before you start performing
diagnostics or you replace and set-up a device or other similar activities.
These safety instructions must be observed to avoid personal injury or material
loss.
WABCO only guarantees the safety, reliability and performance of its products and
systems if all instructions, notes and safety instructions in this document are ob-
served.
Before you perform any work on the vehicle (repair, replacing parts, diagnos-
tics etc.), you must ensure the following:
Only trained and qualified technicians are to perform any work on the vehicle.
Make sure to follow the specifications and instructions of the vehicle manufacturer.
Always comply with the company and national accident prevention guidelines and
Health and Safety regulations.
Wear suitable protective clothing when necessary.
The workplace has to be dry, as well as sufficiently lit and ventilated.
CAUTION
Danger of injury due to vehicle rolling!
Danger of injury by actuating the brake while work is being performed on the vehi-
cle.
– Make sure that the transmission is in neutral and the hand brake has been
pulled.
– Secure the vehicle against rolling with chocks.
– Attach a clearly marked note on the steering wheel saying that work is being
performed on the vehicle and that the brake must not be touched.
A short introduction to operating the SmartBoard is called "SmartBoard Operating
Instructions" and is available under WABCO number 815 xx0 138 3.

1.1
Measures for avoiding electro-static charge and uncontrolled discharging (ESD)
Note during construction and building the vehicle:
– Prevent potential differences between components (e. g. axles) and the vehicle
frame (Chassis).
Make sure that the resistance between metallic parts of the components to the
vehicle frame is lower than 10 Ohm (< 10 Ohm). Connect moving or insulated
vehicle parts such as axles electrically conductive with the frame.
– Prevent potential differences between the towing vehicle and the trailer.
Make sure that an electrically conductive connection is made via the coupling
(king pin, fifth wheel, claws with pins), even with no cable connection.
– Use electrically conductive bolted connections when fastening the ECUs to the
vehicle frame.
– Use only cable conforming to WABCO specifications or WABCO original cable.
– Run the cable in metallic casing if at all possible (e. g. inside the U-beam) or
behind metallic and grounded protective plating, to minimize the influence of
electro-magnetic fields.
– Avoid the use of plastic materials if they can cause electrostatic charging.
Note during repair and welding work on the vehicle:
– Disconnect the battery - if installed in the vehicle.
– Disconnect cable connections to devices and components and protect the plug-
ins and connections from contamination and humidity.
– Always connect the grounding electrode directly with the metal next to the weld-
ing position when welding, to prevent magnetic fields and current flow via the
cable or components.
Make sure that current is well conducted by removing paint or rust.
– Prevent heat influences on devices and cabling when welding.
Monitoring a wide range of trailer functions is important when trying to improve the
performance of haulage companies operations and reducing the costs of the vehi-
cle fleet.
By integrating a number of control and indicator devices in a single, easy-to-handle
multifunctional system, the SmartBoard helps to make trailer vehicles safer and
more effective.
fig. 2-1:
SmartBoard
The SmartBoard combines the following functions:
• Display of distance driven (operates without power supply from the towing vehi-
cle)
• Immobilizer operation
• Brake lining wear indicator (in connection with WABCO BVA)
• Current axle load indicator
• Tyre pressure indicator (in connection with WABCO IVTM)
• Display of diagnostics and system messages
• Information on the operation of the electronic air suspension (in connection with
Trailer EBS E)
• Information on the operation of the lifting axle(s)
• Operating the relaxation function
• Operating the brake release function
• Operating the road finisher brake
• Indication of the vehicle inclination
• Operation of the freely configurable GIO functions
• Display of selected operating data (ODR) and the measured values of the brak-
ing system
It therefore serves as a universal information and control system for implementing
efficient trailer vehicle operation.
A SmartBoard can be used to replace the following separate display and control
units:
• Odometer Status
• Brake lining indicator
• Lifting axle and traction help switch
• Axle load indication
• ECAS control box and/or unit
• Relaxation function
• Brake release function
• Road Finisher Brake
The SmartBoard is designed to be mounted on the outside of the vehicle frame
with a connection to Trailer EBS D or E.
2.1
SmartBoard for ADR (GGVS) vehicles
WABCO have developed a new SmartBoard version that allows trailers that carry
dangerous goods to take advantage of SmartBoard functions. A SmartBoard suit-
able for GGVS vehicles is available under the product number 446 192 111 0.
Operation of the SmartBoard is identical to the standard version. Some functions
are restricted, however, due to the operation without a battery:
• No date and time function is available. For this reason it is not possible to store
messages.
• The odometer reading of the Trailer EBS is displayed. The internal odometer is
without function.
• Information is displayed when the trailer is supplied with power.

Table: 2-1: SmartBoard versions
The fitting dimensions and cable connections are unchanged. The SmartBoard is
installed in compliance with the approval certificate TUEH - TB 2007 - 132.00. The
certificate can be obtained from the product catalogue INFORM on the Internet at
www.wabco-auto.com by entering the product number or the index words “Smart-
Board“ or “certificate“.
As standard, the SmartBoard is operated in combination with Trailer EBS and dis-
plays the data transmitted by Trailer EBS.
The SmartBoard is connected to Trailer EBS. The tyre pressure monitoring system
IVTM and the BVA (brake lining wear indicator) are connected to Trailer EBS and
so transmit their data to the SmartBoard via the Trailer EBS.
The odometer obtains information from the Trailer EBS. In order to operate the
SmartBoard's internal odometer independently of the Trailer EBS D function (and
also without an ABS plug connection to the towing vehicle), the SmartBoard must
be connected directly to the wheel sensor via the Y-cable. This is not required if
there is a connection to Trailer EBS E: the wheel sensor signal is transmitted to the
SmartBoard even when not supplied with power from the towing vehicle.
Control of the air suspension functions (e. g. lifting and lowering the lifting axle or
the chassis/vehicle body) requires the Trailer EBS E to be configured accordingly.

System prerequisites
The SmartBoard is a device used for operating the Trailer EBS. The range of
SmartBoard functions therefore depends on the Trailer EBS version and on the in-
stalled components. The WABCO System BVA is required, i. e. for indicating the
brake pad wear. The SmartBoard detects the installed components automatically
and shows the available functions as menu symbols.
If the system or component from which information is to be retrieved or that is to be
controlled by the SmartBoard is not available, the corresponding menu item or
symbol is not displayed.
The SmartBoard is used in combination with the Trailer EBS D or E as of genera-
tion D Premium (480 102 014 0).
The software version of the SmartBoard is shown in the menu (see page 32). A number of functions are not available in the
ADR version of the SmartBoard (see chapter 2.1 "SmartBoard for ADR (GGVS)
vehicles", page 9).

Immobilizer
The immobilizer is for reducing the risk of theft. The function can be activated or
deactivated by entering a self-defined PIN key via the SmartBoard.
Enabling
A PUK is necessary for each vehicle for enabling the first time. This requires the
document "PUK Access Code 813 000 049 3" with an individual voucher code.
With this voucher code, you can apply for the PUK on the internet under
www.wabco-auto.com/immobilizer.
The job of the PUK is:
• Releasing the immobilizer function in the TEBS E modulator
• Defining / changing the user PIN
• Master key, to also release the vehicle without a PIN
The PUK is reserved only for the end user. Handle the PUK with care and protect it
from access to third-parties and unauthorized persons. Store the PUK in a safe
location. WABCO will not be held responsible for the loss or misuse of the PUK.
– Select the menu ..
– Please enter the PUK.
– Define a PIN and enter it.
– Re-enter PIN to confirm.
� Upon successful release, a confirmation appears on the display.
Operation
Before deactivating the immobilizer, the park brake (red button of PREV) of the
trailer must be activated.
With Trailer EBS as of generation E2, the park brake of the tow vehicle must be
activated when deactivating the immobilizer and brake pressure must be applied on
the yellow hose coupling.
If the PIN is entered incorrectly 5 times, the PIN entry can only be made again after
a 10 second delay. Another incorrect entry will double the duration of the delay. Af-
ter 20 incorrect entries, the function is locked and must be enabled again using the
PUK.
– Select menu .
– Enter the self-defined PIN.

cation in the brake lining is
worn through).
Check the brake linings as
soon as possible and replace
worn brake linings.
4.4.4
Axle load indication
Information on the axle loads is indicated in this functional group.
For example: Semitrailer
In addition, a message can also be shown in the display. The warning thresholds
can be set in the SmartBoard.
WABCO suggestion for a 3-axle semitrailer with 9 t axle load on each axle.
• The initial warning threshold is to be set to a 8 t axle load: When there is an
axle load of 8 t, the menu item "axle load" flashes in the display. The driver is
informed that further loading is not advised.
• The secondary warning threshold is set to 9 t axle load: When an axle load of
9 t is exceeded, the red warning LED flashes and the menu item "axle load"
flashes in the display. The driver is informed of overloading (see chapter 4.5
"Output of messages", page 37).
The SmartBoard is supplied with the initial and the secondary warning threshold
both set to 15 t. The warning thresholds are therefore not activated.

4.4.7.1 Manoeuvring aid, drawbar load reduction
Manoeuvring aid OptiTurn™
The OptiTurn™ manoeuvring aid improves the capability of the truck-semi-trailer
combination to travel around curves and traffic circles and to manoeuvre around
loading ramps.
Travelling on narrow streets, curves and traffic circles causes excessive tyre wear
and damage to tyre edges on curbstones. The limited area around loading ramps
also hinders the manoeuvrability of the tractor-trailer combination.
Operation and Functions
24
OptiTurn™ automatically detects tight curves and traffic circles and relieves or
raises the third axle of the semitrailer. This decreases the turning radius of the trac-
tor-trailer combination and improves manoeuvrability. The tyres also have less fric-
tion on the street and damages to the tyre edges on curbstones are prevented. Af-
ter travelling through the curve, the relieved or raised axle is put back down into its
initial position again.
OptiTurn™ can be an inexpensive alternative to steering axles.
Using OptiTurn™:
• Reduction of tyre wear and tyre edge damage
• Improvement in manoeuvrability of the tractor-trailer combination
• Easier travel around curves and traffic circles
• Reduction in axle tension
• In many cases is an alternative to steering axles
Drawbar load reduction OptiLoad™
The OptiLoad™ drawbar load reduction automatically distributes the weight of the
load on the supporting axles of the tractor-semitrailer combination without having to
actually shift the load in the trailer.
If a trailer load is to be distributed to multiple delivery addresses, the remaining
load can become unevenly distributed on the semitrailer. This can exceed the per-
mitted axle load of the tractor drive axle.
OptiLoad™ redistributes the load with targeted changed air-pressures in the air
bellows of the semitrailer to the tractor- and semitrailer axles without having to
change the position of the load on the semitrailer. OptiLoad™ supports the driver in
preventing an overload on the tractor drive axle this way.
OptiLoad™ is designed for loads up to 24 tonnes and works independent of the
speed.
Preventing overloading the tractor drive axle helps with:
• Preventing damage to the tractor drive axle
• Decreasing of tyre wear
• Avoiding overload fines

Relaxation function
WARNING
Risk of injury due to moving vehicle.
– Make sure that no persons are in the trailer danger zone when actuating the
relaxation function!
– Attach a clearly marked note on the steering wheel that work is being per-
formed on vehicle!
During loading and unloading procedures of semitrailers, the axle assembly is
stressed if the brakes are applied on the entire unit. If the handbrake is released af-
ter the unloading process for example, the chassis can spring up suddenly be-
cause the air suspension lifts immediately with the still full air suspension bellows
and the lack of a load on the vehicle. The new relaxation function prevents the
chassis from suddenly springing up.
Operation and Functions
26
The relaxation function is activated by switching on the function in the TEBS E1
modulator. The tension on the applied brakes is released with the respective actua-
tion of the brake cylinder from the modulator. The brakes are released by side
(semitrailer/central axle trailer) or by axle (drawbar trailer) for this purpose. Braking
the vehicle is always performed at over 18 %, because the brake cylinder is used
for releasing the vehicle.
4.4.9
Brake release function
The service brake in the trailer can be released by actuating the functions and with
the vehicle at a standstill. A typical application for this function is for vehicle trans-
porters. In this case the length of the trailer is changed via a hydraulic tension strut
for simple loading of the entire vehicle. When releasing the button switch, the brake
is immediately ventilated again causing the brake to be applied.
Requirements for the brake release functions
• The parking brake in the towing vehicle is actuated.
• The pressure on the coupling head "yellow" must be greater than 6.5 bar. The
brake release function will be aborted when the pressure on the coupling head
"yellow" drops.
• The vehicle must not roll. The brake release function will be aborted at a speed
V > 1.8 km/h.
A TÜV certificate for the brake release function can be obtained from the product
catalogue INFORM on the Internet at www.wabco-auto.com by entering the prod-
uct number or the index words “SmartBoard“ or “certificate“.
4.4.10 Road Finisher Brake
The road finisher brake serves to brake tipper body vehicles when operating be-
hind road finishers. The tipper body vehicle with the asphalt is pushed forward by
the road finisher. To prevent the vehicle from rolling away it is braked slightly (e. g.
with 0.7 … 1.5 bar).

This function is activated via the Smartboard (finisher operation ON/OFF). The
speed must be below 10 km/h, and the tipping body must be raised (limit switch or
roller sensor on the tipping body).
The function is deactivated again via the Smartboard (road finisher brake ON/OFF)
or at a speed exceeding 10 km/h. A further setting in the Finisher brake menu per-
mits setting the nominal braking pressure for the finisher brake by means of the +/-
buttons.
4.4.11 Vehicle inclination
This function is used to indicate the inclination/tilt of the trailer.
In every Trailer TEBS E1 modulator a lateral acceleration sensor is integrated for
the RSS function. This sensor simultaneously provides information on the inclina-
tion of the vehicle to the body reference plane. The inclination of the vehicle can be
monitored in the Trailer EBS E1 Modulator.
If an inclination of the chassis frame defined in the diagnostics is exceeded, a
warning can be output to the driver by the Trailer EBS E1. An electrical output of
the Trailer EBS E1 is connected to a horn or a rotary beacon for this purpose. This
warning is also shown on the SmartBoard (E1).
This function is meant for tipper vehicles.
4.4.12 GIO function

Pressure sensor calibration
DANGER
Rolling vehicle
– Position the vehicle on an even surface and secure it against rolling away with
brake wedges.
– Only use approved devices to jack up and secure the vehicle.
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to brake actuation while working on the vehicle
– Attach a clearly marked note on the steering wheel saying that work is being
performed on the vehicle and that the brake must not be touched.
The SmartBoard makes it possible to calibrate the pressure sensors for the axle
load display of the Trailer EBS E (see chapter 4.4.4 "Axle load indication",
page 20).
This improves the precision of the axle load indication. The more precise the vehi-
cle weight is determined and the pressure sensors can be calibrated, the more
precise the axle load indication will be. With an incorrect calibration, the axle load
indication also shows incorrect values!
The brake pressure output is not affected by this calibration, in this case, the val-
ues defined by the vehicle manufacturer apply.
Operation and Functions
35
The calibration is performed in three different load states (trailer physically laden).
The exact vehicle weight must be determined using a calibrated scale.
The calibration must then be performed again if air-suspension or Trailer EBS E
modulator is replaced.
Calibration points
The greater the weight difference between the individual calibration points, the
more precise the axle load is displayed. Calibration point "Partially laden" is op-
tional and does not have to be performed.
• Unladen
• Partially laden (optional)
In partially laden status, the vehicle weight should be centered between the ve-
hicle weight in unladen and fully laden status.
• Fully laden
Prerequisites
• Trailer EBS E1 with software version TE14013
• SmartBoard with software as of version SB010207
• With drawbar trailers, another pressure sensor must be installed on the axle
that brakes via the 3rd modulator.
While calibrating, the parking brake and the service brake must be released.

Assembly and installation
Prior to installation, retrofitting, or repair of the SmartBoard, ensure the fol-
lowing instructions are observed:
Only trained and qualified personnel may perform this work.
Make sure to follow the specifications and instructions of the vehicle manufacturer.
Always comply with the company and national accident prevention guidelines and
Health and Safety regulations.
When working on the brake system, the vehicle must be secured against rolling
away.
Wear suitable protective clothing when necessary.
The workplace has to be dry, as well as sufficiently lit and ventilated.
– Make sure that you install the ADR version (446 192 111 0) of the SmartBoard
in ADR vehicles (see chapter 2.1 "SmartBoard for ADR (GGVS) vehicles",
page 9).
– Disconnect the power supply to the towing vehicle. Consider any risks with re-
gard to the short circuiting of batteries in the vehicle see chapter 1.1 "Measures
for avoiding electro-static charge and uncontrolled discharging (ESD)", page 7.
– Select the appropriate wiring diagram according to your system configuration
(see chapter 8.3 "Circuit diagrams", page 54).
– Select an installation location on the frame that is easily accessible for the user
and that can be reached by the planned connecting cable.
The installation location should be protected from spray water or be located on
the operating console.
– Use the drilling template for performing any drilling (see chapter 8.4 "Drilling
template", page 56).
– Fasten the device on vehicle frames with four M8 bolts and tighten the bolts se-
curely. Tightening torque: 15 Nm +/-15 %.
– Install cables according to the circuit diagram in parallel with already existing
wiring harnesses. Form large loops from ample lengths.
– Cable the SmartBoard with the Trailer EBS modulator. Press the cable plug-
connector into the slot applying a little initial force. All connections must be as-
signed a cable or have a closing cap.
– Fasten the cable only on solid elements that are connected with the compo-
nents, e. g. the vehicle frame. Fastening to flexible elements can cause cable
breaks and the seal can be broken.
Fasten the cable and plug so that no tension or lateral forces affect the plug-in
connections. Avoid laying cables across sharp edges or near aggressive media
(acids for example).
Fasten the cable a maximum of 30 cm after the device, e. g. with a cable tie.
The SmartBoard casing must not be opened unless the battery needs to be re-
placed by a specialist workshop.

6.1
Diagnostic Connection
The diagnosis is performed via the diagnostic port of the Trailer EBS E or the ISO
plug-in connection via CAN. For this purpose, the SmartBoard must be connected
to the Trailer EBS and the vehicle must be supplied with power via the ABS socket.
ISO7638 towing vehicle/trailer interface
For diagnosis via the ISO 7638 towing vehicle-/trailer interface, an ISO 7638 con-
nection adapter is installed between the coiled flex-cable from the towing vehicle
and the ISO 7638 plug-in socket.

WABCO offers you a workshop-suitable, impact- and contamination-resistant lap-
top. This "Toughbook" with preinstalled Diagnostic Software can be obtained from
WABCO.
The Diagnostic Software will run on all standard PCs with an operating system Mi-
crosoft Windows 2000 or higher however.
There are no other special requirements of the hardware. The PC should however
have a free USB connector or a free serial connector (COM interface 9-pin) to con-
nect the diagnostic interface.
Diagnostic Interface Set
To set up the diagnosis, the WABCO Diagnostic Interface Set with order number
446 301 030 0 (USB connection) is required. The set contains the Diagnostic Inter-
face and a USB connecting cable to the PC or laptop.
The old Diagnostic Interfaces with serial connection (446 301 021 0) and with USB
connection (446 301 022 0) can still be used.
6.3
Diagnostic Software
There are three ways to obtain the Diagnostic Software:
• Offline as a USB stick version
• Online as a single download
• As a part of a WABCO system diagnostics subscription
For the diagnosis of multiple WABCO systems, WABCO offers you four different
Diagnostic Software subscriptions via the Internet. These contain numerous diag-
nostic programs at one very low price.
On the Internet, on Web page www.wabco-auto.com in the quick access area, click
on "Diagnosis" and then on "WABCO System Diagnostics". There, you will find fur-
ther information and can order the Diagnostic Software in your language and to
load onto your PC.
Diagnostic Software “SmartBoard”
With diagnostic software "SmartBoard" (WABCO number 246 301 609 0), the
SmartBoard can be configured to customer specifications.
6.4.1
Parameter setting
The parameter settings dialogue is opened via the "System" menu item.
fig. 6-1:
Dialogue "Parameter Settings"
The following settings can also be made in the parameter definitions.
• In the menu, the language package A or B can be selected (see
chapter 4.4.13 "Language", page 28).
• To save these settings in the SmartBoard, select the button.
• The settings can also be saved in a parameter file on a PC.
To save the settings in a file, select the button .
• A parameter file previously saved in this way can be loaded into the dialogue by
selecting the button .
• The same button is used to generate a parameter protocol.
Updating the internal operating software of the SmartBoard
The menu item from the menu can be used to
update the operating software of the SmartBoard. The software is provided in the
form of a file.
This file can be selected using the button . The button must be selected to start the download.
Only official operating software approved by WABCO can be downloaded into the
ECU.
In the event that the download is interrupted, it can easily be started again at a later
point. However, the ECU will not function until the download has been completed
successfully. The vehicle is then not permitted to be used on public roads.
6.4.3
Download of the "Splash Image"
The PC Diagnostics provides a dialogue for writing any desired flash image to the
ECU.
For instructions and requirements for creating the file, see chapter 4.6.1 "Start
Screen (Splash Image)", page 39.
– Open menu item from the menu.
– Select splash image using the button .
After it has been selected, it appears in the preview window.
– The splash image is written to the ECU when the button is
pressed.
6.4.4
SmartBoard system plate
The Diagnostic Software can be used to create a SmartBoard system plate that
shows the settings. Attach this system plate clearly visible next to the SmartBoard.
fig. 6-2:

EBS parameters
This function permits the transfer of parameter settings from one Trailer EBS
Modulator into a new modulator of the same type. This facilitates replacing a defec-
tive modulator (see page 31).
The following conditions apply here:
• Trailer EBS D (Premium) and Trailer EBS E (Standard and Premium) are sup-
ported.
• The modulator that is to receive the parameter settings must be new.
(Definition new: odometer reading <1 km and no initial start-up has yet been
performed)
If this requirement is not met, the menu is not available.
• Only modulators with identical part numbers, software versions, and parameter
versions may be the source / target for the parameter settings.
If this requirement is not met, the message "Modulator not compatible" appears.
• The parameter set is read out from the modulator automatically. This takes
place after the modulator has been commissioned (EOL test performed by cus-
tomer).
The parameter set will not be automatically read out and stored in the Smart-
Board unless the commissioning test (EOL test by customer) has been carried
out.
• The parameter set is read out automatically only once. Subsequent changes
are not taken into account. To take those into account, the parameter set must
be read out manually using the function .
The commissioning test must be performed after the parameter set has been read
into a modulator. The vehicle must be taken to a WABCO Service Centre as soon
as possible for this purpose.
"Battery almost empty" indication
Not available in ADR version 446 192 111 0
The battery is designed to have an average life of five years; this may not be at-
tained, however, if it is subjected to extremely frequent use with an unhitched
trailer.
When the battery only has 10 % of the original charge left, the "Battery almost
empty" indication is displayed for one second after the start logo and the disclaimer
appears for one second after the device is switched on.
If the battery voltage is no longer sufficient to operate the internal real-time clock,
the menu is greyed out. It is then no longer possible
to transmit the time via CAN, i. e. the ODR data of the Trailer EBS E can no longer
be saved together with the time.
The internal odometer reading also does not function.
7.4
Replacing the battery
(not applicable for ADR version 446 192 111 0)
The SmartBoard has a replaceable battery. The battery status can be accessed via
the menu . If the capacity of the battery is
depleted, the SmartBoard can only be used if it is powered from a power supply
provided in the towing vehicle.
A replacement of this battery must be performed by an authorised specialist work-
shop. A repair kit (No. 446 192 920 2) is available for this purpose; it describes the
work steps in detail. Also see the spare part sheet on the Internet at www.wabco-
auto.com under the menu item INFORM.
Batteries are hazardous waste.
Dispose of hazardous waste in an environmentally friendly manner and in compli-
ance with relevant national regulations.
7.5
Care and Cleaning
Use only a damp cloth to clean the SmartBoard. Never use cleaning agents.
Detergents and other chemicals can damage the display and the keyboard and
must never come into contact with the SmartBoard.
