# Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/654 of 19 December 2016 supplementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1628 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to technical and general requirements relating to emission limits and type-approval for internal combustion engines for non-road mobile machinery, Division 7.6: Engine mapping

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Before starting the engine mapping, the engine shall be warmed up and towards the end of the warm up it shall be operated for at least 10 minutes at maximum power or according to the recommendation of the manufacturer and good engineering judgement in order to stabilize the engine coolant and lube oil temperatures. When the engine is stabilized, the engine mapping shall be performed.
Where the manufacturer intends to use the torque signal broadcast by the electronic control unit, of engines so equipped, during the conduct of in-service monitoring tests according to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/655 on monitoring of emissions of in-service engines, the verification set out in Appendix 3 shall additionally be performed during the engine mapping.
Except constant-speed engines, engine mapping shall be performed with fully open fuel lever or governor using discrete speeds in ascending order. The minimum and maximum mapping speeds are defined as follows:
Minimum mapping speed warm idle speed
Maximum mapping speed n hi × 1,02 or speed where max torque drops off to zero, whichever is smaller.
Where:
n hi is the high speed, as defined in Article 1(12).
If the highest speed is unsafe or unrepresentative (e.g., for ungoverned engines), good engineering judgement shall be used to map up to the maximum safe speed or the maximum representative speed.
