Claim 0:
1. An electronically controlled pneumatic brake system for a vehicle, the system comprising:
a front-axle brake circuit with a single-channel front-axle modulator configured to activate a first front-axle service-brake actuator and a second front-axle service-brake actuator;
a first front-axle ABS valve interposed between the single-channel front-axle modulator and the first front-axle service-brake actuator;
a second front-axle ABS valve interposed between the front-axle modulator and the second front-axle service-brake actuator:
a rear-axle brake circuit with at least one single-channel rear-axle modulator configured to activate a first rear-axle service-brake actuator and a second rear-axle service-brake actuator:
a first rear-axle ABS valve interposed between the at least one rear-axle modulator and the first rear-axle service-brake actuator;
a second rear-axle ABS valve interposed between the at least one rear-axle modulator and the second rear-axle service-brake actuator;
a braking-value transducer having at least one electrical terminal for providing an electronic braking request signal:
a central electronic control unit connected at least to the braking-value transducer for receiving the electronic braking request signal;
the central electronic control unit being further connected to the single-channel front-axle modulator and the at least one single-channel rear-axle modulator for controlling the single channel front-axle modulator and the at least one single-channel rear-axle modulator; and,
wherein the central electronic control unit is formed as a structural unit with at least one of the at least one single-channel rear-axle modulator and the single-channel front-axle modulator.
