Bosch MotorsportBefore Use | 2

2 Before Use
Read these instructions carefully and follow the recommendations for use step by step.
We are happy to give you additional notes and explanations. Our contact information is
on the back cover of this manual.

2.1 Safety Information
DANGERFor use by professionals exclusively.
Using the system does not come without risks.

The ABS M5 Kit was developed for use by professionals and requires in-depth knowledgeof automobile technology and experience in motorsport. Using the system does not comewithout its risks.

WARNINGUse on public roads prohibited.
Bosch shall not be held responsible or liable for damages caused from use on publicroads.

It is the duty of the customer to use the system for motor racing purposes only and not
on public roads. We accept no responsibility for the reliability of the system on publicroads. If the system is used on public roads, we shall not be held responsible or liable fordamages.
Any maintenance or repair must be performed by authorized and qualified personnel approved by Bosch Motorsport.
All system parts are designed to work together and may not be replaced with similar parts
without our expressed permission (this includes the wiring harness). For first time purchases, each team or owner must purchase a complete kit, which includes a wiring harness. Spare parts may be purchased after a complete kit has been purchased. The use ofunauthorized parts or wiring harnesses will not be supported by Bosch Motorsport; additionally the system cannot be guaranteed to work properly and/or without limitations.
It is essential that the predefined Bosch Motorsport assembly guidelines are compliedwith the system to run properly, see section Assembling the Parts [} 17]. This applies
above all for installing the MIL (malfunction indication lamp) within the driver's range ofvisibility.

2.2 ABS in Motorsport
The ABS function is a compromise between drivability and braking performance. Drivability is the primary focus for passenger based vehicles. The ABS is designed to keep the passenger vehicle maneuverable and stable under any circumstances and under any conceivable driving conditions.

Standard OEM ABS
Operating Range

Vehicle Stability During Braking

In a motorsport context, this compromise shifts towards braking performance, as experienced drivers can still control a slightly unstable vehicle. Together with different tire structures and higher braking potential, a racecar is capable of greatly increased deceleration
rates. To consider different chassis tuning and tires, ABS M5 has eleven control settingsplus an OFF-position. With this, the driver can choose the best setting for his vehicle. For
calibration drives, the ABS function can be deactivated separately, whereby all ABS sensor
signals are transmitted and processed furthermore (OFF-position of the ABS switch).

2.3 Principle of Operation
ABS M5 is suitable for front-wheel, rear-wheel and four-wheel drive vehicles. It isbased on a series production ABS M5and adapted in years of development work to meet
motorsport requirements, e.g. FIA requirements for using only eight active valves.
The ABS M5 prevents the wheels from locking during braking. It does this by constantly
measuring the individual wheel speeds and comparing them with the vehicle speed predicted by the system. If, during braking, the measured wheel speed deviates from the system's predicted vehicle speed, the ABS M5 controller takes over, correcting the brakeforce to keep the wheel at the optimum slip level and so achieving the highest possible
deceleration rate. This is carried out separately for each wheel.
When the brake force is reduced by the ABS M5, brake fluid is released from the brakecaliper and fed into the pressure reservoir of the hydraulic power unit of the ABS M5. The
hydraulic power unit then feeds the fluid back into the master cylinder via a piston pumpdriven by an electric motor. The driver can hear this return pumping of the brake fluid andfeel the response of the brake pedal.

2.4 Features
Note: In the following, we only refer to the ABS M5 scale, standard. You can use the ABS
M5 scale, alternative, if your ABS M5 is switched off in position 1.

6 / 56

ABS_M5_Kit_Manual

Bosch MotorsportBefore Use | 2

The ABS M5 has eleven different control settings, selectable via a switch in the cockpit(position 1 to 11 with OFF on position 12 or position 2 to 12 with OFF on position 1).
The ABS map switch in the cockpit enables the driver to select various control settings
stored in the control device. Using the standard ABS scale, it starts with switch position 1
for the most sensitive controller setting (e.g. heavy rain condition). The configured control
settings allow progressively more slip as the position of the dial gets numerically higher.
With switch position 11, the most aggressive settings are achieved. Your optimal setting is
not necessarily the most aggressive.
– Calibration
In case of need, the calibration of the 11 control maps can be done by Bosch
Motorsport ABS engineers.
– Switch off ABS functions for calibration drives
Switching off the ABS functions can be very helpful, e.g. for adjustment of the brakebalance bar. OFF-position will be signalized by lit MIL (Malfunction Indication Lamp).
All ABS sensor signals will still be communicated. ABS should be turned off in any
case where the drive wheels are spinning while the car is stationary, e.g. during warmup or when on the dynamometer. No error entry will take place.
– Measuring vehicle dynamics
Due to specially‐adapted chassis and tires, racing vehicles allow for significantly
higher longitudinal and lateral acceleration rates than series production vehicles. Our
ABS M5 sensors constantly measure vehicle acceleration and lateral forces as well as
the pressure of the front and rear brake circuit.
– Programming and diagnosis software
Each ABS M5 can be configured with specific data related to the vehicle, such as
vehicle mass, wheelbase, track width, tire rolling circumference, etc. Should the vehicle
data change at any time, you can adapt the system settings by using the RaceABS diagnostic software. You find the software for free download on our website
www.bosch-motorsport.com. The new RaceABS diagnostic tool will also work witholder ABS M4 systems.
– Performing a system function test
The system function test can diagnose the functional capability without having tomove the vehicle.
– Reading data from the error log
Any missing part or incorrectly connected electrical connection of ABS operation-critical components are signaled by a lit MIL. In the error log you can read and analyze
what errors have set the MIL and then delete the errors after the issue has been resolved. Noncritical faults are stored without activating the MIL.

2 | Before Use– Repair Bleeding Wizzard
Step‐by‐step instructions will guide you through bleeding the ABS unit, see also Repair Bleeding Wizard [} 32].
– Connectivity for data loggers and displays
You can connect a data logger (e.g. the C 70 from Bosch Motorsport) to the ABS‐Wiring‐Harness via CAN. The CAN Bus can give you wheel speeds and other readings
from the system. All ABS M5 CAN messages can be displayed on any programmable,
CAN‐compatible display (e.g. the DDU 9 und DDU 10 from Bosch Motorsport), seealso chapter “CAN Protocol V19 customer from 0700 onwards [} 40]”.
– Switch the system on and off
Switch the system on or off via switch in the cockpit.
– Reset the system
Reset the system by switching to position OFF and back to ON.

5 | Adaptations to your Vehicle

5 Adaptations to your Vehicle
Physical vehicle data
For optimum brake performance, each ABS M5 unit has to be customized to suit thevehicle in which it is to be used. To do this, the system can be programmed by the user
with certain data, such as the vehicle weight, vehicle dimensions, wheel circumference,
and wheel weight. The system then uses this data as basis for calculation. Bosch will also
program this data ahead prior to delivery; however, it is very important that you calibrate
or verify the data prior to operating the vehicle.
You can find a form to fill in your vehicle data on www.bosch‐motorsport.com. This formshould be provided to you by your dealer with the order of the kit if the kit shall be programmed by Bosch.

Wiring harness
Each ABS system is delivered with a wiring harness that we have specifically created in accordance with customer requests.
With every Clubsport ABS you receive a standard wiring harness, which is not customized.
Please see Wiring Harness ABS M5 Clubsport [} 53].

CAUTIONUse of ABS M4 wiring loom on ABS M5 system will damage the unit.
Though the connectors of both systems are identical, both systems require their own wiring loom.

System environment and related requirements
Is the ABS system being used as a closed stand-alone system? Or is it net-worked with acontrol unit?
If the system is networked with a standard control unit, we recommend that you use our
speed/acceleration sensor with a CAN rate of 500 kBaud to avoid compatibility issues.
Check the CAN speed in order to choose the same value for the ABS Kit.
If the system is networked with a motorsport control unit or used as self-sufficient standalone-system, we recommend that you use our speed/acceleration sensor with a CAN rateof 1 MBaud. This version features a greater measuring range.
If the system is networked with an ECU MS 6 or MS 7, we recommend that you use our
speed/acceleration sensor with a CAN rate of 1 MBaud to avoid compatibility issues.

NOTICETo avoid message ID conflicts care should be taken when networking
with a production CAN bus.
Was or is the vehicle already fitted with an ABS system? Was or is it an old BOSCH ABS system?
ABS M5 requires signals from differential dual Hall sensors such as the Bosch DF11 or similar to function correctly. These sensor types are used in new vehicles for ABS and ESP®
systems and can be carried over for the ABS M5. The DF11 sensor element was first deployed by Bosch in 2006. Conventional inductive and Hall sensors found in older series

production ABS units will not function as transmitters for the ABS M5. If your vehicle contains an older ABS system, you have to remove the wheel speed sensors and replace themby the sensors includes in the package to be able to use the ABS M5.
If you are not sure if your sensors are compatible with ABS M5, Bosch Motorsport will
gladly check that for you.
If you are fitting your vehicle with an ABS system for the first time, you may need an encoder wheel for each wheel and a sensor mount to record the wheel speeds. Please pay
attention to the fitting position of the wheel speed sensors.
Do the wheel speed signals need to be communicated to other control units?

Assembling the Parts | 7

7 Assembling the Parts
7.1 Hydraulic Power Unit with attached Control
Unit

The hydraulic power unit with attached control unit has six hydraulic connections: two forthe master cylinders (one for the front and one for the rear axle) and four for the brakecylinders.

CAUTION

The hydraulic power unit is prefilled with brake fluid. During assembly, make sure as little brake fluid as possible is lost.
When installing the hydraulic power unit, make sure the wheel brake line connections arefacing upwards to ensure air can be bled out. Secure the hydraulic power unit to the assembly plate supplied with the ABS M5 using the M10x1 screw thread on the underside of
the casing. To reduce vibration, rubber pads should be fitted between the assembly plate
and the vehicle chassis. To allow easy connection of the main ABS ECU connector, maintain a 10 mm distance between the vehicle chassis and the bottom of the assembly plate.

NOTICE

Correct position for installation: wheel brake line connections should
face upwards.
Install with rubber pads/blocks to reduce vibration.
Leave 10 mm or larger gap in between the vehicle chassis and bottom of assembly plate.
For more on assembly see Offer Drawing Hydraulic Unit [} 44].

NOTICE

Conform to FIA rules for GT3
With only 8 active hydraulic valves, the ABS M5 conforms to FIA
rules regarding brake modulation hardware.

Bosch Motorsport

ABS_M5_Kit_Manual

17 / 56

7 | Assembling the Parts

NOTICEWe recommend an exchange of the hydraulic power unit after one
year.
In racing vehicles, hydraulic units are subjected to significantly higher loads than in production vehicles. We therefore recommend replacing them even when they are fully functional, to keep the residual risk of failure as low as possible.

7.2 Brake Pressure Sensor

Install the brake pressure sensors into the front and rear axle brake circuits between themaster cylinders and the hydraulic power unit. The sensors are metric thread, M10x1. Before assembly, fill the sensors with brake fluid, e.g. with a small medical syringe. So thebrake system can be fully bled, the measuring holes of the brake pressure sensors should
point upwards.

NOTICEThe use of other than the supplied sensors will destroy the unit permanently. ABS M4 sensors are not compatible with ABS M5.
Install into the front and rear axle brake circuit between the master cylinder and the hydraulic power unit as far away from the ABS unit as possible to avoid damages due to vibration.
Fill sensor with brake fluid before installing.
For more on assembly see Offer Drawing Brake Pressure Sensor [} 46].

7.3 Wheel Speed Sensors

Bosch Motorsport ABS M5 needs specific wheel speed signals, which are supplied only
from active speed sensors like e.g. from Bosch DF11-family. These double hall sensors operate on the differential principle. The ABS M5 needs all four speed sensors to function;otherwise the system assumes there is an error and shuts down. Therefore, you should exclusively use the speed sensors as supplied in the ABS M5-Kit (see section Offer Drawing
Wheel Speed Sensor [} 45]). Existing wheel speed sensors can be tested and approvedby us.
Pay attention to the polarity when you are connecting wheel speed sensors.
Install the sensor in the right direction, i.e. the encoder wheel and sensor must lie in thedefined installation position (fixation screw in rotation position of the encoder wheel). The
sensor will not work if you install it in a position other than the recommended installation

18 / 56

ABS_M5_Kit_Manual

Assembling the Parts | 7

position. Make sure the sensor is mounted and secured as tight as possible to prevent
sensor errors or failures from vibration. You can find the sensor's dimensions and how to
install the sensor on Offer Drawing Wheel Speed Sensor [} 45].

NOTICEUse only differential sensors, like Bosch DF11 or similar. Supported
sensors: DF11i, DF11S and DF11V.

Securely mount sensors and pay attention to correct mounting position (sensors direction
sensitive). Choose sensor mounts that are as still as possible. Sensor dimensions andmounting requirements can be found in the Offer Drawing Wheel Speed Sensor [} 45].

7.4 Encoder Wheel
Encoder wheels usually have 48 teeth. The tooth/gap ratio should be 50 % and the teeth
should be 3 mm in height. The encoder wheel must be made of a ferromagnetic material.
If required, Bosch Motorsport can provide technical documentation on positioning the encoder wheel. See the back cover of this booklet for our contact information.

7.5 Distance between the Sensor and the
Encoder Wheel
You can adjust the distance between the sensor and the encoder wheel to fit the encoder
wheel's dimensions and other installation conditions, but gap is normally between 0.8 ±0.1 mm.

NOTICEUse a ferromagnetic incremental wheel.
Leave a 0.8 ± 0.1 mm gap between sensor and encoder wheel.
For more on assembly see Offer Drawing Wheel Speed Sensor [} 45].

7.6 Yaw/Acceleration Sensor

Bosch Motorsport

ABS_M5_Kit_Manual

19 / 56

7 | Assembling the Parts

ABS M5 uses a yaw rate sensor from the MM5.10 generation with CAN speeds of 500
kBaud or 1 MBaud. The yaw/acceleration sensor is specific to the system and should be
mounted as close as possible to the center of gravity of the vehicle. The sensor should beassembled with the supplied damping plate. Position the sensor so that the connector ispointing towards the rear of the vehicle.

NOTICEFor system combination with ECU MS 6 or MS 7, the 1 MBaud sensor
is required.
The ABS system will not work if you choose any alternative yaw rate sensor.

NOTICE

Only use the provided kit sensor.
Use the damping plate.
Make sure the sensor is facing the correct direction see image above.

7.7 Map Switch

While driving, the driver can use the map switch to select different control settings andfind the optimum setting for his/her driving style. For this reason, make sure the switch ismounted within reach of the driver. Many have found it helpful to fit a diagram showing
the current switch position, see also Features [} 6], diagram in chapter. The switch positionis also broadcast on the CAN Bus so it can be displayed with a dash (e.g. the DDU 9 and
DDU 10 from Bosch Motorsport).

NOTICE

Only use the supplied Map Switch.
Do not exceed the max. tightening torque of 1 to 2 Nm. Overtorquing can damage the switch or make it difficult to turn.
Remove the front cover of the switch to access the retaining hardware.

7.8 Warning Light (MIL)

LED

Front-panel cut

The included wiring harness is structured in such a way that the power supply to the warning light (MIL) is branched off before the main switch for ABS M5 (terminal 30). This is the
only way to ensure that the warning light (MIL) is lit when ABS M5 is not working.

Cable length connector to electronic board: 600 mm

NOTICE

The MIL will stay illuminated in the following cases:
Map switch is in the OFF position
The user is connected to the car via the RaceABS tool and MSA Box
There is an active fault disabling ABS M5

NOTICE

The MIL will toggle for two seconds
in case of a wheel sensor signal event which will trigger the wheel quality flag. If the event
is too short to trigger an ABS error message, the lamp will toggle for two seconds after
the last event. This signals a possible imminent sensor failure. Passing curbs can affect thisevent.
In case of toggling of the lamp, the ABS control will be frozen for the wheel which is affected over the event duration.

7.9 Brake Lines
All hydraulic connections between ABS M5Use rigid steel brake lines with a diameter of
3.3 mm for as much of the plumbing as possible. Flexible line should be kept to an absolute minimum for optimal brake control and pedal feel.
The ABS M5 units use a DIN (bubble) flare convention common to European OEM applications. The best and simplest way to adapt the system hydraulically is with an M12x1 DIN
tube nut on the ports. Tube nut size should be fitting to the hard line size used. Adaptersshould be avoided if possible.

The EBS unit is secured in the vehicle on the provided mounting board. During operation,
the EBS unit will vibrate. These vibrations are then transferred to the brake lines. To prevent vibration-induced damage to the brake lines, they must not be secured at up to 20
cm from the EBS unit so that they can vibrate freely.

Bosch Motorsport

ABS_M5_Kit_Manual

21 / 56

7 | Assembling the Parts

NOTICEWe recommend using rigid metal brake lines; use flexible lines onlyat points where they are necessary.
Do not secure brake lines 0 to 20 cm from the EBS unit. The unit vibrates and would cause risk of damage to the lines.
Use brake lines with a minimum inside diameter of 3.2 mm.

7.10 Brake Calipers
Use brake calipers that are as stiff as possible. Any flex in the brake caliper causes extra
fluid volume that must be regulated by the ABS M5, which reduces performance.
During ABS M5 operation there will be a significantly higher load on the brake piston
seals. For this reason, brake piston seals will require more frequent monitoring.

NOTICE

Monitor brake piston seals more often.
Use brake calipers that are as stiff as possible.
The higher the brake pressure is, the larger is the elasticity of the brake. A locking pressure of max. 80 bar is optimal.

7.11 Master Cylinders
The master cylinders in a race car equipped with ABS are heavily exposed to piston vibrations due to ABS return fluid pump.
Test and inspect the master cylinders frequently, both to ensure safety as well as to avoid
damage to the ABS unit.

CAUTION

Test and inspect the master cylinder frequently.

7.12 Pressure Medium
Brake components and systems are designed for exclusive use with the following glycol/
glycol ether-based brake fluids, including their mixtures:– DOT 4 (including SAE/ISO/JIS sub-classes)– DOT 5.1
according to– FMVSS 116, Issue 16.10.2015– SAE J 1703, Issue 28.08.2014– SAE J 1704, Issue 28.08.2014– DIN ISO 4925, Issue 05.02.2014

In general, brake components and systems are designed to operate with these genericbrake fluid categories. However, brake fluid characteristics impact performance and reliability.
For use in motor racing, some manufacturers offer fluids with a boiling point of over
300°C. These are highly hygroscopic and therefore should be replaced more often thanusual. Please follow the brake fluid manufacturer's recommendations regarding testing
and changing.

9.2 Features of the Programming and Diagnosis
Software9.2.1 Diagnostic CodeThe ABS M5-ECU sends the stored errors as coded data to RaceABS. These codes are thentranslated by a translation file and displayed on the page “Ecu Info” in RaceABS as plain
text.
After installation of RaceABS, a default file will be used for the translation. If you don´t see
plain text or if there is an orange colored warning, you do not have the matching translation file to your software. With a not matching file, some codes cannot be translated ormight be translated in the wrong way. Therefor it is important to use the correct translation file.
To get the correct translation file, please conduct the following steps:

Bosch Motorsport

9.2.3 Testing
After assembling the system components, you need to carry out a function test before thefirst test drive. This test will ensure all components (electrical and hydraulic) were assembled correctly and are functioning properly. The vehicle should be placed on four jackstands or on a hoist so that all four wheels can be moved freely. If there is no other option, you can lift and test each wheel separately. You will need an assistant to help you
check the hydraulic allocation of the wheels.
Step 1: Testing the communication with the ABS M5 ECU
See section Laptop Communication [} 24].
Step 2: Testing the wheel speed allocations
With the vehicle jacked up, spin individually all four wheels clockwise and check for theproper front/back, left/right allocation. When you spin each wheel, the corresponding position should show a value in the RaceABS software under the “Testing” tab:

You just do this to see if a signal is received by the ABS M5 unit. This is not a signal quality
check.
Step 3: Testing the hydraulic allocations
Have an assistant apply the brake pedal and maintain the brake pressure so all four
wheels of the jacked up vehicle are locked. Therefore, a brake pressure of 15 to 20 bar issufficient. Unlock each wheel successively by clicking on “Release Brake”. The selected
wheel should run free now.

30 / 56

ABS_M5_Kit_Manual

Bosch MotorsportProgramming and Diagnosis Software | 9

NOTICE

Certain vehicles require a high torque input at the wheel to overcome the effect of residual brake pressure and resulting torque.
Step 4: Testing the electrical pump motor
If you click the "Pump" button, the pump motor should run for 10 seconds or till you click
the button again.

Step 5: Testing the function of the brake pressure sensor and brake light switch
Start the RaceABS with connection to the MSA-Box II and press the brake pedal for a few
seconds with slowly rising pressure. The digital display “Brake switch“ bit should toggle
from 0 to 1, see screenshot below.

If the bit does not toggle, check the pressure sensors. The brake light switch bls is a function of the pressure sensors.
The digital display „Pressure sensor“ should show a logical value, e.g. 3.87, in the screenshot below.

Startup Checklist | 10

10 Startup Checklist
This short checklist is intended to supplement the ABS M5’s manual, not replace it. Prior
to using this checklist, the user/installer should read the ABS M5 manual, especially section Laptop Communication [} 24] to Assembling the Parts [} 17].

Basics– Hydraulic unit with attached control unit mounted correctly (mounting plate used,brake lines facing upwards), see section Hydraulic Power Unit with attached Control
Unit [} 17].
– Brake pressure sensor and Yaw/Acceleration sensor installed in proper locations? Seesection Brake Pressure Sensor [} 18] and Yaw/Acceleration Sensor [} 19].
– Everything plugged in to harness, power ring terminals connected to battery, groundring terminals connected to solid and clean chassis ground, circuit breakers installed
properly, map switch turns off system. See section Brake Pressure Sensor [} 18] andYaw/Acceleration Sensor [} 19].

Software Tool and Error Checking– Connect to the ABS M5 control unit with MSA-Box II using RaceABS Software and ensure that all vehicle data has been entered correctly. The vehicle data can be saved
and or loaded by right clicking in the screen.

NOTICE

Once the diagnosis software RaceABS is connected to the harness,
the warning light (MIL) will light up and remain lit until it is disconnected. See section Testing [} 30], Step 2. If the MSA-Box II is notconnected to the laptop, the indication lamp illuminates yellow.
– With the system on, switch to the “ECU Info” page and clear errors with clicking on
Clear FPS. Wait a moment (system will self-refresh error stack). Reset the system byswitching off/on. Check if any errors reappear in the error stack. If errors reappear,
diagnose errors before proceeding. If anything was unplugged during the diagnostic
process, errors will be present and need to be removed from the error stack. Next,
cycle ABS M5 on/off switch and verify no errors are present after cycling power, seesection ECU Info (Diagnostics) [} 34].

Error Notes– In case of use of a wheel speed signal splitter: If the wheel speed signal splitter is disconnected, all four wheel speed sensors will have error entries.

Function Check– While connected with the RaceABS software switch to the “Testing” page. Check all
sensors for plausibility and proper function. Delete the balance bars. Press brake
pedal: brake switch bit should toggle between 0 and 1, the display “Pressure sensor”
should show a logical value. Check sensor and balance bar, if the brake switch doesn’t
toggle. Rotate map switch, the value “Multiswitch” should turn up clockwise. Manually
move yaw/accelerometer sensor to the right and left as well as to the front and rear.
The “Ax” and “Ay”-values should increase positive or negative analogue to the Tilt.
See section Testing [} 30].
