Patent ID: 7882789

Claim:
A configurable powered system for controlling engine emissions of a power generating unit, said power generating unit including an engine operating on a plurality of fuel types, said system comprising: a processor carried on the power generating unit; a plurality of operational input devices for a respective fuel tank for said plurality of fuel types, said operational input devices being coupled to said processor; a plurality of end use devices including said plurality of fuel tanks for said plurality of fuel types on the power generating unit controlled by the processor; a configuration input device in communication with the processor for generating a respective configuration signal indicative of each of a particular location of the power generating unit along a predetermined course comprising a mission; and wherein said processor is responsive to said operational input devices and configuration signals for generating at least one set of control signals to said end use devices to limit at least one of the total engine emissions of said plurality of fuel types, the total fuel efficiency of said plurality of fuel types, the total output power of said engine, a time of arrival for said power generating unit over said predetermined course, and a combination thereof, to a respective stored engine emission profile, stored engine efficiency profile, stored output power profile, and time of arrival restriction for each configuration signal indicative of each particular location of said power generating unit along said predetermined course comprising said mission.
