P-bus and I-bus

A bus is a number of wires on which information is sent digitally and serially. Digital means that the voltage difference between two wires has only two values, about 0V or 5V. The information is coded so that different combinations of pulses with values 0V and 5V have different meanings.

Serial means that the information is sent in ”packets” which are transmitted one after the other in rapid succession.

The buses consist of a P-bus (Powertrain Bus) and an I-bus (Instrument Bus). Both buses are connected to the MIU (Main Instrument Unit). The buses are electrically isolated from each other.

Only diesel cars and Viggen have a P-bus. The other petrol engine variants are equipped with the engine management system and automatic transmission from the previous 900 model (T5, M2.10.3 and TCM), which do not have a bus connection.

As in the 9-5, the Airbag and ABS control modules do not have a bus connection.

The diagnostic tool is not connected directly to the bus but communicates via the DICE, one of the control modules connected to the I-bus, and so has access to all control modules connected to the bus.

The data transfer rate on the P-bus is ten times faster than on the I-bus. The reason for this is that the powertrain systems need information as quickly as possible with the least possible delay.

All the information sent from one control module is accessible for all other control modules on the bus. The MIU is responsible for ensuring that information available on one bus is also available on the other bus.

The control modules send out information on the bus at regular intervals. The time between two transmissions depends on the information being sent and varies between 10 milliseconds (0.010 seconds) and 1 second. Information is also sent out by the control modules whenever the information changes.

The transmission of information between the control modules is achieved on two leads, bus+ (green lead) and bus- (white lead). The leads are twisted to increase tolerance to electrical interference.

The main unit uses the following information

Information	Values	From	The value is dependent on the following sensor input, signal or function
Ignition +B	ON/OFF	DICE	Ignition switch. The main unit uses the +B information only as logic voltage.
Key Correct	-	TWICE	Immobilizer operation. The main unit uses the information for the theft protection function of the audio system.
Diagnostics communication		DICE/Diagnostic tool	Control module should be powered and the bus leads intact. For further information on the bus, see Bus and Diagnostics Communication.

The main unit transmits the following information

Information	Values	Used by	The value is dependent on the following sensor input, signal or function
Sound	Acoustic information	SID	Button pressed on dashboard. SID uses the information to activate the type of sound requested from the main unit.
Text message	Text information	SID CDC	Audio display. SID uses the information to show the settings for the current source on the display.
Diagnostics communication	-	DICE/Diagnostic tool	Control module should be live and the bus leads intact For further information on the bus, see Bus and Diagnostics Communication.
