Controller Operation
The controller (ECU) is the heart of the ACE system. The controller is the “brains” of the system and
contains the programming (or instructions) needed to properly operate the machine it is installed in. All
controllers currently in use are the same. What makes the controller a Groundsmaster 580-D or a
Reelmaster 5300-D is the software that is programmed into the controller. Initial machine programming is
performed at the factory when the controller is installed into a machine, but can also be performed by an
authorized Toro Distributor if necessary.
Inputs and Outputs
Connected to the controller are a series of INPUT switches. These on/off switch devices send electrical
signals to the controller when an operator has made a request. The controller will then process the input
information, decide what to do, and turn on the correct OUTPUT device to meet the operator's requests.
Important information to remember:

Inputs are usually switches (on/off devices).
Outputs are usually solenoids (load devices).
Note: Not all outputs are solenoids. Diagnostic Lamps are also outputs.
