16 16  The Sensor module is designed to measure any extra analog signals rear of the firewall. For AR26, the module is designed to measure two suspension displacement sensors, two oil temperature, four water pressure, four water temperature, and one air temperature sensor. All of the measurements are then transmitted to a CAN network, which there are two of.

153 -The sensors output latency can be expected to be a lot shorter than the air temperature sensor as the sensor is just a variable sensor based on placement. The limiting factor for the system which uses this information is the CAN-BUS messages from the inverters which send the information each 6.25 milliseconds. This means that the cut-off frequency cannot be any lower than 160 Hz, which will make the same type of low pass filter from the air temperature sensor acceptable with a cut-off frequency of 1591 Hz.
