Abstract
An operating system for an adjustable suspension unit having adjustable damping capability includes a suspension control unit which modulates the force imposed upon the body of the motor vehicle by adjusting the force developed by the suspension unit according to the particular stroke of the cycle in which the suspension unit is operating so that the suspension unit will exert a net force upon the body in a desired direction.
