In a multi-controller engine in which a second controller is controlled at least in part by signals delivered by first controller, the signal preferably is emulated in the first controller prior to transmission to the second engine controller in 10 order to allow the shifting of a timing of a controlled event without direct data transfer from the second controller to the first controller. The technique is particularly well-suited for controlling diesel fuel injection in a dual fuel or other multi-fuel engine. In this case, the first controller must be a dual fuel controller and the second controller may be a diesel controller. 786777112 16 20 2 SDual Fuel Gas Injector(s) Controllers 284 24 Transformer 3 34 22 30 24 a) ob) 3 2 14 Diesel Diesel 18 Controller -Injectors FIG. 1 1/5
