Default Strange Closed Loop while driving

Hello guys,

running RenixCom.exe software I checked that my cherokee xj 1989 (renix)
has a "strange" Closed Loop mode.

In particular:

DELTA_ALFA (always negative) between -70 and -80
SUM_ALFA is always fixed to 0
WARMUP change from 2 to 0

On "const.$$$" the SUM_ALFA = 38

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
Lucio.

SOLVED!!!!
I replaced the Renix ECU with another one (used) and now the battery voltage measured by the ECU is 14V (instead of 4.6V).

My ideas were right: an internal ECU component damaged.
Cause: alternator + voltage regulator fail --> overvoltage --> ECU damaged (but operative)
Corrective Action: ECU replaced --> WORKS.

Now goes in closed loop very immediately and it's perfect.

Below a screenshot of the ECU diagnose with RenixCom software.

Thanks to everybody for the support!!!
