DFCO is triggered by specific conditions n different cars, and doesn't necessarily show on SG or UG.
My 2002 Nissan Sentra had a a primitive DFCO implementation. It had to be >2500 rpm and decelerating in gear, with the TPS at idle position. With the 6 speed transmission, DFCO didn't kick in under 70 mph in he Sentra in top gear. Worse, when it did kick in, it put the ECU in open loop for the next 4 minutes.
My 2006 Scion is a DFCOing fool by comparison. DFCO kicks in with any engine rpm >1500 when in gear with TPS at idle. That means it DFCOs at any speed >35 mph in top gear, and it goes into closed loop immediately after exiting DFCO.
