Driving status judgment criterion
Scheme 82
- The driving status is judged from the vehicle speed signal received from the combination meter via CAN communication. The driving status is displayed on the multi display unit and operation restrictions are applied as necessary.
- The engine torque, engine power, boost, and instantaneous fuel consumption are provided for information purposes only. They are not intended to prompt the driver to adjust driving style. The readings may be slightly delayed relative to the actual vehicle behaviors. This is not a malfunction.
- The voltmeter reading cannot be used as an indicator for battery replacement because it indicates the input voltage to the multi display unit, not the battery voltage.
- The SET UP screen are viewable and operable only while the vehicle is stopped.
- The ECO information screen is operable only while the vehicle is stopped.
- If no time setting is performed, the daily and weekly fuel consumption history data are not displayed.
- The readings may differ from the actual values depending on driving conditions.
Description
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time applications. It is an on-board multiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. A modern vehicle is equipped with many ECUs, and each control unit shares information and links with other control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, 2 control units are connected with 2 communication lines (CAN-L-line and CAN-H-line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring. Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
Refer to " CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM: CAN COMMUNICATION SIGNAL CHART " for details of the communication signal.
