Abstract
A system for controlling a vehicle condition check light by using a dynamic welcome light (DWL) mode includes a lamp unit provided in a vehicle and having a plurality of light sources arranged therein. The system also includes: a lamp control unit configured to turn on the lamp unit; a first component control unit configured to receive a first state information signal of a first component and transmit the first state information signal to the lamp control unit; and a first domain control unit configured to transmit a DWL operating signal to the lamp control unit when a DWL operation condition is satisfied.
Claims15
A system for controlling a vehicle condition check light by using a dynamic welcome light (DWL) mode, the system comprising:
- a lamp unit provided in a vehicle and having a plurality of light sources arranged therein;
- a lamp control unit configured to control an operation of turning on the lamp unit;
- a first component control unit configured to receive a first state information signal of a first component and transmit the first state information signal to the lamp control unit;
- and
- a first domain control unit configured to transmit a DWL operating signal to the lamp control unit when a DWL operation condition is satisfied,
- wherein the lamp control unit is configured to control the operation of turning on vehicle condition display units constituting the lamp unit according to a set DWL mode in which the DWL operating signal and the first state information signal are matched, and
- wherein the lamp control unit is configured to inspect whether the plurality of light sources constituting the lamp unit is normally turned on by performing control to turn on the light source at a frequency of 2 Hz or lower.
A system for controlling a vehicle condition check light by using a dynamic welcome light (DWL) mode, the system comprising:
- a lamp unit provided in a vehicle and having a plurality of light sources arranged therein;
- a lamp control unit configured to control an operation of turning on the lamp unit;
- a first component control unit configured to receive a first state information signal of a first component and transmit the first state information signal;
- a high-level control unit configured to receive the first state information signal and transmit the first state information signal to the lamp control unit;
- and
- a first domain control unit configured to transmit a DWL operating signal to the lamp control unit when a DWL operation condition is satisfied,
- wherein the lamp control unit is configured to receive selection mode information, which is a turn-on control mode of the lamp unit, from the high-level control unit and to control an operation of turning on vehicle condition display units, which are a portion of the light sources constituting the lamp unit, according to a set DWL mode in which the DWL operating signal and the first state information signal are matched, and
- wherein the lamp control unit is further configured to inspect whether the plurality of light sources constituting the lamp unit is normally turned on by performing control to turn on the light source at a frequency of 2 Hz or lower.
