In-vehicle equipment setup device, in-vehicle equipment setup method, and storage medium

An in-vehicle equipment setup method that is performed by a computer of an in-vehicle equipment setup device for correlating setting information on settings for in-vehicle equipment mounted in a vehicle with each user of the vehicle, the in-vehicle equipment setup method comprising:

• setting a set value indicated by the setting information correlated with current user setting information, which is user setting information corresponding to a current user selected as the user who currently uses the vehicle out of the user setting information which is stored in a storage and in which the setting information desired by each user is correlated with the user, as a reproduction set value for reproducing previous settings for the corresponding in-vehicle equipment for the corresponding in-vehicle equipment;
• acquiring a current set value which is a set value currently set from the in-vehicle equipment;
• updating the set value set for the corresponding in-vehicle equipment as the reproduction set value in the setting information correlated with the current user setting information with the acquired current set value, and operating the corresponding in-vehicle equipment;
• in an absence of a current set value, changing the number of times to repeat an operation of re-acquiring the current set value based on the user being a first user who will continue to use the vehicle or a second user who will temporarily use the vehicle,
• when it is ascertained that there is a non-acquired current set value, the initiating a request to transmit the non-acquired current set value, acquiring the non-acquired current set value, and the updating the non-acquired current set value in a setting information correlated with a user setting information updated with a newly acquired current set value,
• ascertaining whether there is a non-acquired current set value which has not been acquired normally again, and
• storing the user setting information in which set values of setting items are updated with current set values.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program, the program causing a computer of an in-vehicle equipment setup device for correlating setting information on settings for in-vehicle equipment mounted in a vehicle with each user of the vehicle to perform:

• setting a set value indicated by the setting information correlated with current user setting information, which is user setting information corresponding to a current user selected as the user who currently uses the vehicle out of the user setting information which is stored in a storage and in which the setting information desired by each user is correlated with the user, as a reproduction set value for reproducing previous settings for the corresponding in-vehicle equipment for the corresponding in-vehicle equipment;
• acquiring a current set value which is a set value currently set from the in-vehicle equipment;
• updating the set value set for the corresponding in-vehicle equipment as the reproduction set value in the setting information correlated with the current user setting information with the acquired current set value, and operating the corresponding in-vehicle equipment;
• in an absence of a current set value, changing the number of times to repeat an operation of re-acquiring the current set value based on the user being a first user who will continue to use the vehicle or a second user who will temporarily use the vehicle,
• when it is ascertained that there is a non-acquired current set value, the initiating a request to transmit the non-acquired current set value, acquiring the non-acquired current set value, and the updating the non-acquired current set value in a setting information correlated with a user setting information updated with a newly acquired current set value,
• ascertaining whether there is a non-acquired current set value which has not been acquired normally again, and
• storing the user setting information in which set values of setting items are updated with current set values.
