Abstract
When the power supply state is in the off state and the input voltage is equal to or higher than the prescribed voltage, the electronic control device of the vehicle starts the mask processing when the reception of the wake-up signal by the terminal satisfies the abnormal condition. In the masking process, the execution device does not put the electronic control device in a wake-up state based on the wake-up signal. When the power supply state is turned on after the masking process, the execution device performs a cancellation process of canceling the masking process.
Claims4
An electronic control device for a vehicle, the electronic control device being mounted on the vehicle and operable by consuming, when a power supply state of the vehicle is an off state, electric power stored in a battery when the power supply state is an on state, the electronic control device comprising
- a terminal that is able to receive from outside a wake-up signal indicating a request to bring the electronic control device from a sleep state into a wake-up state in which a greater amount of the electric power is consumed than in the sleep state, the electronic control device further comprising
- an execution unit configured to perform:
- a starting process of bringing the electronic control device into the wake-up state based on the wake-up signal received by the terminal;
- a masking process of not bringing the electronic control device into the wake-up state based on the wake-up signal received by the terminal when the power supply state is the off state and a voltage input to the electronic control device is equal to or more than a prescribed voltage determined in advance, when reception of the wake-up signal by the terminal satisfies an abnormal condition determined in advance;
- and
- a canceling process of canceling the masking process when the power supply state is brought from the off state into the on state after the masking process.
