Abstract
A control module for adjusting the view angle of a rearview mirror via a controller area network (CAN) bus is disclosed. The control module is connected to a CAN bus and a rearview mirror of a vehicle. Upon reading and decoding a digital encoded signal which is transmitted on the vehicular digital bus and corresponds to a turning operation of the vehicle, the control module adjusts a view angle of the monitor device according to the decoded information.
Claims23
A control module being in communication with a vehicular digital bus and a monitor device of a vehicle, reading and decoding a digital encoded signal transmitted on said vehicular digital bus and corresponding to a turning operation of said vehicle, and adjusting a view angle of said monitor device according to the decoded information.
A monitor device control module for use with a vehicular control system, said vehicular control system comprising a plurality of control modules which controls various electric assemblies, respectively, and being in communication with each other via a vehicular digital bus, said monitor device control module being in communication with said vehicular digital bus, reading and decoding a first digital encoded signal which is asserted by one of said control modules of said vehicular control system, transmitted on said vehicular digital bus and corresponds to a turning operation of said vehicle, and asserting a second signal to adjust a view angle of a monitor device.
A vehicular control system, comprising:
- a vehicular digital bus;
- a first control module in communication with said vehicular digital bus and an indicator light, and enabling said indicator light in response to a first vehicular digital signal asserted in response to an enabling operation of an indicator-light switch;
- and
- a second control module in communication with said vehicular digital bus, reading and decoding said first digital encoded signal, and adjusting a view angle of a monitor device according to the decoded information.
