Abstract
The present invention relates to a control method of a wheel alignment apparatus using an MDPS, which determines whether or not to cancel center alignment control due to a trouble or error is preferentially determined prior to each control step and then performs control when wheels of a vehicle having an MDPS mounted therein are aligned, such that the trouble or error is preferentially considered in the control priority, thereby increasing driver's convenience and improving safety performance for protecting the driver.
Claims5
A control method of a wheel alignment apparatus using a motor-driven power steering (MDPS), comprising:
- determining, by a wheel alignment control unit, whether or not a current condition is a compulsory cancellation condition during initialization, and then determining whether or not a current state is a standby state;
- determining whether the current condition is the compulsory cancellation condition when it is determined that the current condition is the standby state, and receiving a state of a vehicle when an operating command for center alignment of wheels of the vehicle is inputted;
- determining whether the current condition is the compulsory cancellation condition or a normal cancellation condition, through the received vehicle state;
- generating a request value for center alignment of the wheels by determining the operating state, when the current condition is the normal cancellation condition;
- and
- receiving the vehicle state to determine whether the current condition is the compulsory cancellation condition or the normal cancellation condition, and driving an MDPS based on the request value.
