Abstract
A method is provided for monitoring a quiescent state in a motor vehicle. In accordance with the method, a wake-up controller (10) of a control device selects at least one peripheral component from among a plurality of peripheral components of the motor vehicle. The peripheral components are connected to the control device in an event-controlled manner in the quiescent state. The wake-up controller (10) checks an operating state of the selected peripheral component and wakes up the motor vehicle from the quiescent state depending on the operating state.
Claims10
A method for monitoring a quiescent state in a motor vehicle using a control device, the method using a wake-up controller of the control device to perform the following steps:
- selecting at least one peripheral component from among a plurality of peripheral components of the motor vehicle, the peripheral components being connected to the control device, in an event-controlled manner in the quiescent state,
- the wake-up controller checking an operating state of the selected peripheral component, and
- waking up the motor vehicle from the quiescent state depending on the operating state.
A wake-up controller for a control device for monitoring a quiescent state in a motor vehicle, comprising:
- means for selecting at least one peripheral component from among a plurality of peripheral components of the motor vehicle, the peripheral components are connected to the control device, in an event-controlled manner,
- means for checking an operating state of the selected peripheral component, and
- means for waking up the motor vehicle depending on the operating state.
