Abstract
A control device includes a controller configured to confirm a state of charge of an auxiliary battery provided in a vehicle, transmit, in a case where the state of charge is confirmed to be equal to or greater than a threshold value, to an ECU that is predetermined among one or more ECUs, a first instruction to start the ECU that is predetermined at a time point when a period that is predetermined has elapsed from a time point when the state of charge is confirmed to be equal to or greater than the threshold value, and to update data of the ECU that is predetermined by using predetermined data received from a server device, when the ECU that is predetermined is started.
Claims6
A control device that updates data of one or more ECUs provided in a vehicle, the control device comprising a controller configured to:
- confirm, based on data measured by a state-of-charge sensor, a state of charge of an auxiliary battery provided in the vehicle;
- transmit, in a case where the state of charge is confirmed to be equal to or greater than a threshold value, to an ECU that is predetermined among the one or more ECUs, a first instruction to start the ECU that is predetermined at a time point when a period that is predetermined has elapsed from a time point when the state of charge is confirmed to be equal to or greater than the threshold value;
- and
- update data of the ECU that is predetermined by using predetermined data received from a server device, when the ECU that is predetermined is started.
A control device that updates data of one or more ECUs provided in a vehicle, the control device comprising a controller configured to:
- confirm a state of charge of an auxiliary battery provided in the vehicle;
- transmit, in a case where the state of charge is confirmed to be equal to or greater than a threshold value, to an ECU that is predetermined among the one or more ECUs, a first instruction to start the ECU that is predetermined at a time point when a period that is predetermined has elapsed from a time point when the state of charge is confirmed to be equal to or greater than the threshold value;
- and
- update data of the ECU that is predetermined by using predetermined data received from a server device, when the ECU that is predetermined is started.
A control method executed by a control device that updates data of one or more ECUs provided in a vehicle, the control method comprising:
- confirming a state of charge of an auxiliary battery provided in the vehicle;
- transmitting, in a case where the state of charge is confirmed to be equal to or greater than a threshold value, to an ECU that is predetermined among the one or more ECUs, a first instruction to start the ECU that is predetermined at a time point when a period that is predetermined has elapsed from a time point when the state of charge is confirmed to be equal to or greater than the threshold value;
- and
- updating data of the ECU that is predetermined by using predetermined data received from a server device, when the ECU that is predetermined is started.
