Transmission Data And Transmission Order
Unified meter and A/C amp. data is transmitted consecutively to each of the door motors following the form shown in figure below.
Start:
Initial compulsory signal is sent to each of the door motors.
Address:
Data sent from the unified meter and A/C amp. are selected according to data-based decisions made by the air mix door motor, mode door motor and intake door motor.
If the addresses are identical, the opening angle data and error check signals are received by the door motor LCUs. The LCUs then make the appropriate error decision. If the opening angle data have no error, door control begins.
If an error exists, the received data are rejected and corrected data received. Finally, door control is based upon the corrected opening angle data.
Opening Angle:
Data that shows the indicated door opening angle of each door motor.
Error Check:
In this procedure, transmitted and received data is checked for errors. Error data are then compiled. The error check prevents corrupted data from being used by the air mix door motor, the mode door motor and the intake door motor. Error data can be related to the following symptoms.
- Malfunction of electrical frequency
- Poor electrical connections
- Signal leakage from transmission lines
- Signal level fluctuation
Stop Signal:
At the end of each transmission, a stop operation, in-operation, or internal malfunction message is delivered to the unified meter and A/C amp. This completes one data transmission and control cycle.
