Tasks 

The camera cover control unit controls the opening and closing of the rear camera cover. The camera cover protects the lens of the reversing camera (B84/3) (with CODE 218 (reversing camera)) or the lens of the rear 360° camera (B84/10) (with code 501 (360° camera)) from soiling through external factors (e.g. splash water).

The camera cover control unit has the following tasks:

Reading in of sensors 

The input factors are read in via the following connections:

Direct line 

The camera cover control unit directly reads in the status of the rear camera cover motor switch (M35/2s1).

Interior CAN 

The following signals, among others, are read in via interior CAN:

The functions that use these signals are described in the individual function descriptions (see the appropriate block diagram or function schematic).

Evaluation of input factors 

The input factors that have been read in are evaluated by the integrated microprocessor and the relevant components are then actuated.

Actuation of components 

The camera cover control unit actuates the rear camera cover motor (M35/2) directly.

Output of signals 

The camera cover control unit sends the status of the rear folding cover via interior CAN.
