General
The instrument cluster control unit controls all displays in the instrument cluster, either in the head unit/instrument cluster display cluster or in the instrument cluster display. The instrument cluster control unit is connected to the network architecture of the vehicle.
To display information, the instrument cluster control unit processes the following information among other things:
- Terminal status of terminal 15
- Fuel supply
- Engine speed
- Coolant temperature
- Outside temperature
- Requests to display system information
- Requests to output warnings
- Information on the on-board electrical system utilization
Function
The instrument cluster control unit processes the incoming information and prepares it to be shown on the instrument cluster. On vehicles with head-up display, the instrument cluster control unit also prepares the information to be shown on the head-up display. The image data is transferred via the high speed video link (HSVL) interface to the instrument cluster or to the head-up display.
Depending on the equipment installed, the instrument cluster control unit processes the image data in 3D. For this purpose, the driver's head position is detected by the driver camera in the instrument cluster display. Depending on this data, the picture signal in the instrument cluster control unit is calculated and sent to the instrument cluster display. If the driver is not detected, e.g. due to concealment, the 3D display position switches smoothly to a 2D display.
