  5. OPERATION EXPLANATION


    1. The reverse position signal is sent from the shift lever position switch to the parking assist ECU when the shift lever is moved to R.

    2. An appropriate steering angle and timing information can be provided for the driver. This is based on the information from the steering angle sensor signal and the vehicle angle data signal that are sent to the parking assist ECU.

      Tech Tips

      The steering angle sensor signal is used to control parking assist only for estimated guide line mode.

  6. COMMUNICATION SYSTEM OUTLINE


    1. CAN communication system


      1. The panoramic view monitor system uses CAN communication for data communications between the parking assist ECU and each ECU.

      2. If a problem occurs in the CAN communication line, the parking assist ECU outputs a CAN communication malfunction DTC. (To check, use the GTS.)

        Click here

      3. If a problem occurs in the CAN communication line, the parking assist ECU outputs a CAN communication malfunction DTC. (To check, use the multi-display diagnosis screen.)

        Click here

      4. If a CAN communication line malfunction DTC is output, repair the malfunction in the communication line and troubleshoot the panoramic view monitor system when data communication is normal.

      5. Since the CAN communication line has its own length and route, it cannot be repaired temporarily with a bypass wire, etc.

    2. AVC-LAN communication system

      A0029CYE05

      1. The panoramic view monitor system uses the AVC-LAN to communicate with other equipment.

      2. The master device for the AVC-LAN is the navigation receiver assembly*1 or radio and display receiver assembly*2

      3. Resistance necessary for communication transfer (60 to 80 Ω between the TX+ - TX- terminals) is inside the navigation receiver assembly*1 or radio and display receiver assembly*2


        • *1: for Navigation Receiver Type

        • *2: for Radio and Display Type

      4. If a malfunction such as a communication line short, +B short, or GND short occurs in the AVC-LAN circuit, communication is interrupted and the panoramic view monitor system and navigation system do not operate normally.

  7. VIDEO SIGNALS


    1. Video signal circuit

      A002CG4E06

      1. Video signals from the front television camera assembly are input into the parking assist ECU via analog communication lines (vehicle wire harness).

      2. Video signals from the side television camera assembly LH are input into the parking assist ECU via analog communication lines (vehicle wire harness).

      3. Video signals from the side television camera assembly RH are input into the parking assist ECU via analog communication lines (vehicle wire harness).

      4. Video signals from the television camera assembly are input into the parking assist ECU via analog communication lines (vehicle wire harness).

      5. Video signals from the parking assist ECU are input into the navigation receiver assembly*1 or radio and display receiver assembly*2 via AVC-LAN communication line.


        • *1: for Navigation Receiver Type

        • *2: for Radio and Display Type

    2. Screen display


      1. Video signals input from each camera are processed in the parking assist ECU and displayed on the navigation receiver assembly*1 or radio and display receiver assembly*2 as the panoramic view monitor system screen.


        • *1: for Navigation Receiver Type

        • *2: for Radio and Display Type
