  2. OPERATION


    1. Remote Touch Operation


      1. On some screens, such as a map screen, when the switch knob of the remote touch is operated, the pointer will be displayed on the multi-display screen. When the pointer is moved near an icon, the icon will be displayed as a cursor and can be selected by pushing the switch knob.

      2. On screens other than those such as map screens, when the switch knob of the remote touch is operated, feedback force, which draws the knob toward the nearest icon, is generated and the nearest icon is highlighted.

      9. The feedback force that is generated when an icon is selected is customizable using the remote touch.

      10. To inform the user that the cursor has selected a different icon or an operation is accepted, 3 types of beep sounds (selection sound, pointer sound, error sound) are provided in accordance with operation conditions. The ON/OFF setting of each beep sound is individually customizable.

    2. Feedback Control


      1. The switch knob of the remote touch consists of the joystick and 2 motors that enable 2-axis control in longitudinal and lateral directions.


        • - The 2 motors generate feedback force according to screen button and icon locations, achieving a 'click' feeling during operation.

        • - The 2 motors provide 3 types of feedback force (resistance, icons, frame). Overlapping feedback forces are added together.

        Feedback Force Description
        Resistance Feedback force, which interferes the switch knob operation, is generated in proportion to the switch knob operation speed. Resistance generated on the map screen is stronger than on other screens (MENU screen, etc.)*.
        Icon Force is provided to pull the pointer toward the center of the set area (near icons).
        Frame Force is generated to move the pointer toward the inside of the screen when the pointer is close to the edge of the screen.

        *: When the multiple display function is in use, resistance is generated along the boundaries of the multiple display screens.
