Input factors via direct connections:

IMPORTANT The control of the air cushions via the pressure regulating valve integrated into the lumbar support regulator control unit and the evaluation of the pressure signal are taken over by the corresponding seat control unit. All signals are therefore simply looped through to the seat control unit, which takes over the entire evaluation and control.

Actuation of components 

The following component in the lumbar support regulator control unit is actuated via a direct line from the corresponding seat control unit:

IMPORTANT The control of the air cushions via the pressure regulating valve integrated into the lumbar support regulator control unit and the evaluation of the pressure signal are taken over by the corresponding seat control unit. All signals are therefore simply looped through to the seat control unit, which takes over the entire evaluation and control.

Design 

A pressure sensor and a pressure regulating valve are accommodated in the housing of the lumbar support regulator control unit. This sensor is used to record and monitor pressure and is read in by the corresponding seat control unit. The air pressures in the cushions are also set by the respective seat control unit using the pressure regulating valve integrated into lumbar support regulator control unit. The lumbar support regulator control unit is connected to the corresponding seat control unit via a 6-pin connector. The power is also supplied by the respective seat control unit via this connector.
