Power Consumption Control System: System Description: Outline

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Suzuki Equator. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

IPDM E/R incorporates a power consumption control function that reduces the power consumption according to the vehicle status.
IPDM E/R changes its status (control mode) with the sleep wake up signal received from BCM via CAN communication.
Normal mode (wake-up)
- CAN communication is normally performed with other control units.
- Individual unit control by IPDM E/R is normally performed.
Low power consumption mode (sleep)
- Low power consumption control is active.
- CAN transmission is stopped.
