Methods and systems for controlling an information display

摘要

A vehicle instrument system is described. The vehicle instrument system includes an input device configured to receive an input command, a display screen configured to display information, and a processing device coupled to the input device and the display screen. The processing device is configured to determine at least one parameter limit, receive at least one input signal from the input device that corresponds to a manual adjustment of the at least one parameter limit from a first limit value to a second limit value, and provide the second limit value to the display screen for display on the display screen.

1. A vehicle instrument system comprising:
an input device configured to receive an input command; a display screen configured to display information on a sliding scale including a parameter value associated with a parameter associated with the vehicle; at least one sensor configured to provide sensor data signals relating to the parameter; and a processing device coupled to said input device, said at least one sensor, and said display screen, said processing device configured to:
display a current parameter value on the sliding scale, the current parameter value corresponding to the sensor data signals provided by the at least one sensor;determine at least one parameter limit for a first setting of a first parameter indicator;provide the at least one parameter limit to said display screen for display on the sliding scale;receive an adjustment signal from said input device that corresponds to a manual adjustment of the first parameter indicator from the first setting to a second setting of the first parameter indicator; andprovide the second setting to said display screen for display on the sliding scale.
