Controller for functional unit in vehicle has self-learning function that detects number of actuators and/or sensors, switches off unused inputs and/or outputs of controller and/or configures required inputs and/or outputs of controller

摘要

The functional unit has a variable number of actuators and/or sensors (3) and the controller (2) has a self-learning function that detects the number of actuators and/or sensors and switches off the unused inputs and/or outputs of the controller and/or configures the required inputs and/or outputs of the controller. An independent claim is also included for a method of adapting at least one controller to a configuration, whereby the controller is associated with at least one functional unit in a motor vehicle.
