Automatic Driving Light Control (FLC)

Automatic Driving Light Control (FLC)




Automatic Driving Light Control is a new function that is controlled by the LM.

In order to operate the system, the rotary knob light switch must be placed in the automatic position. An LED illuminates on the switch to indicate that the system is on.

The Rain/Light Sensor detects the surrounding and frontal brightness using two phototransistors.




An internal processor calculates from the measured data if a switch-on situation is needed. The following switch-on situations can be detected:

- Dawn/dusk
- Darkness
- Driving into an underground car park
- Driving through a tunnel
- Precipitation such as rain or snow

If a switch-on situation is needed, this is communicated to the Light Module (via the KCAN-S bus)
