DIM Wake-up/Sleep States

The DIM is able to control or perform all of the DIM functions in the wake-up state. The DIM enters the sleep state when active control or monitoring of system functions has stopped, and the DIM has become idle again. The DIM must detect certain wake-up inputs before entering the wake-up state. The DIM monitors for these inputs during the sleep state, where the DIM is able to detect switch transitions that cause the DIM to wake-up when activated or deactivated. Multiple switch inputs are needed in order to sense both the insertion of the ignition key and the power mode requested. This would allow the DIM to enter a sleep state when the key is IN or OUT of the ignition.

The DIM will enter a wake-up state if any of the following wake-up inputs are detected:
^ Activity on the serial data line.
^ Detection of a battery disconnect and reconnect condition.
^ Door ajar switch.
^ Headlamps are on.
^ Hood ajar switch.
^ Ignition is turned ON.
^ Key-in-ignition switch.
^ Parklamps are on.

The DIM will enter a sleep state when all of the following conditions exist:
^ Ignition switch is OFF.
^ No activity exists on the class 2 serial data line.
^ No outputs are commanded.
^ No delay timers are actively counting.
^ No wake-up inputs are present.

If all these conditions are met the DIM will enter a low power or sleep condition. This condition indicates that the DIM, which is the PMM of the vehicle, has sent an OFF-ASLEEP message to the other systems on the serial data line.
