Alarming sound control
How to transmit the SPAS system alarming : Transmitting by using the cluster sound source chip
The cluster is controlled by using CAN communication in SPAS ECU.
Type of sound color: Realization of sound color in 3 frequency range (Front alarming, rear alarming and beep sound alarming)
The continuous alarming pattern is applied for the front and rear alarming.
Priority in order of front alarming/rear alarming/parking alarming/failure alarming
1st priority : Beeping sound
The 1st : Failure alarming
The 2nd: Parking alarming
2nd priority : Alarming sound depending on the distance
High level alarming sound has the priority out of the front and rear alarming
Rear alarming has the priority when the front and rear alarms are same level.
Only one state is transmitted out of the beeping sound, front alarming and rear alarming according to the priority and the concurrent transmitting is not made.
