System Description
 
 
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
The conventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode allows driving at a speed between 30 and 144 km/h (20 and 90 MPH) without keeping own foot on the accelerator pedal.
noteUnlike the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode of the distance from the vehicle ahead is not performed. The MI-PILOT Assist system warning and brake control are not performed.
 
 
OPERATION DESCRIPTION
  • When the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is OFF, pressing and holding the MI-PILOT Assist switch for 1.5 seconds or more illuminates the speed control indicator and sets the control to the set wait condition.
    noteWhen switching to vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, first turn the system OFF, and then press the MI-PILOT Assist switch for less than 1.5 seconds to set the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode to the set wait condition.
  • The system compares the current vehicle speed and the set vehicle speed, sends commands via CAN communication to the ECM, and controls the torque to bring the current speed closer to the set speed.
  • When the system is in the set wait condition and the vehicle speed is between approximately 30 and 144 km/h (20 and 90 MPH), the vehicle speed at the time when the SET- switch is pressed is saved as the set vehicle speed, and control is started.
  • ADAS control unit 2 performs the control as per the following:
    Constant speedComparing the set vehicle speed with the current vehicle speed, transmits the command to ECM via CAN communication to reach the set vehicle speed, and controls electronic throttle control actuator.
