  • Patent number: 11634010
    Abstract: The commissioning of an air conditioning system requires a series of manual steps, which leads to inefficient commissioning. A method is therefore provided for commissioning an air conditioning system of a vehicle, including the following: a) Reading in a target data record indicating a target vehicle state; b) Recording an actual data record indicating an actual vehicle state by measuring at least one signal and/or communicating with at least one vehicle component; c) Comparing the actual vehicle state with a target vehicle state; d) Activating at least one function of the air conditioning system only if the actual vehicle state corresponds to the target vehicle state.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10965074
    Abstract: A system for the read-out of vehicle data via a diagnostic port, specifically an OBD plug connection of a vehicle, including a connector unit for a diagnostic port of a vehicle, and a gateway apparatus for communication with an air-conditioning installation of the vehicle, specifically a parking heater, wherein the connector unit, specifically the OBD plug connection, includes a connector body, having a plug-in side with first contacts for connection with the diagnostic port, and a connection side with second contacts, specifically for connection with a diagnostic device, and at least one branch feeder, wherein the branch feeder is brought out of the connector body from at least one of the first contacts, and is communicatively connected to the gateway apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20200164716
    Abstract: A method for controlling at least one air-conditioning device of a vehicle includes the steps of: querying first status data from a first bus, preferably an air-conditioning bus, which is connected to the at least one air-conditioning device, via a radio interface; querying second status data from a second bus, in particular a vehicle, which is connected to at least one actuator and/or sensor, via the radio interface; displaying the first and second status data on a display; receiving at least one user input; processing the user input; creating a control command on the basis of the user input and using at least one data element of the first and/or second status data; transmitting the control command to the air-conditioning device via the radio interface.
