  • Patent number: 8963364
    Abstract: A voltage detector 22 has an input port IN connectable to a steering remote control 6 of a voltage dividing type adapted to output one of output voltages different from each other for each of key switches to be pressed by a user, and detects through the input port IN an output voltage output from the steering remote control 6. A pull-up resistor 21a is connected in series between the input port IN and a power supply Vdd supplying a voltage to the steering remote control 6, and has a variable resistance. A controller 23 controls the pull-up resistor 21a to have sequentially changed resistances in a course of pressing the key switches. A processor 3 operates on sets of output voltages given respectively for the resistances in the course of pressing the key switches, to select a resistance of the pull-up resistor.
