[0018] In order to at least partially solve the above-mentioned problems and one or more of other potential problems, an embodiment of the present disclosure proposes a method for adapting a vehicle central control software interface, including: setting a reserved diagnostic address in the vehicle central control system of the target vehicle; using a vehicle electrical inspection system to perform electrical performance testing on the target vehicle, and outputting detection information, the detection information including configuration information; the vehicle central control system receives the detection information through the vehicle electrical inspection system, and stores the configuration information to the reserved diagnostic address; the vehicle central control system determines the configuration device of the target vehicle according to the configuration information in the reserved diagnostic address, and outputs a corresponding preset interface based on the configuration device.

[0019] Specifically, the reserved diagnostic address of the vehicle computer central control system is used to save information on whether the vehicle equipment related to the vehicle computer is configured. The reserved diagnostic address includes fields corresponding to all configurations of the target vehicle corresponding to the model. The target vehicle includes multiple models, and each model has a different configuration, that is, it is equipped with different types of equipment. The reserved diagnostic address has corresponding fields for the configurations of multiple models. For example, the configured equipment is an air conditioner, and the air conditioner models include dual-zone air conditioners and single-zone air conditioners. Different models will selectively equip dual-zone air conditioners or single-zone air conditioners. The reserved diagnostic address includes dual-zone air conditioner fields and single-zone air conditioner fields.

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, after the vehicle electrical inspection system completes the inspection of the target vehicle, it outputs the inspection information. The inspection information includes the result information of the configuration equipment of the target vehicle. The vehicle computer central control system obtains the configuration information of the target vehicle through the inspection information through the result information in the inspection information. That is, when a certain configuration equipment is included in the inspection information, the corresponding field of the configuration equipment at the reserved diagnostic address is filled with 1. When a certain configuration equipment is not included in the inspection information, the corresponding field of the configuration equipment at the reserved diagnostic address is filled with 1. The fields corresponding to multiple configuration equipment in the reserved diagnostic address are combined to form the configuration information of the target vehicle. In some embodiments, the vehicle electrical inspection system writes the corresponding configuration information into the vehicle computer central control system through the vehicle configuration code of the target vehicle.

[0021] The vehicle computer central control system includes multiple preset interfaces, each of which corresponds to a configuration device, and the preset interface is the software interface (UI) corresponding to the configuration device. The vehicle computer central control system obtains the configuration device of the target vehicle through the configuration information in the reserved diagnostic address, and outputs the preset interface corresponding to the configuration device.

[0022] In some embodiments, the configuration information includes dual-zone air conditioning information, single-zone air conditioning information, adaptive cruise information, lane keeping information, digital tire pressure information, and indirect tire pressure information.

[0027] Specifically, each of the multiple application units corresponds to a configuration device item. For example, the vehicle computer central control unit includes an air conditioning application unit, and the air conditioning application unit includes a dual-zone air conditioning preset interface and a single-zone air conditioning preset interface. The air conditioning application unit outputs the corresponding preset interface based on the received configuration information, that is, when the dual-zone air conditioning field in the configuration information is 1, the dual-zone air conditioning preset interface is output, otherwise the dual-zone air conditioning preset interface is not output. When the single-zone air conditioning field in the configuration information is 1, the single-zone air conditioning preset interface is output, otherwise the single-zone air conditioning preset interface is not output. The vehicle computer central control unit includes an adaptive cruise application unit, and when the adaptive cruise field in the configuration information is 1, the adaptive cruise preset interface is output, otherwise the adaptive cruise preset interface is not output. The vehicle computer central control unit includes a lane keeping application unit, and when the lane keeping field in the configuration information is 1, the lane keeping preset interface is output, otherwise the lane keeping preset interface is not output. The vehicle computer central control unit includes a digital tire pressure application unit, and when the digital tire pressure field in the configuration information is 1, the digital tire pressure preset interface is output, otherwise the digital tire pressure preset interface is not output. The vehicle computer central control unit includes an indirect tire pressure application unit. When the indirect tire pressure field in the configuration information is 1, the indirect tire pressure preset interface is output, otherwise the indirect tire pressure preset interface is not output.

[0028] In some embodiments, the application unit connects to the vehicle diagnostic unit in response to a power-on instruction to receive configuration information.

[0029] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, each application unit is connected to the vehicle diagnostic unit through the communication unit of the vehicle central control system, and receives configuration information through the vehicle diagnostic unit. Each application unit reconnects to the vehicle diagnostic unit in response to the power-on command and receives configuration information to update the configuration information. For example, when the target vehicle completes the configuration device update, the single-zone air conditioner is replaced with a dual-zone air conditioner, then the field corresponding to the dual-zone air conditioner in the configuration information changes from 0 to 1, and the field corresponding to the single-zone air conditioner changes from 1 to 0, and the air conditioner application unit outputs the dual-zone air conditioner preset interface based on the updated configuration information.

[0030] On the other hand, a vehicle central control system is provided, including: a vehicle diagnostic unit and an application unit, the vehicle diagnostic unit includes a reserved diagnostic address, the vehicle diagnostic unit receives configuration information by connecting to a vehicle electrical inspection system, and stores the configuration information to the reserved diagnostic address; the application unit includes multiple preset interfaces, the application unit receives configuration information through the vehicle diagnostic unit, and outputs corresponding preset interfaces based on the configuration information.

[0031] Specifically, the vehicle central control system includes a vehicle diagnostic unit and multiple application units. The vehicle diagnostic unit receives the configuration information of the vehicle through the vehicle electrical inspection system and stores the configuration information in a reserved position. Each of the multiple application units includes at least one preset screen. In some embodiments, the configuration equipment includes dual-zone air conditioning, single-zone air conditioning, adaptive cruise, lane keeping, digital tire pressure, and indirect tire pressure.
