[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of data calibration technology, and in particular to a remote calibration indicator device and a remote calibration control method. Background Technology

[0002] In scenarios involving remote vehicle calibration, such as remote vehicle calibration, the host computer software wirelessly connects to a network-connected terminal via a server.

[0003] However, due to the long distance, the calibration status is often not immediately known. In case of an emergency on site, it is impossible to identify whether the problem may be caused by improper remote calibration. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this disclosure is to provide a remote calibration indication device and a remote calibration control method, which can specifically solve the existing problems.

Detailed Implementation

[0013] The present disclosure will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the invention are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0014] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this disclosure can be combined with each other. This disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0015] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the remote calibration indication device and its connection according to this disclosure is shown. In an embodiment of this disclosure, the device is connected to a remote calibration terminal, and the device includes: An emergency switch, which has an open / closed state, is used to indicate whether the circuit of the device is normal.

[0016] The calibration indicator light is used to display the data calibration status, which indicates whether the calibration parameters of the remote calibration meet the preset calibration conditions.

[0017] The detection port is used to detect the open / closed state of the emergency switch.

[0018] The calibration control port is used to control the calibration indicator light to illuminate in response to the calibration process meeting the preset calibration conditions.

[0019] The calibration status here can be various, such as indicating the preset calibration progress, whether the calibration process is complete, or whether the calibration process is going smoothly. The calibration parameters for remote calibration can be engine parameters or other vehicle parameters.

[0020] Emergency switches can be controlled by personnel or machinery. In the event of an emergency or abnormal situation on site, the emergency switch can be operated to the second open / closed state. Here, "on site" refers to the operating location of the specified object. When the specified object is a car or engine, the personnel on site can be the driver.

[0021] This embodiment of the disclosure can automatically and accurately display the calibration status through calibration indicator lights, enabling on-site support personnel to observe the data calibration status during remote calibration. In case of an emergency with the calibrated object, it can quickly identify whether the problem is caused by improper remote calibration. Furthermore, an emergency switch can accurately indicate whether the calibration device's wiring is normal, allowing support personnel to quickly identify the calibration status and take appropriate measures.

[0022] In some optional implementations of any embodiment of this disclosure, the device further includes: a switch indicator light for indicating the open / closed state of the emergency switch, the switch indicator light being connected in series with the emergency switch.

[0023] Among these optional implementations, there are switch indicator lights that indicate the status of the circuit. The emergency switch is a normally closed switch, and the circuit is connected in series with the switch indicator lights, which can display the status of the emergency switch and facilitate checking whether the circuit is working properly.

[0024] These implementation methods use indicator lights to accurately and intuitively indicate the open / closed status of the emergency switch.

[0025] Figure 2 A remote calibration indication method according to an embodiment of this disclosure is shown. For example... Figure 2 As shown, this method is applied to the remote calibration terminal. The method employs a remote calibration indication device from any of the above implementations. Specifically, the remote calibration indication method includes: Step S201: Detect the current open / closed state of the emergency switch through the detection port; Step S202: If the current opening / closing state is the first opening / closing state, then enable remote calibration. Step S203: In response to the calibration process meeting preset conditions, the calibration indicator light is turned on via the calibration control port; In step S204, in response to the detection that the open / closed state of the emergency switch has changed to the second open / closed state through the detection port, the control calibration parameters are switched back to their original values.

[0026] The original values ​​refer to the parameters used before this remote calibration. If the remote calibration terminal detects that the switch is closed, it enables the remote calibration function; otherwise, it disables the remote calibration function. Detection through the aforementioned detection port allows for continuous monitoring during the calibration phase.

[0027] In some cases, the first open / closed state is closed, and the second open / closed state is open.

[0028] These implementation methods can enable remote calibration by controlling the on / off state of the emergency switch, and can also quickly restore parameters to ensure the safety of the calibration process.

[0029] In some optional implementations of any embodiment of this disclosure, the method further includes: detecting whether the calibration parameters have been modified when remote calibration is enabled; the preset condition includes: if the detection result is that the parameter has been modified, then determining that the preset condition is met.

[0030] Among these optional implementations, calibration indicator lights can be used to indicate whether the calibration parameters have been modified, thus visually displaying the modifications made during calibration.

[0031] In some optional implementations of any embodiment of this disclosure, the method further includes: after detecting the current open / closed state of the emergency switch, if the current open / closed state is detected to be a second open / closed state, then reporting the current open / closed state; or if the line abnormality is detected, then reporting the current open / closed state.

[0032] Among these optional implementations, the second open / closed state can be used as a calibrated abnormal state and can be reported. It can also be reported when an actual line abnormality is detected, thus helping to adjust the abnormal state in a timely manner.

[0033] In some optional implementations of any embodiment of this disclosure, the device further includes: a switch indicator light for indicating the open / closed state of the emergency switch, the switch indicator light being connected in series with the emergency switch; the method further includes: if the current open / closed state is the second open / closed state, then the switch indicator light is illuminated.

[0034] Among these optional implementations, a second open / closed state can be used to indicate an emergency state and illuminate the switch indicator light, thereby indicating whether an emergency state has been entered and whether calibration needs to be terminated.

[0035] In some optional implementations of any embodiment of this disclosure, the remote calibration terminal includes a voltage output port; the line between the switch indicator and the calibration indicator is connected to the voltage output port of the remote calibration terminal.

[0036] Among these alternative implementations, a voltage output port can be set on the remote calibration terminal to add a detectable position to the line, and a port setting can be made between two indicator lights, where detection can simultaneously reflect the status indicated by both lights.

[0037] like Figure 3a As shown in the figure, the remote calibration indicator device and the connection between the device and the remote calibration terminal are illustrated. The wiring between the switch indicator light and the emergency switch is connected to the detection port.
