An integral control panel contains push switches and rotary switches for system control inputs. light emitting diode (LED) in the switches and switch surrounds illuminate to indicate the current settings of the system. Switch symbols are illuminated when the side lamps or headlamps are on.
The automatic temperature control (ATC) module processes inputs from the control panel switches, system sensors and the medium speed controller area network (CAN) bus, then outputs the appropriate control signals to the air conditioning (A/C) system and the heating and ventilation system. In addition to controlling the air conditioning (A/C) system and the heating and ventilation system, the automatic temperature control (ATC) module also controls the following:
