Combination Switch Reading Function: Description

BCM reads the status of the combination switch at 10 ms interval normally.

NOTE: BCM reads the status of the combination switch at 60 ms interval when BCM is controlled at low power consumption control mode.

It operates the transistor on OUTPUT side in the following order: OUTPUT 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5, and outputs voltage waveform.
The voltage waveform of OUTPUT corresponding to the formed circuit is input into the interface on INPUT side if any (1 or more) switches are ON.
It reads this change of the voltage as the status signal of the combination switch.
