Kia EV6: Description and Operation

Description

System Overview

The System offers the following features:

– Changing the state of IG ON and power by using the start button.

– Controlling external relays (ACC / IG1 / IG2) terminal switching and STARTER, without use of mechanical IG switch.

– Indicating the vehicle status on display by displaying messages.

– Immobilizer function by LF transponder communication between between fob and fob holder.

– Interface with Low Speed CAN vehicle communication network.

– Interface with LIN vehicle communication network depending on platform.

System Main Function

• Switching of ACC / IG1 / IG2 terminals.

• Control of the relay turning on the vehicle, based on communication with vehicle control unit (VCU).

• Management of the Immobilizer function.

• Management of Button Start System warning function.

Wireless Communications

The electric signal is used to exchange information between vehicle and FOB key. For now, button start is applied with smart key FOB key together.Smart key function is explained separately so refer to the corresponding system contents.

Integrated Body Control Unit (IBU)

The IBU manages all functions related to:

– Start/Stop Button (SSB) control

– Immobilizer communication (with VCU for releasing immobilizer)

– Authentication server (Validity of Transponder and in case of Smart Key option Passive Fob authentication)

– System consistency monitoring

– System diagnosis

– Control of display message / warning buzzer

Limp Home Mode

– In case of no input signal for the brake, the ACC mode shall move to “START” by pressing SSB for more than 10 seconds.

– In case of problems with communication between VCU and CAN (the VCU state), the “START” state moved to the “EV READY” based on rpm input.

– In case that one out of two SSB input lines is disconnected, the electric power cycling is available when SSB is pressed twice within 10 seconds.The buzzer rings when the button is pressed in the first time.The electric power cycling is available and buzzer stops when the button is pressed twice within 10 seconds.
