Information and Message Displays
The instrument cluster is an electronic device which receives digital or analog signals via hardwired or bus systems for instrumentation operation.
Message Center
Message Center
The message center is an Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) located in a central position at the bottom of the instrument cluster. The LCD has a viewable
area of 71 mm X 36 mm with a pixel size of 0.54 mm X 0.54 mm. When active, the message center is illuminated as follows:
^
At ignition on
^
At ignition off when all current messages are being displayed to the driver
^
At ignition off for a period of 20 seconds after the last message is displayed, e.g. 'KEY IN' or 'LIGHTS ON' warnings. At ignition off, each current
message is displayed in turn for 3 seconds
When the ignition is switched on and the lights are off, the message center will illuminate at full, normal brightness. If the lights are switched on, the
intensity of illumination is reduced to a level determined by the PWM dimmer control located on the lighting control switch.
The majority of messages are generated by the vehicle subsystem modules on receipt of CAN bus message signals. The instrument cluster identifies the
signals and displays the appropriate message in the message center.
Most messages are accompanied by a chime or series of chimes which is requested by the module generating the message. The chime is emitted by a
sounder located within the instrument cluster.
