Signal Information
The vehicle signal Vehicle is a Branch.
UUID
Each vehicle signal is identified by a Universally Unique Identifier (UUID)
The UUID for Vehicle is ccc825f94139544dbb5f4bfd033bece6
Children
This vehicle signal is a branch or structure and thus has sub-pages:
- Vehicle.ADAS (All Advanced Driver Assist Systems data.)
- Vehicle.Acceleration (Spatial acceleration. Axis definitions according to ISO 8855.)
- Vehicle.AngularVelocity (Spatial rotation. Axis definitions according to ISO 8855.)
- Vehicle.AverageSpeed (Average speed for the current trip.)
- Vehicle.Body (All body components.)
- Vehicle.Cabin (All in-cabin components, including doors.)
- Vehicle.CargoVolume (The available volume for cargo or luggage. For automobiles, this is usually the trunk volume.)
- Vehicle.Chassis (All data concerning steering, suspension, wheels, and brakes.)
- Vehicle.Connectivity (Connectivity data.)
- Vehicle.CurbWeight (Vehicle curb weight, including all liquids and full tank of fuel, but no cargo or passengers.)
- Vehicle.CurrentLocation (The current latitude and longitude of the vehicle.)
- Vehicle.CurrentOverallWeight (Current overall Vehicle weight. Including passengers, cargo and other load inside the car.)
- Vehicle.Driver (Driver data.)
- Vehicle.EmissionsCO2 (The CO2 emissions.)
- Vehicle.Exterior (Information about exterior measured by vehicle.)
- Vehicle.GrossWeight (Curb weight of vehicle, including all liquids and full tank of fuel and full load of cargo and passengers.)
- Vehicle.Height (Overall vehicle height.)
- Vehicle.IsBrokenDown (Vehicle breakdown or any similar event causing vehicle to stop on the road, that might pose a risk to other road users. True = Vehicle broken down on the road, due to e.g. engine problems, flat tire, out of gas, brake problems. False = Vehicle not broken down.)
- Vehicle.IsMoving (Indicates whether the vehicle is stationary or moving.)
- Vehicle.Length (Overall vehicle length.)
- Vehicle.LowVoltageBattery (Signals related to low voltage battery.)
- Vehicle.LowVoltageSystemState (State of the supply voltage of the control units (usually 12V).)
- Vehicle.MaxTowBallWeight (Maximum vertical weight on the tow ball of a trailer.)
- Vehicle.MaxTowWeight (Maximum weight of trailer.)
- Vehicle.OBD (OBD data.)
- Vehicle.PowerOptimizeLevel (Power optimization level for this branch/subsystem. A higher number indicates more aggressive power optimization. Level 0 indicates that all functionality is enabled, no power optimization enabled. Level 10 indicates most aggressive power optimization mode, only essential functionality enabled.)
- Vehicle.Powertrain (Powertrain data for battery management, etc.)
- Vehicle.RoofLoad (The permitted total weight of cargo and installations (e.g. a roof rack) on top of the vehicle.)
- Vehicle.Service (Service data.)
- Vehicle.Speed (Vehicle speed.)
- Vehicle.StartTime (Start time of current or latest trip, formatted according to ISO 8601 with UTC time zone.)
- Vehicle.Trailer (Trailer signals.)
- Vehicle.TraveledDistance (Odometer reading, total distance traveled during the lifetime of the vehicle.)
- Vehicle.TraveledDistanceSinceStart (Distance traveled since start of current trip.)
- Vehicle.TravelledDistance (Odometer reading, total distance traveled during the lifetime of the vehicle.)
- Vehicle.TripDuration (Duration of latest trip.)
- Vehicle.TripMeterReading (Trip meter reading.)
- Vehicle.VehicleIdentification (Attributes that identify a vehicle.)
- Vehicle.VersionVSS (Supported Version of VSS.)
- Vehicle.Width (Overall vehicle width.)
