Intensity
Full qualified VSS Path: Vehicle.Body.Windshield.Front.Wiping.Intensity
Description: Relative intensity/sensitivity for interval and rain sensor mode as requested by user/driver. Has no significance if Windshield.Wiping.Mode is OFF/SLOW/MEDIUM/FAST 0 - wipers inactive. 1 - minimum intensity (lowest frequency/sensitivity, longest interval). 2/3/4/… - higher intensity (higher frequency/sensitivity, shorter interval). Maximum value supported is vehicle specific.

About VSS

The Vehicle Signal Specification (VSS) is an initiative by COVESA to define a syntax and a catalog for vehicle signals. The source code and releases can be found in the VSS github repository.

Supported datatypes

The following is a list of VSS supported built-in datatypes:

Name Type Min Max
