Frequency
Full qualified VSS Path: Vehicle.Body.Windshield.Rear.Wiping.System.Frequency
Description: Wiping frequency/speed, measured in cycles per minute. The signal concerns the actual speed of the wiper blades when moving. Intervals/pauses are excluded, i.e. the value corresponds to the number of cycles that would be completed in 1 minute if wiping permanently over default range.
Comment: Examples - 0 = Wipers stopped, 80 = Wipers doing 80 cycles per minute (in WIPE mode).

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
