Hyundai Kona: Parking Distance Warning-Foward/Revers / Description and operation
PDW-R (Parking Distance Warning- Revers) is an electronic driving aid that
warns the driver to be cautious while parking or driving at low speed. The
sensor uses ultrasonic waves to detect objects within proximity of the vehicle.
PDW-R consists of four PDW-F sensors which are detecting the obstacles and
transmit the result separated into three warning levels, the first, second
and third to BCM by Lin communication. BCM decides the alarm level by the
transmitted communication message from the slave sensors, and then operates
the buzzer or transmits the data for display.
System Operation Specification
1. |
INIT mode
(1) |
System initializing time is 500ms after IGN1+ R Gear.
|
(2) |
PDW-R recognizes LID and sets the sensor ID up during initialization.
|
(3) |
PDW-R activates each sensor and then executes the diagnosis
after finishing initialization of BCM
|
(4) |
If the diagnosis is completed and sensor does not send an
error message, “PDW-R Startling Buzzer” is normally
worked.
|
(5) |
If failure is received from any sensors, R-PAS Starting
Buzzer” does not work but the failure alarm is operated
for a moment.
If you have display option, warning sign is also shown on
it.
|
(6) |
Buzzer for sensor failure is operated once, but the sensor
failure state is shown in display until the failure is repaired.
|
|
2. |
NORMAL Mode
(1) |
Lin communication starts and keeps the routine after IGN1
ON+R gear
|
(2) |
BCM sends a message once to each sensor for operating request
to check the initial status of the system and four sensors
response all at once. At this time, if there is no problem,
the alarm starts after 500ms of R gear shifting at 300ms
intervals.
|
(3) |
After initialization, normal mode starts 100ms later after
finishing alarm output.
|
(4) |
Alarm for obstacles is divided into 3 levels.
The first and second are intermittent sound, and the third
alarms continuously
|
(5) |
The efficient vehicle speed of PDW-R operation is below
10Km/h.
|
(6) |
Refer to ‘Digital PDW Project LIN communication’ for
the more detailed communication specification.

Distance range detected objects (Measured directly in front of sensor)
61cm(24.0in) - 120cm(47.2in) : ± 15cm(5.9in)
31cm(12.2in) - 60cm(23.6in): ± 15cm(5.9in)
Less than 30cm(11.8in) : ± 10cm(3.9in)

Horizontal Sensing Area
Vertical Sensing Area
Distance Measurement
Transmission and Reception are executed with one sensor
(RL, RCL, RCR, RR each sensor execution)
(RCL → RL, RCL → RCR, RCR → RCL, RCR → RR Execution in order)
With two or three sensors, one of them sends the transmission and the others
get the reception.
Direct and Indirect Measurement
at once |
With two or three sensors, the one sensor performs both transmission and
reception, and the others perform only reception.
PDW-R alarm system
When the PDW-R sensor detects the object, warning is operated by audible
alarm device as like buzzer. PDW-R sensor sends data to BCM via LIN communication
and BCM implements audible warning for each PDW-R SENSOR by priority. And
it performs a role of gateway only when it sends visible alarm device such
as Cluster.

Sensor buzzer/display information processing method of BCM In case
of RL/RR sensor information, the BCM handles each sensor information
directly about Display and buzzer output function. Buzzer output
of CL/CR sensor, BCM handles center combination information by priority
both sensor.
|
System Operation Spec
When the system has the power (after IGN ON and R gear), MICOM checks every
sensor channel. In case it finds any error, it gives off the buzzer for
300ms after 500ms.If an error is found even in a sensor, it gives off the
buzzer corresponding to the faulty sensor, instead of initial starting alarm.
The operation to enter the normal mode is as follows.
With the R gear put in the car, the system is operated as follows.
With the R gear released, the system is operated as follows.
※ The acceptable error range on waveform is ±10%.
Alarm Output Specification Classified by Distance Between Sensors
Condition logic according to priority of alarm level is as below. (the identical
sensor)
*α value definition
1. |
low priority sensor off : α = 0ms
|
2. |
low priority sensor is 1st warning level : α < 340ms
|
3. |
low priority sensor is 2nd warning level : α < 170ms
|
*β value definition
4. |
low priority sensor is 1st warning level : β = 1700ms
|
5. |
low priority sensor is 2nd warning level : β = 1700ms
|
6. |
low priority sensor is 3rd warning level : β = 700ms
|
Alarm control by sensing distance is as follows.
7. |
First warning area (61cm-120cm)
|
8. |
Second warning area (31cm-80cm)
|
9. |
Third warning area (less than 30cm)
|

Alarm fo ultrasonic sensor
If one or more front/rear paking assistance sensor have any fault,
alarm will sound and warning message will be displayed (cluster).

Alarm sound
|
2) |
Alarm message
Displayed image and warning message may vary depending
on the vehicle model.

Visible Alarm Indicator Specification
When the gear shifts to R, the cluster controls the indicator as the following
picture.
When the system detects an object, it immediately turns on the indicator.
If an object disappears while the PDW-R detecting operation, the indicator
remains on for 2 sec. before being turned off.
(But when it turns third step alarm to No alarm status, it lights third
step alarm for two second and turns out.)
– |
It shows only the detecting position of obstacles.
|
– |
In third level alarm, indicator flickers at intervals of a second.
|
– |
In normal alarm mode, integrated display of RCR/RCL
|
Communication Standard
This section defines the communication between PDW-R and BCM.
PDW-R send a detecting result of object and sensor diagnosis result to BCM
according to this document, and BCM takes a role to issue an alarm.
Indicator shows the transmitted position and alarm data, in the alarm mode,
it finds the nearest DATA and alarms the nearest DATA first.
(Ex. In case, RL isthe first-step alarm and RR is the third step, RR alarm
has priority.)
