摘要： A vehicle (100), or control system (200) thereof includes a winch (110) and control circuitry (231). The winch includes a winch motor (251) and is configured to extend and retract a cable. The control circuitry is coupled to the winch and a battery system (280). The control circuitry is configured to control operation of the vehicle, receive an indication to initiate a winch control mode (302), determine status information for the vehicle (304), and activate one or more selectors of an input interface (306) for receiving input to control the winch based on the status information. The selectors can include buttons of a keyfob (151) associated with the vehicle. The status information can include a gear selection of the vehicle, a security status of the vehicle, a capacity status of the battery system, authorization information, or other information. The control circuitry, while controlling the winch, receives commands for controlling the winch and monitors the status information.
