Abstract: A gateway device for controlling an air-conditioning device of a vehicle, a vehicle having such a gateway device and a method for starting up an air-conditioning device in a vehicle. The gateway device includes at least one plug-in contact for connecting the gateway device to an air-conditioning device and/or to a vehicle component, a reception unit for receiving configuration data for selecting a plug configuration of the gateway device, a configuration circuit associated with the plug-in contact, that is designed to take configuration data as a basis for changing between at least one first switching state of the plug-in contact, in which the plug-in contact is designed to perform a first function, and at least one second switching state of the plug-in contact, in which the plug-in contact is designed to perform a second function.

Abstract: The cabling for a subsequent installation of an auxiliary heating system in a vehicle is costly.Therefore, an air conditioning system for a vehicle is specified including: an air conditioning bus; an air conditioning device, in particular a heater; an operator control element for setting at least one target parameter, in particular a setpoint temperature value, of the air conditioning device; a gateway device which is connected at least to the air conditioning device via the air conditioning bus. The gateway device is designed to communicate as a master on the air conditioning bus and comprises a control device for controlling the air conditioning device.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for transmitting at least one control command to at least one actuator, comprising the following steps: a) monitoring a communication bus; b) detecting an event, for example bus inactivity, that lasts longer than a predefined time interval; c) dividing the communication bus into a first bus segment and a second bus segment, wherein the actuator is part of the second bus segment; d) transmitting the at least one control command to the at least one actuator on the second bus segment.

Abstract: The commissioning of an air conditioning system requires a series of manual steps, which leads to inefficient commissioning. A method is therefore provided for commissioning an air conditioning system of a vehicle, including the following: a) Reading in a target data record indicating a target vehicle state; b) Recording an actual data record indicating an actual vehicle state by measuring at least one signal and/or communicating with at least one vehicle component; c) Comparing the actual vehicle state with a target vehicle state; d) Activating at least one function of the air conditioning system only if the actual vehicle state corresponds to the target vehicle state.
