In step S601, when it is determined that the volume is set to 1, the volume is set to a fixed volume (step S602), and it is determined whether or not the low sound quality flag 527 is set to 1 (step S603). If it is determined in step S603 that it is set to 1, the sound quality is set to low sound quality (step S604), and the process ends. If it is determined in step S601 that the volume fixing flag 526 is set to 0, the process of step S603 is performed without setting the volume to a fixed volume. Further, if it is determined in step S603 that the volume fixing flag 526 is set to 0, the processing is terminated without setting the sound quality to low sound quality.

  Then, in the TV output process, when the information output control unit 493 recognizes a setting input for turning on the TV unit 442 by the TV output control unit 493E as shown in FIG. 12 (step S701), as shown in FIG. A voice output form setting process is performed (step S702). After performing the sound output form setting processing in step S702, the image form setting means 493C determines whether or not the low image quality flag 528 is set to 1 (step S703). If it is determined in step S703 that it is set to 1, the image quality is set to low image quality (step S704), and it is determined whether or not the TV automatic channel selection flag 523 is set to 1 (step S705). ). If it is determined in step S703 that the low image quality flag 528 is set to 0, the process of step S705 is performed without setting the image quality to low image quality.

  If it is determined in step S705 that it is set to 1, an emergency television broadcast station is selected (step S706). Then, the television output control means 493E outputs the selected television broadcast sound from the sound output unit 200 in the output form appropriately set by the sound form setting means 493B and displays the image appropriately set by the image form setting means 493C. Processing to display on the display unit 300 in the form is performed (step S707). Thereafter, the television output control means 493E determines whether or not a setting input for turning off the television unit 442 has been recognized (step S708). If it is determined in step S708 that it has been turned off, the process ends. On the other hand, if it is determined in step S708 that it is not recognized that it is turned off, the process returns to step S707.

  If it is determined in step S705 that the automatic TV channel selection flag 523 is set to 0, it is determined whether or not the emergency TV broadcasting station is selected based on the TV channel setting information 524. Judgment is made (step S709). If it is determined in this step S709 that the channel selection is set, the selected TV broadcast station is selected (step S710), and the process of step S707 is performed. On the other hand, if it is determined in step S709 that the channel selection is not set, for example, a television broadcast station is selected based on the input operation of the input unit 450, and the process of step S707 is performed.

  Further, in the disk output process, when the information output control means 493 recognizes a setting input for turning on the disk unit 443 by the disk output control means 493F as shown in FIG. 13 (step S801), as shown in FIG. A voice output mode setting process is performed (step S802). After performing the audio output mode setting processing in step S802, it is determined whether or not the low image quality flag 528 is set to 1 (step S803). If it is determined in this step S803 that it is set to 1, the image quality is set to low image quality (step S804), and it is determined whether or not the playback restriction flag 525 is set to 1 (step S805). If it is determined in step S803 that the low image quality flag 528 is set to 0, the process of step S805 is performed without setting the low image quality. If it is determined in this step S805 that it is set to 1, the disc output control means 493F sets the disc unit 443 to a state in which only playback processing can be performed (step S806). Thereafter, when the disc output control means 493F recognizes the setting input for reproducing the disc content, the audio of the disc content is output in the output form appropriately set by the audio form setting means 493B, and the image is set as the image form setting. A process of displaying in a display form appropriately set by the means 493C is performed (step S807). Thereafter, the disk output control means 493F determines whether or not a setting input for turning off the disk unit 443 has been recognized (step S808). If it is determined in step S808 that it has been turned off, the process ends. On the other hand, if it is determined in step S808 that it has not been recognized to turn off, the process returns to step S807.

  If it is determined in step S805 that the playback restriction flag 525 is set to 0, the disk output control unit 493F sets the disk unit 443 to a state where all processes can be performed (step S809). When the disc output control means 493F recognizes a setting input such as reproducing the disc content or searching for a predetermined scene, the disc output control means 493F performs the process of step S807 on the disc content corresponding to the setting input.

[Function and effect of in-vehicle AV system]
As described above, in the above embodiment, the processing unit 490 of the in-vehicle AV apparatus 400 has the normal power supply unit E1 connected to the normal power supply connection unit 410 and the emergency power supply unit E2 connected to the emergency power supply connection unit 420. Is detected, the radio unit 441, the television unit 442, and the disc unit 443 are controlled to perform all processing by the power supplied from the normal power supply unit E1. Further, when the processing unit 490 detects that the emergency power supply unit E2 is connected to the emergency power supply connection unit 420, for example, the voice form setting unit 493B uses the power supplied from the emergency power supply unit E2. Control is performed so that the sound of radio broadcast, television broadcast, or disc content is fixed to low sound quality and output. That is, the processing unit 490 controls each unit 441, 442, 443 and the like so that only predetermined processing can be performed by the power supplied from the emergency power supply unit E2. For this reason, the processing unit 490 uses the power from the emergency power supply unit E2 in the event of an emergency such as when there is a possibility that output processing of various information may not be performed due to a decrease in the power supplied from the normal power supply unit E1. No processing other than the predetermined processing is performed at 441, 442, 443 and the like. Therefore, the in-vehicle AV apparatus 400 has the emergency power supply means E2 in comparison with the configuration in which the power from the emergency power supply means E2 is controlled so that all the processes can be performed by the units 441, 442, 443, and the like. Power consumption can be reduced and each unit 441, 442, 443 can be operated for a longer time. In addition, even when the power of the normal power supply means E1 is lost, the respective units 441, 442, and 443 can be operated without using a secondary battery, so that the in-vehicle AV device 400 can be increased in size and cost. There is no invitation. In addition, waste of resources can be eliminated. Therefore, the in-vehicle AV device 400 can appropriately control the execution state of the processing in each unit 441, 442, 443, and the like.

  Then, when the processing unit 490 detects that the emergency power supply unit E2 is connected, the processing unit 490 controls all or one of the units 441, 442, and 443 to be incapable of performing all the processing. Therefore, the processing unit 490 does not cause all the processing to be performed by one or two of the units 441, 442, 443 by the power from the emergency power supply unit E2. Therefore, the in-vehicle AV apparatus 400 has an emergency power supply unit compared to a configuration in which only predetermined processing can be performed in all the units 441, 442, and 443 by the power from the emergency power supply unit E2. The power consumption of E2 can be reduced, and each unit 441, 442, 443 can be operated for a longer time.

  In addition, the processing unit 490 controls the power supply switching unit 430 so that the emergency power supply unit E2 is not connected to one or two of the units 441, 442, 443, so that the units 441, 442 are connected. , 443, one or two of them can be made unexecutable. Therefore, the processing unit 490 has a simple configuration in which the power supply switching unit 430 only switches the connection state between the emergency power supply unit E2 and the units 441, 442, and 443, and the processing unit 490 includes the units 441, 442, and 443. One or two of them can make all processing impossible. Therefore, the in-vehicle AV apparatus 400 can easily control the execution state of the processing in each unit 441, 442, 443.

  In addition, the processing unit 490 causes each of the output control units 493D and 493E to cause the units 441 and 442 to select a radio broadcast station or a television broadcast station set by the user and receive only the broadcast of this broadcast station. . For this reason, the in-vehicle AV device 400 does not receive broadcasts other than the broadcast set by the user, and reduces the power consumption of the emergency power supply means E2 as compared with the configuration capable of receiving all broadcasts. Can be made. Therefore, each unit 441, 442 can be operated for a longer time. Further, the in-vehicle AV apparatus 400 can output radio broadcasts that suit the user's preferences without causing the user to perform channel selection settings of radio broadcast stations, for example, and heals the user even in an emergency. be able to.

  Each output control means 493D, 493E causes each unit 441, 442 to select, for example, an emergency radio broadcast station or an emergency television broadcast station that preferentially broadcasts information relating to disasters, etc., and only broadcasts from this broadcast station To receive. For this reason, the in-vehicle AV device 400 does not receive broadcasts other than those of emergency radio broadcast stations, for example, and the power consumption of the emergency power supply means E2 is reduced compared to a configuration capable of receiving all broadcasts. Can be reduced. Therefore, each unit 441, 442 can be operated for a longer time. Further, the in-vehicle AV apparatus 400 can allow a user to listen to a radio broadcast related to a disaster or the like without having to perform tuning setting of an emergency radio broadcast station, for example, and quickly without trouble of the user. Information about disasters can be provided.

  Also, the disc output control means 493F causes the disc unit 443 to perform only the disc content reproduction processing in a limited manner. For this reason, the in-vehicle AV apparatus 400 can reduce the power consumption of the emergency power supply means E2 and can output the disc content for a longer period of time, compared to a configuration in which a predetermined scene search process is performed in addition to the playback process.

  Furthermore, the audio form setting means 493B controls to fix the sound volume of radio broadcast, television broadcast, or disc content to a fixed volume. For this reason, the in-vehicle AV apparatus 400 does not output sound at a volume other than the fixed volume, and can further reduce the power consumption of the emergency power supply means E2 as compared with the configuration in which the volume can be adjusted. Etc. can be output for a longer time.

  And the audio | voice form setting means 493B performs control which fixes the sound quality of audio | voices, such as a radio broadcast, to low sound quality. For this reason, the in-vehicle AV device 400 does not output sound with a sound quality other than low sound quality, and the emergency power compared to a configuration in which the sound quality can be adjusted or a configuration in which, for example, a high sound output level is set to the highest level. The power consumption of the supply means E2 can be further reduced, and radio broadcasts can be output for a longer time.

  The image form setting unit 493C controls to fix the image quality of the image of the television broadcast or the disc content to a low image quality. For this reason, the in-vehicle AV apparatus 400 does not display an image with an image quality other than the low image quality, and the emergency power supply means E2 is compared with a configuration in which the image quality can be adjusted or a configuration in which the resolution is set to the highest level. Power consumption can be further reduced, and TV broadcasts can be output for a longer time.

  Furthermore, each of the units 493B to 493F recognizes the processing contents to be performed limitedly based on the operation setting information 520 stored in the nonvolatile memory 480. For this reason, the in-vehicle AV apparatus 400 can recognize the processing contents to be executed in a limited manner by a simple method by simply referring to the operation setting information 520, and can output a radio broadcast or the like more quickly.

  Further, the supply switching control unit 493A recognizes the units 441, 442, and 443 connected to the emergency power supply connection unit 420 based on the selected source information 510 stored in the nonvolatile memory 480. For this reason, the supply switching control means 493A can recognize the respective units 441, 442, 443 connected to the emergency power supply connection unit 420 by a simple method only by referring to the selected source information 510, and the emergency power supply connection unit 420, Each part 441,442,443 can be quickly connected. Therefore, the in-vehicle AV device 400 can output a radio broadcast or the like more quickly.

  Then, the operation information generation unit 492 generates emergency operation information 500 incorporating the selected source information 510 and the operation setting information 520 based on an input operation by the user, and stores it in the nonvolatile memory 480. Therefore, the in-vehicle AV device 400 can output radio broadcasts and the like in an output state that matches the user's preference. Therefore, the convenience of the in-vehicle AV device 400 can be improved.

  Further, emergency operation information 500 is stored in a nonvolatile memory 480 having a nonvolatile property. For this reason, the in-vehicle AV device 400 can perform radio broadcasting based on various states previously set by the user even when the power supply from each of the power supply means E1 and E2 is stopped and then restarted. Etc., and the setting operation is not made to be performed by the user every time the power supply from each of the power supply means E1 and E2 is started. Therefore, the convenience of the in-vehicle AV device 400 can be further improved.

  Further, the processing control device of the present invention is applied to an in-vehicle AV device 400 mounted on a vehicle as a moving body. For this reason, the in-vehicle AV device 400 has a configuration in which the processing control device is not provided even when the power of the normal power supply unit E1 is lost or the vehicle becomes unmovable due to a disaster or failure, for example. In comparison, each broadcast and disc content can be output for a longer time with the power from the emergency power supply means E2. Therefore, the in-vehicle AV device 400 with high convenience can be provided.

[Modification of Embodiment]
Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and includes the following modifications as long as the object of the present invention can be achieved.

  That is, for example, the configuration shown in FIGS. 14 and 15 may be used. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 14, the processing unit 720 provided in the in-vehicle AV device 700 of the in-vehicle AV system 600 is connected to the normal power supply unit E1, and the amount of power of the normal power supply unit E1. An electric energy detecting means 800 for detecting the change state is detachably connected. Then, the processing unit 720 as the calculation means is in a state where the change state of the power amount from the power amount detection means 800 to the normal power supply means E1 is reduced in the power change recognition means 721 as the recognition means as shown in FIG. When a certain decrease state signal is acquired, an emergency operation process similar to that in the above-described embodiment is performed. That is, the information output control means 722 as the process control means controls the power supply switching means 710 based on the selected source information 510 by the supply switching control means 722A, and the normal power supply means E1 and the units 441, 442, One or two of 443 are connected. Then, based on the operation setting information 520, the respective units 441, 442, and 443 are controlled so that only predetermined processing can be performed. For this reason, the processing unit 720 uses the power from the normal power supply unit E1 to reduce the amount of power of the normal power supply unit E1 and, for example, when there is a possibility that output processing of various types of information may not be performed. No processing other than the predetermined processing is performed at 442, 443 and the like. Therefore, the in-vehicle AV apparatus 700 has the power consumption of the normal power supply means E1 as compared with the configuration in which all the processes are performed in the units 441, 442, 443, etc. by the power from the normal power supply means E1. Can be reduced, and each unit 441, 442, 443 can be operated for a longer time. Therefore, the in-vehicle AV apparatus 700 can appropriately control the execution state of the processes in the units 441, 442, 443, and the like. Instead of the power amount detection unit 800, for example, a configuration for detecting a change state of the power supplied from the normal power supply unit E1 may be provided between the normal power supply connection unit 410 and the processing unit 720.

  Further, in the in-vehicle AV device 700, for example, when an operation button (not shown) is detected and the operation button is detected, a decrease state signal indicating that the change state of the power amount of the normal power supply means E1 is a decrease state is output. A decrease state signal output means (not shown) for outputting to the change recognition means 721 is provided. And it is good also as a structure which implements an emergency operation | movement process, when the power change recognition means 721 acquires a reduction | decrease state signal from a reduction | decrease state signal output means. With this configuration, the user can operate the in-vehicle AV apparatus 700 in an emergency by operating the operation button even when the change state of the power amount of the normal power supply means E1 is not a decrease state. Operation processing can be performed. Therefore, even when the change state of the amount of power of the normal power supply means E1 is not a decrease state, it is possible to provide a highly convenient in-vehicle AV apparatus 700 that can reduce the power consumption of the normal power supply means E1. Here, the reduction state signal output means may output the reduction state signal to the power amount detection means 800 or the supply switching control means 722A.

  Then, in the in-vehicle AV apparatus 400, for example, an operation button (not shown) and when detecting that the operation button is operated, a connection signal as a supply signal indicating that the emergency power supply means E2 is connected is indicated as a power connection detection means. Connection signal output means (not shown) as supply signal output means for outputting to 491 is provided. Then, when the connection signal is acquired from the connection signal output means by the power connection detection means 491, processing similar to the emergency operation processing is performed by the power from the normal power supply means E1 instead of the emergency power supply means E2. It is good also as composition to do. With this configuration, the user can cause the in-vehicle AV apparatus 400 to perform the same process as the emergency operation process by using the power of the normal power supply means E1 by operating the operation button. . Therefore, it is possible to provide a highly convenient in-vehicle AV apparatus 400 that can appropriately reduce the power consumption of the normal power supply means E1 in addition to the emergency power supply means E2. Here, the connection signal output means may output the connection signal to the supply switching control means 493A.

And connect. Then, the output control means 493D to 493F do not recognize the input operation of the input unit 450 corresponding to each of the parts 441, 442, 443 that are not operated by the emergency power supply means E2, so that the parts 441, 442, 443 are appropriately set. It may be configured to operate. In addition, when each of the output control units 493D to 493F recognizes an input operation of the input unit 450 corresponding to each unit 441, 442, 443 that is not operated by the emergency power supply unit E2, each unit 441, 442 that is not operated is recognized. By not performing the control of 443, the respective units 441, 442, and 443 may be appropriately operated. With such a configuration, the power supply switching unit 430 is provided with a function of selectively connecting the emergency power supply connection unit 420 and only one or two of the units 441, 442, and 443. There is no need. Therefore, the configuration of the power supply switching means 430 can be simplified.

  And it is good also as a structure which controls to the state which can implement only a predetermined | prescribed process with all the each part 441,442,443 by the electric power from emergency power supply means E2. With such a configuration, it is necessary to provide the power supply switching unit 430 with a function of selectively connecting the emergency power supply connection unit 420 and only one or two of the units 441, 442, and 443. The power supply switching means 430 can be simplified in configuration. Further, it is not necessary to provide the selection source information 510, and the configuration of the emergency operation information 500 can be simplified.

  Further, each output control means 493D, 493E selectively outputs only specific information such as information on disaster, weather or traffic among radio broadcast and television broadcast information to be output with the power of the emergency power supply means E2. It is good also as a structure which provides a function. With such a configuration, the in-vehicle AV device 400 can further reduce the power consumption of the emergency power supply means E2 and output each broadcast for a longer time than the configuration in which all information of each broadcast is output. it can.

  In addition, each output control means 493D, 493E has a function of selecting each broadcasting station set by the user to each unit 441, 442 and a function for automatically causing each unit 441, 442 to select each emergency broadcasting station. It is good also as a structure which does not provide. With such a configuration, the configuration of each output control means 493D, 493E can be simplified. Further, it is not necessary to incorporate each channel selection setting information 522, 524 and each automatic channel selection flag 521, 523 into the operation setting information 520, and the configuration of the operation setting information 520 can be simplified.

  The disc output control means 493F may be configured not to have a function for restricting only the disc content playback process to the disc unit 443. With such a configuration, the configuration of the disk output control means 493F can be simplified. Further, it is not necessary to incorporate the reproduction restriction flag 525 into the operation setting information 520, and the configuration of the operation setting information 520 can be simplified.

  Further, the voice form setting unit 493B may be configured not to have a function of fixing the volume to a fixed volume or a function of fixing the sound quality to a low sound quality. With such a configuration, the configuration of the voice form setting unit 493B can be simplified. Further, it is not necessary to incorporate the flags 526 and 527 in the operation setting information 520, and the configuration of the operation setting information 520 can be simplified.

  Further, the image form setting unit 493C may be configured not to have a function of fixing the image quality to a low image quality.

Further, it is not necessary to incorporate the low image quality flag 528 into the operation setting information 520, and the configuration of the operation setting information 520 can be simplified.

  Furthermore, it is good also as a structure which controls each part 442,443 to the state which displays an image intermittently by each output control means 493E and 493F. With such a configuration, the power consumption of the emergency power supply means E2 can be reduced as compared with a configuration in which images of television broadcasts and disc contents are continuously displayed, that is, a configuration in which images are displayed in a normal state. Content can be output for a longer time.

  Then, the emergency operation information 500 may be stored in the nonvolatile memory 480, for example, with the following configuration. That is, the supply switching control unit 493A connects, for example, randomly selected or specific units 441, 442, 443 and the emergency power supply connection unit 420. And each means 493B-493F is good also as a structure which carries out limited selection or the specific process, for example selected at random. With such a configuration, it is not necessary to provide the nonvolatile memory 480 in the in-vehicle AV device 400. Further, it is not necessary to provide the operation information generating unit 492 in the processing unit 490. Therefore, the configuration of the in-vehicle AV device 400 can be simplified.

  Further, without incorporating the selection source information 510 into the emergency operation information 500, the supply switching control means 493A, for example, randomly selected or specific units 441, 442, 443, the emergency power connection unit 420, It is good also as a structure which connects.

With such a configuration, the configuration of the processing unit 490 can be simplified.

  Further, the emergency operation information 500 may be stored in a so-called volatile storage unit that does not store the emergency operation information 500 in the nonvolatile memory 480 but erases the stored information when the power supply is stopped.

  In addition, the information output processing means 440 functions as the processing execution means of the present invention, and all processes are performed by only one or two of the units 441, 442, 443 by the power supplied from the emergency power supply means E2.
