3.1

Adaptive front-lighting system; AFS

A lighting device, which provides light beams with different characteristics; can automatically adapt to the needs of low beam and high beam (if used) under different conditions of use; realizes the basic functions described in 5.3.1.1.The system consists of "system controls" and one or more "input and operating devices" (if configured), as well as mounting units on the left and right sides of the vehicle.

3.2

Class of a passing beam

The low beam type, which is set to achieve different road lighting needs.

3.3

Mode

A front-lighting function provided by the system, which is a beam within the scope of 5.3.2 and 5.3.3, can EITHER be a low beam of a certain class OR be a high beam, according to the manufacturer's design requirements, to suit the specific lighting needs of different vehicles and different road conditions.

3.3.1

Bending mode

A front-lighting mode, which is designed for detours, continuous detours or intersections. It can meet specific photometric conditions; its illuminance can be shifted laterally or equivalently changed, to obtain the same lighting effect.

3.5

Installation unit

A non-removable housing (lamp body), which contains one or more lighting units.

3.6

Left side

The sum of the lighting units, which are installed on the left side of the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, as relative to the vehicle's forward direction.

3.7

Right side

The sum of the lighting units, which are installed on the right side of the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, as relative to the vehicle's forward direction.

4 Different types of systems

Adaptive front-lighting systems differ in the following ways.

5 Requirements

5.1 General requirements

5.1.1 The system or its components can still meet the requirements of use AND meet the requirements of this standard, even if they are subjected to vibration, under normal conditions of use.

5.1.3 The system shall use light sources, which comply with GB 15766.1 and/or ECE

R37 and ECE R99, except for the use of LED modules. The light source used shall meet the following requirements.

5.1.4 The system shall comply with the provisions of A.2 and A.3.

5.1.5 If the optical lens of the system is made of plastic material, it shall also comply with the provisions of Appendix B.

5.1.6 For any mechanical, electro-mechanical or other device, which is combined with the lighting unit and used to control beam conversion, on a system or its components as designed to be switchable between high beam and low beam, its structure shall meet the following requirements.

5.1.7 The designed system can provide a failure signal, when a light source and/or an

LED module fails. The installation of the failure signal indicator shall comply with the requirements of E.2.7.5.2.

5.3 Photometric performance

5.3.1 General provisions

5.3.3.

5.3.1.4 Photometric measurements shall be carried out, as described by the manufacturer, as follows.

5.3.2 Photometric requirements for low beam

5.3.2.1 Before the start of the test, set the system to a neutral state AND emit a class C (basic) low beam.

7.2.1.5 The angle coordinates are determined, according to the specified spherical coordinates (angle unit. degrees), which is equivalent to that the goniometer has a horizontal axis (with a certain elevation angle) fixed to the ground, AND another movable (rotation) axis perpendicular to the horizontal fixed axis.

7.2.1.9 The lighting units of the system shall be measured one by one. However, two or more lighting units of one installation unit can be measured, at the same time, provided that -- they use the same type of light source AND have their own input power supply (power supply can be controlled or uncontrolled); the dimensions and positions are such that the luminous surface of these lighting units is completely contained within a rectangle, which has a horizontal extension of not more than 300 mm and a vertical extension of not more than 150 mm; the manufacturer specifies a common reference center.

7.2.2.2 When a replaceable gas discharge light source is used, use the standard gas discharge light source, which is specified in GB 15766.1 or ECE R99; the photometric measurement shall be carried out, after at least 15 cycles of aging. If at least one standard light source is used in the measurement, AND its photometric performance meets the corresponding requirements of this standard, THEN, the system or its components are considered to meet the requirements. The luminous flux of the gas discharge light source can be different from the target value, which is specified in GB

15766.1 or ECE R99.At this time, the measured photometric value shall be corrected in time; the correction factor is 0.7.

7.2.3 Measurement of bending mode

8 Inspection rules

8.1 Determination of system type

The determination of the system type shall be in accordance with the provisions of

Chapter 4.

8.2 Compliance with type inspection and production consistency

The system shall be subject to type inspection and production consistency inspection.

If the corresponding provisions of 8.3 or 8.4 are met, the system is considered to have passed the type inspection or consistency inspection.

8.3 Type inspection

8.3.2 Each system sample shall comply with the provisions of Chapters 5 and 6.

8.3.3 The system samples shall comply with the requirements of the photometric stability test, in Appendix A.
