Dark current cutoff device and dark current cutoff method
A dark current cutoff device ( 1 ) includes: a battery ( 10 ) configure to perform electrical power supply to a load ( 20 ); a cutoff switch ( 32 ), which is provided between the battery ( 10 ) and the load ( 20 ), cuts off the electrical power supply to the load ( 20 ) at a time of being opened, and supplies electrical power to the load ( 20 ) at a time of being closed; a failure recording unit ( 21 ) that determines and records a case where the load ( 20 ) does not operate as a failure of the load ( 20 ); and an open/close determining unit ( 41 ) that determines that the cutoff switch ( 32 ) is opened; and a recording prohibiting unit ( 22 ) configure to prohibit, in a case where the cutoff switch ( 32 ) is determined to be opened by the open/close determining unit ( 41 ), the failure recording unit ( 21 ) from determining and recording the failure.
1. A dark current cutoff device comprising:
a battery configured to perform electrical power supply to a load;
an open/close unit configured to cut off the electrical power supply to the load at a time of being opened, and supply electrical power to the load at a time of being closed, the open/close unit being provided between the battery and the load;
a failure recording unit configured to determine and record, in a case where the load does not operate, a failure of the load;
an open/close determining unit configured to determine that the open/close unit is opened;
a recording prohibiting unit configured to, in a case where the open/close unit is determined to be opened by the open/close determining unit, prohibit the failure recording unit from determining and recording the failure;
an abnormality detecting unit configured to detect abnormality of the open/close unit; and
wherein the recording prohibiting unit does not execute an operation of prohibiting the determining and the recording in a case where the abnormality of the open/close unit is detected by the abnormality detecting unit.
2. The dark current cutoff device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a prohibition instructing unit configured to transmit a signal to prohibit failure recording processing in the case where the open/close unit is determined to be opened by the open/close determining unit,
wherein the recording prohibiting unit is mounted on the load, and based on a signal from the prohibition instructing unit, prohibits the failure recording unit from determining and recording the failure and,
the failure recording unit holds, as a definite state, recorded contents regarding the failure of the load in a case where the signal from the prohibition instructing unit does not reach the recording prohibiting unit.
3. The dark current cutoff device according to claim 1 , wherein the open/close unit is a cutoff switch configured to cut off the electrical power supply to the load and supply the electrical power to the load by manually pulling out and inserting a short-circuit pin.
4. A dark current cutoff method of a dark current cutoff device including a battery configured to perform electrical power supply to a load, and an open/close unit configured to cut off the electrical power supply to the load at a time of being opened, and supply electrical power to the load at a time of being closed, the open/close unit being provided between the battery and the load, the dark current cutoff method comprising:
a failure recording step of determining and recording, in a case where the load does not operate, a failure of the load;
an open/close determining step of determining that the open/close unit is opened;
a recording prohibiting step of prohibiting, in a case where the open/close unit is determined to be opened in the open/close determining step, the failure recording step from determining and recording the failure;
an abnormality detecting step of detecting abnormality of the open/close unit; and
wherein the recording prohibiting step does not execute an operation of prohibiting the determining and the recording in a case where the abnormality of the open/close unit is detected by the abnormality detecting step.
