First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a wireless transceiver; and
a processor, in communication with the transceiver, programmed to;

Abstract
A vehicle component may operate in a plurality of connectionless functional states including a watchdog state in which the component broadcasts advertisements indicating presence of the vehicle component to personal devices; a notify state in which the component broadcasts cycles of advertisements indicating available features of the component; and a process command state in which the component broadcasts current feature state advertisements responsive to command advertisements received from the personal devices. A personal device may operate in a plurality of connectionless functional states including an acquire interface state in which the personal device collects information indicative of component functions based on non-connectable advertisements from in-vehicle components; a display interface state in which the personal device provides a user interface of controls based on information collected during the acquire interface state; and a process command state in which the device broadcasts command advertisements responsive to operator input to the user interface.
