ABSTRACT:
An arrangement and method for controlling control devices in an on-board wiring system of a motor vehicle are provided, in which the on-board wiring system has a bus system divided into sub-networks of buses with groups of control devices for controlling operating sequences, and in which the control devices are controllable by way of at least one access to a data transmission via a test instrument. A multifunctional data transmission device is connected to the input side of the bus system, to which data transmission device the sub-networks are connectable directly in parallel and are controllable in a parallel manner with respect to time by way of several control devices distributed on the connected sub-networks. The sub-networks may be structured via a hierarchically defined criteria priority, which takes into account the communication required in the operation between the individual control devices within the sub-networks and between the sub-networks, as well as the data quantities to be transmitted to the individual control devices.
