Vehicle remote control system

Abstract

A vehicle-mounted device includes vehicle information detecting unit for detecting an on/off state of vehicle power, relay input/output unit for controlling an external relay configured to make a switch between a starting-disabled state and a starting-enabled state of a vehicle, and vehicle information-associated control unit for controlling the external relay based on a relay control command. The vehicle information-associated control unit controls the external relay based on an elapsed time since a change in the on/off state of vehicle power detected by the vehicle information detecting unit.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A vehicle remote control system comprising:
 a vehicle-mounted device which is mounted in a vehicle; and   a server, wherein   the server:
 acquires vehicle information and position information from the vehicle-mounted device; and 
 transmits a starting state control command for commanding to switch a starting state of the vehicle between a starting-disable state and a starting-enabled state to the vehicle-mounted device, when judging that the power of the vehicle is off based on the vehicle information and when judging that the vehicle is stopped at a predetermined parking area based on the position information, and 
   the vehicle-mounted device switches the starting state of the vehicle between the starting-disable state and the starting-enabled state based on the starting state control command.   
     
     
         2 . The vehicle remote control system according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the server doesn't transmit the starting state control command, when judging that the power of the vehicle is on based on the vehicle information and when judging that the vehicle is in a place that is not the predetermined parking area based on the position information.   
     
     
         3 . A server, wherein
 the server:
 acquires vehicle information and position information from a vehicle-mounted device which is mounted in a vehicle; and 
 transmits a starting state control command for commanding to switch a starting state of the vehicle between a starting-disable state and a starting-enabled state to the vehicle-mounted device, when judging that the power of the vehicle is off based on the vehicle information and when judging that the vehicle is stopped at a predetermined parking area based on the position information. 
   
     
     
         4 . The server according to  claim 3 , wherein
 the server doesn't transmit the starting state control command, when judging that the power of the vehicle is on based on the vehicle information and when judging that the vehicle is in a place that is not the predetermined parking area based on the position information.   
     
     
         5 . A vehicle-mounted device which is mounted in a vehicle, wherein
 the vehicle-mounted device:
 communicates with a server, 
 receives a starting state control command for commanding to switch a starting state of the vehicle between a starting-disable state and a starting-enabled state from the server, when the power of the vehicle is off and when the vehicle is stopped at a predetermined parking area, and 
 switches the starting state of the vehicle between the starting-disable state and the starting-enabled state based on the starting state control command.
