1. An adapter for automobile use and constituting a non-genuine in-vehicle device different from a genuine in-vehicle gateway
comprising:
a signal input terminal;
a signal processing section; and an output terminal, wherein;
each of the signal input terminals is connected to a non-genuine in-vehicle device or a genuine in-vehicle device,
the signal processing section decodes a non-genuine in-vehicle device signal and generates a decoded signal corresponding
to an operation of each of the non-genuine in-vehicle devices, when an in-vehicle device signal output from each of the non-genuine
in-vehicle devices is supplied to one of the signal input terminals, and
the signal processing section decodes a genuine in-vehicle device signal and generates a decoded signal corresponding to an
operation of each of the genuine in-vehicle devices, when an in-vehicle device signal output from the genuine in-vehicle devices
is supplied to the other one of the signal input terminals, and
the output terminal is a terminal which is connected with a terminal device and to which the decoded signals generated by
the signal processing section are supplied.
