Each ECU in a system configuration based on a motorized seatbelt retractor
having an ECU combined with a motor shortens the harness length along
which many currents flow as much as possible. A main ECU and a subsidiary
ECU each have functions corresponding to those are provided to a control
unit for controlling a motor for a motorized seatbelt retractor. The main
ECU determines output start conditions and transmits commands, and the
subsidiary ECU autonomously performs detailed motor current control and
the like.
