Abstract
There is provided a drive control apparatus that can maintain a drive control system to be in a safe state even in a case where operational abnormality of avoiding a normal reset of a control processor or operational abnormality of avoiding solution even after resetting the control processor occurs in the control processor. The control processor includes an actuator control processing unit configured to generate a control signal for a drive circuit being a control target apparatus and an actuator, and a diagnosis processing unit configure to diagnosing the actuator control processing unit. The diagnosis processing unit cyclically outputs a reset signal to WDT in a case where the operation of the control processor is normal. The WDT continuously outputs a cutoff signal for cutting off a supply of the control signal from the control processor to the control target apparatus when the cyclic reset signal stops.
