Location 

The radio with auto pilot system is located in the center console.

Task 

The radio with auto pilot system has the following tasks:

Operating unit for entertainment and communication systems 

The radio with auto pilot system provides the user with a structured and uniform interface for the following system components:

Reading in of signals 

The input factors are read in via the following connections:

Direct lines 

The radio with auto pilot system is equipped with the following direct connections:

CAN 

The radio with autopilot system is a subscriber on the interior CAN (CAN B) and telematics CAN (CAN A).

The signals are read in by the radio with auto pilot system. The functions resulting therefrom are described in the corresponding function descriptions (see block diagram or function schematic).

MOST 

The radio with autopilot system receives the control and audio signals from the following control unit via MOST:

Evaluation of input factors 

The input factors are evaluated by the microprocessor and the corresponding components are actuated.

Actuation of system components 

The following output signals are output by the radio with autopilot system to actuate the system components:

Design 

The following components are integrated into the radio with auto pilot system:

Function 

The control signals from the button on the operating panel on the radio with auto pilot system are read in and relayed to the central computer. The control signals are processed further in the central computer and forwarded via MOST, the telematics CAN and the interior CAN to the other system components in the form of messages. If the ON button on the radio with auto pilot system is pressed, the radio with auto pilot system switches on. The volume is regulated for each audio source set by turning the ON button. The function keys switch over to the audio source desired by the user.

Variants 

The radio with auto pilot system is available in the following variants:

Diagnosis 

The radio with auto pilot system is the diagnosis gateway for all MOST subscribers. The diagnostic communication takes place between the radio with the auto pilot system and the front SAM control unit with fuse and relay module (N10/1) via the interior CAN. The diagnostic communication between the front SAM control unit and the diagnostic connector (X11/4) connected to the IS tester is performed via diagnostic CAN (CAN D).
