Task 

Receive signals 

Direct lines 

Telematics CAN (CAN A) (with code (864) Rear entertainment system) 

The TV digital tuner is a telematics CAN subscriber and it communicates with the following control units:

MOST 

The TV digital tuner is a subscriber of the MOST, via which it communicates with the COMAND controller unit (A40/3).

Demodulating and decoding signals 

The TV signals that are received via the antenna amplifier are evaluated internally and separated into video and audio signals.

Transmit signals 

Signals are sent through the following lines:

Direct line 

Telematics (with code (864) Rear entertainment system) 

The TV digital tuner is a telematics CAN subscriber and it communicates with the following control units:

Media Oriented System Transport (MOST) 

The TV digital tuner is a subscriber of the MOST, via which it communicates with the COMAND controller unit. The audio signals are transmitted to the COMAND controller unit or the sound system amplifier control unit (N40/3) (with code (810) Sound system or code (811) Advanced Sound System).

Design 

The TV digital tuner is delivered with a "B-CAS card". The card reader in the digital TV tuner is sealed with a cover to prevent unintended removal of the "B-CAS card".

Special features       Diagnosis IS tester The IS tester can access the diagnostic system of the TV digital tuner via the electronic ignition lock control unit (N73), the interior CAN (CAN B), the COMAND controller unit (A40/3) and the Media Oriented System Transport (MOST). The following service functions are supported:
  • Control unit identification
  • Fault management
  • Read fault list
  • Read freeze frame data of a fault
  • Delete fault codes
  • Wiring test of TV antenna amplifier and audio/video lines for short circuit and connection
  • Read current signal strength - TV antenna amplifier switched on or off
  • Read mean signal strength value - TV antenna amplifier switched on or off
  • Antenna use (TV performs long-term observation)
  • Test picture and test audio
  • Programming TV parameters, i.e. National settings and audio and video lines used
  • Read TV parameters
  • Control module reset
  • Write and read permanent channel list for special usage areas (workshop list)
