Direct lines
The tuner unit receives the signals from the following components over direct lines:
- COMAND controller unit (A40/3) (wake-up signal)
- Multifunction antenna (A28/11) (with code 536 (SIRIUS satellite radio))
- FM 2, DAB and TV antenna amplifier (A2/19) (model 166 with code 537 (Digital Radio (DAB)) or code 865 (TV tuner))
- FM 2 and DAB antenna amplifier (A2/19) (model 292 with code 537 (Digital Radio (DAB)))
- TV and DAB antenna splitter (A2/124) (model 166 with code 537 (Digital Radio (DAB)) and code 865 (TV tuner))
- TV 1 antenna amplifier (A94/5) (with code 865 (TV tuner))
- TV 2 antenna amplifier (A94/6) (with code 537 (Digital Radio (DAB)) or code 865 (TV tuner))
- TV 3 antenna amplifier (A94/7) (with code 865 (TV tuner))
MOST
The tuner unit is a MOST user and it communicates over it with the COMAND controller unit.
Processing signals
- With code 536 (SIRIUS satellite radio): The tuner unit decodes and amplifies the satellite signals (Time Division Multiplex (TDM)) and the terrestrial signals (Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing with forward error correction (COFDM)) into Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) signals.
- With code 537 (Digital Radio (DAB)): The tuner unit decodes the DAB-Band-III signals into PCM signals.
- With code 865 (TV tuner): The tuner unit decodes and demodulates the TV signals and separates them into video and audio signals.
- With code 865 (TV tuner) and code 537 (Digital radio (DAB)): The tuner unit separates the DAB-Band-III signals from the TV signals on the TV 1 antenna input.

From the 29.03.2017 onwards, TV broadcasts in Germany will no longer be broadcast in the DVB-T1 transmission standard. The DVB-T2 transmission standard will be launched. In Korea, a conversion will be made to the High-Definition-Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (HD-DMB) transmission standard in August 2017.
This is way, as from 01.03.2017 onwards, tuner units will be installed in Europe that can receive the DVB-T2 transmission standard. HD-DMB tuner units are installed in South Korea.
DVB-T2- or HD-DMB tuner units can be retrofitted without any problems. To receive encoded stations, in a vehicle for the German market, a CI module can be inserted into the card reader. The card reader is connected by a USB line to the tuner unit.
Transmitting signals
- Low Voltage Differential Signal (LVDS) (with code 865 (TV tuner))
- MOST
LVDS (with code 865 (TV tuner))
The tuner unit sends video signals over the LVDS line to the COMAND controller unit.
MOST
The tuner unit is a MOST user and it communicates over it with the COMAND controller unit.
