However, I have also bought the Ipod interface and am curious what needs to be added to the VO list. Only +IPOD and that is it?
If you allready have MP3 then yes.

IPOD success:

2004 E60, no NAV

I had to remove $694 (Thanks straba!), add +IPOD, add +KMP3

it still didn't work

I manually edited the MASK for mp3CDC and MP3 --> after that we got it working.

So what is the required process for FA Write?
1) Update the FA
2) FA Write to CAS
3) FA Write to LMA

?? Do we write the FA to both of these?

Yes you must write the new FA to both the CAS and LMA.

I wish I could delete $694, it was one of my first instincts but for some reason the copy of NCS I run does not want to allow this - on two different computers if I highlight an FA and hit delete, nothing happens. But it makes perfect sense to get rid of the prep FA first....I will keep at it.

Oh and I have bad luck getting the CAS and LMA to accept FA's. I got CAS to take $609 for the nav, but LMA gave an error. CAS takes $655 for Sat, but won't keep it - when I code CAPPL I lose Sat and have to re-add it every time. I got LMA to take +MUEB and keep it, but CAS refused it - maybe that's an exception?

It's always dramatic....

Got iPod working....no thanks to my useless FA list, haha.

Went into the CAPPL and set CDC to aktiv, set MP3_CCC to full and under that 'extern' (Thanks David ) and it all works.

So now it looks like this:

CDC
aktiv

MP3_CCC
full
extern

Then I coded CAPPL, the CDC functions showed up and when I re-read the FSW_PSW for CAPPL the 'extern' went away but the functionality remained.

Today I want to figure out how to make the Halos brighter on LCI headlight while lights are on. I see all sorts of LCI's running around LA, some are bright at night and some are dim like mine - if I find anything I will post here.

Thanks for your help guys!

Hmm..

I am wondering which cable everyone is running?

I am debating about these 2:

Serial and only supports up to 2007 BMW
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT

Usb and supports later vehicles
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT


Which one is everyone running?
What version of NCS?

I am going to learn this if it kills me. ha!

Hi

I have a Dension GW 500 with BTA1500 (Bluetooth) and a AVR (video mudule) connected.

Ive also got an reverse camera from ebay that I will connect, but to get it working I need to add some codes in the VO.
Anyone knows which one??

For TV/VIDEO and Revese camera?


Thanks

For the reverse camera you will need an ACM or an iDrive interface. No need to add any VOs.
