Bmw Ibus Interface Program Software

*** Project: Arduino & BMW K/I-Bus Interface *** This project was born because I chose to do a simple task the hard way. I have a hard-wired radar detector in my E46 BMW – an Escort Redline. The wiring kit includes an alert LED which flashes whenever the radar detector picks up a police radar band. The LED was the perfect brightness during day time, but was a ridiculously bright eye sore in the night time. Instead of simply using a photo-resistor to solve this issue, I decided I wanted to use the already available light sensor in the car. The Rain/Light Sensor is mounted on on the top center of the windshield.

It’s purpose is to: 1) Detect rain on the windshield to automatically turn on the wipers and set a proper wiper speed 2) Detect ambient lighting to control automatic headlight operation It turns out the Rain/Light Sensor is connected to the cars’ internal serial communications bus. This is when I discovered the world of the BMW I/K-Bus.

The program offers fully-fledged functionality delivered in a user-friendly interface and allows experienced users to create. Crypt4Free 5.47 Crypt4Free is files encryption software with ability to encrypt files and text messages. It works with all known programs like iBUS Navcoder, IBUS Android APP. One interesting software that you can use our interface with is the official Webasto.

The K-Bus is a standard bus protocol for automobile electronics. In other words, it is a way for devices within a car to communicate with each other. On the BMW, there are several devices on this bus. Free download call blocker software for nokia asha 2000. These include: • Radio • MFW Steering wheel buttons • CD Changer • Light Control Module • etc There are many possibilities when you are able to read and transmit on this bus. The description of this circuit can be found. Putting things together: Assuming you already own an Arduino (I used an ), the Bill of Materials (BOM) is: • Diode 1N4148 • Resistor 10 ohms • Capacitors: 1uF 47uF 100pF • Melexis TH3122 IC • SOIC to 16DIP adaptor • Small breadboard • Breadboard wires • (optional but recommended) Tools/Equipment: • Soldering iron (for the TH3122 IC) Links & details for Bill of Materials items are shown in the excel sheet below (Available in the section, “Physical Layer” folder).

I soldered the TH3122 onto my SOIC to 16DIP adaptor, then assembled the Arduino breadboard according to my schematic. The is very useful for using software serial. I am using pins 7 and 8 on the arduino. FYI, the signals must be crossed – Tx on arduino to Rx on the converter. Pin 7 on the arduino will be Rx and 8 is Tx. You can use any serial monitor software for debugging – I personally prefer.

Ever wanted to customize your nav, radio or vehicle lighting yourself? Well guess what, you can! Quote:NavCoder is a small application to reprogram BMW navigation computers and other iBUS devices. With NavCoder you can.

* Scan the ibus and retrieve information on every connected device * Scan and retrieve service information, showing vehicle kms and last service data * Code the Light Control Module and switch off light bulb warning messages (great if you are fitting LED lights) as well as code Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) * Code the Navigation computer (Mk2, Mk3 or Mk4) and set any setting you like. You can load languages, change from Mono to Colour nav or vice versa, adjust split screen mode, and change regional settings. * Code the TV and enable TV-in-Motion, change backup camera from NTSC to PAL and more * Code the ULF Bluetooth Telephone module, enable voice recognition, and adjust speed dependent volume * Sync the car clock to your laptop clock to the second * View the ibus data in real time and in plain text! 90% of all ibus messages can be displayed in plain text. * Save and read ibus log files to help in analysing the ibus data flow through the vehicle. Handy for fault finding I've been following this topic for a short while and it seems to be the better way to go about it.

For those of you wanting to re-program your On-Board TV Tuner to allow you to watch TV whilst driving, this will do that! All you need, is the NavCoder software and the Interface Board to plug your laptop into your car's iBus. The application is free, but limited unless you register it for 20Euros. You also need to either make or purchase an iBUS-to-Serial converter (also available in USB a version) I'm going to attempt to get the components from the attached schematic and solder the thing myself.
