CCC: Car Communication Computer
> E60, E61, E63, E64
The scale of the image on the Central Information Display is calculated by the Car Communication Computer:
split screen display <-> full screen display.

NAV: Navigation system
> E60, E61, E63, E64
If no video module is fitted, the FBAS wire from the Night-Vision electronics is connected to the Car
Communication Computer. The Car Communication Computer then transmits the image signals to the Central
Information Display via an LVDS data wire.
> E65, E66
If the vehicle does not have a video module, or does have a rear entertainment system, the FBAS wire from the
night-vision electronics will be connected to the navigation system. In such cases, the navigation system will
transmit the image signals to the Control Display via an RGB wire.

The video module transmits the image signals to the Car Communication Computer (CCC) via an FBAS wire.
> E60, E61, E63, E64 (Japan version)
The video module transmits the image signals to the Car Communication Computer (CCC) via an RGB wire.
