5 Series E61 523i (N52) TOUR
The sound signal is received together with the image signal in the TV signal.
Audio output
Audio output is in mono or stereo as follows:
•
Analogue TV sound in mono:
The video module receives the analogue TV sound in mono.
The analogue TV sound is digitalised.
The video module lays the digitalised signal on both the left and right synchronous channel of the MOST
bus.
The ASK or CCC emit the audio signals to the loudspeakers (via the amplifier, depending on equipment
variant).
•
Digital TV sound in stereo:
The digital TV sound is received and emitted in stereo.
Precondition: The TV program is transmitted in stereo.
•
2-channel sound:
2-channel sound is only available with digital television reception.
2-channel sound allows, for example, a foreign-language broadcast to be overdubbed in English. With 2-
channel sound, the language of the country concerned will be output through the loudspeakers. The other
language will be muted.
Mute
If necessary, audio output can be switched between navigation system and television.
The sound signals from the radio and television are muted under the following conditions:
•
Telephone call
•
Navigation system announcements
•
Traffic reports
The CCC or the ASK controls the muting.
Station selection
The video module manages a list of all the television stations that can currently be received.
This list of stations is shown on the Control Display (CD) or Central Information Display (CID) as follows:
•
Where station names for individual TV programmes can be determined, the list starts with the station
names arranged in alphanumeric order (e.g. ARD, BR3, SAT1 ...).
•
After this, a list will appear showing the reception channels with unknown station names. This list is also
alphanumerically ordered: e.g. CH3, CH7, CH12, ... for Channel 3, Channel 7, Channel 12.
Television in front: The list of stations is updated manually by selecting "Autostore".
Front and rear seat television: The list of stations is updated automatically.
The list of stations is also updated if another entertainment module is selected (e.g. if you change to the radio
or DVD changer). When the television is called up again the current list of stations is offered automatically.
Aerial diversity
The aerial diversity function, which is integrated in the video module ensures that the stationary vehicle always
has the best possible reception. The aerial diversity uses certain criteria to select the TV aerial that offers the
best reception.
2 TV aerials are fitted for TV reception in the front (TV 1, TV 2).
3 TV aerials are fitted for TV reception in the front and rear.
