Z Series E85 Z4 3.0i (M54) ROADST
To ensure optimum reception, these 3 TV aerials work as follows:
•
2 TV aerials (TV 1, TV 2) receive the desired TV channel.
•
1 TV aerial (TV 3) searches in the background for other transmission frequencies for this television station.
The required television station is received on the transmission frequencies with the highest signal strength.
Aerial diversity works as follows:
If more than one station have the same name when analogue TV is in use, then there are alternative
frequencies. e.g. "Television station 1" is being received on 3 different analogue frequencies. In this case the
television station is displayed just once.
Aerial diversity automatically selects the best frequency. "Television station 1" is shown in the display.
If, however, a television station is transmitting "Television station 1" analogue on several frequencies and
"1st digital" digitally on another frequency, then the display shows the following:
•
Aerial diversity combines all frequencies for analogue television.
The best frequency is selected and displayed. e.g.: "Television station 1".
•
However, aerial diversity is not able to combine the following TV stations: Analogue reception for
"Television station 1" and digital reception for the "1st digital".
This is because: The video module cannot assign the two different notations and meanings to one another.
This means "Television station 1" appears twice in the list of stations: Once analogue as "Television station 1"
and once digitally as the "1st digital".
Video switch
The video module switchers between the various video sources, e.g. between television and video.
This function is called "video switch".

Adjusting screen settings
Users can adjust the screen settings for colour, contrast and brightness: Cal up the corresponding menu (with
the controller on the CD or CID).
The controller controls the monitor settings.
Depending on the equipment specification, the screen setting is processed in the following control units:
•
Vehicles with television in the front:
> E60, E61, E63, E64, E70, E71, E90, E91, E92, E93: Car Communication Computer (CCC)
> E65, E66, R83, E85, E86:
For vehicles with navigation system, the screen setting is processed in the control unit for the navigation
system (NAV).
On vehicles without navigation system, the video module processes the monitor settings.
•
