Introduction and warning
A part of this information is based on research done by Thomas L. Wood, who has connected a Linux
embedded PC in his E39 (without NAV) to play MP3 . After exchanges with Thomas, I built my own interface
to start I-Bus analysis with the objective to interface a MP3 pic basedplayer fully integrated with the board
monitor.
Note that all this document is based on analysis done in a E39 (July 2000) with a MK II navigation system.
I can't ensure if informations and/or device behaviours are identical for others models.
