Small question - BMW radio service menu
 

Hello everyone

First i'd like to thank everyone, for making this such a great forum.

And sorry for my bad english..... I'm from Denmark:nanana:

Well.......
I was checking out my Service menu, in my radio mounted in my X5 4,4i 2002. (16:9 screen with MK4 nav.)

Can anyone please tell me what GAL means? I am able to change the setting from mode 1 to 6, but don't know what it means.!


Thanks again

......Allan

I don’t have the answer but

Gallon? :wavey::xoutpost::wavey:

You probably need L for litre.

No idea, but :xoutpost: :wavey:

I don't think is Gallon. Rememeber it is in the Radio service menu.


But thanks anyway:thumbup:

GAL: Speed sensitive volume control.

SERVICE MODE FUNCTIONS

NOTE: Functions vary between models.

Serial Number: Displays the radio serial number.

Software Version: Displays the radio software version (Calendar week/Year/Version).

GAL: Speed sensitive volume control.
The speed sensitive volume control can be adjusted from level 1-6 using the 6 preset audio buttons. Radio
volume increases more at level 6 and less at level 1 (road speed dependent).

Vehicles equipped with DSP do not use this feature.

Field Strength & Quality (F/Q): The station currently displayed can be assessed for field strength and quality.
An 'F' number (i.e. 1-15) is used to indicate the strength of the signal being received by the radio. A high 'F'
number indicates a strong signal.
A 'Q' number (i.e. 1-15) is used to determine the quality of the radio station broadcast including both the audio
and RDS signal if applicable.

DSP: Digital Sound Processor
This function provides information about whether or not the vehicle is fitted with DSP. (1=Yes, 0=NO)

TP Volume: Traffic Patrol
Provides adjustment for traffic report minimum value. On some vehicles this setting can affect the NAV volume.
Refer to Service Bulletin B84 02 03.

AF: Alternative frequency tracking setting. Not used in US.

Area: Used to select the appropriate market setting (USA, Canada, Europe, Japan or Oceania).

Index: Displays the revision index.

Not so sure this is true - I can adjust this on my DSP system

just have a look:popcorn:

Thanks................ I was adjusting the settings, while holding still, thats probably why i could't hear any differences. :thumbup:
