BMW E38/E39 On-board Monitor and Navigation System

The On-board Monitor System was introduced as optional equipment on the 1997 MY E38s and E39s. It was made standard on the E38 750iL for 1999 and standard for all E38s in 2000. It uses the latest advances in electronic technology to bring new levels of comfort and convenience to the driver and passengers for control of the audio/communication systems. In addition the Mark I Navigation system is incorporated into the total scope of On-board Monitor Control.

NOTE: The E39 six cylinder models with the On-board Monitor option are equipped with the high version IKE and On Board Computer functions.

The On-board Monitor is essentially a control and display unit. All data processing and calculations are carried out by the individual system control modules. The display data is sent to the On-board Monitor over the various interfaces. The On-board Monitor is mounted in the center dash console. It replaces the Radio/Tape Player, MID and DSP control panel (E38) if equipped.
