1. Introduction
The Intravee is designed to provide full control and display capability for Alpine AI-
Net components use the BMW or Rover OEM audio system. As far as possible the
interface looks and feels as though it was original BMW or Rover equipment.
1.1. User Interface Mode
Due to the wide range of different head units supplied in BMW and Rover cars, the
Intravee has different User Interface (UI) modes to enable the maximum use to be
made of the available features. By default the Intravee will automatically try to
determine the correct UI mode so setting the UI should not be required. On changing
from a system with one UI mode to another system with a different UI mode it may
take the Intravee up to 30 seconds to switch to the new UI mode. One set the UI
mode will remain set until a different system configuration is detected.
1.1.1. UI Mode 1
Single Line text on the Professional Navigation system. Normally this mode is not
used for the navigation system, however cars equipped for the Japanese market do not
support the menu area that the Intravee normally uses.
1.1.2. UI Mode 2
Single line text on E46, E83 (X3) and E8 (Z4) Business Tape, CD or MD head units.
Mini ‘Boost’ Tape, CD or MD Head units.

1.1.4. UI Mode 4
Single line text on the E38, E39, E 3 (X ) and Range Rover MID (Multi Information
Display) and IRIS (Integrated Radio Information System).

On the MID, the location of the ‘Back’ and ‘Sel’ keys is dependent on the type of
radio module that is connected to the MID, they are usually positioned on two of the 4
keys on the right.

1.2.1. Setting t e UI mode wit a PC
With the Intravee connected to a PC via a serial port connection, either a native serial
port or a USB/Serial adapter and a 9 pin ‘D’ extension serial cable, the UI mode can
be set using any terminal emulation program or the Intravee downloader program by
issuing the command
setui X
where X is the required UI mode. Issuing this command will disable the Intravee auto
detect mode. Auto detect mode can be re-enabled using the command
setui auto
1.2.2. Setting t e UI mode wit t e ead unit
If you cannot connect a PC to the Intravee then the UI can be set from the head unit
using a special key press sequence.
First, select the Intravee as the source using the MODE key on your head unit. Next,
with a gap of 1 second between key presses, do the following:
Turn the radio off
Turn the radio on
Press the Prev button < on the head unit
Press the Next button > on the head unit
Turn the radio off
Turn the radio on
You should have about 1 second between each button press, if it does not work then
change your timing a bit and try again.
When in UI selection mode the track number will indicate the UI number that will be
set and the CD number will display CD 9 to indicate that the Intravee is in UI setup
mode.
To change the UI use the < and > buttons to change the track to the required UI mode
between 1 and 6, when done press the SCAN button (or the Clock, Tape Reverse or
Dolby button on Nav) to set the selection. On the Mini, Z4 and X3 you need to enter
the 'Sel' menu and select the 'SCAN' option as these head units have no physical
'SCAN' key.
The Intravee should reboot, the new UI should be set.
Setting the UI directly will disable the Intravee auto detect mode, this can only be re-
enabled by connecting the Intravee to a PC.

2. Single Line display UI Modes 1,2,3 and 4
The Intravee menu is controlled using 4 navigation keys to select Next and Previous
items on the current menu, to select a new menu or perform the desired action and to
exit the menu. These actions are called Next, Previous, Select and Go Back.
The keys that are used depend on the head unit type and thus the UI mode.

Table 5 UI 4 Control Keys (MID)

Go Back ‘Back’ labelled Key
On some head units the SCAN or Rnd key action may be performed by using a long
key press of another key. Although the above keys will always perform the actions
described, it is also possible to program any of the assignable keys to any of the above
actions.
As the < and > keys on the head unit are used for menu navigation, when navigating
any menu it is not possible to change tracks with these keys. The < and > keys on the
head unit will only change tracks while the Intravee is displaying the Now Playing

6
menu. If you have a Multi Function Wheel then the < and > keys can be assigned so
that they always perform the Next or Previous track action.
2.1. T e double key press issue
Some of the older Business and Professional head units require a key to be pressed to
clear any text that is displayed before any key will perform an action. The easiest
way to work around this behaviour is to double press the keys – the first press clears
the text, the second key is acted upon.
The double key press issue is exhibited by several older E46 head units, in particular:
- Business Tape head units with no ‘soft’ key options to the right of the main LCD
- Professional Tape head units.
- Business CD head units with a ‘CD’ key instead of the ‘MODE’ key.
The issue only occurs when using the keys on the head unit, if the car is fitted with the
multifunction wheel, then those keys can be used without having to press them twice.
It is advisable to assign the navigation commands to the wheel keys, if available and
no phone is installed, to make control easier with one of these head units.

2.2.2. Main Menu
The Main Menu can always be select by continued selection of the ‘Go Back’ action.
The first item on the Main Menu is the ‘Intravee’ item. By selecting this item you can
enter the Source Selection menu, or if you have only one source connected to the
Intravee, directly to the Source type specific menu.
The subsequent menu options of Setup, Diagnostics, Status and About will enter the
less commonly used menus used to configure the Intravee and obtain information
about your Intravee.
2.2.3. Source Selection Menu
If the Intravee detects that you have multiple sources connected, for example an AI-
Net switch or a Tuner module, then selecting the ‘Intravee’ option will enter the
source selection menu.
The menu contains a list of sources that have been detected and will be a selection
from the following list:
Source 1
Source 2
Source 3
Source 4
Aux 1
Aux 2
DAB
HD
Sirius
XM
As the names for Sources 1-4 and Aux 1-2 can be defined by the user the actual text
displayed cannot be specified here, the defaults are “Net 1” through “Net 4” for
sources 1 through 4 and “Aux 1” and “Aux 2” for Aux 1 and 2.
- Navigate through the list using the Next and Previous actions.
- Selecting the ‘Select’ actions will select the currently displayed source and
enter its source specific menu.
- Selecting the ‘Go Back’ action will return to the ‘Intravee’ option.
The Aux type source has no options, thus when selecting an Aux type source the
Source selection menu will remain displayed.
2.2.4. Searc ing
When using an iPod or an MP3 CD/DVD Changer the Intravee can search for one
item while playing another. For iPod this includes Playlists, Artists, Albums and
Songs. For MP3 CDs and DVDs this includes Folders and Files.
