Most Network
The MOST network can consist of up to 9 different control modules.
The infotainment control module (ICM) deals with monitoring and communication on the MOST network. The infotainment control module (ICM) is in turn monitored by the central electronic module (CEM) on the CAN network.
From the Infotainment Control Module (ICM), only the Integrated Audio Module (IAM) is standard on the MOST network.
The table below lists all the control modules which may be included in the MOST network.
Explanation:
CAN = Controller Area Network, electrical network for communication.
MS CAN = CAN low speed section.
MOST = Media Oriented Systems Transport, fiber optic network for communication.
Master control module = Control module which monitors the MOST network.
Slave control module = Control module which supplies the MOST network functions.
Option = Factory installed accessories, during the purchase of a new car.
Accessory = After market installation.
