Overall network
A data bus is a data collection line, the data of which can be used by all the control units connected.

Function
Most control units of the vehicle are linked to each other via data bus lines, in other words there is no direct electrical connection between a sensor and the executing actuator.

A corresponding message (data) is generated using the sensor signal and made available to the data bus system. However, the data flow must be controlled using an access procedure (log) if all control units utilize a common data bus line.

Data bus systems
5 data bus systems are involved in the networking:
- CAN-B
- CAN-C
- CAN-D
- MOST
- LIN

The operational field is differentiated as follows:
- CAN-B links the control units of systems located in the vehicle interior (e.g. power windows, heated rear window, etc.).
- CAN-C links the control units for the drive and chassis systems (e.g. engine, transmission control, etc.).
- CAN-D links the central gateway control unit with the data link connector to perform diagnosis on all networked control units.
- The MOST links the control units of the audio and navigation systems via a fiber optic cable (if equipped e.g. the telephone, the voice control, etc.).
- The LIN bus is used where rather simple control and monitoring tasks are to be performed in the vehicle.

Higher requirements are placed on the CAN-C with regard to immunity to interference, e.g. electromagnetic effect or radiation, and the data transfer rate.

CAN bus systems
The CAN bus systems are two-wire data bus systems. They differ from one another in terms of transfer rate depending on the requirement.

MOST bus
The MOST bus is an optical data bus system. Here the data are transferred via fiber optic cables to the connected control units for information, navigation, and communication systems.

LIN bus
The LIN bus is a single-wire data bus system. A LIN bus is used e.g. between the multifunction steering wheel and the steering column module as well as between the ME-SFI [ME] control unit and the alternator.

Data exchange between the data bus systems
Depending on the equipment, the radio or the audio gateway control unit is the interface (gateway) for data exchange between the MOST and the CAN-B. The central gateway control unit is the interface for data interchange between the CAN-B and the CAN-C. It also represents the interface via CAN-D to the data link connector to enable the control units to be tested using STAR DIAGNOSIS.

The steering column module, the instrument cluster and the EIS [EZS] control unit are connected with the CAN B as well as with the CAN C. However, they do not act as an interface (gateway) between the two data bus systems. The steering column module reads in the signals of the switch actuations on the steering column module and all the signals of the button actuations on the multifunction steering wheel (MFL) over the LIN bus and places these signals on the CAN B. The steering angle at the steering wheel is sensed electronically via the steering angle sensor (N49). The signals of the steering angle are placed on CAN-C via the steering column module.
