Yaw Rate Sensor; Gateway Processor - BMW F01 Manual

Yaw Rate Sensor

The Car Information Computer features a yaw rate sensor. It supplies the data relating to
changes in driving direction for the navigation system.
This data is required for the purpose of determining the exact position as satellite signals
cannot be received everywhere (tunnels, underground parking lot etc.).
The yaw rate sensor is a separate module
soldered on the main board. It has been
greatly reduced in size compared to the
yaw rate sensor in the Car Communication
Computer.
Unlike with CCC, it is no longer possible to
replace the yaw rate sensor separately from
the entire unit.

Gateway Processor

The gateway processor converts all relevant data of the K-CAN system into MOST-bus
telegrams and vice versa.
The electronic module is soldered into the board
directly under the hard disk drive and cannot be
replaced separately.
The gateway processor has its own control unit
address in the BMW diagnosis system.
