▀▄ eas | smartTV, smartTOP, and remoteKEY+
remoteKEY+
The remoteKEY project was something we introduced that dates back to 2007 on BMW 3-series models, which allowed specific convenience features such as the following: - Remote window control - Automatic door unlocking when ignition is turned off - All windows can be closed One-Touch with the wide "All-Windows" button in the driver's door. - Remote Fold-in Mirrors (if equipped) As many already know, EU models seem to keep the cool features while US models feel a bit left out in the cold, likely due to liability concerns, among other matters. Rather than create a whole different module, we felt the features would be best suited integrated into an existing product. Please see the included video clip: Features: - Full factory alarm confirmation chirp/flashing corners/blinking mirror/LED emulation - Remote window control: One-Touch operation of the windows and sunroof with the original remote on all models (US and Euro) - Automatic door unlocking when ignition is turned off. Avoid having to pull the door handles twice to get out - Comfort windows: All windows can be closed One-Touch with the wide "All-Windows" button in the driver's door. - User programmable: The module can be individually enabled or disabled. All settings are retained even if the car battery is disconnected. - Remote Fold-in Mirrors (if equipped). remoteKEY will fold in your mirrors on alarm activation. - Shop/Diagnose mode: If activated the module is completely passive, as if it was not installed at all. It becomes invisible to diagnostic tools. - End user upgradeable via integrated USB port Examples: - Setting 1 allows remote operation of the windows and the sunroof by using the original factory remote fob: Press and hold UNLOCK for 2 seconds: Open all windows - Press and hold LOCK for 2 seconds: Close all windows - Press and hold UNLOCK for 5 seconds: Open windows and sunroof - Press and hold LOCK for 5 seconds: Close windows and sunroof Remote Fold-in Mirrors For those equipped with Premium package, remoteKEY+ will fold in your mirrors on alarm activation. Feature can also be enabled with the door handle on CA-equipped models. Automatic door unlocking when ignition is turned off Enough said. Simply pull the interior door handle once to exit the vehicle. User programmable Even with the modules - not everyone is a "one size fits all" and all features may not be for everyone. The module can be individually enabled or disabled. All settings are retained even if the car battery is disconnected. Shop/Diagnose mode The module works seamlessly in the background, which is exactly what is intended. As an added precaution, Shop/Diagnose mode places remoteKEY+ into sleep mode making it completely passive, as if it was not installed at all and becoming 100% invisible to diagnostic tools. USB Upgradeable Especially useful as new features or updates are released, module does not need to be removed for upgrading - it can be performed by the end user. Best of all, remoteKEY+ can be installed in approximately 45 minutes with no coding/activation required from your dealer. For those with leased vehicles, the module can easily be removed with no trace of installation. Models Supported: 2008+ 1-series Coupe/Convertible 2006+ 3-series Coupe/Sedan (e90/e92 models only) 2007+ 3-series Convertible smartTV BMW upgraded their iDrive systems in 2009 (CIC) which allows for DVDs to be played using the in-dash DVD system.

Hi,
I just purchased and installed the smartTop and it all went very smoothly. I am very happy with it. I do have a question and a suggestion. The manual mentions a comfort access to the trunk if the top is down. You hold the open button for another 5 seconds. What does it do, and what button do I press next to reverse it? A short video showing how you program via the turn lever would be nice. Also I think you should recommend a place to mount/install the smartTop box for EASY access to update. I have mine just under the passthrough shroud, but I think I could do better.... and ideas so as I can quickly update via laptop without taking too much apart? How often have the updates been rolling out? Awesome upgrade! Kev |

FW Update
I noticed today that there was an update to the Firmware earlier this month. 2.10 has an update to 2.11. I'm pretty sure I subscribed to an email to alert for this, but I never received an email.
E93 SmarTop owners you have an update to the FW! Kev |
