The AIO-5 Play for BMW is specifically designed for motorcycles equipped with a BMW Navigator mount and preparation. The device connects directly to the Navigator mount and is powered by your BMW's electrical system.
There is quite a bit of confusion regarding the compatibility of the Chigee AIO5 Play due to the new BMW version. Below, we try to explain how it works.
BMW's with a 3-pin navigation interface but without a Navigator?
If your BMW has a 3-pin navigation plug but no Navigator mount, you can still make your motorcycle compatible with the AIO-5 Play BMW version. Simply install a BMW navigation mount yourself (available from BMW). This addition ensures that the AIO-5 Play seamlessly integrates with your motorcycle and offers all functions.
- Locate your motorcycle's navigation cable (3-pin plug)
- Connect the BMW Navigator mount to it (can be ordered from BMW)
Reading tire pressure data: If your BMW has a factory-installed TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System), CHIGEE can directly read your TPMS data. If your BMW does not have a factory-installed TPMS, consider purchasing the CHIGEE TPMS.
Perfect compatibility: CHIGEE devices seamlessly integrate with BMWs, providing access to native data and control via the Wonder Wheel. Make sure you have "NAV" selected on your BMW TFT/analog screen.
Not supported: BMW's native data is accessible, but Wonder Wheel control requires a software update or the purchase of CGRC CAN. We have found that some models do not support software updates from BMW. Please refer to the compatibility chart for more information.
- Without Wonder Wheel: For BMWs without a Wonder Wheel, we recommend the Chigee wireless remote control.
- CGRC CAN required for Wonder Wheel control (native data can be read): For RT/K-series with mechanical instruments, you can purchase the CGRC CAN for control. (2011-2021 K1600-series / R1200 RT / 2016-2017 R1200 R)
- Wonder Wheel control is not available (native data can be read): For RT/K-series with TFT instruments, Wonder Wheel control is not available—consider the Chigee wireless remote control instead. (2021-2023 R1250 RT & 2022-2023 K1600 models & 2022-2023 K1600B)
Compatibility chart:
- BMW Native control (You don't need anything else).
- CGRC CAN / CGRC Pro (you need an additional Chigee module)
- Navigation software X (You cannot select the navigation in your display)
