Coding of interior lighting zones

General information

For help in creating this manual, I express my gratitude to Vyacheslav

List of designation of brightness adjustment zones

innenlicht – interior lighting
fussraum – legs
tueren – door
cockpit – front panel (wireless charging niche) miko – center console
dach – cover

List of existing lanterns

Ambiente_Applikationsleisten_in_Tuertafel – door panel lighting Ambiente_Lautsprecher – speaker lighting
Ambiente_Applikationsleisten_in_Instrumententafel – illumination of the wireless charging niche
Cockpitbeleuchtung – front console lighting
Mittelkonsolenbeleuchtung – illumination of the wireless charging niche
Dachbeleuchtung – roof lighting
Panoramaschiebedachbeleuchtung – panorama illumination
Fussraumbeleuchtung – foot lighting

These encodings are only possible via OBD11 or ODIS

To install additional interior lighting lamps, you need to perform several steps:  
- install the lantern, hang it on a free lantern
- activate the flashlight  
- set brightness

Drawing "suns" in the Aesthetic lighting menu

Doesn't work with composition color (it doesn't have visualization of zones, its zones are a list).
This encoding is only possible via OBD11 or ODIS

This coding is relevant for those who only have foot lighting from the factory, and no aesthetic lighting.
Often in this case, when the aesthetic lighting is activated, the ability to adjust the leg lighting zone disappears, namely the same sun and visualization of this backlight.

In addition, this information will be useful for those who have installed additional backlight lamps, or just is going to do it.

3 adaptation parameters are responsible for activating additional zones in the Aesthetic lighting menu in block 9 Lighting salon, parameters / Interior_light_parameter

- p_ambientelicht_verbauinformation_HMI
Bit Description
0 Foot lighting (visualization of foot lights)*
1 Leg lighting (no rendering)
2 Front panel lighting (strip visualization)*
3 Empty
4 Center console (without visualization)
5 Front panel lighting (without visualization)
6 Front panel lighting (without visualization)
7 Front panel lighting (without visualization)

1 Center console (without visualization)
2 Door lighting (visualization of handle lights)*

5 Door lighting (without visualization)
6 Door lighting (without visualization)
7 Door lighting (without visualization)

Installing the flashlight on a free channel

To connect the diodes, you need to find free pins on the VSM. It depends on the configuration.
Then the corresponding free channel is searched, for example, MID LED owners can connect a lamp to pin 36,
and then set to configure a free channel in Leuchte0BLK VLB36 encodings and register a diode and function in it.

Possible functions:

Function Description
Ambientelicht 1 Sunshine over the glove compartment
Ambientelicht 2 Sunshine over the glove compartment
Ambientelicht 3 Sunshine doors
Ambientelicht 4 Empty
Ambientelicht 5 Empty
Lasttyp 0 — LED Kleinleistung
Lichtfunktion A 0 – Ambientelicht 1
Dimmwert AB 0 — 99

Activating the flashlight

If some “sun” does not appear after switching on, then you need to activate the flashlight itself.
For example, activating the foot light:

Setting the backlight brightness

The following parameters are responsible for the brightness values of a particular flashlight in block 9:

Delay for turning on interior lighting

The encodings in block 9 make it possible to sequentially turn on the lights in the cabin.

The following parameters are responsible for this:

Login code: 31347
Block 09 → Adaptation:
Interior_light_parameter:
- p_t verzoegerung einstieg innenlicht - delay in turning on the interior lighting at the entrance, ignition off
- p_t verzoegerung ausstieg innenlicht - delay in turning on the interior lighting when exiting, ignition off
- p_t verzoegerung oeffnen innenlicht - delay in turning on the interior lighting when the door is opened, the ignition is on
- p_t verzoegerung entriegelt innenlicht - delay in turning on the interior lighting when unlocking the central locking
- p_t verzoegerung schliessen innenlicht - delay in turning off the interior lighting when the door is closed, the ignition is on
- p_t verzoegerung schluessel ab innenlicht - delay in turning off the interior lighting when the ignition is turned on
- p_t verzoegerung verriegelt innenlicht - delay in turning off the interior lighting when the central locking is locked

For example,

We set the switching on for the door lamps to 0.8s, and to 1.6s for the interior lights.
The foot lights remain the same and light up first, then the doors, then the ceiling. The light from the interior lighting goes out first. Then the doors and then just the legs.

We also set the switch-off for the doors to 0.8s, and for the legs we set it to 1.6s. The light from the interior lighting goes out first. Then the doors and then just the legs.
