Control modules in the MOST network
MOST network
The MOST network can consist of up to 8 different control modules.
The infotainment control module (ICM) deals with monitoring and communication on the MOST network. The infotainment control module (ICM) is in turn monitored by the central electronic module (CEM) on the CAN network.
From the Infotainment Control Module (ICM), only the Integrated Audio Module (IAM) is standard on the MOST network.
