Navigation Operating System

Any programmers on here that might have an idea what programming language the navigation software is written in? Also, how to access it? Keyboard via USB maybe? There is an access/ diagnostic port on the back I think.

If I had to guess, I'd say it's machine code inside the unit and not stored as source code.

This....

Doesn't matter what language it is written in, you're not going to find the source codes. However, if you can dump the codes and if you can figure out the address of the instructions you want to change, then you can play around with it.

Some guy from Europe was able to do that on the e46 M3. We were able to make some interesting "non factory" customization on the Nav.

As far as servicing it, it would likely be the same way when they update the maps. I recalled the M3 had a couple of OS updates on the Nav.
