Topic: B7 rs4 wont communicate

As the title States I received my FIS control for my B7 RS4 I plugged everything accordingly my original adaption value was 23    I set it to 15  with no luck I also was able to pair with Bluetooth   my car has navigation as well as telephone what should my coding be?  I'm not able to get it to boot up when I hold the upper button

Re: B7 rs4 wont communicate

Maybe the FIS-Control is stuck in software loading mode. Could you please connect the Android app (that is available in the Download section of my website) to the FIS-Control. If you see the letter C arriving once per second in the text field of the app, the FIS-Control is in software loading mode.
In order to make it operational again, you first have to send a valid firmware file.

Re: B7 rs4 wont communicate

You are correct there are C's in that screen    which firmware file should I load also what's the best coding?

Re: B7 rs4 wont communicate

I loaded the latest firmware file from your website the C are gone now

Re: B7 rs4 wont communicate

Ok, now you just need to set the correct coding for the FIS-Control and the cluster:
- Press and hold the down button at the side of the wiper stalk and tunr on the ignition.
- Connect the FIS-Control app to the FIS-Control
- Select "Firmware version" and click SEND
-> You should see the date of the current firmware in the text field of the app
- Select "Cluster: CAN Telematics" and click SEND
- Select "FIS-Control: Telematics / 3LB" and click SEND.

Now restart the ignition (without holding any button). FIS-Control should appear now, when you do a long press (about 2 seconds) on the up key.

Re: B7 rs4 wont communicate

Thank you what should my instrument cluster adoption value be if I want to have full screen?

Re: B7 rs4 wont communicate

Adoption value "15" is correct.

Re: B7 rs4 wont communicate

It doesn't appear to be overriding the top part of my screen though it flickers between FIS control and phone

Re: B7 rs4 wont communicate

Also are you able to use the mode button on the steering wheel to activate and the thumb wheel to navigate    can this be added?

Re: B7 rs4 wont communicate

As you have installed a radio and also phone, the upper part of the screen is already occupied and not usable by the FIS-Control.
To avoid the flickerung, go to SETTINGS -> HEADLINE and select RADIO.

Are the steering wheel button free to use, or do they also control other stuff? I could make the FIS-Control respond to the buttons, but I can not prevent the buttons from doing their intended functions.

Re: B7 rs4 wont communicate

That would be good for me as I don't use my radio controls on my steering wheel very much    how   I would like my mode button to serve as of my select and my left thumb wheel to use for navigating through the menu

Re: B7 rs4 wont communicate

Is this something you can do for me ?

Re: B7 rs4 wont communicate

Maybe the steering wheel controls I don't require but is it possible to have  fis control active once the ignition is turned on

Re: B7 rs4 wont communicate

I think I can add support for the steering wheel control.
And yes, it is possible to have the FIS-Control automatically active either when turning on the ignition or when starting the engine.

For start on ignition:
- Enable SETTINGS -> USER MODS -> HRDINA

For start with engine:
- Enable SETTINGS -> USER MODS -> RPM CAN
- Enable SETTINGS -> AUTOSTART -> ENGINE
