Apple Car Play Coding Question: Audible Text Notification

[jmciver]

When using Apple Car Play, if you get a text, a small text notification will flash on the top of the screen for a few seconds and then disappear, going back to the iDrive full screen display you were previously using. Most of the time I see them, but sometimes I still miss them, even if I see the text notification with my periferal vision.

So my question is, is there a way to code an audible notification when a text comes in with Apple Car Play?

The only FDL's I have seen in coding are the following:

• HU_NBT_EVO > EXBOX 3001 > wert_255 = FF
• HU_NBT_EVO > SYSTEM_EINSTELLUNGEN 3004 > CARPLAY_SWT = aktiv
• HU_NBT_EVO > TELEFON_TELEMATIK_ONLINE 3003 > WLAN_DIAGNOSE = aktiv

I imagine, as a separate system, most Carplay settings are rooted in software.

Though, I would be curious if anyone has come up with any actual parameters to modify CarPlay.

What is the basic translation for what those parameters might do?

Check for presence of Carplay

Too bad, as I was hoping there was a way to code an audible notification. I figured it would be one of those things turned on in Europe, but the lawyers here in the US made them turn it off for some asinine reason (just like the anti-dazzle lights).

It is possible that there are, but I have never looked into it as I do not have apple products or Carplay.

Fair enough.... I know how to search through the CAFD files of my car offline for each of the ECUs, but admittedly would not know what to look for......
