I guess i was playing with some settings under Engineering menu of COMAND, and now when trying to put some new songs on a memory card, I found directories created in the root of the CF card (memory card), named in Data format (as YYYYMMDD - i.e. 20090427) with files having DAT extension inside of these folders, some of them are substantial in size (up to 60-80 MB). Could be data files coming from navigation, or historical data about trip.... Anyone has a clue? How to get any useful information out of these files??
Sorry if this subject has been covered elsewhere, I am quite new to this site. Did search - did not find anything close to that.

C class 280 (or 300, as called in the USA), with 7 gear AT and COMMAND with navigation. No updates of soft has been performed. Guess European soft is installed, as car is in Europe.

Thanks for any tips on that matter

My suggestion would be to insert the card in a PC and open those files with a text editor capable of handling such file sizes without freezing your PC. Than look inside for any text strings for clues.

Can't try it myself since I don't have the PCMCIA adapter.
