Hi everyone! This is my first post since joining mbworld and after getting my first Mercedes!
While test driving the E class a few months ago I was able to scroll down and select the full screen option while in the navigation menu of the instrument cluster. I really liked this view since it mirrors the Audi Virtual cockpit, minus the google street view, of course.
For some reason this is not showing up as an option on my car. I’m only seeing two options when I use the selector button on the steering wheel, for the mini map mode and the recent destination tab. I’ve attached photos from the test drive car, and from my own. Already tried hard resetting the MBUX system. Interestingly I’m able to use the full screen mode in other modes such as in assistance or trip.
From the test drive car.
From my car. Only seeing two options without the full screen option
Check your build sheet for code 549 - MBUX Headunit High.
There's 3 tiers of MBUX: Low, Mid, High
Full screen nav only works with High. Only surefire way to ensure your car gets it is to option the AR navigation.
Thanks! I actually managed to snag a build sheet for both cars. Mine doesn't list code 549, while the previous car I drove, did. Kind of thought, the AR nav was unnecessary for me, but now kinda of wish I had ordered it. Oh well, still really happy with the car!

Yeah they don't make that clear unfortunately.
You probably have 548 (Mid) or 545 (Low).

Odd that they chose to vary the head units. I have a 2021 on order. I did not order AR, but my build list has both codes 548 and 549 on the sheet. Would it be safe to assume that that I have the “high” version?

What's the name that shows on the sheet for them? Odd to have both.

The first page of my configuration printout has all of the options. On the second page is where the standard accessories are referenced. It’s on this page that “548 MBUX Multimedia System” is listed with below “549 MBUX Multimedia High” immediately below that.

Weird. Maybe after production / closer to when you get it the sheet will refresh.
OP - did you ever figure out what happened with the full screen display? I had the exact same experience where the sales guy demonstrated this feature but a week after I purchase the car (2021 GLE 350) I tried getting the full screen navigation to show up but it wasn't there anymore. I only get two red dots instead of three when I pull up the navigation menu in the center section.
Mbux 549 and different nvidia SOC USED ( as I know)

Heres some links allowed me piece together which mbux used which SOC (system on chip) https://technical-news.net/mercedes-...-soc1613838197 https://www.techspot.com/news/66057-...-vehicles.html https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/self-dr...form/hardware/ Nvidia SOC differences
I'm thinking MBUX548 uses Reilly Px while MBUX 549 USES PARKER 128 both from Nvidia
here's a good paragraph
"In terms of computing power, Mercedes-Benz is once again lagging behind the MBUX of the 2nd generation of the current S-Class. Where the A-Class still used Nvidia’s “Reilly PX” and “Parker 128” as versions of the Tegra X2, the S-Class uses a Xavier-SoC with six Carmel CPU cores, Volta graphics unit and 16 GB of RAM . The MBUX Hyperscreen in the EQS uses the Xavier full expansion with eight Carmel CPU cores and more powerful Volta GPU, which comes in 512 instead of 384 CUDA cores distributed over four TPCs. In addition, Mercedes-Benz has expanded the working memory from 16 to 24 GB. ComputerBase has obtained information about this article from Mercedes-Benz under NDA. The only provision was the earliest possible publication date. "
BTW Xavier or Pegasus is where it's at as u can ugrade hardware like it was pc or its supposed be fro. My understanding. It's possible Xavier is also upgradable as they upgraded ram wonder if person wanted add faster more if they could.. anyone know I need a sdk developer expert that wouldn't be I. Breach contract by discussing this that last part will be tough as this is the cutting edge future and companies tend to protect it with NDA etc or whatever they call
Camera ,Radar,lidar and gnss/imu upgrades for model S class or EQS with Xavier SOC
I recently gave link on SPEC DIFFERENCES OF NVIDIA SOCS USED BY BENZ NOW AND IN FUTURE
BBUT FORGET ADD LINK FOR THE MODULES CAMERAS, LIDAR ETC THAT ARE COMPATIBLE IN CAR ONE WANTED UPGRADE GET HIGHER RESOLUTION ALTHOUGH I THINK SOFTWARE WOULD NEED BE PROBABLY CHANGED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT S HIGH ER RESOLUTION MAYBE NOT.
Here's link https://developer.nvidia.com/drive/ecosystem-hw-sw
This includes cameras, lidar, radar and GNSS / IMU Devices as well as hardware accessories.
