IBO (Integrated Base Operations).

IBO (Integrated Base Operations) is the F-series body controller. The IBO took over some of the body-domain role from the older FRM and is the holder of cabin-filter and spark-plug CBS counters. Beemuu talks to the IBO on F-series UDS, replacing the KOMBI’s CBS role for those counters.

Overview

What the IBO controls

Cabin climate, body electronics, light control, and the CBS counters that aren’t on the DME or KOMBI. The IBO holds cabin-filter and spark-plug CBS state on F-series.

Target address

0x60 (96 decimal) on F-series UDS. Note: this is the same address as KOMBI on E-series; on F-series the address space shifted, and the IBO took over the body-domain role.

CBS counters on the IBO

Cabin filter, spark plugs. These reset via the IBO, not the KOMBI.

IBO vs BDC

The BDC (Body Domain Controller) is the G-series spiritual successor to the IBO. Same responsibilities, different firmware. On F-series LCI and G-series, the IBO role moved to the BDC.

Beemuu support

Beemuu’s F-series profiles include the IBO as a probe target. The CBS reset routines for cabin filter and spark plugs target the IBO on F-series and the BDC on G-series.
