The BMW data shown on a CHIGEE Display depends on what your motorcycle transmits through the supported BMW interface, which sensors are fitted and which CHIGEE model you use. Some readings may be unavailable, and some data is recorded for video playback rather than shown live on the riding dashboard.
Understand which BMW data can appear
The CHIGEE Display can show only data provided by your motorcycle through the connected interface. A missing value does not automatically mean the display is faulty. Available data can vary by BMW model, model year, sensors and factory configuration.
Why lean angle or other readings may be missing
The AIO-6 Max and AIO-6 LTE include a built-in tilt angle sensor. Other CHIGEE Display models do not have a built-in lean angle sensor, so they can show lean angle only if the motorcycle transmits it through the supported interface.
Some BMW motorcycles do not have the relevant sensor, or do not transmit certain data through the Nav interface. The current source article lists the 2013 and 2016 BMW R1200GS and R1200GS Adventure as examples where some readings may be unavailable; other models may also be affected.
Why the AIO-6 does not show brake or turn-signal icons while riding
On supported AIO-6 setups, brake-light and turn-signal data may be captured in the background and added to recorded video. These icons do not appear on the live riding dashboard or real-time camera preview. To review them, play the full recording in the CHIGEE GO App or view the downloaded video, provided your motorcycle and connection method transmit those signals and compatible cameras are installed.
Understand specific dashboard readings
Why BMW Nav Prep speed readings show only even numbers
The current speed article states that BMW Nav Prep supplies speed values in a format that the CHIGEE Display doubles, which can result in even-numbered readings only. The article describes this behavior as a limitation of the BMW Nav Prep data format. Standard AIO-5 Lite and AIO-5 Play models use other speed-data sources and are not affected in the same way.
Why the Professional Dashboard RPM bar stops at 8,000
The Professional Dashboard RPM bar is scaled to 8,000 RPM. If the engine exceeds that value, the numerical RPM reading can continue to increase while the bar or needle animation remains at its maximum. The current source article says there is no option to extend the bar scale to 12,000 RPM.
What to check when data is missing
Confirm that your BMW model, model year and factory equipment support the data you expect to see.
Check that the display is seated correctly in a genuine, compatible BMW Nav Prep cradle or that the supported accessory connection is installed correctly.
For data that has a selectable source, check the relevant source setting on the CHIGEE Display.
If the issue continues, record which values appear and which are missing, along with your BMW model and year, CHIGEE Display model, connection method and firmware version.
Do not assume that every missing reading can be enabled through a setting. The motorcycle must provide the data through the connected interface.
FAQs
Does a missing BMW reading always mean the CHIGEE Display is faulty?
No. Missing readings can be caused by unavailable sensors, motorcycle configuration or data that is not transmitted through the supported BMW interface.
Why are brake and turn-signal icons missing from the live AIO-6 dashboard?
On supported setups, this data is recorded for video playback rather than shown as live dashboard icons. Review the full recording in the CHIGEE GO App or the downloaded video.
Can the Professional Dashboard RPM bar be extended beyond 8,000 RPM?
The current source article states that the bar scale cannot be changed to 12,000 RPM. The numerical RPM value can still increase above 8,000.
