Hi,

I just received the interface that I have bought you. :D

Now, I'm installing the unit in the car of my brother and I have a doubt. :?

From the power connector, the orange wire titled I-Drive, Where do I connect it?

To the positive pole of the battery (before or after the ignition key)? Or, In another place? ... :mrgreen:

Plaease, help me.

B.R.

Hello!

This wire is not used in your case.

To the positive pole of the battery (before or after the ignition key)? Or, In another place?

If the OEM monitor is switched on before ACC, then to the battery, if not – to АСС. Also each car has a wire where +12V appear after car alarm is switched off. However, we do not know where it is located in your car. You should find it yourself.

Hi,

I have Followed your advice and I have connected the Multimedia Interface with an Alpine front and rear camera and a Dension Gateway 500 and the Dension AVR. All system work fine. :D

I have set on the switches 1.3 and 7 in the interface so I can select Dension Alpine cameras or video output.

A last question, What is the purpose of the remote control? Only the center button and switches Operates Between of Rear AV1 video input and the input, the rest of the buttons do not Operate??? :|

Thank you very much.

Hello!

The remote control is necessary first of all for video interface setup. Further, you can operate your video interface without it.

OK. But in my car only de center buton operates; the rest of the buttons (power_on, arrows and mode) doing nothing. And the center button toggles between AVR and AV1 inputs. I can not select de setup screen.

What happens?

Do you mean the central button of the remote controller or of you car head unit? ('cause there is no "Mode" button on the remote controller from the package)

And what happens when you press "Menu" button?

If you have time, please post the picture of your remote controller.

Hello!
Sorry for delay.
Only five buttons (Ok, left, right, up, down) work for this video interface. This video interface does not have OSD menu.
