Installation guide 6. Installation of the GPS antenna G Risk of injury People with pacemakers should avoid physical contact with the magnetic antenna and should not carry the antenna on their person, as this may affect the function of the pacemaker. Keep the magnetic antenna away from data storage media (disks, credit cards, magnetic cards etc.) and electronic and precision engineering equipment, as this may cause data to be deleted. Do not use the antenna in areas at risk of explosion.
Installation guide • Inside the vehicle The antenna can only be installed on a non-metallised windscreen. When selecting the installation position, ensure that the antenna has a clear view of all directions, and that it is not covered by the windscreen wipers. Obstructions caused by the bonnet, window crossbeams and roof should be avoided as far as possible. a. Secure the antenna to the base plate (1) with magnets. b.
Installation guide GPS reception can be affected by screens with screen antenna, windscreen heating or thermally insulated screens. Some thermally insulated screens are coated with titanium or silver oxide. Installation of the GPS antenna in the vehicle interior can considerably impair the function of the navigation system. 7. Connecting the reverse signal The pick-up points for the reverse signal vary from vehicle to vehicle.
Installation guide 8. Connecting the speed signal (GAL) for the speedometer / speedometer cable G Accident hazard Incorrectly connected wiring may result in damage to or destruction of vehicle components and safety devices. If you are in any doubt, please contact your vehicle manufacturer or authorised specialist workshop. Electronic speedometer • Remove the signal from the speedometer, extend and connect to socket A pin 1.
Installation guide Mechanical speedometer with integrated speed sensor in the speedometer cable • Remove the signal from the speed sensor, extend and connect to socket A pin 1. • Minimum requirement for the signal: 0 Hz - 4 kHz / square-wave signal (no inductive sensor) Low - level < 1.5 V, high - level 5 V - 16 V GAL signal A If you do not know the exact installation position / location of the speed signal, please consult the vehicle manufacturer.
Installation guide Installing the speed sensor directly on the gearbox • Release the speedometer cable and screw speed sensor onto gearbox. Screw released speedometer cable onto the speed sensor and connect the wires.
Installation guide Recommended tool: Cable installation tool for speedometer cables from VDO, order number: 1999.10.13.000.110 If you require vehicle-specific parts, please consult the vehicle manufacturer or your nearest VDO branch. • Using a metal saw, saw into the cable approx. 1 mm at right angles to the profile and break off (Figure 3). • Then cut the cable in the centre with side-cutting pliers (Figure 4).
Installation guide • Remove grease from flex cable and connect dog to flex cable. Using a suitable installation tool, press the dog onto the flex cable (Figure 9). When pressing in, ensure that the dog is securely positioned and that it runs smoothly. • • • Pull the hose sleeve and nut as far as possible in the direction of the dog, to achieve approx. 1-2 mm play (Figure 10). Slightly squeeze the hose sleeve with pliers. Wrap with isolating tape to secure (Figure 11).
Installation guide 9. Installing and commissioning DTM • This navigation system has an integrated universal bracket for DIN installation slots. An installation frame is not required. The unit is inserted into the installation slot and secured with the slides supplied. Further information is given in the operation guide in the chapter, "Installation and removal instructions". The installation angle of the unit must not exceed -10° to 35° (vertical). • Connect the battery. 10.
Installation guide • Engage the reverse gear for the reverse signal function test. 7,,+ The arrows under 09,*;065 must change direction on engaging the reverse gear. • When using the GPS for the first time, the vehicle must be parked outdoors, while ensuring that it has a clear view in all directions (not in the immediate vicinity of buildings). Information on the GPS reception is given in the right-hand part of the display.
Installation guide • The menu for initial GPS start-up and for the sensor test is quit by simultaneously pressing the multifunction button and the multifunction button. 7,,+ 09,*;065 VMN P P P 11. Installation of the Navigation Software 1$9 • Press the button. • Insert the Navigation CD to install the software for the navigation system. • After the navigation software has been installed, the adjacent display appears. The language selection is then requested.
Installation guide 12. Calibration After commissioning, a calibration journey is required. During the journey, the speed signal (GAL) is automatically adapted to the vehicle-specific data and the gyro sensor is automatically adapted to the installation position of the unit. The distance to be covered depends on the type of vehicle and the local conditions. The navigation system is only ready for operation on completion of the calibration journey. The main navigation menu is displayed.
Installation guide If, even after a relatively long period of time, the display with the request ! ! ! does not appear, then you should check the GPS reception conditions again (as under Service Mode in the Section Function test of GPS antenna ( )46). As soon as the display with the request ! ! ! appears, the calibration ride can be started. A calibration ride can also be performed in a non-digitised area.
Installation guide • Calibration has been completed successfully if the main navigation menu is displayed. • For correct navigation on routes with time-dependent traffic guidance, the time should be set correctly as described under "System settings" in the operation guide. !Y & Y Y Y 13. Service Mode In Service Mode, various functions can be checked in detail and the calibration can be modified. • • • • Switch on the unit (see operation guide). Enter code (see operation guide).
Installation guide The following functions can be selected in the Service Mode: • - GPS function test • ! - function for deleting the calibration or for setting a calibration • ! - display for calibration ride • " ! ! - internal component test • - sensor function test • ! ! - voice test • - demo mode selection • # - the status of the Navigation CD is displayed By turning the right rotary control , select the desired entry (large letters) an
Installation guide Changing the calibration ( ! ) Deleting the calibration: If the navigation system is removed from one vehicle and installed in another, it must be calibrated. However, to do so, the current calibration data must be deleted. In the Service Mode, select ! using the right rotary control and press to confirm. Using the right rotary control select ! and press to confirm. The calibration is deleted and the unit returns to the Service Mode.
Installation guide Unit rotation corresponds to horizontal rotation. A positive value means rotation of the front of the unit towards the driver (LHD). The unit inclination can now be selected in degrees by turning the right rotary control and pressing to confirm. " ! ! Unit inclination corresponds to vertical inclination. A positive value means upward inclination of the front of the unit.
Installation guide Enter the correct tyre size using the right rotary control and confirm the entry by pressing for more than 2 seconds. "! !& P !& ' TTTFTTTFTTT The letter "R" cannot be entered. 3 numbers must be entered before and after the slashes. Insert a "0" for any missing numbers.
Installation guide Status of calibration ride ( ! ) In the Service Mode, select ! using the right rotary control and press to confirm. The calibration status (e.g. ! ! P ) and the type of positioning (e.g. ) are displayed. After completing calibration, the street in which you are currently driving is displayed (provided that it is digitised) instead of $ and #Y .
Installation guide • Engage the reverse gear for the reverse signal function test. The number after #YP should jump from • to ( to ). Drive round a bend to test the function of the internal sensors. The values after %P and &P should change. In order to quit the sensor test, press the switches back to the Service Mode. 1$9 button. The unit Testing the voice ( ! ! ) A test program is used to test the voice.
