Piconets are established dynamically and automatically as Bluetooth enabled devices enter and leave radio proximity.
Audio Technologies Object Push Profile (OPP) OPP defines the roles of push server and push client. It’s called push because the transfers are always instigated by the sender (client), not the receiver (server). OPP focuses on a narrow range of object formats to maximize interoperability. The most common acceptable format is the vCard. OPP may also be used for sending objects such as pictures or appointment details.

Audio Technologies Rounding off Clarion’s 2010 navigation ready multimedia control stations are the VX400 (6.5” double-DIN) and VZ400 (7” single-DIN). Both of these multimedia control stations are compatible with Clarion’s NP400, black box navigation add-on system.
Audio Technologies Compressed Media Format Transmitting audio and data via satellite spawned the need to create various formats of media compression. These formats allow multiple signals to occupy the same bandwidth as an uncommonly compressed signal. This increased efficiency, reduces cost and allows more data to be transmitted at higher speeds. Clarion is at the forefront of compressed media file playback.
Audio Technologies Signal Processing Clarion products remain at the forefront of sound quality and performance. Our source units have features that allow your mobile audio system to recreate sound that is closer to the original recording than ever before. These features included advanced signal restoration for compressed audio, digital equalization, advanced D/A converters and digital storage systems. Clarion calls the concept of remaining true to the original audio recording Sound Genesis.
Audio Technologies Z-Enhancer Plus Making system tuning as easy as possible is one thing Clarion prides themselves on with Z-Enhancer Plus. Z-Enhancer Plus incorporates three preset equalization curves, each with an adjustable effect level. In Custom Mode, you are given control over Bass Gain (-7 to +7), Bass Frequency (60, 80, 100, or 200Hz), and Bass Q-Factor (1, 1.25, 1.5, or 2). For high frequency adjustment, you can adjust gain (-7 to +7) and center frequency (10, 12, 15, or 17.5kHz).
Audio Technologies Electronic Crossovers Electronic crossovers are designed to pass only a certain range of frequencies through a circuit. There are two types of electronic crossovers: High-Pass and Low-Pass Bass: Boost: -12 to +12dB Q-Factor: 1, 1.25, 1.5, or 2 Frequency: 50,100, or 200Hz Mid: Boost: -12 to +12dB Q-Factor: 1.
Audio Technologies Digital to Analog Converters Converting digitally stored information (such as that found on a Compact Disc or DVD) back into an analog signal is the job of the D/A converter. The D/A converter reads each 16-bit word from the disc and assigns it an analog voltage. A conventional D/A converter repeats this task 44,100 times a second.
Audio Technologies CEA-2006 Ratings Instant Station Recall (ISR) All new Clarion amplified products have been rated using the CEA-2006 specification. This specification was created to allow power production numbers to be compared between one brand and another brand without concern for measurement type. Getting to where you want to go should always be as easy as simply pressing a button. When it comes to your favorite radio station, ISR has you covered.
Audio Technology LCD Display Resolution Clarion’s in-dash liquid crystal displays feature a screen resolution of 1440 X 234 pixels for a total of 336,960 pixels. Some companies try and confuse you by describing the number of picture elements - each of the red, green, and blue picture elements. By their standards, these units would have 1,010,880 picture elements. When comparing video displays, make sure the specifications you are comparing are using the same format. H.M.I.
Audio Technologies ISO Mounting Capability A product designed for easy installation makes sense, not only for the staff performing the installation, but for the end user as well. When a radio looks like it belongs in the dash, all the experiences surrounding its operation just seem better. Clarion’s single-DIN and double-DIN source units are capable of being installed in ISO mount fashion.
