Picture 3:
Because the pin connections for continuous power and
ignition are not identical across vehicle types, the flat
connectors allow the correct connections to be made.
In order to be able to use all functions of the
FastMute
Sonic XL
the unit should be connected to the
permanent plus, therefore connect the two yellow cables – the PIN 24 of the system plug with the yellow
cable of the ISO-Adapter.
Test the functionality by inserting the Navi-charger cable in the 12V-connector of the ISO-Adapter socket. The
charger cable should now be supplied with power (check the LED of the charger plug is illuminated). If the charger
has no power, then connect the Yellow cable from
FastMute
Sonic XL
(PIN 24) with the red cable of
the ISO-Adapter. Test the functionality of the Navi charger cable again.
Tip:
“Auto
Power
Function”
Simply connect the
FastMute
Sonic XL
to the Continuous plus (Picture 3) to use the Auto Power
Function. When the radio is switched on, Sound2Nav will be activated automatically. After switching off the radio
or after the last audio output, all functions remain available for about 40 minutes. After this, the
FastMute
Sonic XL
will switch into quiescent mode, which will avoid discharging the battery.
The 12V output for Navi-charger cable is also controlled by AutoPower-funktion of
FastMute
Sonic
XL
.
If
FastMute
Sonic XL
is not used in conjunction with a modern radio, then the ignition signal can be
used to activate the functionality. The switch-off delay functions in addition to the ignition signal. For this
configuration, the +12V continuous plus is connected to PIN 24 (yellow) and, in addition, the +12V ignition plus is
connected to PIN 22 (red).
Tip: “Dynamic Loudspeaker Control”
To make full use of the dynamic loudspeaker control of
FastMute
Sonic XL
, the mute signal should
NOT be connected to the radio.
Without the mute signal connected, the rear loudspeakers remain active during Navi announcements i.e. music,
news or traffic announcements continue to be heard.
During the output of MP3 audio through
FastMute
Sonic XL
the rear loudspeakers are automatically
activated
(Long-Time-Mode).
If you prefer to switch off the rear loudspeakers during Navi announcements, connect the flat connector for the
mute signal as described below on the DIN-ISO Adapter:
Connect cable white/brown (PIN 19) to cable white/brown, or
Connect cable white/brown (PIN 19) to cable white/yellow.
Some radios have a so-called “Navi-Mute-Connection“ which, during a Navi announcement, reduces the radio
volume. To use this function, you can connect the mute signal with this cable to the radio.
(Note: Observe the correct pin connection for the mute signal of the radio. The layout of radio connections can be different from the standard).
