Shared Modes
The VES™ and radio are capable of communi-
cating with each other. This allows the VES™ to
output radio audio to the headphones and the
radio to output VES™ audio to the vehicle
speakers. When the radio and VES™ are in the
same (shared) mode, a VES™ icon will be
visible on the radio’s display and the shared
icon will be visible on the VES™ screen. When
in shared mode, the same audio source is
heard in the headphones and vehicle speakers
simultaneously.
If the radio functions (FM, AM, or SAT) are in the
shared mode with the VES™, only the radio is
able to control the radio functions. In this case,
VES™ can share the radio mode, but not
change stations until the radio mode is changed
to a mode that is different from the VES™
selected radio mode. When shared, the radio
has priority over the VES™ or all radio modes
(FM, AM, and SAT). The VES™ has the ability
to switch tuner (AM/FM/MW/LW), SEEK, TUNE,
and recall presets in radio modes as long as it is
not in shared mode.
When in shared disc or satellite video mode
both the radio and the VES™ have control of
the video functions. The VES™ has the ability to
control the following video modes:
1. CD: Ability to Fast Forward, Rewind, and
Track Up/Down.
2. CD Changer (in radio): Ability to Disk Up/
Down and program all listed CD controls (Fast
Forward, Rewind, and Track Up/Down).
The VES™ can even control radio modes or video
modes while the radio is turned off. The VES™
can access the radio modes or disc modes by
navigating to those modes on the VES™ and
activating a radio mode or disc mode.
Information Mode Display
When information mode is active, the current
mode setting for both audio channels is dis-
played. In addition to the items called out by
number, the remaining information displays the
current status of the source (such as station
frequency, name, preset or track number, song
title, artist name, album name, etc.).
1. Channel 1 Mode – Displays the current
source for Channel 1.
