General
With the RCS 5100 you easily can control both the Colour and Monochrome Naviga-
tion Systems as well as many audio components of VDO Dayton from the steering
wheel. The RCS 4000 is used exclusively for the Integrated Navigation Radios. You find
a list with compatible devices on the outer wrapping of the blister pack.
Function
The Steering Wheel Remote Control transmits its infrared commands in the direction
of the driver. A big part of the infrared light is reflected towards the device to be con-
trolled.
The function of the remote control can be affected more or less strongly by the follo-
wing influences:
–
mounting position of the Steering Wheel Remote Control,
–
blocking-out of the IR emitting apertures by fingers,
–
unfavourable mounting position of the infrared receiver (for example monitor
and/or radio),
–
infrared light absorptive clothing of the driver (bad reflection of the infrared light),
–
sitting position of the driver,
–
design and material of the vehicle interior (in particular the panelling),
–
light and/or strong solar radiation (particularly at convertibles),
–
shading of the IR link through hands, arms, legs (for example if the device to be
controlled is built-in very deeply in the dashboard) or other objects.
