PAC RP4-CH11 Radiopro4 Stereo Replacement Interface User Manual

1. Introdução e Características

The PAC RP4-CH11 interface allows for the seamless replacement of a factory radio in select Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep vehicles equipped with MSCAN or LSFT-CAN databus radios. This interface is designed to retain essential factory features such as steering wheel controls (SWC), vehicle entertainment system (VES), and the factory audio amplifier when the original radio is removed. It also provides data bus driven outputs including retained accessory power (RAP), vehicle speed sensor (VSS), illumination, reverse trigger, and parking brake signals.

This interface also enables programming of two radio functions to each SWC button using short press/long press dual command functionality.

2. Conexão do chicote: Make all connections as described in the wiring connection chart.
   • For vehicles without a factory amplifier: Connect the aftermarket radio's front and rear speaker wires to the vehicle connector.
   • Para veículos com fábrica amplifier: The factory amplifier only accepts two input channels (left and right). Connect the front outputs of the aftermarket radio to the rear inputs of the vehicle connector. This will allow navigation voice prompts and Bluetooth calls to be heard. The rear speaker outputs of the aftermarket radio are not used. Fading is not supported in this application. The factory amplifier's fading is controlled by data communication from the factory radio. Neither the aftermarket radio nor the RP interface has the ability to control the amplifier's fader.
3. Conexão SWC: Conecte o fio SWC de acordo com a tabela na página 1 (o rádio de reposição DEVE suportar uma entrada remota com fio).
4. Programação: If you wish to re-assign SWC functions or utilize short press/long press dual command functionality, follow the programming instructions in the "Steering Wheel Control Programming" section.

6. Programação dos controles do volante

IMPORTANTE! The interface comes pre-programmed for all of the vehicle's factory SWC functions and does not require programming unless you wish to re-assign the SWC functions or utilize short press/long press dual command functionality. The SWC can always be restored to default settings by pressing and releasinPressione o botão de programação na lateral da interface uma vez e aguarde 7 segundos até que o LED pisque 4 vezes.

Atribuições de botão SWC padrão

The default assignments are typically as follows, but may vary slightly by vehicle and radio brand:

Optional SWC Programming

If you wish to re-assign the SWC functions or utilize short press/long press dual command functionality, the interface must be programmed in the specific order shown on the chart below. If you come across a function in the chart that your steering wheel does not have, or you do not want to program, press and release the program button on the side of the interface to skip that function. The LED will flash off and on confirming that you have successfully skipped that function and are ready to proceed to the next one.

1. Gire a chave para a posição de ignição.
2. Pressione e solte o botão de programação na lateral da interface.
3. Dentro de 7 segundos, pressione o botão que deve ser aprendido no volante. O LED se apagará quando o botão for pressionado. Neste ponto você tem duas opções:
   • A. Para funcionalidade de toque curto: Solte o botão em 1.5 segundos. O LED acenderá novamente.
   • B. Para funcionalidade de toque longo: Segure o botão até que o LED comece a piscar. Solte o botão e o LED voltará a ficar sólido.
4. Se precisar programar mais botões, repita a etapa 3 para cada função de áudio adicional no volante.
5. Se você se deparar com uma função no gráfico que seu volante não possui ou não deseja programar, pressione e solte o botão de programa na lateral da interface para pular essa função.
6. Quando a programação estiver concluída, aguarde sete segundos. O LED piscará três vezes indicando o fim da programação.
7. Teste a interface para a funcionalidade adequada. Sempre que um SWC é pressionado, o LED na interface deve piscar. Se alguma função não funcionar, repita os passos de programação.

7. Testing and Verification

1. Ligue a ignição. O LED na interface acenderá e o fio acessório +12v acenderá.
2. Ligue o rádio e verifique o equilíbrio e o fade. Nota: Fábrica ampOs sistemas identificados não desaparecerão, pois nem o rádio de reposição nem a interface RP têm a capacidade de controlar o amplifier's fader.
3. Verifique se o subwoofer de fábrica (se houver) está tocando.
4. Verifique se todos os SWC estão funcionando corretamente.
5. Turn off vehicle and remove key. RAP will be active and keep the radio on for 10 minutes or until the driver's door is opened.
6. The LED and radio will turn off when RAP turns off or the driver's door is opened.

PLEASE NOTE: If after installation, the text on the driver information center has changed to German, you will need to visit a dealer and change the vehicle's country code to U.S.A.

8. Vehicle Entertainment System (VES; if equipped)

1. Vehicles equipped with a DVD player built into the rear screen assembly: The RP4-CH11 will allow the VES DVD player and rear screen to function as if the factory radio were present. A/V will be passed from the factory DVD player to the rear screen and audio can be heard through the headphones. A/V cannot be passed from the factory DVD player to the aftermarket head unit.
2. Vehicles equipped with a stand alone VES DVD Player: The RP4-CH11 will allow the VES DVD player and rear screen(s) to function as if the factory radio were present. A/V will be passed from the factory DVD player to the rear screen(s) and audio can be heard through the headphones. A/V can also be fed from the VES DVD player into an aftermarket head unit (head unit must support A/V in) with the use of the CHRYRVD (please check vehicle compatibility). It is VERY IMPORTANT that the RP4-CH11 Blue/White remote input wire be connected for this feature to function properly!
3. Vehicles not equipped with a VES DVD Player (rear screen(s) only): In this application the CHRYRVD (please check vehicle compatibility) must be used in order to feed A/V into the factory screen(s) from an aftermarket head unit (head unit must support A/V out). With the CHRYRVD, A/V will be passed from the aftermarket head unit to the rear screen(s) and audio can be heard through the headphones. If you wish to retain the Auxiliary inputs on the rear of the console you must disconnect the factory wires from the auxiliary input then connect and run your own RCAs into the aftermarket head unit.
4. Vehicles equipped with a Reverse Camera: In order to retain the factory reverse camera the CHRYRVD (please check vehicle compatibility) must be used to feed video into the aftermarket head unit (head unit must support reverse camera input).
