Tom, is this the same unit as Dension offered for a while now ? I checked my Dension price list, and there is an AUX selector on there for 49 euro.....

This is not a Dension piece. Dension is still in development of their AUX3 kit (not a source selector).

That is a nice feature. How do we select the source ipod or cd? For example I am listening to a CD from the changer and want to switch the ipod.

The Video Source Module looks for a ground for a trigger source to activate that specific video input. This can be routed to an external switch or the e-brake, your choice.

For liability purposes - we recommend the emergency brake.

I think you answered for the Video source module (other thread) and not the audio source module but I assume it is the same idea. Basically to activate either CD or IPOD input i just have to add a switch which will ground either the CD or IPOD source, right?
I have DSP and CD changer can you please PM the different parts that I would need to purchase to make it work?
Thanks

Audio can be switched by moving to AUX mode. Video will need the ground connected either through a switch or eBrake.

The kit is the same for DSP or non DSP vehicles, AUX is always an analog signal.

Hello Tom,

Can you please take me step by step through it:

Let us say,I am listening to the cd changer and the ipod is plugged in, how can I switch between them (will there be a new AUX mode on the NAV screen???)

Thanks,

Ghani

This is essentially a switching device, no additional mode is granted in the system. an external switch is mounted (in the cargo area or otherwise) and this will switch between the CD Changer or ice>Link.

This makes it MUCH easier to retain both devices without the need for remove the cabling from one device and connecting to the next.

Ok,

any pictures of the switch?

Thanks,
