Video input interface for Mercedes S-Class W220 '04-'05 / CL-Class C216 '06>. This interface allows additional video inputs to the original COMAND screen; 2 Video inputs / Automatically switchable camera input / RGB Navigation input. There are also 2 video outputs and an audio output. Selection can be made by infra-red remote control or by the NAV button in the vehicle. The Remote control can also be used to adjust the picture via an on screen menu. If a camera and reverse signal wire are connected it will automatically switch when the vehicle is put into reverse gear.

The head unit shown in the installation instructions is taken from a 2006 Mercedes S-Class W220 LHD. The modification of the monitor unit will be similar in the CL-Class. During the installation it is advised that the keys are removed from the ignition, until all components are reconnected.

Disclaimer: Please observe the law in the country where this product is installed. It may be illegal for TV/DVD pictures to be in view of the driver whilst the vehicle is moving.

Interface Connections

Installation

Leave the RGB cable outside to connect to the interface.

With all connections made, securely mount the interface module and head unit back into the vehicle.

Operation

Test the unit; the 'NAV' button should now switch through the AV sources. Use the remote control to adjust pictures:

PWR: Power.
AV: Switch between: AV1/AV2/V3/RGB/MMI.
OSD: Function key to setup program and adjust picture.
SEL+/SEL-: Move between main menu and sub menu.
CON+/CON-: Select menu and change picture values.

Audio

The kit supports video input only. To input the audio an FM transmitter or modulator will be required. The interface will act as an audio switch. The output will repeat AV1 or AV2, depending on which picture is selected.
