Requirements

Vehicle Volkswagen, Seat and Skoda

Navigation MFD3/RNS510, RNS810, Trinax or Columbus navigation

Limitations

Factory-TV-tuner Must NOT be installed.

After-market rear-view Only compatible with NTSC-cameras.
camera Automatic switching to camera from OEM mode only works

after coding the head-unit to rear-view camera per diagnosis

computer or our optional available OBD-coder OBD-MFD3-R-

xx (Only possible on MFD3/RNS510 Version B with minimum

software 1100. Contact your dealership for update to Version B).
On vehicles with OPS (optical parking system) the head-unit must
be coded to rear-view camera per diagnosis computer.

All vehicles dip 1 ON, dip 2 OFF, dip 3 OFF

Version 24.01.2012 C1-MFD3

Page5

3. Installation

Switch off ignition and disconnect the vehicle’s battery! If according to factory rules
disconnecting the battery has to be avoided, it is usually sufficient to put the vehicle in
sleep-mode. In case the sleep-mode does not show success, disconnect the battery with a
resistor lead.

Place of installation is behind the head-unit.

3.1. Interconnecting Interface-box, CAN-box and harness

Plug harness TV-VW02 into 8pin Molex of CAN-box TV-403.

Plug harness C1C-VW03 into 12pin Molex of Interface-box C1C-M03.

Version 24.01.2012 C1-MFD3

3.2. Connections to head-unit

Remove the head-unit from the dash-board.

Transfer female Quadlock connector from the back of the head-unit to male
Quadlock connector of harness TV-VW02.

Plug female Quadlock connector of TV-VW02 into male Quadlock socket of
head-unit.

Plug female 26pin AMP-connector of C1C-VW03 into male 26pin AMP-socket of

head-unit.

Note: If the 26pin AMP-socket of the head-unit is already occupied, the vehicle probably has
a factory rear-view camera or a factory TV-tuner. In case of a factory tuner, it must be
uninstalled: disconnect the female 26pin AMP-connector of the factory harness and
disconnect all wires from the factory TV-tuner. In case of a factory rear-view camera you
have ordered/received the wrong product, call for support.

3.3. Connecting peripheral devices

It is possible to connect one after-market AV-source and an after-market rear-view camera
to the c.LOGiC Interface.

Before final installation of the peripheral devices, we recommend to test-run the c.LOGiC
functions to detect incompatibility of vehicle, navigation, factory accessories or peripheral
devices as soon as possible.

Version 24.01.2012 C1-MFD3

Page7

3.3.1. AV-source

The c.LOGiC interface has the possibility to connect and remotely control by navigation
buttons one pre-programmed device. The device list in the device control table (Appendix A)
shows the pre-programmed remote channels and the related IR-remote cables STA-xxx
which must be ordered separately for the control of the device.

Using the respective STA-xxx IR-control cable, interconnect the blue female 3pin AMP
connector of harness C1C-VW03 and the IR-port of the AV-source.

Using an RCA-cable, interconnect the female RCA-port Video In of the Interface-box
C1C-M03 with the AV-output of the AV-source.

The pink ACC-output wire (+12V max 1A) of the 4pin cable can be connected to the
ACC-input wires of the connected device to switch it on. It carries +12V when the
head-unit is running.

3.3.2. Installing AV-source’s IR-sensor additionally

Additionally to the control via OEM navigation, it is possible to install the original IR-sensor
of a connected device. By using the respective Y-adapter (e.g. STA-Y35MM or STA-RJ12) for
the IR-Port of the connected device, the controls of navigation AND device’s IR-sensor can be
connected and used simultaneously. Installation of the IR-sensor is recommended as the
controls via navigation are limited, and not all functions may be covered.

Version 24.01.2012 C1-MFD3

3.3.3. After-market rear-view camera

Connect the video RCA of the after-market rear-view camera to female
RCA connector R-CAM IN of Interface-box C1C-M03.

Connect the green wire of the 4pin cable to the camera power supply (+12V max. 1A)
of the after-market rear-view camera and the grey wire to ground of the vehicle. The
green wire is high (+12V max. 1A) when reverse gear is engaged. The white wire is
not connected and has to be isolated. In some cases it is possible that the automatic
switching does not work. In this case connect the white wire to the reverse gear light
(+12V).

Note: Only compatible with NTSC-cameras.

Automatic switching on reverse gear from OEM mode to camera input only works
after coding the head-unit per diagnosis computer or our optional available OBD­coder OBD-MFD3-R-xx (Only possible on MFD3/RNS510 Version B with minimum
software 1100).

If coding is done by diagnosis PC, code rear-view camera to "LOW" in controller 56
radio (not in controller 19 - CAN gateway). After coding the vehicles needs to be
locked to reach sleep mode (30 seconds up to 66 minutes depending on vehicle).

Vehicles with OPS (optical parking system): If coding is done by diagnosis PC, code to
rear-view camera in controller 10 park assistant 2 (not in controller 19 - CAN
gateway). After coding the vehicles needs to be locked to reach sleep mode (30
seconds up to 66 minutes depending on vehicle).

4.4.2. Other remote functions

When AV1 or AV2 mode is activated, enter Senderliste
(channel list). The menu which opens offers a range of
commands for the active device.
The function description equals the remote control
buttons of the additional device. On the additional
device the writing may vary (e.g. AV instead of Source).
Select any button to execute the described function on
the active AV-source.

Note: The volume of an optional connected usbLiNK can be regulated by the right knob
(possible only in the main menu).

4.4.3. Menu/setup navigation

To navigate through menu or setup options of the
AV-source, it is necessary to see their picture/OSD,
which is not possible in the Senderliste (channel list).
Instead, after entering menu/setup, select Extras and
then V-Text.

Now menu navigation is possible by the
arrow buttons in the upper left corner
of the head-unit (left/right)
and touch-screen:
Arrow up = UP, Arrow down = DOWN
Stopp = back/return/exit
Zoom = OK/Enter
