3.1.5 Page Indicator
Since there may be many pages (up to 6) of stored
Favorites, a text indication is provided to indicate where
the current Favorites page is relative to the dynamic
total number of Favorites pages that the user has available.
The page indication is determined by the most
recently selected favorite. If this information is not available,
the favorites page view defaults to page 1.
3.1.6 Paging Through Additional Favorites
The user pages through all of their stored Favorites by
using the FAV button on the faceplate. When paging
forward and the end of the stored Favorites is reached,
a row of empty Favorites is displayed to allow the user
to save additional Favorites.
The next page forward by the user causes the list to
wrap to the beginning of the Favorites list. The user may
also set a fixed number of favorites pages to be visible
in the Settings, in which case, the favorites list will wrap
after the set favorite page number has been reached.
The favorite highlight can also be moved between favorite
pages by using the rotary menu knob.
For example, if the user rotates the menu knob, the
highlight moves from ‘Plnt Rock’ on page 1 to ‘1560’ on
page2.
Note: by using the FAV button the faceplate there is no
highlight used unless the active station is on the selected
page or a user selects a new favorite for the page in
view.
A Favorite is selected by tapping on the desired Favorite
button in the Favorites Area of the faceplate. The station
associated with that Favorite is then tuned. It is not
required to display the favorites under this scenario.
However, if the user is viewing the favorites screen and
selects a new station, the station selected is tuned and
the favorites view is still active for 5 seconds (calibrateable).
• A Favorite is selected by tapping on the desired Favorite
button in the Favorites Area of the faceplate. The station
associated with that Favorite is then tuned. It is not
required to display the favorites under this scenario.
However, if the user is viewing the favorites screen and
selects a new station, the station selected is directly tuned.
• On the Radio Now playing Mode,
If the user selects the < - > key which means preset number.
System should be tuned the preset number of
latest favorite page.
Exception > If system does not memorized the latest favorite page,
System should be tuned the preset number
of favorite 1st page by pressing the <-> Key.
Items can be stored as Favorites by press and holding for
the standard press and hold timing, on a desired Favorite
location within the Favorites region. Feedback is provided
to the user once the favorite is successfully stored
in the form of a beep.
If a Favorite already exists in this location, the new information
will overwrite the previously stored Favorite.
Performing a press and hold on the Favorites in a non-
Audio application or list view will do nothing.
If no selection is made, the favorites timeout after 5 seconds
(calibrateable). If a selection is made, the favorite
stored is highlighted and the favorites region minimizes
dismisses to the previous view after 5 seconds (calibrateable).
Users interact with Lists in a number of applications run
by the system. This section describes the major elements
and behaviors common in all Lists displayed by
the system. Elements and behaviors that are unique to
a specific application’s Lists are described in that application’s
sections in this Form and Behavior Specification.
4.1.1 List Elements
The following describes the major elements that may or
may not be displayed as part of a List, depending on the
specific application’s use of Lists.
List elements include:
• List Header
• List Items
• Scroll Bar/Position Indicator
4.1.2 List Items
Each row in a list contains the List Item (e.g., contact
name; song title). A List Item can be a single line of
text. The number of List Items displays is dependent
on the content of the list/sub-list. For example, a single
List Item may be displayed when there is only a single
Album or Song associated with the higher-level List Item
selected. Hundreds or even thousands of List Items may
be displayed when there is such content for a given list
such as All Songs from a connected device.
List Items are selectable by highlighting the desired List
Item by rotating the knob on the faceplate. Tapping the
knob when a particular List Item is highlighted displays
the associated sub-list (e.g., list of songs associated with
the album name tapped) or performs an action associated
with the List Item selected (e.g., start playback of a
song; display an edit screen for the List Item; etc.). The
4.1.3 Display of Long Text Information in List Items
When a List Item contains variable text that may be longer
than the available viewing area in a List Item, it does
the following:
• Truncation - if the text string is too long to fit with
Smart Truncation in the viewable area, the text
string is truncated and ellipses (...) are added at the
point where the text string was cut off.
4.1.4 List header Behavior
The initial view shown for a list includes the list header
which essentially defines the type of list that is being
viewed (e.g. FM Stations). This is shown regardless of
whether the list is displayed from rotating the tune knob
(for EU station lists) or from a menu button press (eg.
Artists list)
Once the user begins turning the knob to interact with
the list, the header is removed and all three available
lines are used for the list items as shown in figures 4.1.1.
and 4.1.2.
If 2 or less items are available in a list, the header will
remain visible.
The following describes the gestures that may or may
not be operationalized as part of a list, depending on
the specific application’s use of lists.
List Gestures include:
• Scroll
• Tap
• Press and Hold
4.2.1 Scroll
Users rotate the rotary-push knob on the faceplate to
scroll List Items. The highlight bar moves down when
the knob is rotated clockwise and stops moving at the
last list item displayed and then the list scrolls
begins scrolling up behind the highlight bar until the
end of the list is reached.
When the list end is reached, the last list item is displayed
at the bottom of the list and the highlight bar
moves down to the bottom. An additional rotation of
the knob in the clockwise direction wraps the list to
the beginning and the highlight bar is now shown at
the top of the list. When rotating counter-clockwise,
the highlight bar stops at the list item at the top and
the list begins scrolling down until the start of the list is
reached. When the start of the list is reached, the first
list item is displayed at the top and the highlight bar is
in the top position. An additional rotation of the knob in
the counter-clockwise direction wraps the list to the end
and the highlight bar is shown at the bottom of the list.
When reaching the end (or start) of the list while scrolling,
the highlight bar will pause for 1 sec (calibratable
between 250 msecs and 2000 msecs) ignoring additional
inputs from the rotary encoder and the system
will play an auditory alert / beep. After the pause duration
has elapsed, the system will register the next rotary
input in the same direction as the cue to animate the list
to the next page and move the highlight bar to top (or
bottom). During the list animation, any rotary encoder
inputs are ignored. When the animation is complete and
the highlight bar is positioned in its new start location,
rotary inputs are again responded to according to the
description above.
4.2.2 Tap
Users tap the rotary-push knob on the faceplate to
perform desired functions associated with the List Item
currently highlighted.
4.2.3 Press and Hold
Users can Press and Hold the rotary-push knob on the
faceplate to perform desired functions associated with
the List Item currently highlighted. Details of Press and
Hold gestures are described in the appropriate application
sections where they are used.
A Press and Hold is performed by pressing and holding
the rotary-push knob for longer than 1000-1500 ms.
The hold duration is calibratable and is defined in detail
in the application sections where such Press and Hold
gestures are enabled.
The following describes the interaction behaviors that
may or may not be operationalized as part of a given list,
depending on the specific application’s use of lists.
List Interaction Behaviors include:
• Wrapping
• List History
• List Views
4.3.1 Wrapping
Lists can wrap from start to finish or vice versa. The
method for wrapping a list is to be at the end or start of
the list and continue rotating the knob in the direction
to wrap the list past the last item (or first item) in the
list. The scroll highlight will go to the top (or bottom
depending direction of wrap) and continue scrolling.
Lists wrap only when the list is longer than what can be
displayed on the single screen (e.g., more than 3 List
Items).
4.3.2 List History
When navigating list hierarchies or navigating between
screens and lists, the system maintains a “history” of the
list position that was last displayed when the given list
was last viewed/displayed. The “List History” aids the
user in situations such as when backtracking up a station
or media search hierarchy; when returning to a station/
media list from a now playing screen; or when returning
to a Contacts List in the phone application from another
screen. The list history is cleared after ignition cycles.
The following section describes the data elements and
functions for AM/FM broadcast audio sources.
The Now Playing screens for these sources contain the data elements
dependent on the broadcast audio source.
• When the user changes Radio mode/Band by pressing the <Radio>key,
system displays radio intro view firstly as left figure.
• Frequency centered with larger font (non EU radios)
• Time of Day and Outside Temperature
- FAV Label
- [TP] icon
- Mute icon
- Driving School
(If Driving School is on,
Speed is displayed on the location/instead of outside template.)
European RDS implementations will display the station’s
PSN without the frequency information in line 1. Otherwise,
the station frequency is displayed as shown in
figure 5.2.4.
If there is more content than will fit in the line field, the
information will page a single time at a rate of 5 seconds
per field. After the pagination is completed, the first
part of the text will be shown with ellipsis as shown in
the figure.
Lines 2 and 3 are for RDS text information. RDS text is
placed on Line 2 and, if necessary, wraps to Line 3 using
the smart truncation method as defined in the DAB
source section of this document.
If text overflows the space provided in Lines 2 and 3, the
information will page (clearing Lines 2 and 3), with the
overflow text starting again in Line 2.
If an RDS text update occurs during the paging, the
fields are cleared and the new information is displayed,

The user may also press the RADIO or MEDIA buttons
on the faceplate multiple times to rotate through audio
sources. The audio source is immediately changed upon
each press of the faceplate button.
RADIO presses rotate the user through broadcast sources.
MEDIA presses rotate the user through available
media sources.
The order of rotation for broadcast sources is
AM ->FM ->DAB->AM...
The order of the media source flow is USB1->USB2->SD>BT->AUX->USB1...for 2.1F systems.
The order of the media source flow is USB -> AUX -> USB
for 2.0F systems.
When the user selects a new media source, the display
will initially show the friendly device name in the text
field as shown . After a timeout of 5 seconds (calibrateable)
the display will be updated to reflect the applicable
metadata.
In situations where there is no friendly name, the system
5.3.1 Media Source Flow - Skipping Sources With No
Device Connected Or Disc Inserted
Sources that do not have a connected device will be
skipped as users press the MEDIA button provided there
are two or more media devices connected.
5.3.2 Media Button Behavior With No Available
Media Sources
Scenarios where there is no available media present will
display the pop-up shown in Figure 5.3.4 for the base
(2.0F) system when the user selects the MEDIA button
while in broadcast source mode. The currently sourced
audio will continue to be heard while this pop-up is
displayed.
The pop-up in figure 5.3.5 is shown for the uplevel (2.1F)
system and also provides options to pair or manage
Bluetooth devices as discussed in the phone section of
5.3.3 Media Button Behavior With 1 Available Media Source
Scenarios where there is a single media source present
will display the pop-up shown in Figure 5.3.6 (or figure
5.3.7 for uplevel systems) when the user selects the MEDIA
button and is currently listening to the only media
source. The currently sourced media audio will continue
to be heard while this pop-up is displayed.
Pressing the MEDIA button from broadcast mode when
there is only 1 media source available will always take
the user to the only available media source.
If the single media source is disconnected while it is
the active screen, the screens defined in figures 5.3.8
through 5.3.10 will be shown for the appropriate source
mode. For instance, if an AUX device is ejected, the No
Device Connected screen would be displayed until the
user selects another source or inserts another device.
5.3.4 Disconnecting Active Sources
When the active media source is disconnected in situations
where there are 2 or more media sources present,
the system will display the screens shown in figures
5.3.8 through 5.3.10 and keep the user in that mode
until they reconnect.
