Media Gateway & Optional Add-ons

1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the iSimple® Media Gateway. The Media Gateway is
designed to provide endless hours of listening pleasure from your factory radio.
To ensure that your SCC1 satellite radio tuner performs correctly with your radio,
we recommend that you read this entire manual before attempting installation of
the Media Gateway.
The Media Gateway allows connectivity for Sirius Satellite Radio tuner (SCC1
sold seperately), enabling full control of this device from the factory installed
radio. It also retains original system features such as rear seat entertainment (if
equipped).
2. Precautions
PREVENTING DAMAGE TO YOUR VEHICLE
Some installations require you to make wiring connections. To eliminate the risk of an
electrical short, we recommend disconnecting the vehicle’s battery prior to installation.
If you do not feel comfortable making these connections, we suggest you seek
professional installation.
PROPER MOUNTING LOCATION
Securely install the interface in a location free from: heat, humidity, moving parts, sharp
metal edges or direct sunlight. We recommend securing the interface to a suitable
location using: double sided tape, VelcroTM or zip-ties.
3. Compatibility Notes
Your vehicle MUST either be equipped with, or have the ability to support
Satellite Radio. Please visit www.isimplesolutions.comfor the most up to
date compatibility information and to verify your vehicles compatibility.

5. Installation
1. When making electrical connections it is always recommended that the
vehicle’s battery be disconnected from the electrical system before performing
the installation.
2. Carefully remove the trim panels covering the bolts that secure the radio into
the dash cavity. Remove these bolts, and carefully pull the radio from the dash of
the vehicle. This will provide access to the factory radio connectors where you will
connect the Media Gateway harness.
3. Disconnect the factory 20-Pin and 12-Pin harnesses from the back of the radio.
4. When connecting the Satellite Radio tuner (SCC1 sold separartely), make the
folllowing connections before connecting the PXAMG to the vehicle. Plug the black
end of the 3 foot PXAMGSR (8-Pin mini-din to 8-Pin mini-din) into the second port
(closest to the dipswitches) on the Media Gateway. Connect the gray end of this cable
into the Satellite Radio tuner.
5. When connecting the auxiliary cable, plug the 8 pin mini-din into the port farthest
from the dipswitches. Carefully run the auxiliary cable to the location where the
auxiliary device will be stored. If you are using the RCA input it may be necessary to
run the auxiliary device’s output cable to the PXAMG location.
6. Plug in the male connectors on the PGHNI2 harness into the 20-pin and 12pin ports on the back of the radio. Next, connect the factory 20-pin and 12-pin
harnesses into the female connectors on the PGHNI2 harness. Be sure to make a
rm connection but do not force it. Plug the Black micro-t 24-pin connector on the
PGHNI2 harness into the PXAMG Media Gateway box.
7. To complete the installation secure the Media Gateway (PXAMG) and Satellite
Radio tuner (SCC1) into the cavity in the dash behind the radio. Be sure that the
cables and interface modules are not near moving parts or sharp metal edges as they
may damage the cables. To prevent rattling noises inside the dash use zip ties, tape
or other fasteners to mount the interfaces securely .
8. With all connections made, reconnect the vehicle’s battery, insert the key into the
ignition, and turn the vehicle on. Check for proper operation of the Media Gateway
and Satellite Radio tuner before reinstalling the factory dash panels.
9. Note: The rst time you access the Media Gateway, your radio may display “DEV
INIT” while the device is initializing. If this is displayed, please wait one minute then
cycle the ignition off and on. Then access SAT mode again to begin normal gateway
operation.
