Welcome

CIOtv by Winegard is a Multi-Standard Entertainment System specifically designed to OEM automotive standards. Designed to OEM standards means that CIOtv is built to the same quality standards as a new car and adheres to all of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) as mandated by the National Transportation Safety Administration.

While your entertainment experience is important, the safety of your passengers and family is our first priority. Please read the owners manual thoroughly and take special note of all safety precautions noted by the following symbol:

Failure to follow operating instructions and safety precautions could result in personal injury and damage to your CIOtv system. Before you get started, please review the following operating precautions:

• CIOtv is designed for passenger entertainment. Avoid driver distraction.

Do not operate or view CIOtv while driving.

• CIOtv is designed to provide sound through your factory sound system or wireless headphones. Always

keep sound volume at levels where you can hear outside sounds such as emergency vehicles and never wear wireless headphones while driving.

SAFETY PRECAUTION

• If you remove or dismount your CIOtv from the provided headrest mounting system (AutoMount), always

remove and stow the bracket assembly. A warning label is provided in two locations on the headrest bracket assembly. Failure to do so may result in head injury.

• Make sure children are securely “belted in” while viewing CIOtv. While CIOtv is equipped with convenient

touchscreen controls, smaller children may not be able to reach the screen. A remote control is provided for remote operation.

• To avoid draining your vehicle’s battery, DO NOT operate CIOtv for more than 15 minutes without running the

What is Mobile Digital TV ?

CIOtv is equipped with the latest in digital television technology. Just like your home television, your CIOtv

television experience is digital. But that’s where the comparison stops. The CIOtv receiver can operate while

you or your vehicle is in motion.

The all new digital TV technology known as MDTV or ATSC-MH (mobile handheld) receives live TV from your

local TV station at no additional cost. It’s free. TV anywhere….anytime. NOTE: MDTV is not available in all local

channel areas.

TV stations in major markets are in the process of adding Mobile Digital TV to their regular broadcast offerings.

You’ll find that many stations have multiple MDTV channels with a variety of programming ranging from regular

network simulcast of your favorite programs to live, 24 hour news/weather, emergency reports, traffic and business programming.

One thing to keep in mind is that MDTV is “true” broadcast TV and subject to a variety of environmental

conditions and terrain features such as severe weather, tall trees, hills and valleys. Under ideal conditions you can expect good TV reception up to 30 or even 40 miles from the broadcast tower.

To find local ATSC-MH broadcast channels, use the channel scan feature on your CIOtv or go to www.omvcsignalmap.com for an up-to-date listing of available MDTV stations and channels in your area. Additional information on MDTV is available at www.openmobilevideo.com/about-mobile-dtv/mobile-dtv-101/ .

Getting Started

Software Updates: CIOtv is an entertainment computer that depends on complex software to run and process the available audio and video options. To insure that you have the latest CIOtv software, refer to Setup/ System Information from the CIOtv Home Screen. Check the Firmware version against the latest version at www.winegard.com/ciotv

If the Firmware version is different, you will want to update your CIOtv firmware. This will take a few minutes and will require an SD media storage card with sufficient capacity (at least 256Mbytes).

If the Firmware version is not current, please update using the following method:

1. Copy latest firmware version from the Winegard website to your SD card at the top level directory (i.e. not in a sub directory).

2. Insert SD card into CIOtv – then turn power on (wait for screen to appear that says CIO update - DO NOT REMOVE SD CARD OR POWER DOWN DURING THE ENTIRE UPDATE PROCESS).

3. Before timer count expires, press DVD eject button to start the firmware update. The status of the CIO FW update will appear.

4. You should see the first step of the update process, which is the file being transferred from the SD card to the CIO. This will progress from 0% to 100%.

5. The second and last step of the update process is the programming of the CIOtv internal memory with the data from the file that was loaded to the CIOtv in the first step. This will progress from the 0% to 100%.

6. When the update is complete, the screen will say “CIO update complete”.

7. Remove SD card and reboot the CIOtv unit using the power button.

Power Up: CIOtv can be operated while mounted in your car on the CIOtv AutoMount bracket or as a hand-held device. When mounted in your car, you can either turn on your engine or accessory power to provide power to CIOtv. When hand-held, you have three power options: 1. Connect to power via the supplied CLA Power Cable (C-2535). Insert the power connector into the DC Power In jack on the left side of your CIOtv, then insert the CLA plug into your cigarette lighter receptacle. 2. Connect to power via the optional CIOtv 14V AC/DC Converter (C-2520) or 3. Connect to power via the optional Battery Pack (C-2401).

Touchscreen Controls

Touchscreen Controls: CIOtv is controlled by state of the art Projected Capacitance Touchscreen technology.

It’s easy to use - simply touch, slide or tap the screen for adjustment or control.

Is your CIOtv installed in your car? If your CIOtv system has been professionally installed by your car dealer, please use the following steps to get started.

1. If installed in your vehicle, turn vehicle ignition to ACC (accessory) or Start the engine. CIOtv will operate in the ACC position but may deplete your vehicle battery unless the engine is running.

2. Press the POWER button on the upper top left corner of CIOtv. The Winegard logo will briefly appear and the CIOtv Home Screen will start. This should take about 20-25 seconds. You are now ready to operate your CIOtv. To shut off power, press the power button again. Note: When power is available to CIOtv, the POWER button will softly glow in the power-off mode. When the POWER button is activated and CIOtv is running, the POWER button will increase in brightness indicating power-on.

Note: Do not touch the CIOtv touchscreen during the boot up process as the screen calibration may be affected. If your CIOtv

touchscreen controls fail to operate properly, shut the system down and reboot without touching the screen.

3. Next select your audio option. You can do this through either the Setup Menu or via the icons at the top of the CIOtv Home Screen.

• For External Audio through your car factory sound

system, touch the FMM icon on the CIOtv Home Screen.

Select “Enable FMM” and select an FM frequency from

the available frequency drop down list (select a frequency that is not already being used by a local broadcast). Select Done.

• For Wireless Headphones touch the headphones icon

at the top of CIOtv Home Screen. Select Channel A or B. Select Done. On your wireless headphone set select either channel A or B to match the selection you just made on the CIOtv Home Screen. Note - If you have two CIOtv units mounted in your car, the A or B channel selection allows viewers to make independent separate audio output selections.
