3.3. Connections to radio module
Picture exemplary for vehicles with Quadlock connector at factory radio module.
3.3.1. Exceptional case –Vehicles with factory DSP amplifier
If the vehicle is with factory DSP amplifier, it is possible, that the CD-changer sound is not
connected to the analogue input of the radio module, but to the digital input (44.1khz) of
the factory DSP amplifier. In this case an analogue-digital converter or a digital output
(44.1khz) of the source(s) is required and this part of the manual (connection at the radio
module) can be skipped.
If the factory CD-changer is installed, it is possible to check prior to installation of the
interface whether it is connected to the factory DSP amplifier with a digital coax cable. If no
factory CD-changer is installed, it is possible to check whether the factory DSP amplifier has a
digital connector (SMB). If so, it is only possible to check whether the system is coded to
analogue or digital by try-and-error.

3.4. Connecting peripheral devices
It is possible to connect up to 2 after-market AV-sources, after-market rear-view camera and
rear-seat-entertainment to the c.LOGiC.
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.
3.4.1. AV-source(s)
The c.LOGiC interface has the possibility to connect and remotely control by navigation
buttons up to 2 pre-programmed devices. The device list in the device control table 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.

Version 10.05.2012 C2-MK-CD
Page11
Using the respective STA-xxx IR-control cable, interconnect the blue (yellow) female
3pin AMP connector of harness C3C-BMW701 and the IR-port of the AV-source 1 (AV-
source 2).
Using an RCA-cable, interconnect the female RCA-port AV1 (AV2) of the interface-box
C2C-M700 with the AV-output of the AV-source 1 (AV-source 2).
The pink ACC-output wire (+12V max. 1A) of harness C3C-BMW0x can be connected
to the ACC-input wires of the connected devices to switch it on. It carries +12V when
the navigation computer is running.
3.4.2. 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.
3.4.3. After-market rear-view camera
Connect the video RCA of the after-market rear-view camera to the female RCA
connector R-CAM IN of interface-box C2C-M700.
Connect the green wire of C3C-BMW701 to the camera power supply (+12V max. 1A)
The green wire is high (+12V) when reverse gear is engaged.
Note: BMW vehicles compatible with NTSC cameras only.

Page12
3.4.4. After-Market rear-seat-entertainment
Using RCA-cables, connect the rear-seat-entertainment to the female RCA-connector
VIDEO OUT of interface-box C2C-M700.
Note: As the output is a full output, not shared with the video signal for the
navigation system, splitting the video with an RCA Y-cable might give a good enough
picture for two rear-seat-entertainment monitors. If not, or if connecting more than
two monitors, use a video splitter.
3.5. System settings/VI SETTINGS
