PXDP Interface

Chapter 1- Getting Started

1.1 Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the PXDP iPod Interface, by

iSimple®. The PXDP is designed to provide endless hours

of listening pleasure through most vehicles’ factory radios.

To ensure that your iPod performs correctly in your car or

truck, we recommend that you read this entire manual before

attempting installation of the PXDP interface.

The PXDP interface will allow you to connect your iPod to

a factory radio that has the ability to control a CD changer.

The PXDP is designed to be used with most iPod Models

featuring the 30 pin docking port.

1.2 Precautions (Important, Please Read)

UPDATING iPod FIRMWARE

For proper operation of the PXDP, your iPod must be

updated with the most recent version of Firmware from

Apple. This is done on your computer. To Update the

software on the iPod go to http://www.apple.com/ipod/

download/. Follow the directions on the website to complete

the download. There is no charge for this update.

PREVENTING DAMAGE TO YOUR VEHICLE OR iPod.

The manufacturer recommends unplugging the iPod when

not in use.To eliminate the risk of an electrical short, we

recommend disconnecting the car battery in most vehicles,

prior to installation except in the following situations:

• Vehicles equipped with on-board navigation should not

have the car’s battery disconnected. Doing so may cause

loss of memory settings. These settings would then have

to be reprogrammed by an authorized car dealer for a fee

to be paid by the vehicle’s owner. For these vehicles, we

recommend extreme caution when handling exposed 12V

power or ground wires/connectors.

•Vehicles that incorporate a security-code protecting the

radio. If the car’s battery or the radio’s power plugs are

disconnected, the radio will not operate without re-entering

the security-code. If you have access to the security-code,

feel comfortable disconnecting the battery and the radio’s

power connectors. Otherwise, do not disconnect the battery

and exercise extreme caution while handling exposed 12V

power or ground wires/connectors.

PROPER MOUNTING LOCATION

Securely install the interface in a location free from; heat,

humidity, moving parts or direct sunlight. Beware of hot-

air ow from your vehicle’s climate control system. We

recommend securing the interface to a suitable location, free

of sharp metal edges, using; double sided tape, Velcro or

wire ties.

1.3 Conguration and Harness Selection

This section will instruct you on how to properly identify and/

or conrm the proper interface dip-switch conguration and

vehicle specic harness selection.

Use the guide located in the back of this manual on page 18

to locate your vehicle, inform you of the proper dip-switch

conguration for the interface, and the vehicle specic

harness that you will need for your particular vehicle.

Depending on the type of PXDP kit you purchased, it might

include a bundle of different vehicle harnesses or none at all.

If the kit contains many harnesses, only one will be needed

for your specic vehicle. If the kit came without any vehicle

harness, your authorized iSimple® dealer will have the

harness for you to purchase separately.

As you consult the application guide, please take a moment

to review our IMPORTANT COMPATIBILITY NOTES listed

with each of the vehicle manfactuers. These notes will

inform you of any issues or circumstances that can affect the

compatibility of our product with your factory audio system

and accessories. Some situations result in the loss of use

of some factory audio players. Please read and understand

these notes before proceeding with the installation.

1.6 Programming the PXDP

Now that you have identied the correct harness and dip-

switch conguration using the application guide, it is now

time to program the interface. To program the interface, set

the dip-switches located on the side of the interface (see

Fig.1 below) to the congguration listed for your vehicle in

the application guide. Switches are in their default setting of

“off” in the up position and are turned “on” when switched

down. This programs the PXDP to work with the vehicle

in which it will be installed. The dip-switches MUST be set

before the interface is plugged into the vehicle. Otherwise

the PXDP will not work correctly.

Please Refer to Page 18 for Conguration Settings

PLEASE NOTE: If after installation you experience low

volume from the interface, Dipswitch 6 can be turned on

for a 6Db gain.

Chapter 2- General Installation

2.1 Installation Location

Most installations will require you to remove the factory

radio in order to plug in the vehicle specic harness. Some

vehicles may require you to connect the interface to a factory

pre-run CD changer cable. The location of these CD changer

cables will vary by vehicle. Some common locations of these

cables are in the trunk, behind the glove box, and in or under

a center console. ( see Fig.2 below)

2.2 Pre-Installation Checklist

At this time and before beginning the installation

please ensure that:

• You have read and understand the precautions

outlined in section 1.2

• Your iPod’s Firmware is up to date. (section

1.2)

• You have your radio’s security code.(when

applicable, see section 1.2)

• The dip-switches on the interface have been

set with the proper conguration. (see section

1.3)

• You have in your possession the correct

harness for your vehicle. (see sec. 1.3)

• You have determined your installation location.

(see section 2.1)

If any of these steps has not been taken,

STOP. Only when ALL of these steps have been

taken should you proceed with the rest of the

installation.

2.3 Wiring Connections

Some vehicle specic harnesses require wiring connections

that involve splicing of wires. If you are not condent in

making these connections to your radio’s wiring harness, we

recommend you seek professional installation. You can visit

www.isimplesolutions.com and click on the dealer link at the

top of the page to nd an authorized professional installer.

Make these connections only after verifying the proper circuit

on your radio harness with a voltmeter. With the key OFF

and the negative test lead of the voltmeter rmly touching a

bare metal chassis part of your car, begin probing the wires

in the main radio harness with the positive test lead. The

constant 12V+ circuit should read a continuous 12 volts or

higher.

Once you’ve identied the constant 12V+ circuit, strip

back about 1/8” of the insulation. Now take the positive

test lead and insert it into the wire stranding so that you

can now probe for a suitable ground location in the dash

cavity using the negative test lead. Bare chassis metal is

the recommended ground spot. The voltmeter will read a

constant 12 volts or higher when you have found a good

ground point. Attach the BLACK ground wire to this spot

with either an existing bolt or screw or use a metal piercing

screw. You also have the option of splicing into the ground

wire in the main radio harness. Probe the remaining wires

with the negative test lead until you again nd a circuit that

reads a constant 12 volts on the voltmeter. When you’ve

found a circuit that reads constant 12 volts, turn the dash

light dimmer control to make sure you have not probed the

illumination dimmer circuit. If the circuit continues to read

a constant 12 volts or higher regardless of the dimmer

position, you have found the ground wire. If not, continue

testing until you do. Some vehicles do not have a ground

wire in their main radio harness and instead ground through

their mounting brackets to the dash. In these cases, you

will have to ground the black wire to the bare metal chassis

inside the dash . Once the ground wire is connected, please

nish your wiring connections by splicing in the external

YELLOW wire from the vehicle specic harness.

Vehicle Specic Harnesses that require wiring

connections:

PXHFD1 – connect the Yellow wire to constant 12V+ &

connect the Black wire to ground.

PXHFD2 – connect the Yellow wire to constant 12V+ &

connect the Black wire to ground.

PXHFD3 – connect the Yellow wire to constant 12V+ &

connect the Black wire to ground.

PXHGM3 – connect the Yellow wire to constant 12V+ &

connect the Black wire to ground.

PXHVW2 – connect both the Black and Black/White wires to

ground.

2.4 Installation at the CD Changer Location

In this section you will learn how to install the PXDP in the

factory CD changer location. If your vehicle is equipped with

a factory CD changer you will need to disconnect it from

the factory pre-run harness in order to connect the PXDP

interface. If your vehicle is not equipped with a factory CD

changer, you will need to locate the factory pre-run harness.

This may involve the removal of the; center console, glove

box, or carpeted side panels in the trunk. Please consult

your vehicle’s dealership or a local car audio professional

for instruction or assistance with locating the factory CD

changer connection if necessary.

1. Connect your vehicle specic Harness to the factory pre-

run CD changer harness in the vehicle.

2. Make any necessary wiring connections on your vehicle

specic harness. Please see section 2.3 for details on

making these wiring connections.

3. Now that the interface is connected to the radio, you

change to the previous song. With the operation of the

interface conrmed, you may continue with the installation.

If you experience difculties in operation, please see our

troubleshooting chart in section 3.2.

4. Decide on a convenient location to mount your iPod.

5. Run the docking cable from the interface to the desired

mounting location. Use caution to not cut, pinch, or crimp

the cable during this step. Avoid moving parts, vehicle wiring

harnesses and areas of excessive heat when routing the

cable.

6. Secure the interface in the vehicle using; double sided

tape, Velcro or wire ties. Make sure to check for proper

clearance and avoid moving parts. Take into account the size

of the interface and the wire harness and do not force the

interface and harness into a space that is too tight, damage

to the harness may result.

7. Now that the interface is secured and the docking cable

has been run, you are ready to enjoy your iPod in your

vehicle!

2.5 Installation at the Radio

In this section you will learn how to install the PXDP behind

the radio. If your vehicle is equipped with a factory CD

changer or other external audio source, you will need to

disconnect it from the back of the radio in order to connect

the PXDP interface.

1. Carefully remove the radio from the vehicle. If your radio

uses a Security Code, make sure that you have the code

before unplugging the radio. Some vehicles require the use

of special tools to remove the radio. Please consult your

vehicle’s dealership or a local car audio professional for

instruction or assistance with radio removal if necessary.

2. Make any necessary wiring connections on your vehicle

specic harness. Please see section 2.3 for details on

making these wiring connections.

3. Connect the Vehicle Specic Harness to the CD changer

port on the back of the radio. Be sure to make a rm

connection but do not force it. If there is difculty making the

connection, please consult the application guide to conrm

your vehicle specic harness selection.

4. Now that the interface is connected to the radio, you

will need to test the operation of the interface before

permanently running the black iPod docking cable or re-

assembling the dash.

Chapter 3- Operation

3.1 Operation

SELECTING THE IPOD

To select the iPod from the radio, press the button that would

normally activate the factory CD changer. This button varies

by vehicle manufacturers. In some applications the PXDP is

accessed like an XM reciever, In these cases you will press

the appropriate activation button. Some radio models require

pressing the “Seek >” button once, after pressing the CD

button. Yet, it may also be necessary to press Play on the

iPod itself to begin playback. In some cases, if it is the rst

time selecting the iPod from the radio it may take up to three

minutes for the PXDP to initialize.

CONTROLLING THE IPOD FROM THE RADIO

With the PXDP interface, the radio will control the iPod as

if it were a factory CD changer. Therefore, operation will be

done by using the same buttons you would use to control

a factory CD changer. For more details on your particular

radio, consult your vehicle’s owner’s manual.

The PXDP interface allows you to skip songs forward and

backwards and also to fast forward and rewind through a

particular song. In general, most radios will utilize “seek” or

“track” buttons to control these functions.

CONTROLLING THE IPOD FROM THE IPOD

The PXDP interface allows you to keep full control of the

iPod from the click wheel. You can browse les and change

playlist on the iPod. You can also skip songs forward and

backwards from the iPod. The PXDP interface does not

disable any functionality of the iPod!

RADIO DISPLAY DURING IPOD OPERTION

Some factory radio’s may show DISC and TRACK numbers

on the display of the radio. The PXDP interface does not

send any information from the iPod to the radio. This means

that the DISC and TRACK numbers shown on the display

will not and can not reect the song number on the iPod

due to the complex nature of the music library. Some factory

radio’s may ash zero’s on the display of the radio, or toggle

back and forth between 1:00 and 2:00. All these are normal

behaviors and do not represent a malfunction.

CONTROLING THE IPOD FROM THE STEERING WHEEL

CONTROLS

If your vehicle’s steering wheel controls have the ability to

select track and control the forward and rewind functions of

your factory CD changer, then they will also control these

same functions on the iPod.
