Yes, been there Did you connect with provided BLUE convertor or MOPC-1 ?

 

the provided blue box

 

so you connected the Bose fiber to it, then the RCA's, may be the wrong RCA pair ?

 

I swapped the RCA's around and still nothing. I didn't see a Bose fiber connection. Mind if I shoot you a PM so we dont clog this thread up?

 

yeah ok

 

I don’t think that fading lost is a function of the box. I’m connected directly from Toslink output to my aftermarket amplifier and still fade is lost. It doesn’t matter to me though. At least in my case, I have that capability at amplifier level.

Right . We don’t know. If it brings back fading , and sounds as good, I will switch

The Toslink connection is most likely a stereo PCM 2.0 signal (PCM in audio terminology, not Porsche Communication Management ) and therefore will still not support the fader. The only way this might support fading is if the audio were re-encoded to a Dolby Digital 4.0 or 5.1 signal, which seems extremely unlikely to me. Integrated native MOST would be the potential realistic solution to this, but very few of these devices have integrated MOST since they're reusing the mainboards across many different models.

 

Did everyones radio come with the separate yellow video RCA cable? As in it wasnt part of the white 16pin plug that goes to the headunit?

 

Yes. Single yellow rca that connects to the connectors blocks.

 

I have just one pair of the Red/White RCA’s connected to the converter box, I have audio.

But does anyone know if the other red/white rcas pairs need to be connected up ? Mine are not currently.

 

they are probably pre-outs if you were using aftermarket amp for 4-ch operation.

On a side note, I'm happy that my UPS tracking finally shows exported... I just may get my unit in time to install over xmas week!

 

Ok, Prolly for external Amp , not needed.
Great news it’s on the way !

 

Is anyone having issues with phone call mic audio quality? I am getting complaints from different people that it is hard to hear me while I am on a phone call. Like I am covering up the microphone or I am underwater. I have tried changing the front/back mic option in the settings. The person mentioned that there was no difference in quality after changing the setting.

 

No issues here. Did you remove the plastic covering the control panel? This has a protective clear plastic and maybe covering the mic...?

 

Yes, the latest change I made was to move the BT phone slider to “0” still testing.

 

Def no tape on mine

 

So I finally received the package with the unit, and some other packages. Initial observations:

• The MOST adapter with TOSLINK port is NOT plug-and-play for this unit. That's because the non-TOSLINK box uses a 8-cable socket for the 12V, Ground, etc, while the TOSLINK box uses instead a 6-cable socket. As our headunit comes pre-wired for the non-TOSLINK box, it uses the 8-cable socket plugs. This, however, should be easy to fix by re-routing the cables to the plug that comes with the TOSLINK box. So minor modification required.
• The airflow dials in the headunit, unfortunately, do NOT seem to accept the LED backlit plates from the original Porsche vents, even though the wheels seem to be manufactured with two materials (white plastic and black rubber), which hints towards supporting backlit. The design of the wheel attachments are different in the DaiNav unit, being therefore impossible to insert the backlit plates.
• The two knobs in the unit feel a bit flimsy. They seem to have obvious play when moving them left-right. And the clicking feels different between one another: on the right one, the click has short travel, while the right one has at least double the travel. Do you guys experience the same thing?

Otherwise, design-wise it looks gorgeous and can't want to install it!

 

To bad on the backlight vents. The knobs are a bit flimsy.......I have ordered the ones that @Santirx used, hoping to beef it up a bit....and it adds backlighting.

 

First off...Merry Xmas!

I finally have had time to start my install and am mostly done. Question -- are we able to use the factory GPS antenna or do I need to use the aftermarket one that came with the unit?

 

The OEM one I working in my install using the FAKRA adaptor, you could of course use supplied.
Have you made any BT phone calls , mic volume okay for other party ?
Merry Xmas !

 

I'll get that adapter..thought I had ordered it..

I haven't done any BT calls yet.. but looking to test it out..

 

One other question. Can the Sirius XM antenna be used for the 4g antenna? Or are they different enough it won't work?

 

I have not seen anyone adapt that . I could not say.

Thanks! Any tips to manage the wires? I keep pushing the vents loose.

 

Put duct tape on the elbows so they stay connected. Place the Quad lock , Canbox and Converter on top of the elbows . Have to make sure all is clear for push back . Do not break the Fiber optic cable.

 

Sample Audio with the default head unit mic.

I was in the garage when I did this and just let it go to voicemail.

Anyone find a good manual for this head unit? I was trying to figure out how to map the keys on the steering wheel, but "long press" as show on the screen didn't seem to work for me.

 

Sounds good. I have not seen a manual ……. There is a digital version included.

 

Anyone have trouble with the USB connection in the center console? Mine didn't seem to work, but the 2nd USB interface which I currently have dangling in the passenger footwell worked fine for me to copy some files over.

Also, as an FYI, I've notified Dainav about 3 issues I encountered:

1. Inability to customize home screen buttons
2. Remapping of steering wheel buttons not working
3. Setting temp to Fahrenheit vs Celsius not showing correctly in header

I've sent them screenshots and some videos.. not sure if they'll fix, but if they do hopefully a software update will be available!

 

I have not tested the arm console USB, as I will never use it . Yes , other USB tested and fine.

Glad you repotted the issues. I have also reported the Diamond “joker” button steering wheel needs to be released ……as it switches sources currently. All other wheel functions are good.

 

New question... has anyone figured out the right settings to show the forward parking sensor info? I can only seem to see it when I'm in reverse, but thought I was able to see it before I got the reverse camera hooked up. I can't seem to find that screen again though or the setting that I changed to lose it
