ESX VN1060-MA-4G Car Radio Navigation Universal 1-DIN i60 Smart Head Unit

IMPORTANT NOTES

This guide is an aid for the professional installation of the device. Please note the following notes before installation:

• Always handle all parts of the device and the components of your vehicle with care.
• Under all circumstances observe the regulations of the vehicle manufacturer and do not make any changes to the vehicle which could impair driving safety.
• For safety reasons, disconnect the vehicle battery’s ground connection before installation.
• Please always pay attention to the correct polarity of the connections.
• Please do not modify any harnesses or connections of the device or the vehicle as this may affect the warranty.
• Make sure that no cables are squashed or cause a short circuit.
• Do not lay cables in front of the airbags, e.g. in the dashboard or in a way that affects their function.

NOTE: For many vehicle models, a vehicle-specific 1-DIN installation set is required for professional installation. In order to be able to use the existing steering wheel remote control of your ve-hicle, a vehicle-specific adapter may also be required. You can obtain information about this on the Internet or from your specialist dealer.

INSTALLATION HINTS

Please note the following steps when installing the device:

1. Original radio/navigation system
   If available, first remove the original radio/navigation device. Use suitable unlocking tools to pull the device out of the dashboard. Then pull the cable plug from the device and leave it accessible in the radio slot.

2. Cabling of the ESX main device
   Lay the supplied cable sets and antennas in the vehicle. Please note the information on the next page. Then connect all cable sets, antennas and dongles to the ESX main device as described on page 7. Then plug in the cable plug from the radio slot of the vehicle on the ESX main unit or on its vehicle-specific system cable set.

3. Installation of the ESX main device
   Now the ESX main device can be inserted into the 1-DIN installation slot of the vehi-cle.

4. Installation of the ESX monitor
   Now mount the enclosed monitor on the ESX main device as described on page 9.

5. Functional test
   Before you complete the installation, you should perform a function test. Check all functions of the ESX naviceiver including the steering wheel remote control of the vehicle.

RECOMMENDED TOOLS

SCOPE OF DELIVERY

CONNECTION

System Connection Assignment

ISO System Cable Set

• Cable brown (BRAKE): Connection for handbrake signal (ground)
• Cable pink (BACK): Connection for reverse gear signal (+12V)
• Cable orange/gray (KEY1): Connection for steering wheel remote control (left)
• Cable brown/black (KEY2): Connection for steering wheel remote control (right)
• Cable black (GND): Ground for external devices such as cameras
• Cable blue (AMP CONT): Turn-on signal for external audio amplifier (+12V)

NOTE: The handbrake signal must be connected to the enclosed cable. When the handbrake is applied, the signal must be at ground. According to legal regulations, the device may only play a DVD or video playback on the main screen when the handbrake is on. The connection cable must therefore not be permanently connected to ground. While driving, the screen is switched off to avoid accidents caused by carelessness.

Assignment of AV Connections

• RCA white (FL-OUT): Audio output front/left
• RCA red (FR-OUT): Audio output front/right
• RCA white (RL-OUT): Audio output rear/left
• RCA red (RR-OUT): Audio output rear/right

• Socket black (MIC): Connection for optional microphone
• Cable red (C-POW): + 12V power connection for cameras

GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION

GPS antenna
The GPS antenna must be glued horizontally to the front of the dashboard. No reception is possible if the window is metalized. Choose a flat spot with a clear view of the sky. The location must be about 50 cm away from the main unit, otherwise, the GPS measurement accuracy will be reduced. When installing the GPS antenna in the vehicle, the GPS accuracy is determined by the installation position and body shape of the vehicle. The accuracy is usually lower when the GPS antenna is installed in the vehicle.
DAB antenna
Route the DAB antenna to the windshield and attach it there.

• Clean the windshield with a suitable cleaning cloth.
• Remove the carrier sheet of the black amplifier unit and the foil antenna and stick the antenna to the window.
• Glue the copper-colored metal surface of the grounding sheet to a bare metal part of the vehicle.

NOTE: In newer vehicles, the original vehicle antenna can usually be used for both analog and digital radio reception. The enclosed DAB window antenna should only be used if no fender or roof antenna is available.

USB ports
Route the USB ports to the desired location, e.g. to the glove compartment. If you want to install the USB socket from cable set C in the dashboard, you will need a corresponding drill (19.5 mm diameter), e.g. VNA-USB-TOOL.
WiFi antenna
The WiFi antenna can be laid in the vehicle’s radio slot. The WiFi signal can be received within a radius of about 5 meters.

ASSEMBLING THE DEVICE

Slide the monitor onto the bracket on the main unit and release the two retaining brackets on the side by sliding them outwards. Plug in the connector of the monitor to the main unit.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If the monitor does not work after connecting it to the main device, the connector of the connecting cable may not be properly engaged. Then pull at the monitor the connector of the cable away from the connector until it clicks into place correctly without pressing the release button.

SETUP THE 4G/LTE INTERNET CONNECTION

1. First lay the two 4G/LTE antennas inside the dashboard towards the windshield, one antenna for the left and one for the right.

2. Ideally, you should stick the antennas to the windshield to ensure optimal reception.

3. Then insert your SIM card in the 4G/LTE dongle:

   • Open the dongle by pushing the flap to the right.
   • Now open the metal flap carefully with a suitable tool by pushing the flap up. 
   • Then insert your SIM card with the contacts facing down.
   • Close and lock the metal flap carefully by pushing the flap down.
     Compatible SIM cards:

4. Then turn on the device to test the 4G/LTE connection.

   • After the device has started, enter your 4-digit PIN code of the SIM card here. Confirm the entry with the tick.
   • After successful entry, the SIM card is unlocked. If the device is successfully connected to the mobile Internet, the „4G“ symbol appears in the status bar at the top right.

5. After a successful test, install the 4G/LTE dongle in the radio slot or dashboard.

6. If the device is turned off, you have to enter the PIN code of the SIM card again after each restart, just like with a smartphone. The SIM card‘s PIN query can be deactivated in standard smartphones. To do this, insert the SIM card in a smartphone and deactivate it accordingly. The steps involved vary depending on the smartphone.
