INSTALLATION
With the key in the off position:
- Connect the 16-pin harness with stripped leads, and the AX-HK1 harness, into the AX-HK1 Interface.
- For models equipped with a factory amplifier, connect the AX-HK1-SPDIF (sold separately) to the AX-HK1 interface.
Attention! Do not connect the AX-HK1 harness to the vehicle’s wiring
harness until Step 2 of Programming.
Attention! If retaining steering wheel controls, ensure that the
jack/wire is connected to the radio before proceeding. If this step is
skipped, the interface will need to be reset for the steering wheel controls
to function.
L.E.D. feedback
The (21) Red L.E.D. flashes represent which brand radio the AX-HK1 detects.
Each flash represents a different radio manufacturer. For example, if you are
installing a JVC radio, the AX-HK1 will flash Red (5) times, and then stop.
Following is the L.E.D Feedback Legend a legend that indicates which radio
Manufacturer corresponds to which flash.
L.E.D. Feedback Legend
Flash Count | Radio | Flash Count | Radio |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Eclipse (type 1) † | 12 | Eclipse (type 2) † |
2 | Kenwood ‡ | 13 | LG |
3 | Clarion (type 1) † | 14 | Parrot ** |
4 | Sony / Dual | 15 | XITE |
5 | JVC | 16 | Philips |
6 | Pioneer / Jensen | 17 | TBA |
7 | Alpine * | 18 | JBL |
8 | Visteon | 19 | Insane Audio |
9 | Valor | 20 | Magnadyne/Axxera |
10 | Clarion (type 2) † | 21 | Boss |
11 | Metra OE |
*Note: If the AX-HK1 flashes Red (7) times, and you do not have an Alpine
radio connected to it, that means the ASWC-1 does not detect a radio connected
it. Verify that the 3.5mm jack is connected to the correct steering wheel
jack/wire in the radio.
Note: The AX-SWC-PARROT is required (sold separately). Also, the Parrot
radio must be updated to rev. 2.1.4 or higher through
www.parrot.com.
Note: If you have a Clarion radio and the steering wheel controls do not
work, change the radio type to the other Clarion radio type; same for Eclipse.
Refer to the “Programming Information” document online.
Note:** If you have a Kenwood radio and the L.E.D. feedback comes back as
showing as a JVC radio, change the radio type to a Kenwood. Refer to the
“Programming Information” document online.
PROGRAMMING
For the steps below, the L.E.D. located inside the interface can only be seen while active. The interface does not need to be opened to see the L.E.D.
| Turn on the vehicle.
---|---
| Connect the AX-HK1 harness to the wiring harness in the vehicle.
| The L.E.D. will initially turn solid Green, then turn off for several
seconds, while it auto detects the radio installed.
| The L.E.D. will then flash Red up to (21) times, indicating which radio is
connected to the interface, and then turn off for several seconds. The L.E.D.
will then turn solid Red, while the interface auto detects the vehicle.
| The radio will shut off at this point. This process should take 5 to 30
seconds. Once the vehicle has been auto detected by the interface, the L.E.D.
will turn solid Green, and the radio will come back on, indicating
programming was successful.
| Turn the vehicle off then on again to make sure the programming worked.
| Test all functions of the installation for proper operation, before
reassembling the dash.
STEERING WHEEL CONTROL SETTINGS
Attention: The Axxess Updater App can also be used to program the following (3) sub-sections as well, after the interface has been initialized and programmed.
Changing radio type
If the LED flash count does not match the radio in the Radio Legend, then the
AXDIS-HK1 must be manually programmed:
- Turn the key to the ignition and after (3) seconds press and hold the Volume-Down button on the steering wheel until the L.E.D. in the AX-HK1 interface turns a solid green.
- Release the Volume-Down button; the L.E.D. will go out indicating the interface is in Changing Radio Type mode.
- Press and hold the Volume-Up button until the L.E.D. turns a solid green and then release. Repeat this step until the number of the radio manufacturer from the Radio Legend is reached.
- Once the desired radio number has been selected, press and hold the Volume-Down button on the steering wheel until the L.E.D. turns a solid green. The L.E.D. will remain on for about (3) seconds, while it stores the new radio information.
- Once the L.E.D. goes off, the Changing Radio Type mode will then end. You can now test the steering control wheel controls.
Note: If at any time the user fails to press any button for a period longer than (10) seconds, this process will abort.
Remapping
Once the AX-HK1 has been programmed, the button assignment for the steering
wheel controls may be reassigned, if so desired. For example, the Seek-Up
button can be reprogrammed to be the Mute button. Follow the steps below to
remap the steering wheel control buttons:
-
Ensure the AX-HK1 is visible so you can see the L.E.D. flashes to confirm button recognition.
Tip: Turning the radio off is recommended. -
Within the first 20 seconds of turning the ignition on, press and hold the Volume-Up button on the steering wheel until the L.E.D. turns a solid green.
-
Release the Volume-Up button, the L.E.D. will then go out; The Volume-Up button has now been programmed.
-
Follow the list in the Button Assignment Legend to reference the order in which the steering wheel control buttons need to be programmed.
Note: If the next function on the list is not on the steering wheel, press the Volume-Up button for (1) second until the L.E.D. comes on, and then release the Volume-Up button. This will tell the AX-HK1 that this function is not available and it will move on to the next function. -
To complete the remapping process, press and hold the Volume-Up button on the steering wheel until the L.E.D. in the AX-HK1 goes out.

Note: Some radios may not have these commands. Please refer to the manual provided with the radio, or contact the radio manufacturer for specific commands recognized by that particular radio.
Dual assignment (long button press)
The AX-HK1 has the capability to assign (2) functions to a single button,
except Volume-Up and Volume-Down. Follow the steps below to program the
button(s) to the desired setting.
Note: Seek-Up and Seek-Down come pre-programmed as Preset-Up and Preset- Down for a long button press.
-
Turn the key to the ignition but do not start the vehicle.
-
Press and hold the desired steering wheel control button for (10) seconds, or until the L.E.D. flashes rapidly. At this point release the button; the L.E.D. will then turn a solid green.
-
Press and release the Volume-Up button the number of times corresponding to the new button number selected. Refer to the Dual Assignment Legend. The L.E.D. will flash rapidly while the Volume-Up button is being pressed, and then go back to a solid L.E.D. once released. Proceed to the next step once the Volume-Up button has been pressed the desired number of times.
Caution: If more than (10) seconds elapses between pressing the Volume-Up button, this procedure will abort, and the L.E.D. will go out. -
Press the desired button to store it to memory. The L.E.D. will now go out indicating the new information has been stored to memory.
Note: These steps must be repeated for each button desired to assign a dual assignment feature to. To reset a button back to its default state, repeat Step 1, then press the Volume-Down button. The L.E.D. will go out, and the dual assignment feature for that button will be erased.
