In Display Only Bluetooth Mode, the screen no longer participates in the audio. All audio is controlled by the phone, which can simul
Itaneously connects to the car’s Bluetooth for audio playback and supports the car’s multifunction steering wheel buttons and microphone. In this mode, the phone can also connect to an installed aux Bluetooth receiver or FM Bluetooth receiver.

Compared to the setup where the phone connects to the screen and the screen transmits audio to the car speakers via aux cable or FM, Display Only Bluetooth Mode offers lower latency and more stable sound quality.
Since wireless CarPlay connections to the screen do not support lossless audio formats, audio via the screen’s aux connection to the car is not lossless. The true lossless audio playback method is in Display Only Bluetooth Mode, where the phone connects directly to the car’s audio system via an aux cable. (Note: phone aux cable connection to the car requires using speakerphone for calls.)

  • Bluetooth pairing, a Wi-Fi local network is automatically created and connected.
  • On your phone, you only need to connect via Bluetooth pairing; do not manually try to connect to Wi-Fi, as this will occupy the Wi-Fi channel.)

System Firmware Upgrade

  1. Prepare a USB drive with a capacity of 64GB or less and format it to FAT32. (You can also use a memory card with a card reader instead of a USB drive.)
  2. Extract the upgrade software to obtain three files (as shown).CarpodGo-T3-Pro-Portable-60fps-Wireless-Carplay-Android-Auto-FIG-14
    1. Place these three files on an empty USB drive (the empty USB drive is also referred to as the root directory), and insert the USB drive into the screen’s USB port using an OTG adapter.
    1. Go to Settings > About > Upgrade Scan, and when prompted, the firmware will automatically update.

(The screen will display the progress bar status indicating a successful upgrade. After the upgrade is complete, check for the version number change. Note: If the device keeps restarting during the upgrade, it indicates that the created USB drive files or USB drive driver are not compatible, causing the screen to stay on the firmware scanning step. It is recommended to use a different USB drive to recreate the upgrade firmware and insert it into the device, which will autom- atically scan and update.)

Reversing Camera Wiring

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q: No response from the reverse camera after shifting into reverse.

    • A: Ensure that both the power supply to the screen and the power supply conn ected to the reverse light are from the same main power source. They need to be in the same power system to form a circuit and trigger the reverse camera.
      Check if the 12V trigger wire is correctly connected to the positive terminal of the reverse light and if there is a 12V current at the positive terminal of the reverse light.
  • Q: White screen on the reverse camera after shifting into reverse.

    • A: A white screen usually indicates insufficient power supply voltage. Confirm if you are using the standard power cable provided by us. Please test with our standard power cable.
  • Q: Flashing or black screen on the reverse camera after shifting into reverse.

    • A: This situation indicates that the 12V voltage or current of the reverse light is unstable, with pulse signal interference.
    • A voltage stabilizer is needed to filter the current pulse signal and maintain a stable 12V voltage signal to the reverse light.
