3. Installation Switch off ignition and disconnect the vehicle’s battery! If according to factory rules disconnecting the battery has to be avoided, it is usually sufficient to put the vehicle in sleep-mode. In case the sleep-mode does not show success, disconnect the battery with a resistor lead. Place of installation is behind the Comand head-unit.

3.1. Interconnecting tuner-box, CAN-box and harnesses

Connect harness CAB-AV-6P to 6pin Molex of tuner-box DT2C-M713. Connect harness DT2C-MBN45 to 8pin Molex of CAN-box TV-500. Connect harness DT2C-MBN45 to 14pin Molex of tuner-box DT2C-M713. Connect male MOST®-connector of harness DT2C-MBN45 into female MOST®-socket of tuner-box DT2C-M713. Connect the CAN-bus lines as follows:

3.2. Quadlock connector Remove the Comand from the dash-board.

Disconnect female Quadlock connector from the back of the Comand. Remove MOST®-insert from the factory harness female Quadlock connector. Plug MOST®-insert into male MOST®-connector shell of harness DT2C-MBN45. Connect male Quadlock connector of harness DT2C-MBN45 to female Quadlock connector of vehicle harness. Plug male MOST®-connector into female MOST®-socket of DT2C-MBN45.

Connect female Quadlock connector of DT2C-MBN45 to male Quadlock connector of the Comand. Connect both female Fakra connectors of harness DT2C-MBN45 to the brown Fakra connectors on the rear of the Comand. The sequence doesn’t matter.

Note: Vehicles without MOST®-components, which means without factory CDC, without factory phone or other MOST®-components have no optical leads at the Comand. In this case remove female MOST®-socket of DT2C-MBN45 and the single optical lead between the male and female Quadlock of the DT2C-MBN45. Plug the now left over single optical lead on the male Quadlock side into the now empty slot of the male MOST®-connector.

3.3. Antennas and optional IR-remote control set

Mount antennas ANT-12 and connect them to the female f-plug connectors on front of tuner-box DT2C-M713. We strongly recommend to first test the reception quality of the chosen mounting position of the antennas before final installation! See “Appendix C – Antenna positioning” for additional information.

The C3-IRSET consists of the external C3C-SENSOR IR-sensor and the C3C-RC IR-remote control and can be used to control the dvbLOGiC’s internal DVB-T tuner functions additionally to the control through the navigations buttons. Connect the C3C-SENSOR to the female black/red/blue 3pin AMP connector of harness DT2C-MBN45 and locate the sensor in an accessible place.

Note: To use the teletext function of the dvbLOGiC’s internal DVB-T tuner, the C3-IRSET is necessary to enter the page numbers.

3.4. USB-AV-Player

Connect the USB extension USBC-EXT to the USB-port on the rear of the tuner-box DT2C-M713. Connect USB-media (up to 2TB, FAT32 and NTFS) to the USB-port of the USB-extension cable USBC-EXT.

3.5. Connecting peripheral devices

It is possible to connect rear-seat-entertainment and a Conex converter to the dvbLOGiC Tuner. Before final installation of the peripheral devices, we recommend to test-run the dvbLOGiC functions to detect incompatibility of vehicle, navigation, factory accessories or peripheral devices as soon as possible.

3.5.1. After-market rear-seat-entertainment

Using RCA-cables, connect the rear-seat-entertainment to the female RCA-connector of harness CAB-AV-6P.

Note: As the output is a full output, not shared with the video signal for the navigation system, splitting the video with an RCA Y-cable might give a good enough picture for two rear-seat-entertainment monitors. If not, or if connecting more than two monitors, use a video splitter. The pink ACC-output wire (+12V max 1A) of harness DT2C-MBN45 can be connected to the ACC-input wires of the rear-seat entertainment to switch it on. It carries +12V when the navigation computer is running.

3.5.2. Conax converter

Connect the micro-USB-port of the optionally available Conax converter (e.g. DVBTC-CONAX) to the micro-USB-port on the rear of tuner-box DT2C-M713.

3.6. Coding To enable the dvbLOGiC functions on the Comand (TV-option), they need to be coded once on the Comand by pressing button combinations. 3.6.1. TV-option In order to use the dvbLOGiC it is necessary to code the Comand’s TV-option.
