Interesting, I am having the same problem with my camera. It sure would be great if it was that simple to fix, especially since that would mean I don't need to pull the dash apart... again :facepalm:
As for the ipod, he is probably right. But I have noticed with mine if it's already plugged in I just hear noise, I have to plug it in after the radio is on and it works fine. Sounds like that might be a different issue though. I haven't updated the software yet either though. |

If you can't get the head unit to recognize the camera, it either isn't hooked up properly, or you need to follow my instructions on the previous page to recognize the camera. |
It could be both, but it doesn't seem to recognize the camera. I figured I've got a bad camera but haven't been able to confirm that yet. I know it is getting power, but I am gonna try going through the set up again and putting it in reverse anyway just to see what happens.

^ good luck man. I know it will prob take me a month to figure out all the features and what not on this damn thing.

iPhone 4 and DNX9960
OK guys, here's all the hot poop on the using the iPhone 4 with the 9960.
Cable: By using the the Kenwood KCA-iP301V, you get full fuctionality of the unit. Artwork shows up, page flow works, etc. Works just like my 160GB iPod. *Note: you have to make sure that the iPhone is not connecting as an audio unit (A2DP) or you won't hear anything. You don't have to disconnect the phone part of the Bluetooth, just the audio. Kenwood - KCA-iP301V Bluetooth streaming: You have to make sure that the iPhone is connected to using the audio (A2DP) setup. You then use "Bluetooth" as your source. This way gives you play, pause, stop, etc., but no artwork. Basic playback functionality. If you have the steering wheel controls set up (I installed the Metra Axxess ASWC) they will work for changing songs. Hope this helps you guys. |

hey Tree, people complain of the PAC SWI-JACK steering wheel controls has a lag. Does the Axxess one lag between button press and radio performing the command?
Oh the iPod thing - yeah in the kenwood manual it will tell you the cable you need to play the iPod is an optional accessory and doesn't come with the radio- this can be confusing because it has a USB cable hard wired into the head unit labeled 'iPod' but this is to plug in the aftermarket cable you then have to buy to use that usb plug. My kenwood DNX9140 is the same way. Oh btw, I'm in the process of installing the CMOS-300 into my DNX9140. I had originally hoped that all I would have to do is plug the camera into the head unit, because it is made for kenwoods, but I have to in-fact connect all that "power supply box" and other **** up too, eh, and just make sure to use the headunit control cable, not the supplied control button bull? |

As far as the Axxess. I don't notice any lag at all except when controlling my iPod, but that is only when I try to skip multiple songs and I believe it's the iPod, not the controller. I listen and control Pandora via Bluetooth on my iPhone all of the time and it responds very quickly. There is night-and-day difference IMO between the PAC and the Metra. |
[QUOTE=TreeSemdyZee;876935]Awesome.If you want to be able to turn the camera on without being in reverse, you'll have to run the power wire to your auxiliary power. Mine is that way and I can push and hold my "AUD" button and the camera turns on without being in reverse.
By doing this, you can access the camera in any gear. Reverse will turn it on, but you can also trigger it with the "AUD" button. So i installed a kenwood CMOS-200 and have a picture in reverse but nothing when i hold the button to view while driving. I have the reverse tapped into the reverse light and the power tapped into a red accessory power source...is this not correct? |
I figured I've got a good camera , I complete installed it, it is getting power...
