Troubleshooting…………………………………………………………… 10 Glossary…………………………………………………………………… 12 Description The Autoplugin RCP-V5 is electronic module designed for remote control connection to the fuel-fired heater (parking heater, fuel operated heater, pre- heater), factory installed in Volvo S90 (2016-), V90 (2016-) or XC90 (2015-). The device controls the heater via CAN-bus.
Basic Functions 1. To start the heater by using car’s remote control key press “Lock” button 3 times. Time intervals between presses must not exceed 20 seconds. The excess of time interval restarts the counter of “Lock” button presses. Car confirms commands reception with hazard signals flashing.

If entered digit is not correct, enter the code once more in that case. Several codes can be entered without exit of setup mode. Turn the ignition off to exit setup mode. New settings are saved in nonvolatile memory of the module and stored there regardless of whether the module is connected or not to the car.

Signals The module has two connectors: 9-pin connector X1 (table 1) for input signals and power connection, 10-pin connector X2 (table 2) for output signals, special signals and CAN-bus connection. The connector’s first pin is marked by the key. X1.1 Heater_off+ The input can be used to switch off the heater, operated in pre-heat mode, with the impulse of positive polarity (the input Heater_off- in that case has to be connected to the Ground).

that the heater has been switched off. When the heater is switched off, the impulse of positive polarity with 0.5 second duration appears on the output. When the engine is running, the output is permanently pulled up to the Power. X2.2 Status_Minus The assignment of this output is defined by the setting 7.5.
Connection Permanent connection to the car’s wiring is required. See installation manual for detailed connection schemes for various remotes. RCP needs that timers and direct start / stop function for the heater control are present in the CIP. Therefore it may be necessary to load the special software to the CIP at first, by the means of Volvo dealer’s equipment.
