  • Page 6: Limitations

    Limitations CAN-bus compatibility CAN-bus compatibility of interface may to some vehicles have no or limited compatibility. This can show on installation as well as later. Interface and all its video-inputs can be operated with analogue trigger signals, without connection to vehicle CAN-bus. Yet, in this case, some features do not work, see chapter 2.4.2 Analogue connection without CAN-bus.
  • Page 7: Warnings

    Warnings Damage to head-unit or interface can occur, if interface is installed to older SMEG or SMEG+ head-units (by Magneti Marelli). Damage can also occur if the 4-pin HSD connectors are connected incorrectly. Prior to installation the head-unit version must be identified. The very head-unit can differ in number and colours of the below pictures as there is sub-versions.
