The Gateway 500S BT emulates a CD changer and uses CD changer
controls to access offboard audio sources therefore it may be
necessary to have the car programmed by your dealer in order to
use the GW500S BT with it.

Generally no programming is required but in some cases (e.g. no
device was connected onto the optical ring) a CD changer will
have to be enabled with the service computer.
Porsche
Generally CD changer and Phone option needs to be coded
except on US spec. Porsche, where only CD-Changer needs to be
programed.
3. Device Installation
The Gateway 500S BT can be installed anywhere on the MOST
ring, however in order to avoid any compatibility or functional
issues, please make sure that the Gateway 500S BT is the last
connected device on the MOST ring or it is connected to beside
the factory CD-Changer (if available). Please note: Installation
of the Gateway 500S BT is very complex, therefore please have it
installed by Professional Installer.
Important note: If you install a Dual FOT version of the Gateway
500S where the 2nd optical FOT extension is not in use then please
create an optical loop by using the 2nd optical cable ( located in
the package) and connect it to the 2nd FOT ('CDC side') of the
Gateway.
MOST ring installation
Disconnect the fiber optic Male connector from the original
interface (e.g. Head Unit) then remove the fiber optic housing
from the Male connector and finally disconnect (Fig. 1.) the fiber
optic fibre (the one which is marked to be the 'signal in' cable –
with an arrow) as it is shown below
1a.
HU
Remove the blue locking clip from the
middle of the fibre optic housing.
1b.
Strain the hook carefully with a
sharp tool, while pulling out the
optical fibre from the housing.
Connect that optical wire (use the optical male /male inline
connector) with the 'signal in' cable of the Dension device. The
optical fiber 'signal out' fibre of the Dension device must be
connected to the original optic housing. Finally, take the Male
connector and connect it to the original interface. At the end of
the installation please make sure that the light directions of the
MOST optical ring are correct.
