System Information

Shared Modes

This allows the VES to output radio sources to the
headphones and the radio to output VES sources to the
vehicle speakers. When the radio and VES channel 1 or 2
are in the same (shared) mode, a VES icon will be visible
on the radio's display for that channel, and the shared
icon will be visible on the VES screen. When in shared
mode, the same audio source is heard in the shared
headphone channel 1 or channel 2.
If the radio functions (FM, AM, or SAT) are in the shared
mode with the VES, only the radio is able to control the
radio functions. In this case, VES can share the radio
mode, but not change stations until the radio mode is
changed to a mode that is different from the VES selected
radio mode. When shared, the radio has priority over the
VES or all radio modes (FM, AM, and SAT). The VES has

the ability to switch tuner (AM/FM), SEEK, SCAN,
TUNE, and recall presets in radio modes as long as it is
not in shared mode.
When in shared disc mode both the radio and the VES
have control of the video functions. The VES has the
ability to control the following video modes:
1. CD: Ability to Fast Forward, Rewind, Scan, and Track
Up/Down.
2. CD Changer (in radio): Ability to Disk Up/Down and
program all listed CD controls (Fast Forward, Rewind,
Scan, and Track Up/Down).
The VES can even control radio modes or video modes
while the radio is turned off. The VES can access the
radio modes or disc modes by navigating to those modes
on the VES and activating a radio mode or disc mode.
