The term “external unit” refers to future
Pioneer devices that are not currently planned
for, or to devices that allow control of basic
functions although they are not fully con-
trolled by the navigation system. Two external
units can be controlled by this navigation sys-
tem. When two external units are connected,
the navigation system allocates them as exter-
nal unit 1 or external unit 2.
For details of the connection method, refer to
“Installation Manual”.
For details concerning operation, refer to the
external unit’s operation manual. This section
provides information on external unit opera-
tions with the navigation system that differ
from those described in the external unit’s op-
eration manual.
p Operation varies depending on the external
unit connected. (In some cases, the exter-
nal unit may not respond.)
