Hi Guys,
I have just been given an Alpine CVA 1000R head unit and also an Alpine TUE T012 TV Diversity Unit.
The stup was once part of my mates posh car ICE and had an Alpine GPS system running to it, it also acted as the controller for his multi CD unit.
For some reason when he parted with the car he only kept the two parts he has given me so I have not got the GPS part which I believe also controlled the screen.
Anyway I digress, all I want the unit for is to use as a reversing camera screen, but I cant get any info on the connections. I ahve googled to the max and got nowhere, so I opened the unit and discovered that the circuit board in the head unit is marked up as below.
GND 10 o o 20 GND
Batt 9 o o 19 Batt
ACC 8 o o 18 ACC
REM 7 o o 17 Dimmer
G-Cont 6 o o 16 Park
D-Cont 5 o o 15 Mod-Cont
Bus + 4 o o 14 Acc-Cont
Bus - 3 o o 13 B-Gnd
2 o o 12
Video 1 o o V-Gnd
I have hooked up the GND to Ground and the Batt and Acc to 12v, giving me power to open the drawer, but as to some of the other pins I am baffled to their meaning, so if anone can enlighten me I would be forever grateful.
I know its an old unit, my local ICE shop told me that, when they had finally stopped laughing at it, but like I said I only want to use it for a basic purpose and having limited funds it seems like a good way of using both it and an old small camera I have had for ages!
Anyway please give any info you can, it is much needed.
Thanks for looking..............Al
