G4 has an input wire for steering wheel remote control. Does anybody know what kind of input it expects on this wire? What cars is it compatible with?

I am planning to buy G4 for my Honda CRV and I want to continue the use of steering wheel remote control. Looking for something compatible I found http://www.peripheralelectronics.com/peswix.asp.
I hope that it will help you

Thanks ginvat, I am aware of this third-party product, but I just want to understand first whether G4 built-in functionality is compatible with my car or not.

G4 is the first PC product in my experience that comes with no technical documentation whatsoever and no drivers Angry

Dear Marassa,

>no technical documentation whatsoever
Please find the manual online : http://www.cartft.com/support/doku/manuals/manual_dl/Infill_G4_manual_ENG.pdf

> and no drivers
A drivers CD is included in the scope of supply.

We currenlty are negotiating with Infill what cars are supported by the steering wheel control option.

Dear admin,

Thank you very much for this information!

I did not receive the manual with my shipment and I missed its appearance on your site three days ago. By the way, while reading the manual I noticed some references to TTS functionality in IS but I don't have such menus in my version. Is it possible to update InfillStation to more current version?

I've got the drivers on the CD but what's most glaringly missing is the radio card drivers or at least some info on what brand/model radio is used.

I'm looking forward to learning more about the steering wheel control, either the list of cars supported or better still what exactly electrical input is expected on this wire so that I could try to fake this input even if my car is not supported out-of-the-box.

One more thing that I am missing (but not all that urgent) is some documentation/API on screen motorisation functions and the car radio antenna control. Ideally, ALL hardware that sits within G4 should be documented and supplied with drivers.

G4 is cool! Smile

Best regards,
Andrei
