Car audio and multimedia conversion equipment qualification standards

1, car computers overview

Automotive Electronics computer integrated (pc-based) represents the future of automotive technology and product development direction. In short, the car after loading market car PC installation service that is in the cars and vehicles share the computer. Based on the car PC platforms, each car can build into a perfect mobile information and entertainment system Terminal, fully integrated Telematics (in-car communication system), Navigation System (navigation and monitoring system) and Digital Entertainment System (digital entertainment system), Driver Assist System (auxiliary steering system), the Driver State Analysis System (driver status analysis system), Surround Vehicle Detection (vehicle driving environment detection system), and other in-vehicle system, vehicle occupants may ease file processing, wireless Internet, GPS navigation, audio playback, digital mobile TV receiver, travelling information browsing, remote monitoring, backing imaging, driver status monitoring, driving environment monitoring, and other functions.

Automotive needs in different road and climate conditions. Car PC work environment is poor, you need to take regular vibration and temperature and humidity of the dramatic changes, but also withstand voltage large amplitude and car and outside electromagnetic interference, so car PC requires a high level of reliability and durability of the environment. Plus car PC needs and original car systems integration, so the car PC requires sophisticated technology is very complex. In addition to technical factors, car PC related aspects of intellectual property rights and Community law are more complex.

Car PC in the people's livelihood and industrial users have broad prospects, but before the implementation of this vision is a lengthy process.

From international major car brand concept car design, car computers will become one of the standard configuration of the car. From our country, with the release of the 3 g Standard, as well as the development of automotive electronics, car computers will be widely applied. And with the level of industrialization, car PC will be more practical, attractive and safe. Car PC especially in strengthening the active security has great potential. With the 3 g standard publishing and popularization of car PC to car PC to the Terminal Internet value-added services will appear, this will surely bring relevant software industry, advertising, content industry development.

From the development of on-board computer product shape, double set (2din) specification is the ultimate car PC development, to be able to fit the shape of the vast majority of mainstream models. The world and China Taiwan region some technology companies are actively developing dual (2din) car PC.

5, car computers installation requirements:

5.1 install basic principles: security, stability, and hidden.

5.2 hardware components:

5.2.1 preparations

Due to the particularities of the on-board computer, in the car PC before construction, car PC full desktop link debug, identify the connector and all features are available after loading. When you debug in the desktop environment, car PC data cable length according to the actual construction of the required length.

Determine the required installation location, continued on vehicle original electronic equipment, the installer should know whether installed other automotive electronics products, because of different electronic products between non-adjusted interference. Check whether the normal car battery voltage. Check vehicle whether foil, to avoid auto film on the GPS receiver of the shield, as necessary, be placed outside the car.

USB-HUB and USB devices shall be in accordance with the safe, easy-to-use principle is installed in the appropriate location inside the car. Specific location because of the different models and actors need to be specified.

5.2.2 installation requirements

5.2.2.1 wiring

Cable, power cable wiring separation, no two line class with strapping (Note: the data cable and power cord in the table below)


5.2.2.2 wire protection

Effective use of PVC double wall corrugated pipes, heat-shrinkable tubes, insulating blanket protection for wire rod.

5.2.2.3 checking and debugging

Vehicle after the installation is complete, the entire car check, determine all parts have been recovered, fixed, check tool.

5.2.3 wire standard selection and installation

5.2.3.1 power cable standard

5.2.3.2 wire installation

Car PC power cord to a properly protected from and produces high temperature or destructive components such as: automotive, internal wiring, electric motor, travel computer, exhaust pipes or fan, etc. Power cable should be fixed for each interval 30cm-40cm strapping, and neat routing environment into account.

From battery cathode extend to car PC power supply with power cord, shall, through the engine room of the firewall before retrofitting a 40cm within the fuse. Fuse of the installation location you want to clear, and in the installation, the installation location for the fuse. Guarantee in the event of a problem in 5 minutes to change jobs.

Adding fuse's main role is to prevent short-circuit protection of power in a timely manner. If not installed fuse or fuse amp value too large can cause spontaneous combustion power cord, and possible serious fire.

5.2.3.3 power cord from power

When installed, shall be repeated using electricity meters to confirm the polarity is correct. Avoid using a cigarette lighter as the source of the electro-Hsi ядн often can the Hsi cigarette lighter is not delivered enough current to the on-board computer.

Power of positive and negative level should be taken directly from the battery. Due to the particularities of the on-board computer, separate from strictly prohibited during construction, and positive-negative ground.

Positive and negative-level wholly removed electricity main role is to prevent a total disruption, as well as audio in some bad phenomenon.

5.2.3.4 the proper protection of wire connector and take the right measures of protection

All wires are to pay attention to the connector. Wire step line path if you must go through the humid environment, the joints must be done well and moisture-resistant treatment to avoid suffering from corrosion.

In addition, all + 12V conductor surface, do not conductive. All through the metal plate and wire, online hole you want to use the Eraser button eyes or sheathed protection.

Installation USB cable and power cord should be avoided, wiring bundles the is prohibited from using USB cable for 90 ° bend, to ensure that the USB cable is connected to the vehicle parallel to the host computer.

In the construction of the first Visual need USB cable length, use one-time connection to avoid multiple USB extension cord is used, or the use of a power to extend the USBHUB signal attenuation reducing to a minimum. Unavoidable circumstances, be used with signal amplification functions of a separate USB cable normally cord length should not exceed 5 metres.

USB interface itself with a fixed capacity. In the connect to the car PC after seated you can reach the host, USB cable, please reserve 20cm long distance. Ease of future repairs.

5.2.3.5.3 RS232/serial port

Car PC with a serial port for touch-screen used. In the construction of wiring, prohibit the serial line for 90 ° bend. Try to ensure that the serial line parallel to connect to a host of on-board computer.

If a serial line length is insufficient, you can use the car PC specifications same serial extension cord.

5.2.3.5.4 PS2 interface

Mouse/keyboard interface, and purple for keyboard interface, green for the mouse connector.

Under normal circumstances this device do not need to install. If you need to install wireless mouse and keyboard, use original equipment comes with cable access.

5.2.3.5.5 parallel interface

Under normal circumstances this device do not need to install, such as the need to install the parallel interface device, using the original equipment comes with cable access.

5.2.3.5.6 audio interface

Standard 3.5mm audio interface.

In the construction of the first Visual need audio cable length, audio cable, with shielding required

Wiring, care should be taken to protect the audio cable, each connection joints should be well insulated protection.

5.2.3.5.6 LCD installation

Retractable LCD Panel boxes have to be very close to the LCD screen. Retractable LCD Panel of the box to the edge of the location to install and maintain the formation and the smallest gap.

LCD installation location must not influence the safety while driving. After opening the LCD Panel shall not affect the driver's line of sight.

5.2.3.5.7 car PC host installation
