MAIN FEATURES

This adaptor allows you to retain the factory fitted BMW DSP amplifier sound system in your BMW or Range Rover L322 when you are changing the factory radio to a new after-market head unit. This adaptor consists of a voltage regulator, audio circuits (inputs and outputs) circuits form a digital signal amplifier control and the control of the micro-controller. This device allows the exchange of the original Land Rover radio / navigation system to a third-party after-market product, therefor the Original Land Rover/BMW DSP amplifier remains in the vehicle and can be used with the new after-market head unit.

 

Suitable for all Range Rover Vogue L322 (2002-2004) vehicles with BMW DSP system and of course the BMW X5, 5-Series and 7-Series with the original BMW XKQ000030 DSP amp.

 

The adaptor inputs (RCA L / R) are designed for signal of 1 volt. The adaptor turns the DSP amplifier in the following manner a: volume / tone - to maximum balance - to 0, Fader - to 0. So the volume, tone and balance controls are directly controlled on the radio. In this case when all speakers are connected to amplifiers (front and rear), the FADER control is not supported. If only the front speakers are connected to the amplifier and rear speakers directly to the radio, then the FADER can be controlled.

 

The kit consists of the interface module and a set of 5m RCA extension cables.

 

INSTALLATION NOTE: This is not a plug and play adaptor. You need to manually wire the cables to the relevant wires going into the DSP amplifier by "piggy-backing" onto them. The interface has two sets of x4 cables, which to help with the installation we will call them H#1 and H#2.

 

H#1 consists of Yellow, Red, Black, Blue (This is the power side of things)

  1. Yellow (Remote) - Connect to the wire going into pin #4 on the large 15 pin amplifier plug.
  2. Red (Battery) - Connect to the wire going into pin #8 on the large 15 pin amplifier plug.
  3. Black (Earth) - Connect to the wire going into pin #15 on the large 15 pin amplifier plug.
  4. Blue (iBus) - Connect to the wire going into pin #5 on the small 18 pin amplifier plug (smallest plug connection on the amp)

 

H#2 consists of Yellow, Red, Black, Green (This is the Audio Out side of things)

  1. Yellow (Left Negative) - Connect to the wire going into pin #9 on the small 18 pin amplifier plug (smallest plug connection on the amp)
  2. Red (Left Positive) - Connect to the wire going into pin #18 on the small 18 pin amplifier plug (smallest plug connection on the amp)
  3. Black (Right Negative) - Connect to the wire going into pin #8 on the small 18 pin amplifier plug (smallest plug connection on the amp)
  4. Green (Right Positive) - Connect to the wire going into pin #17 on the small 18 pin amplifier plug (smallest plug connection on the amp)

 

The adaptor has a built-in audio circuits for sound transmission, made by differential circuit with balanced outputs. It is also possible to connect the audio output from the radio to the DSP amplifier without integrated audio controller circuits (in accordance with the illustration above). With this case, the signal level is reduced by half. Once the module is all connected, you then plug in the 5m RCA extension cables and they will plug into the Audio RCA sockets on the head unit.

 

Please Note: if the DSP amplifier is built by Philips, is one of the pairs' IN-R "or" IN-L "may be grounded at the amplifier.

 

VEHICLE COMPATIBILITY LIST:

 

Suitable for all Range Rover Vogue L322 (2002-2004) vehicles with BMW DSP system and of course the BMW X5, 5-Series and 7-Series with the original BMW XKQ000030 DSP amp.

 

  • BMW X5 (2000-2005)
  • BMW 5 Series [E39]
  • BMW 7 Series [E38]
