Monitor/DVD-player




Monitor/DVD-player is central unit in the system for roof-mounted rear seat entertainment. Monitor and DVD-player are integrated and located in the roof between the front seats.
The unit interprets and performs the commands given by the user with the system's infrared remote control. Via external inputs (AV-panel), other audio and video sources can be connected, e.g., game pads or video cameras.
The monitor is an 8 inch TFT LCD-screen with a size format of 16:9 and with a 120 degree horizontal viewing angle. The monitor is manually adjustable in x-axis and via remote control adjustable in Y-axis.
The monitor is adapted to both PAL as well as NTSC.
The DVD-player mechanism has an anti-shock system and it helps to prevent the image or sound skipping when played. The DVD-player has Slot-in disc insertion and region coding programmed into the software. The region code can be changed using a security code.
The DVD-player has memory handling to remember where, e.g., in a film different power cut-off's occurred.
The system has 30-feed, that is, supplied directly from the battery. However, there is a signal that informs when the ignition turns off, and a question appears on the monitor if the system is to be active for another hour. Then the system will be shut off automatically and the ignition must be turned on again to start the system. There is also a voltage monitor that turns off the system when the battery voltage is too low.
The built-in loudspeakers can be turned off/on independent of the headphones.
To be able to select external audio and video sources there is an AUX-connection on the back of the unit. 3xRCA for video (yellow) and audio (red and white). AUX-inputs can be used to input signals from video camera, video game pad, VHS-video, MP3-player, portable DVD- or CD-player.

The following media formats can be played by the DVD player:
