The radio is a CAN node through which information is exchanged with the Body Computer and with the other electronic units.

The radio receives the vehicle on signal via the CAN and is operated according to the following logic:

  • if the radio is on and the vehicle is off, the radio switches off;
  • if the vehicle is switched on and the radio was on previously, the radio remains on;
  • if the vehicle is switched on and the radio was off previously, the radio remains off;
  • if the radio is left on with the ignition OFF, it switches off automatically after 20 minutes;
The radio is equipped with an anti-theft system through the connection of the radio at the CAN with the Body ComputerWhen a new radio is fitted on the vehicle a connection is made with the Body Computer which requests the radio code: this code, supplied by the manufacturer, is entered using the numerical keys, the Body Computer memorizes this code and verifies it each time the radio is turned on.For more details    Characteristic of working principle 5570 ACCESSORIESor    Characteristic of working principle 5580N INTERGRATED CONTROL SYSTEM (ICS) PANEL)- The radio also controls the volume linked to the vehicle speed: the volume increases and decreases in relation to the speed of the vehicle: this information reaches the radio node via the CAN.Some versions are equipped with a series of buttons on the steering wheel: these make it possible to replicate some of the commands which are acquired in the same way by the actual radio.The radio controls shown on the radio display are also duplicated on the instrument panel.
