Alpine iva-w205 & PXA-h701

[u1cracka]

Does the Alpine iva-w205 have full con troll over the Alpine pxa-h701.

or do you lose some functions unless you use the RUX-C701 controller with it.

the reason i ask is In the IVA-w205 manual it say this.

(When an external audio processor is connected to this unit, you can

operate it from this unit. Some audio processors may not be operated.

In this case, operate them in the connected product. Explanations below

are the case when PXA-H700 or PXA-H701 is connected for example.

Refer also to the operating instructions of the connected audio

processor.

• The adjustments or settings performed on the connected audio

processor cannot be operated properly from this unit.

• The setting “Setting the Speakers”, “Setting Bass Sound Control”,

and “Graphic Equalizer Adjustments” are not available if the MRAD550

is connected. Additionally, if the MRA-F350 is connected, the

following setting “Setting the MX mode” is not available. Also, the

setting content differs between the PXA-H700 and PXA-H701.

• This unit cannot be connected to the PXA-H510 and PXA-H900.)

What does this mean anyone know and for people that have this combo do you use the fiber optic cable. other then turning optical output on the deck on do you have to turn anything on the pxa-h701 on to use the fiber optic input

the only thing that you shouldn't be able to do without the rux-c701 is the auto time alignment. Everything else should work.

thanks for the reply

I was looking @ the manuals for both units and in the manual for the iva-w205 it does not say anything about selecting fiber optic input on the PDA-h701 to digital.

I looked @ the manual for the PDA-h701 and it says about going from analog to digital with the rux-c701

Thanks
