PRECAUTIONS

s GUIDE FOR INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS FOR AUTHORIZED ALPINE DEALERS Please read this GUIDE FOR INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS FOR AUTHORIZED ALPINE DEALERS and the OWNERS MANUAL thoroughly to familiarize yourself with each control and function. We at ALPINE hope that your new NVE-N852A will give you many years of enjoyment. In case of problems when installing your unit, please contact your authorized ALPINE dealer. USE ONLY IN CARS WITH A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE GROUND. (Check with your dealer if you are not sure.) Failure to do so may result in fire, etc. BEFORE WIRING, DISCONNECT THE CABLE FROM THE NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or injury due to electrical shorts. DO NOT ALLOW CABLES TO BECOME ENTANGLED IN SURROUNDING OBJECTS. Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the manual to prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstruct or hang up on places such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake pedals, etc. can be extremely hazardous. DO NOT SPLICE INTO ELECTRICAL CABLES. Never cut away cable insulation to supply power to other equipment. Doing so will exceed the current carrying capacity of the wire and result in fire or electric shock. DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WHICH MIGHT HINDER VEHICLE OPERATION, SUCH AS THE STEERING WHEEL OR GEARSHIFT. Doing so may obstruct forward vision or hamper movement etc. and results in serious accident. DO NOT DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING HOLES. When drilling holes in the chassis for installation, take precautions so as not to contact, damage or obstruct pipes, fuel lines, tanks or electrical wiring. Failure to take such precautions may result in fire. DO NOT ALTER HARDWARE USED IN ANY SAFETY-RELATED SYSTEMS DURING INSTALLATION Never use hardware, utilized to mount critical components in the steering and brake systems or fuel tanks, to make wiring or ground connections. Failure to take such precautions can result in serious damage from fire or vehicle failure.
Points to Observe for Safe Usage
For safe operation of this system, please read this manual carefully. We cannot be responsible for problems resulting from failure to observe the instructions in this manual.

For installation of the main unit, avoid areas with a high incidence of dust or moisture. Installing the unit in such locations may result in contamination of the DVD ROM making it unreadable. Do not install the navigation system near a CD player that may interfere with GPS signal reception. The optimum locations for installing the GPS antenna are: on the dashboard where no metal piece (such as the defogger wire or antenna wire) is located on the windshield. where no metal cover is located. Route the Speed Pulse Sensor cable away from the audio cables in order to avoid picking up noises.

Caution

HAVE THE WIRING AND INSTALLATION DONE BY EXPERTS. The wiring and installation of this unit requires special technical skill and experience. To ensure safety, always contact the dealer where you purchased this product to have the work done. USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND INSTALL THEM SECURELY. Be sure to use only the specified accessory parts. Use of other than designated parts may damage this unit internally or may not securely install the unit in place. This may cause parts to become loose resulting in hazards or product failure. DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WITH HIGH MOISTURE OR DUST. Avoid installing the unit in locations with high incidence of moisture or dust. Moisture or dust that penetrates into this unit may result in product failure. ARRANGE THE WIRING SO IT IS NOT CRIMPED OR PINCHED BY A SHARP METAL EDGE. Route the cables and wiring away from moving parts (like the seat rails) or sharp or pointed edges. This will prevent crimping and damage to the wiring. If wiring passes through a hole in metal, use a rubber grommet to prevent the wires insulation from being cut by the metal edge of the hole.

Before Installing the System

Mounting the ECU

Find a suitable location for the ECU. Avoid any moving parts, places where moisture can arise, or locations near extreme heat. Locations such as under the front seats, or hanging from the rear package tray work the best. Caution: The ECU must be mounted horizontal (less than 5). The gyro sensor is mounted inside the ECU and will not work properly when the unit is mounted on its side. Keep this in mind when choosing a mounting location.

Wiring

To wire the NVE-N852A is about as simple as wiring a cellular phone or a head unit. There are only seven wires to connect on the main harness. The remaining wire should be used for connecting to a device having the IN-INT (InInterrupt) function. Yellow. Battery(+) Black. Ground Red.. Ignition(+) White/Blue. Illumination(+) Green/White. Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) Yellow/Blue. Parking Brake (+) Pink/sky blue. To a device having the IN-INT function () Negative output for Audio Mute The basic connections for power, ground, ignition and illumination are very straight forward. The reverse light input is also a necessary connection. It can typically be found at the transmission switch, the main wire harness that runs to the taillights or at the reverse light itself. The navigation unit must know when the vehicle is driving in reverse, so dont overlook this connection. To transmit the state of the parking brake to the unit, connect the wire to the power supply side of the parking brake switch. The most difficult wire to find will be the VSS wire. This is where the Alpine Application Support team enters the picture. Simply call 1 (800) TECH-101 and speak with an application support specialist. We will fax you all of the necessary information about what color the wire is and where to find it. For the after hours or weekend installs, Alpine has a 24 hour Fast Fax line which can send the information with just a few key strokes on a touch tone phone. When calling, please have your dealer account number and the make, model and year of the vehicle available. The Alpine Fast Fax phone number is 1 (800) 978-9655 Caution: Some older vehicles may not have VSS wires. In this case you must install a speed pulse generator onto the speedometer cable.

Mounting the GPS antenna

The GPS antenna needs to be mounted in a location that is the most "visible" to the GPS satellites. Ideally, mounting the antenna on the top of the roof or on the trunk lid would be the best location. The GPS antenna typically can receive the needed signals when mounted inside of the vehicle, but some precautions must be taken to insure proper performance. First, try and mount the system in a location in the vehicle that allows for the best line-of-site performance. Locations such as the rear package tray or front dash work the best. Secure the antenna with double sided tape or silicone. Carefully route the antenna cable and connect it to the ECU. The cable is matched to its length, so do not shorten or extend. Avoid making sharp bends in the cable. Wind excess cable into large loops. Cautions: Care should be taken in finding the proper mounting location. Do not mount under any metal surface. Some window tinting material, with high metal content like tintanium, can reduce the GPS antennas reception. Also, some newer vehicles incorporate special heat resistant glass, Oldsmobile Aurora as an example, and will cause GPS reception problems. For these types of situations, it is best to install the GPS on the roof or the rear trunk lid, use a small amount of silicone or some double stick tape applied to the bottom of the antenna. This will prevent the magnetic base from moving and possibly scratching the paint on the vehicle.

Vehicle Speed Sensor Testing and Verification
For Digital Type Speed Sensor:
You will need a digital multimeter set to DC Volts at the 30 volt range or on auto-range. For front wheel drive, jack up only one of the front two tires. For rear wheel drive, jack up only one of the rear wheels. For vehicles with PosiTraction, you will need to jack up both of the drive line wheels. Be sure to use jack stands and block the remaining wheels to prevent the vehicle from rolling. Connect the Black lead of the multimeter to chassis ground. Probe the speed pulse wire with the Red lead. Turn the ignition key to the "ON" or "RUN" position, but do not start the vehicle. Read the multimeter. It should show either zero volts (off) or a voltage ranging from 5-12 volts (on). This voltage range will differ depending upon the vehicle, however it will not fluctuate. Rotate the tire slowly. The voltmeter should change state between zero volts (off) and 5-12 volts (on) or vice-versa within 2-3 rotations of the tire. You have now verified the digital speed pulse.
Resources For VSS Information
Alpine constantly performs research on a variety of vehicles and is currently compiling a database of VSS wire information. This information is available to you 24 hours a day on our Fast Fax line at 1 (800)978-9655. Please have your dealer account number ready when calling. If calling for first time and you do not know the document number you are requesting, please order document number 02 (Dealer Master Index). If you happen to come across a vehicle that is not listed in the database, please call Alpine Application Support at (800) TECH-101.

Testing The System

To allow the ECU to sync up with the GPS satellites you must park the vehicle outside in an open area. The GPS antenna has the best reception, away from tall buildings or trees. This process will take the system about 10 to 30 minutes to receive the GPS data and find the approximate vehicle location. Turn on the unit. Once the unit "wakes up" and the disclaimer screen appears, press the "ENTER" button. The map screen should appear. The vehicle icon may appear on a blank map screen (no roads are illustrated). This condition is normal. Also note the GPS signal icon located on the upper left hand corner of the screen. It is in the shape of a satellite, and will initially appear dark grey with a black background. Once the unit receives the GPS data, the GPS icon change color from dark grey (no reception), to light blue (minimum reception), and finally yellow (maximum reception). The vehicle icon should now be placed onto the map with your approximate vehicle location. Don't worry if your map position is a block or so away from your actual position, the system will correct itself as you drive. If the GPS icon does not change color in the specified time period, move the vehicle to another location or relocate the antenna and try again.

For Analog Type Speed Sensor
Analog speed pulse is measured as AC voltage, with reference to chassis ground. Due to varying AC voltages and frequencies, the only accurate way to verify an analog speed pulse is to use an oscilloscope. Using a digital multimeter, verify that the wire does not have a positive DC voltage by setting it to AC voltage at the 30 volt range or on auto-range. Connect the black lead of the multimeter to chassis ground. Probe the speed pulse wire with the red lead. The meter should read zero volts. Start the car and begin to drive slowly. It is a good idea to have someone with you in the vehicle to read the multimeter while you keep your eyes on the road. The meter should slowly begin to show an increase AC voltage will increase as well. Maximum AC voltage should be somewhere around 5-8 volts at 60 MPH. NOTE: Please do not confuse this process with checking the tachometer wire. The tach wire increases voltage with the engine's RPM. The speed pulse wire increases voltage with the vehicle's actual speed. If any of these conditions differ with your findings, please call Application Support at (800) TECH-101.

The Test Drive

The navigation system must be driven for about 10 to 15 minutes on actual roads for the map matching process to accurately place the vehicle in the correct position. Dont worry if the system has you driving in the wrong direction on the map. Also note that the grey bar on the bottom of the screen should display the current street name within this time period. The more you drive, the more the system will correct itself. If the vehicle icon does not move smoothly as you drive, or the street name does not appear on the bottom of the screen, you may not have the proper VSS wire. Double check your connections and verify the VSS wire once again.
What if the vehicle doesn't have a VSS wire ?
Most pre-1980 vehicle have mechanical speedometers and do not employ cruise control systems. Therefore, these vehicles may not have a VSS wire. Alpine speed pulse generator NVE-K300 is separately sold. This will magnetize the metal in the tire of the vehicle. The magnetic field created is sensed as a pulse during for each rotation of the tire. The number of tire rotations is used to calculate the vehicles speed. Not all vehicles can use this generator, but it can be a solution for most of these vehicles.

Self Calibration

It is normal that the system may not exactly follow the vehicle's path for about a day or so. The system is learning the vehicle. It is calibrating the speed pulse and gyro and checking it with the GPS. The more the vehicle is driven, the more accurate the system becomes. This is also true if the tire size is changed. The system may be a little off for a day or so but it will correct itself.

System Check

With the system on, please confirm the following items for proper operation: GPS reception: The GPS icon will be colored blue when the system receives 3 satellites and yellow when 4 or more satellites are received. Illumination: When the parking lights are on the screen should dim (the brightness can be controlled through the setup mode). Reverse: The vehicle will back up on the map when the vehicle is in reverse and moving backwards. Speed pulse (VSS): Just drive, if the VSS is correct, the vehicle will move with you and stop when you stop.
