Detailed product description:
The Gateway Lite BT is an integrated digital
media player
and
hands-free adapter
with Bluetooth technology, which works as a virtual CD-changer in your car.
Bluetooth profiles:
HFP:
Bluetooth hands-free profile for hands-free callings.
A2DP:
Advanced Audio Distribution Profile for streaming any kind of audio from your phone.
AVCRP:
Audio/Video Remote Control Profile with Bluetooth technology to enable the car's factory controls to manage your iPhone. With this, the head unit is able to command the phone e.g. accept or reject incoming phone calls, start music playing, change track, etc.
Because of this profiles is that possible, that certain cars, which have a hands-free function, cannot stream music or navigation on the factory sound system. A reason can be that the sound system does not include the A2DP profile, so you cannot stream music however you have handsfree in your car. This problem is solved with the Lite BT's different Bluetooth profiles.
Run through the CD-changer:
The Gateway Lite BT was developed for car brands without text display which has factory CD-changer, or pretreatment. The Lite BT is actually a CD-changer emulator, which means the car perceives it as a CD-changer.
That is why the notes at each compatibility are so important because sometimes only a button shows the difference if the car is able to handle a CD-changer.
With using the CD-changer is it possible to manage the connected devices (iPhone, iPod, USB stored music and folders) via the car's built-in controls. Every button on the head unit is for using the CD changer, and those buttons get new functions by the Gateway.
The call signal (ringing)
depends on the source of the audio content. In the simplest case, this source is the Gateway itself, because this way the device controls the sound and by muting the source, the phone can ring through the speakers.
Another, a little bit more difficult case is when the source is not the CD-changer, but another one like FM radio. In this case, the Gateway which has a mute cable connected to the head unit signals the incoming call by muting the volume periodically. By changing to CD-changer source we can accept the call immediately, or we can reject it by pushing the previous button right after the changing. The phone can stay in your pocket while calling.
You can choose if you want to use the car radio buttons or the phone itself to manage your calls. You can
accept, decline or hold the calls
with the with the radio,- or the steering wheel buttons.
The Gateway Lite BT is able to USB connection without any external accessories thanks to its own USB port so you are can listen to even nonstop music from USB flash drive if its storage capacity allows it.
The Lite BT works as a virtual CD-changer so the factory car radios perceive it as a 6 disc-capacity-CD-changer. Therefore it is able to manage 6 folders: 4 could store playlists and you can change tracks between them with the steering wheel buttons.
Connections:
You can connect older iPods with 30 pin connector which don't have Bluetooth only with an
accessory cable (IPDC1GW)
.
If you want to connect a device to the Gateway via AUX, choose the
CABL-AUX accessory
.
With some BMW models, the CD-changer is built in the trunk. If you want to access the Gateway anytime for example from the glove compartment use the 4,5m long
extension cable (EXT1GW1)
.
For what and how can you use it:
Pair with a Bluetooth-capable cellphone and use it as a sterling hands-free and music player.
You can accept, decline or hold the calls with the car's factory buttons.
Listen to music stored on USB (flash drive, mobile HDD or any other USB device) on your car factory audio system.
You can select USB folders with the buttons of the CD-changer.
Change tracks with steering wheel,- or the radio buttons
The further functions of the iPod are available on the car's original control (click-wheel).
In the most cases, installing the Gateway doesn't require a product-specific expertise. The main part of the installation is to access the wire harness behind the head unit to which the device will be connected (mostly hidden in the glove box department) and to lead off the external microphone to the inside mirror. However, we recommend entrusting a professional with the installation of Gateway.
The package contains a harness with the right connector that fits your car type. This makes a branch T so no soldering is needed, you only have to plug in the connectors. For a professional installer, this takes about an hour depending on the car brand. On the Youtube, you can find a lot of tutorials too
