1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the iSimple® Media Gateway. The Media Gateway is
designed to provide endless hours of listening pleasure from your factory radio.
To ensure that your SCC1 satellite radio tuner performs correctly with your radio,
we recommend that you read this entire manual before attempting installation of
the Media Gateway.
The Media Gateway allows connectivity for Sirius Satellite Radio tuner (SCC1
sold seperately) enabling full control of this device from the factory installed
radio. It also retains original system features such as rear seat entertainment (if
equipped).
2. Precautions
PREVENTING DAMAGE TO YOUR VEHICLE OR IPOD.
To eliminate the risk of an electrical short, we recommend disconnecting the
vehicle’s battery prior to installation. If you do not feel comfortable making these
connections, we suggest you seek professional installation.
PROPER MOUNTING LOCATION
Securely install the interface in a location free from: heat, humidity, moving parts,
sharp metal edges or direct sunlight. We recommend securing the interface to a
suitable location using; double sided tape, VelcroTM or zip-ties.

3. Compatibility
Your vehicle MUST either be equipped with, or have the ability to support
application information and to verify your vehicle’s compatibility.
4. Dipswitch Settings
All 4 dipswitches MUST be set in the OFF (up) position for proper operation.

5. Installation
1. When making electrical connections it is always recommended that the vehicle’s
battery be disconnected from the electrical system before performing the installation.
2. Carefully remove the trim panels covering the 8mm bolts that secure the radio into
the dash cavity. Remove these bolts, and carefully pull the radio from the dash of the
vehicle. This will provide access to the factory radio connectors where you will
connect the Media Gateway harness.
3. Disconnect the factory 14-Pin harness (if present) from the back of the radio.
4. When connecting the Satellite Radio tuner (SCC1 sold separartely), make the
folllowing connections before connecting the PXAMG to the vehicle. Plug the black
end of the 3 foot PXAMGSR (8-Pin mini-din to 8-Pin mini-din) into the second port
(closest to the dipswitches) on the Media Gateway. Connect the gray end of this cable
into the Satellite Radio tuner.
5. When connecting the auxiliary cable, plug the 8 pin mini-din into the port farthest
fromthedipswitches. Carefullyruntheauxiliarycabletothelocationwheretheauxiliary
device will be stored. If you are using the RCA input it may be necessary to run the
auxiliary device’s output cable to the PXAMG location.
6. Plug the male connector on the PGHHD1 harness into the 14-pin port on the back
of the radio. Next, connect the factory 14-pin harness (if present) into the female
connector on the PGHHD1 harness. Be sure to make a firm connection but do not
force it. Plug the Black micro-fit 24-pin connector on the PGHHD1 harness into the
PXAMG Media Gateway box.
PLEASE NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with a factory satellite radio tuner
it will have to be disconnected at the tuner location in order for the PXAMG to
function properly.
7. To complete the installation secure the Media Gateway (PXAMG) and Satellite
Radio tuner (SCC1) into the cavity in the dash behind the radio. Be sure that the
cables and interface modules are not near moving parts or sharp metal edges as they
may damage the cables. To prevent rattling noises inside the dash, use zip ties, tape,
or other fasteners to mount the interfaces securely.
8. With all connections made, reconnect the vehicle’s battery, insert the key into the
ignition, and turn the vehicle on. Check for proper operation of the Media Gateway and
Satellite Radio tuner before reinstalling the factory dash panels.
9. Note: The first time you access the Gateway, your radio may display “DEV INIT”
while the device is initializing. If this is displayed, please wait one minute then cycle the
ignition off and on. Then access SAT mode again to begin normal gateway operation.
