We finally got our hands on the Eclipse Ipod interface for their AVN decks.
This thing is supposed to plug into through the Eclipse BUS connection and show up as a CD changer on the unit.
According to the manual the 5495 is listed as a compatible deck but for some reason we can't get the CD changer menu to pop up as an option meaning the deck is not sensing the connection.
However we can play the Ipod sound through the deck and it charges....however no control of the Ipod whatsoever through the deck!
There is a small box with 2 DIP switches and we've played with it in every combination possible.
Has anyone tried or got this interface to work? The IPC-106 is listed to be definitely compatible with the AVN-6600 which we have yet to try but I know many of you including me own a 5495 and want the Ipod function.
Let me know...we'll keep testing in the time being.
