Features/Description

The Alpine TCS-V430A is a sophisticated Multi-zone, AV Controller with a built-in TV tuner (designed for U.S. broadcasts only). It realizes an across-the-board entertainment system for the mobile environment by creating individual AV spaces for each occupant. With the ability to select up to 4 AV sources (including the the built-in TV Tuner) and 3 outputs, 3 separate monitors can be controlled independently. The TV tuner is a high performance, 4-channel diversity, stereo (MTS) receiver, capable of receiving both standard broadcasts as well as cable (181 channels total). In addition, a special interface allows easy expansion using Alpine’s overhead monitors.

!WARNING

It is dangerous and illegal for the driver to watch TV/Video while driving any vehicle. The driver may be distracted from looking ahead and an accident could occur.

AV Expansion using Alpine’s Overhead Monitors

The TCS-V430A is easily expanded when either of Alpine’s Overhead Monitor units (TMX- R680A/R705) are connected. Each of the Overhead Monitors has 2 additional AV inputs. When connected to the TCS-V430A with the KCE-508V extension DIN, the second AV input will be available. To simplify this switching further, even when the source is selected from the overhead monitor, the AV Controller will be switched automatically and source information will be displayed in the OSD.
