Alpine iLX-F115DU8 multimedia car radio

Alpine iLX-F115DU8 multimedia car radio

Main features

• 11-inch WXGA HD display - The large 11-inch WXGA touchscreen display has a resolution of 1280 x 720p and contains more than 2.7 million pixel elements - making icons, menus and visual content on the dashboard extremely sharp and vivid. The screen is attached to an adjustable bracket attached to the Ducato 8 radio dock, leaving a free 1DIN pocket underneath to store smaller items.
• Wireless Apple CarPlay - The iLX-F115DU8 "works with Apple CarPlay" wirelessly, allowing iPhone users to make and receive calls, access and write text messages, play music and get directions so they can focus on the road. Apple CarPlay is accessible via the capacitive touchscreen or the microphone button to activate Siri voice control. Thanks to the WiFi connection, you can keep your iPhone in your pocket and not have to plug it in all the time (except for charging).
• Simple control from the steering wheel - if your Ducato is equipped with steering wheel control buttons, you can also use them with the iLX-F115DU8. The Alpine system is fully integrated with the vehicle's electronics and accepts all driving controls such as volume control, phone answer and reject buttons, voice control and mute.
• Wide options for entertainment and online navigation - the brand new DAB / radio tuner enables DAB - FM switching and allows you to enjoy smooth radio reception without interruption. In addition to the extended USB video playback formats (MP4, MOV, FLV, MKV), the Alpine Halo 11 offers many other entertainment options: the built-in Bluetooth module allows audio streaming from the phone and the HDMI input allows the connection of an external video playback device. You can of course use Android Auto with any compatible Android smartphone (wired connection).
• The world's first head unit with a built-in Class D amplifier - the iLX-F115DU8 is the world's first aftermarket head unit to feature a built-in 4x 50W Class D amplifier - enabling excellent high-end sound reproduction with highly reduced noise or phase shift. A key advantage of Class D amplification technology is its high efficiency of around 90% compared to 50-70% of Class AB amplifiers. New high-speed fans with internal heatsinks keep your Alpine Halo 11 cool - and playing music.
• Enjoy excellent sound quality - thanks to the 56-band parametric EQ in advanced mode, 2-band digital X-over, 6-channel digital time correction and several Bass Engine SQ and MediaXpander sound tuning options, you have excellent tools for tuning your Alpine Halo 11 and connected amplifier / speaker system to perfection. But we don't stop there: Alpine Halo 11 is Hi-Res Audio certified and can decode and play Hi-Res Audio files up to 96kHz / 1.536kbps from USB sources in uncompressed supported formats such as FLAC, WAV and APE.
• Drive-Assist cameras - a reversing camera is a great way to ensure safer reversing. The camera image automatically turns on when you put the gear into reverse, and distance guides appear on the screen, which can be adjusted to match the size of your Ducato, so you can safely park your motorhome.
• External Wireless Controller - The separately available RUE-BK01 control knob connects wirelessly to the Alpine Halo 11 and can be installed on the left or right side of the touch screen. Alternatively, you can also place the control knob anywhere else in the vehicle with a simple DIY installation. Turning the knob adjusts the head unit's volume output, while pressing it activates the rear camera on the screen. Note: This control knob has no function when wireless Apple CarPlay is active.
• Freely adjustable viewing angle - You can adjust the viewing angle of the iLX-F115DU8 from +45 degrees to -20 degrees to match a wide range of dashboard angles. You can freely adjust the viewing angle at any time to achieve the best visibility and prevent glare from sunlight.
• Adjustable height and distance of the display - the height of the display can be adjusted +/- 3 cm from the center position. This allows for full-standing or hanging display configurations, as well as everything in between. You can also adjust the distance between the display and the instrument panel in the range of 20 mm. After selecting the height of the display and the distance to the dashboard, everything locks into place.
• Pre-drive inspection - most damage to motorhomes occurs because the vehicle was not fully prepared for use. Alpine's on-screen control can be fully customized to your vehicle and will remind you before you start driving to make sure the throttle is off, all tables and doors are locked, satellite dishes are retracted, etc.
• Including custom frame and mounting brackets for Fiat Ducato 8 - iLX-F115DU8 includes custom frame, installation brackets, cable harness with CAN interface and antenna adapter. The CAN interface retains the use of remote control buttons on the steering wheel.
