INSTALLA

TION

This section focuses on some of the vehicle considerations for installing your new Source Unit. Pre-

planning your system layout and best wiring routes will save installation time. When deciding on

the layout of your new system, be sure that each component will be easily accessible for making

adjustments.

CAUTION: If you feel unsure about installing this system yourself, have it installed

by a qualified technician.

CAUTION: Before installation, disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal to

prevent damage to the unit, fire and/or possible injury.

Before beginning any installation, follow these simple rules:

1. Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before attempting to install the Unit.

2. For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to beginning the installation.

3. For easier assembly, we suggest you run all wires prior to mounting your Source Unit in place.

4. Route all of the RCA cables close together and away from any high current wires.

5. Use high quality connectors for a reliable installation and to minimize signal or power loss.

6. Think before you drill! Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks, fuel lines, brake or hydraulic

lines, vacuum lines or electrical wiring when working on any vehicle.

7. Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires inside the vehicle provides the best

protection.

8. Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or plastic grommets to protect any

wires routed through metal, especially the firewall.

9. ALWAYS protect the battery and electrical system from damage with proper fusing. Install the

appropriate fuse holder and fuse on the +12V power wire within 18” (45.7 cm) of the battery

terminal.

10. When grounding to the chassis of the vehicle, scrape all paint from the metal to ensure a good,

clean ground connection. Grounding connections should be as short as possible and always be

connected to metal that is welded to the main body, or chassis, of the vehicle.

MOUNTING LOCATIONS

The mounting position of your source unit will have a great effect on the performance of your

in-dash CD Player. The source unit can be installed in a wide range of operating locations.

However, care should be taken to ensure optimum performance.

Engine Compartment

Never mount this unit in the engine compartment. Mounting the unit in the engine compartment

will void your warranty.

Instrument Panel

Mounting the source unit in the instrument panel provides optimum access. The source unit should

be securely mounted using the “Standard Mount” or “ISO-DIN Mount” method to ensure optimum

CD Player performance.

Center Console

Mounting the source unit in the center console provides optimum access. Be sure the installation

does not interfere with the operation of the gear shift or parking brake. The source unit should have

a mounting angle within ±20° from horizontal.

INSTALLA

TION

Glove Box

Mounting the source unit in the glove box is adequate, but does not provide easy access. Glove box

mounting should only be done if “Instrument Panel” or ”Center Console,” mounting is not

acceptable (i.e., maintaining integrity of older vehicles with metal dashboards.) The source unit

should be mounted within ±20° from horizontal.

Under Dash

Mounting the source unit under the dash is adequate, but does not provide easy access. Under dash

mounting should only be done if “Instrument Panel,” ”Center Console” or ”Glove Box” mounting is

not acceptable. Mount the source unit off to the side of the driver's area to reduce interference with

the parking brake, gear shift, or operating pedals. The source unit should be mounted within ±20°

from horizontal.

STANDARD MOUNT

Installing;

• Mount the Locks for the Installation Sleeve

onto the source unit (use supplied screws).

• Mount the Installation Sleeve into a secure

instrument panel.

NOTE: Make sure to mount the Source Unit as

close to horizontal as possible for

optimum CD Player performance.

Mounting Angles of up to ±20˚ from

horizontal can be accommodated.

• Bend Appropriate Tabs on all sides of the

installation sleeve. See Installation Sheet.

• Install Source Unit by sliding unit into installation sleeve until it clicks into place.

• Mount Back Strap securely behind the instrument panel to prevent source unit vibration.

• Back strap Screw should be 6mm max (use supplied screw).

• Connect Antenna to antenna jack on rear of source unit.

Removal;

• Disconnect Back Strap from rear of radio (if used).

• Remove Trim Piece from front of radio.

• Insert Release Keys into left and right sides of source unit to

disengage locks.

• Remove Source Unit from installation sleeve with release keys.

ISO-DIN MOUNT

Installing;

• Remove Trim Piece and Installation Sleeve from source

unit.

• Factory Bracket should align with two mounting holes

on each side of source unit.

• ISO Screws should be 6mm max (use supplied screws).

• Connect Antenna to antenna jack on rear of source

unit.

WIRING THE SYSTEM

NOTE: See diagram on following page to help you connect your system.

CAUTION: If you do not feel comfortable with wiring your new source unit, please

see your local Authorized Rockford Fosgate Dealer for installation.

CAUTION: Before installation, disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal to

prevent damage to the unit, fire and/or possible injury.

1. Install the 16-Pin Power Harness by connecting the corresponding wires to the electrical and

audio system. Solder and heat shrink all connections for a reliable installation. For each

connection, cut a 1" piece of heat shrink tubing and slide over one of the wires. Strip each wire

3/8" then twist together and solder. Slide the tubing over the connection and shrink the tubing

with a hot air gun until no bare wire is exposed.

2. Connect the BLACK (Ground) wire to chassis ground. Prepare the chassis ground by scraping

any paint from the metal surface and thoroughly clean the area of all dirt and grease. Strip the

end of the wire and attach a ring connector. Fasten the wire to the chassis using a non-anodized

screw and star washer.

3. Connect the YELLOW (Backup) wire to a source of constant +12V (for retaining memory on

user-programmed functions). The source should always have +12V, even when the ignition is off

and the car is not running.

4. Connect the RED (ACC +B) wire (Ignition) to a source of switched +12V (is on only when

ignition key is in “accessory” or “run” position). Connect the RED wire to a switched +12 volt

positive source. The switched signal is usually taken from the ACC (accessory) position of the

ignition. If the vehicle does not have an ACC position, connect the wire to the switched ON

position of the ignition.

5. Connect the LT. BLUE (Remote B+) wire to the “Remote Turn-On” leads of the amplifier(s). This

will turn-on the external amplifiers when the source unit is powered on.

6. Connect the BLUE/RED (Auto Ant.) wire to the “Power Antenna” lead. This will raise a fully

automatic antenna when the source unit is powered on, but only in Tuner Mode.

7a. Connecting Speakers (Not using external amplifier)

Connect the Speaker Wires to the corresponding speaker leads by soldering and heat shrinking

all connections for a reliable installation. If only one pair of speakers is utilized in the system,

use only the FRONT speaker leads and heat shrink the unused REAR leads to prevent from

shorting out. Be sure to maintain speaker polarity. DO NOT chassis ground any speaker leads as

unstable operation may result.

7b. Connecting Speakers (Using external amplifier)

Install the Preamp Output Harness by plugging the RCA cables into the corresponding extension

RCAs that feed the input of the amplifiers. Be sure to route the signal cables away from any high

current wires to prevent coupling noise from radiated electrical fields into the audio signal. The

FRONT OUTPUT connects to the Front speaker's amplifier. The REAR OUTPUT connects to the

Rear speaker's amplifier.

8. Connect the Antenna by plugging the antenna cable into the connector located at the rear of the

source unit. Be sure the antenna is securely grounded to the vehicle for proper radio reception.

OPERATION – MP3 (MODEL 9120 ONLY)

MP3 Player Operation — Basic Playing

NOTE: RFX players do not recognize MP3 CDs created on a Macintosh OS.

NOTE: RFX players recognize MP3’s recorded on either CD-R or CD-RW discs.

With support for multi-session as well.

NOTE: Playability may depend on the type of CD-R/CD-RW used, CD surface condition, CD writer

performance and condition and/or software used. For more information, visit our website.

To Play an MP3 Disc

1. Press OPEN button and the Front Panel will slide open.

2. Insert a CD into the slot with the label side facing up.

3. Close the front panel by pressing the lower right corner inward.

4. The panel will display "READING CD" for 15 to 20 seconds when the CD is first inserted. Then the

title of the CD followed by the name of the first folder the then name of the song in that folder. You

can select between the name of the song and track number with time played by pressing the DISP

button.

5. Use DIR / Buttons to move through the songs.

6. When scrolling through a large number of files, use the 5 button (T/+10) to go forward ten (10) songs

at a time, or the 4 Button (T/-10) to go back ten (10) songs at a time.

NOTE: Random (RDM), repeat (RPT), PAUSE, SCAN and Fast Forward/Fast Reverse work the same as a

regular CD.

Negotiating the MP3 Directory

The ROOT Level

The ROOT Level contains the name of the disc, but no folder or song information. The first song on the

disc will automatically begin playing when a disc is inserted.

Directly Selecting a Song by Title

The MP3 file management system is a folder-based system similar to the Windows™ File Manager.

Because of this, the DIR / (UP and DOWN) keys function differently than they do in CD Mode.

Instead of going forward or backward through your disc respectively, they go up and down through the file

list.

1. Press the ROOT button and the display will show the disc name. The display will then immediately

switch to show the name of the first folder on the disc and display it for 5 seconds. If no action is

taken during this 5 second period, the display will default back to the song currently playing.

2. While the name of the first folder is showing, press the DOWN button to scroll through the list of

folders. Press the UP button to scroll back up through the folders.

3. Press the BAND (Enter) button and "

••

" will be displayed, indicating you are in the folder.

4. Press the DOWN button to scroll through the items (songs or sub-folders) contained in the selected

folder. Press the UP button to scroll back through the items.

NOTE: The item (song or sub-folder) name will remain displayed for 5 seconds in steps 1 through 4

above. If no action is taken during this 5 second period, the display will default back to the song

currently playing.

5. Press ENTER to select the song to play or the next sub-folder. If entering a sub-folder, return to step 3.

OPERATION – MP3 (MODEL 9120 ONLY)

DOWN Button

When playing an MP3 track and the DOWN button is pressed, the player will take you to the beginning of

the same track as long as the playing track has been playing for more than 10 seconds. If the track is within

10 seconds of its beginning, pressing the DOWN button will take the player to the beginning of the

previous track.

Direct Track Access

Direct Track Access allows any track to be immediately selected and played. This method is faster than

manually cycling through each track on the disc. MP3's work with a three (3) digit access.

1. Press the T-ACC button once to select Direct Track Access mode.

2. Press the number, 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-0, to access the desired track on the disc.

EXAMPLE: Pressing the T-ACC button, then 021 takes you to track 21, pressing 12 takes you to track 12 and so

forth. Pressing just one (1) or two (2) digits, 11, and the ENTER button will take you to track 11.

Without pressing ENTER, the system will go to the track after 5 seconds.

Direct Search

On this system, you can search the disk by title.

1. Press the T-ACC button twice (2 times) to enter into the search mode. A "_" will flash on the display.

2. Turn the volume knob to select a character located in the title of the song you want.

3. Press the volume knob to select that character and move to the next. A maximum of ten (10)

characters can be selected.

NOTE: Pressing the volume knob when no character has been selected will give you a space.

4. Press the BAND (Enter) button to find the first item on the disk with your selection. If none are found,

"NOT FOUND" will show on the display.

5. Use the DIR (DOWN) button to go forward through the list of items found.

6. Press the BAND (Enter) button to select that item.

EXAMPLE: Selecting the characters "RO" may find the words "ROmance" or "ROad". Either could be in the title

of a song or folder. Pressing the BAND (Enter) button will either select the folder or begin playing

the song that matches your selection. Narrow your selection by using more letters.

Maximum Writing Speed and Bit Depth

The maximum speed of the CD ROM burner accepted by the RFX units is 12X. The maximum bit rate

range possible is 32kb/sec–320kb/sec. For best performance of scrolling display, before creating a file

system in your CDR burning program, select the CD layout properties menu and file system tabs. Use

JOLIET file format, this allows a maximum of 32 upper and lowercase scrolling characters to be displayed.

NOTE: Make sure that when a MP3 CD is burned that it is formatted as a data disc and NOT as an audio

disc.

Directory Structure

The MP3 directory is set up in three levels and is comprised of

three components: (1) the Root, (2) Folders, and (3) Songs.

Songs are played in the order and level in which they are

located. As shown in the diagram to the right, all songs in Level

2 are played before the songs contained in Level 3 or lower.

These levels are descriptive of the function of having songs in

folders and sub-folders. Any song in a level below Level 3 is

treated as though it were in Level 3, but will play in the level

order as shown. The songs in the diagram at the right are

numbered in the order they will play.

NOTE: Pressing the ROOT button will take you to the root

directory. Pressing ROOT a second time will take you

back where you started.
