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 iPod 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 iPod, Sirius Satellite Radio tuner

(SCC1 sold seperately) and the HD Radio tuner (HDRT sold separately), enabling

full control of these devices from the factory installed radio. It also retains original

system features such as satellite radio and rear seat entertainment (if equipped).

2. Precautions

UPDATING iPod FIRMWARE

For proper operation of the Media Gateway, your iPod must be updated with the most

recent version of ﬁrmware from Apple. This is done on your computer. To update the

software on the iPod go to: http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/.

Follow the directions on the website to complete the download. There is no charge for

this update.

PREVENTING DAMAGE TO YOUR VEHICLE OR IPOD.

Some installations require you to make wiring connections. 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. We recommend that the iPod be disconnected from the

interface when the vehicle is not in use.

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 Notes

This section will inform you of the speciﬁc requirements for your factory radio

to be compatible with the Media Gateway. These notes will inform you of any

issues or circumstances that can affect the compatibility of our product with your

radio, audio system, or accessories. Not all factory radios are compatible with

the Media Gateway. The Media Gateway will only work on models equipped with

the speciﬁcations listed below. Please read and understand these notes before

proceeding:

Radio Requirements

All 2005-2008, select 2009-2010 - All radios, navigation or non-navigation, that

feature an “AUX” or “SIRIUS” button are compatible.* In these vehicles the Media

Gateway emulates a satellite tuner, therefore it is required that the vehicle be either

equipped with an external satellite tuner or be Satellite Radio ready.

2009-2010 Navigation & Center Stack Radios – All navigation radios and non-

navigation center stack radios** that have an active SYNC system are compatible.*

In these vehicles the Media Gateway emulates the SYNC system, therefore it is

required that the vehicle be equipped with SYNC. All non-navigation radios (exclud-

ing vehicles equipped with the standard center stack radios**) that feature an “AUX”

or “SIRIUS” button are compatible.* In these vehicles the Media Gateway emulates

a satellite tuner, therefore it is required that the vehicle be either equipped with an

external satellite tuner or be Satellite Radio ready.

*Refer to www.isimplesolutions.com for the most updated compatibility information.

**Current vehicles equipped with center stack radio:

• 2009-2010 Ford F-150

• 2009 Ford Flex

• 2009 Lincoln MKS

• 2010 Ford Fusion

• 2010 Ford Mustang

• 2010 Lincoln MKZ

4. Programming the Media Gateway

(PXAMG)

The Media Gateway may need to be programmed before installation. To program

the interface you will need to set the dip switches located on the side of the interface

to the proper conﬁguration listed below. Prior to installation the switches are in their

default setting of “off” in the up position and are turned “on” when switched down.

Refer to the chart below.

4A. When installing the Media Gateway in

select 2005-2010 Ford vehicles that are either

equipped with Satellite Radio or are Satellite

Radio ready, and have an external satellite

tuner, all four dip-switches need to be OFF

(up) prior to installation.*

*In the event that iPod/HD Radio text appears on the radio

and audio is playing but control of the iPod/HD radio from

the radio buttons is lost,

1. Disconnect the Media Gateway from the vehicle harness

2. Switch dip-switch #1 to the ON position

3. Wait ﬁve minutes

4. Reconnect the Media Gateway interface to the vehicle

Control of the iPod from the radio controls will now be

possible.

4B. When installing the Media Gateway in

select 2009-2010 Ford vehicles that are

equipped with SYNC and have an internal

Satellite tuner** dipswitch 3 needs to be ON

(down) prior to installation.

** If there is a yellow Satellite Radio antenna plugged into the

radio then the satellite tuner is internal. If you are installing the

Media Gateway into a 2009 vehicle that has an external Satellite

tuner, please use the conﬁguration for 2005-2008 Ford vehicles.

4C. When installing the Media Gateway for

use with the SCC1 Sirius Satellite Radio

tuner, dipswitch 2 needs to be ON (down)

prior to installation.

4D. When installing the Media Gateway for

use as an auxiliary input, dipswitch 2 needs to

be ON (down) prior to installation.

5. Installation

IMPORTANT NOTE

If you are installing the Media Gateway into any of the following vehicles the PGHFD1A

harness is also required:

2008-2010 Ford Escape Non-Navigation

2009-2010 Ford F-150 Non Navigation

2009 Ford Flex Non-Navigation

2008-2010 Ford Focus

2008-2010 Mercury Mariner Non-Navigation

2009 Lincoln MKS Non-Navigation

2010 Ford Fusion Non-Navigation

2010 Ford Mustang Non-Navigation

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 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 24-Pin and 16-Pin harnesses from the back of the radio.

Disconnect the antenna from the radio.

4. Connect the 8-Pin iPod docking cable into the ﬁrst port on the Media Gateway

(farthest away from dipswitches). Carefully run the 11 foot iPod cable behind the dash

to the location where the iPod will be mounted or stored (for example the glove box

or center console). This location will vary based on the vehicle, and the customer’s

preference. When running this cable through the dash be sure to secure it away from

moving parts or sharp metal edges that may damage the cable.

5. If connecting the HD Radio Tuner (HDRT sold separartely), make the following

connections before connecting the PXAMG to the vehicle. Plug the 3 foot HD

Radio Cable (8-Pin mini-din to 8-Pin mini-din) into the second port (closest to the

dipswitches) on the Media Gateway. Connect the other end of this cable into the HD

Radio tuner. *Connect the factory antenna cable into the antenna connection on the

HD Radio tuner (HDRT). *Note This connection requires the use of a Best Kits BAA9

Antenna Adapter (or equivalent; sold seperately).

6. If 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 cable (8-Pin mini-din to 8-Pin mini-din; sold seperately) into the

second port (closest to the dipswitches) on the Media Gateway. If you are installing

the Satellite Radio Tuner with the HDRT, connect the PXAMGSR cable to the port

farthest from the dipswitches. Connect the gray end of this cable into the Satellite

Radio tuner.

7. Plug in the male connectors on the PGHFD1 harness into the 24-pin port and 16-

pin port on the back of the radio. Next, connect the factory 24-pin and 16-pin harness

(if present) into the female connectors on the PGHFD1 harness. Be sure to make a

ﬁrm connection but do not force it. If you are using the PGHFD1A harness, the 4 pin

plug on this harness will connect to the 4-Pin plug on the PGHFD1 harness. The

12 pin plug on this harness will replace the current 12-pin harness connected to the

LCD screen mounted above the radio. Disconnect the factory 12-Pin harness and

do not reconnect. Plug the 12-Pin connector of the PGHFD1A harness into the LCD

display. Again make a ﬁrm connection, but do not force. Plug the black micro-ﬁt 24-pin

connector on the PGHFD1 harness into the PXAMG Media Gateway box.

8. To complete the installation secure the Media Gateway (PXAMG) and HD Radio

tuner (HDRT) 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.

9. 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 HD Radio tuner before reinstalling the factory dash panels.

10. Note: The ﬁrst time you access the Gateway, your radio may display “DEV INIT”

while the device is initializing. After initially connecting the Gateway, please wait one

minute then cycle the ignition off and on. Then access SAT mode again to begin

normal gateway operation.
