PAC RP4-FD11 Installation Parts Manual

Introduction & Features
The RP4-FD11 interface allows the replacement of a factory radio in select Ford/Lincoln/Mercury vehicles with MSCAN
databus radios. Using this interface will retain factory features such as steering wheel controls (SWC), rear seat
entertainment (RSE), rear seat controls (RSC) and the THX or Sony amplifier when the original radio is removed. Use of
this interface also allows you to program two radio functions to each SWC button by using short press long press dual
command functionality. The RP4-FD11 also provides data bus driven outputs such as retained accessory power (RAP),
vehicle speed sensor (VSS), illumination, reverse trigger and parking brake.

Important Notes

1. The radio select rotary switch on the side of the interface must be adjusted to the proper radio setting
before plugging the interface into the vehicle (see next page for setting chart).
2. The interface comes pre-programmed for all of the vehicles factory SWC functions and does not require programming unless
you wish to re-assign the SWC functions or utilize short press long press dual command functionality. The SWC can always
be restored to default settings by pressing and releasing the program button on the side of the interface once and waiting 7
seconds for the LED to flash 4 times.
3. 2005-07 Ford Freestyle, Mercury Montego and Ford Five Hundred - In order for SWC to function in these vehicles you must
re-calibrate the SWC using the procedure outlined on page 4.
4. RSC buttons that are identical to the SWC will mimic the SWC one for one. All other buttons cannot be programmed.
5. The LED will flash whenever a SWC button is pressed.
6. When used in a vehicle equipped with an LCD screen, the screen will display the SWC functions as they are pressed on
the steering wheel. It will also display "Programming Mode" whenever the programming button on the side of the interface is
pressed.
7. The RSC must be in AM mode for track +/- to function. RSC must be set to AUX mode to pass audio to aftermarket radio.
8. Vehicles equipped with a factory amplified system must disconnect SYNC if they wish to use the voice button. Not disconnecting
SYNC will result in the rear speakers muting every time the voice button is pressed.
9. Feeding too strong of an audio signal into the headrest monitors will cause the audio output to shut down. If this happens you
must turn the tv off and on and lower the audio signal.
