What functionality will I lose if I still choose this set up?? I want the display as I want a motorized display for my CDX_C90 (xt-40v). I want to add a camera and a laptop for gps and dvd playback. is this going to be possible or should I look for another option?? --------------------------------- ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 03:49:55 PM PST US From: "Roland M" Subject: RE: XDP4000X-List: CDX-C90 and the XAV-7W --> XDP4000X-List message posted by: "Roland M" >--> XDP4000X-List message posted by: Scott Thibault > > >Here is my question: > >I was told that the XAV-7w would not work with the CDX-c90. do to the >unilink protocols being diffrent.

The XAV-7W is a HU on its own. It is screen driven with a remote and has UniLink changer control. I'm pretty sure it can't be controlled on its own. That would be like trying to connect two HUs together I think (unless the XAV-7W has an external pre-amp box???). However you could use the C90/XT-40V combo with the 7W as a video input source, but there wouldn't be any cross-control functionality. The C90 would not be able control the 7W and the reverse wouldn't work either I don't think. Since you'd likely not use all the functionality of the XAV-7W (like the changer control, volume control, etc.) then you might be better off buying a screen from another manufacturer that is just a motorised screen and nothing else...

That doesn't sound too hard. Can NA (non-RDS) units be modified for RDS support just as easily?
