If there is enough interest over there KPtechnologies will have to look in to sponsoring them, too.
OK, i'll do up a nice review thread over there soon.

I would appreciate it!

These should be here very, very soon. I've got my guy making a large batch of reverse mirror tilt modules right now, but as soon as these boards get here I'm going to put him on these.

One thing to note on the 08' G37 install I did. With cars that have the iPod adapter in it. When an iPod is connected it takes the interface a little more time to boot up the iPod interface and get to the "OK" screen. So I would recomend that if you use an iPod a lot in your car that you setup the dial on the module so that it is timed to send the "ok" signal with the iPod connected.

Kevin,

I ran into an issue yesterday and again today. Upon first starting the car in the morning, the ENTER (OK) button does not function for a handfull of minutes. I'll try to describe exactly what happened.

First turn the car on, the bypass does not function (does not press OK).

Pressing the ENTER button has no effect on the system. (as a side-effect, the BACK button does not function at this time either)

Pressing the SELECT button on the steering wheel works and allows use of the system.

During this time, the NAV bypass is IN EFFECT. Meaning, if i navigate my way through the menus with the SELECT button, I can issue a STREET ADDRESS input while moving.

Both yesterday and today I periodically pressed the ENTER (OK) button and after 10 minutes yesterday and 5 minutes today, the Relay clicked to the initial state and ENTER (OK) button functionality returned.

After this, the system behaves as one would typically expect.

I'm trying to wrap my head around what the possible problems could be. any suggestions?

When you get a chance try something out -

When everything is working "normally" hold down the "OK" button and then press the "BACK" button and see if the "BACK" button works.

It obviously sounds like the output is turning on and staying on at start up for some reason - possibly the module isn't initializing correctly.

holding OK, back does not work. in fact, no buttons work while holding OK, which i'd assume is normal operation?

I would assume that would be normal as well.

When the module locks up though all other buttons besides "back" still work?

Did it again this morning. I'll take it all apart and inspect the wiring just for good measure. Other than that, i'm not sure what else I can do.

If the adjusting the timing doesn't fix it, and the wiring looks good shoot me an Email and I can send you a replacement unit. I'm guessing there is something wrong with the module itself as you are the only one experiancing this problem, and the problem is inconsistent.

The production circuit boards shipped out today. I should have them early next week and at that time I will be setting up a release thread to offer these at a special introductory price (10% off).

Get ready!

The boards showed up today! I haven't had a chance to play with them yet, and probably won't with ZdayZ this weekend.

They look good, hopefully they work good too!

I would estimate it to be around 20 people or so.

For those 20 people, this module is NOW available through out website!

Under the products page click on the Navigation Interface and then select Navigation Interface.

The MSRP is $99.99 but we are offering a special introductory price of $89.99 for the next two weeks. After the two weeks are up the price will be $99.99.

If anyone has any questions please let me know!
