funny you mention that i ordered this unit




pc richardson sells it for half price

 

As i can see Viper cannot remotely start, only with their remote control, from one mile. I want to start from my phone, and also, start climate control too, not only engine.

 

So how did you do the firmware update?

 

im still testing it out ,im almost giving it a 2 thumbs up ,no issues so far,it is so much more of an improvement ,tons more options,
yesterday, i finished wiring the oem camera to the screen and tossed the aftermarket camera,
once i check that everthing is good ill post video with links ,i will also install remote starter from viper ,ive done a ton of these for friends ,now its time for my car to get one
The remote starter dont control climate , as you turn your car off you have to leave the fan at the desired speed and heat ,and when you hit the button from your house it will warm it up,
it would be nice to controll it from your phone ,,im sure some has done it

 

You need to add a modem, in order to access climate or start engine. Once you have internet connection, you can use team viewer or another app.

 

Did you have to splice the wires (as per that other thread) or does the update allow the OEM camera to work as as it did with the OEM unit?

 

Is it worth paying extra for the px6 vs the slower processors?

 

Always choose newest platform. Old one is good with 90%+ discount.

 

i have all 3 the px6 is the best period ,for me it works flawlessness, my first unit was $1000 dont ask me why i paid that i just did. My second the px3 ,i paid $500 , and my last was $600, .My first unit with the **** came with a bluetooth DSP amp , witch it self is worth 500 bucks ....but in the end the px6 wins for performance.
I had to T wire the oem camera in ,fairly easy job ,i bought a 12v-6v converter, $6







if you have a 2010-2011 its way easy ,you tie into 2 plugs behind the headunit
once i finish this video ill do a picture write up ,and put it in post 2 , with all my write ups

 

Hey, how did you get that GS on the bottom with the A/C controls? Mine just shows a dumb PT cruiser. Also, do you mind taking a picture of your MCUversion? Wonder what's the latest version. Thanks.

 

So can you just buy a unit fully updated? Or you have to manually update it after?

 

you may be able to get a unit updated ,but i have not found a any suppliers who have,.theirs a process you go through to get it like mine .. Its pretty straight forward ,
once i get the wife to hold the camera for me ill leave all info there,ive set up steering wheel so i hit a button and the front camera comes up ,and ac and heating conrol on the steering wheel

 

What unit would you recommend buying from and what seller sells it?

 

What year car and options do you have
