The NP509 in conjuction with a SA509 (Stand
Alone Navigation Adaptation Kit) can be inter-
faced with the VX409, VZ409, or any monitor
with a composite RCA video input. This provides
a unique opportunity for RV and bus operators to
view the navigation images on a larger screen. .
2-Zone Entertainment
Clarion offers four source units that offer 2-Zone
Entertainment (NX509, VX709, VX709 and VZ509).
This function allows front seat passengers to lis-
ten to one audio source while rear seat passen-
gers can enjoy another through and overhead or
headrest monitor with headphones.
The rear seat passengers can enjoy a DVD movie
with the front seat passengers can listen to the
Radio Tuner, iPod or Visual Input. Volume control
over the 2-Zone output is performed by the head-
phones as the 2-Zone output is line-level.
Please review your source unit owner's manual
for limitations pertaining to 2-Zone functionality
with respect to specific accessories.
CCD Camera Input
The Clarion NX509, NX409, NZ409, VX709,
VZ709, and VZ509 feature a dedicated CCD
camera input jack on the rear of the source unit.
When connected to the CK625E camera kit, the
camera input will be triggered automatically when
the vehicle is put in reverse. This makes backing
up safe and secure.
A/V Inputs
This additional A/V input allows you to connect
and external A/V source such as a video game
system or camcorder to your multimedia source
unit.

A/V Outputs
This allows you to connect the output of the
internal DVD player, or Visual input to an exter-
nal monitor. The A/V output features a line-level
audio signal. The connected device must have its
own volume control. Compatible devices include
overhead or headrest monitors with wireless
headphones.
Video Distribution
Any time a video signal is to be split and connect-
ed to multiple vide sources, the use of a proper
electronic video distribution amplifier is required.
The Clarion VA700 provides seven buffered video
outputs from a single composite video input con-
nection.
Using the VA700 will ensure that picture qual-
ity remains clear and sharp and the brightness
and contrast levels are not altered. The use of
Y-cables is not an option for splitting a composite
video signal as the signal voltage determines the
black level of the image, and will be altered when
split.
