Rear seat entertainment is here to help. Thanks to its

wide range of entertainment possibilities, it makes
journeys more pleasant and entertaining for
passengers.
People want mobility and independence and so they

are spending an increasing amount of time in their
cars. Long journeys, in particular, can become tedious
for passengers in the back seats, however.
This self-study programme describes the functions of

all rear seat entertainment systems used in
Volkswagen Group vehicles.

The history of the car radio
The desire for enjoyment is as old as humankind itself. Earlier forms of entertainment were music, dance and
theatre. Centuries later, the first modern entertainment media arrived in our living rooms with the radio,
gramophone and television. At the time of their launch, they revolutionised the entertainment industry.

These units were still based completely or partly on

valve technology, had a volume of around 10 litres
and cost almost half the price of a small car at the
time. It was not until the fifties that the units became so
compact that it was possible to integrate them into the
dashboard.

The first mono radio came on the market in 1924.

Three years later Chevrolet became the first
automobile manufacturer to offer a car radio for its
vehicles. Due to the size of the radio receiver, a large
unit had to be accomodated in the boot. A switch was
mounted on the steering column to control it.
S408_050
The first car radios were very similar to their
stationary counterparts.
In the sixties, valve technology was replaced by

transistors. This new space-saving technology opened
many possibilities. The evolution of the car radio
accelerated.
At the end of the same decade, the audio cassette and
stereo sound celebrated their addition to car radios.
The CD followed in the mid eighties. The first traffic
news was broadcast in the early seventies.
S408_080
The audio cassette allowed most car drivers
to take their favourite music with them in
their car, for the first time.

Parallel to the car radios, the devices with screens

were developed further. While the large units with
cathode ray tubes were still completely unsuitable for
use in cars, this changed with the arrival of LCD
technology.
agen

Vo
by
AG.
The screens grew in size allowing more and

more information to be displayed.
The first simple LCD screens were used in vehicles as

early as the eighties. At the end of the decade, the
first active matrix screen (AMLCD) was launched and
adapted for use in vehicles over the next years.

Due to their compact design, TFT/LCD screens have a

multitude of applications. The new technology has
made it possible, for example, to integrate navigation
systems in car radios. The first navigation system
integrated in this way appeared in 1997.
S408_074
Full-sized LCD screens are now no longer a
rarity in cars either.
S408_075
From 2001, the built-in LCD screens were large

enough to watch films on properly. They were either
built directly into the car radio, separately in the
headliner or in the head restraints for rear seat
entertainment. VHS players were used to play the
films at first.
DVD players/changers are mainly used today.
External devices, for example, games consoles, are
being used more and more and the arrival of DVB-T
television has now also made good television
reception possible in vehicles.
DVD players have long since outstripped VHS

players.
Basics
TFT/LCD screen
Modern flat screens are often called LCD screens or
TFT monitors. Both expressions describe the same
technology. This is why the term TFT/LCD screen is
often used. LCD refers to the use of liquid crystals in
the individual pixels of the screen and TFT to minute
transistor elements that control the orientation of the

Development
One of the latest TFT/LCD screens as used

for rear seat entertainment.
Otto Lehmann published his principle work Liquid Crystals back in 1904. In 1911, Charles Mauguin described the
structure and the properties of liquid crystals.
In 1936, the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company patented the first practical application for the new technology the liquid crystal light valve. The first functioning LCD was developed in the USA in 1968 under the guidance of
George H. Heilmeier. The first active-matrix screen (AMLCD), a 3'' TFT/LCD display, followed in 1987.

The whole colour spectrum can be depicted by mixing

these three primary colours. The transistors are either
triangular (delta configuration) or arranged exactly in
columns and lines (vertical stripe configuration).
The larger the screen with the same number of pixels,
the more likely you will see a zig-zag pattern in the
delta configuration. For this reason, the vertical stripe
configuration is used for this kind of screen.

Each pixel of a TFT/LCD screen is made up of three

transistors with the colour filter elements red, green
and blue (RGB).

TFT element
When a certain voltage is applied, the liquid crystals

are oriented parallel to the electrical field. This
changes their emission angle so that the light is no
longer turned - it can no longer pass the second
polarisation filter. A reduced voltage level also allows
a smaller amount of light to pass through the second
polarisation filter.
By varying the voltage, the brightness of the LCD cell
can be regulated steplessly. The voltage is generated
on a film with transistors, which is part of each LCD
cell - the TFT element.

In-between them is a layer of liquid crystals that are

oriented so that they turn light beams exactly 90
when not powered. The rotated light beams can pass
through the second polarisation filter. The screen then
becomes light in the area of this LCD cell.

TFT transistor
The TFT elements do not only regulate the overall

brightness, but also the colour reproduction of the
picture, at the same time. The light for each pixel
passes through a colour filter that consists of three
colour filter elements (red, green, blue). All colours
displayed by an LCD monitor are created by mixing
the three primary colours red, green and blue in the
colour filters.
Colour filter
Each colour filter element has a separately controlled

transistor. A TFT with 1024 x 768 pixels therefore has
exactly 3 x 1024 x 768 transistors that regulate the
light transmission of each colour component.

Depending on the vehicle model, two different

systems are used. There are coupled and decoupled
RSE systems. Coupled systems are connected to the
control unit with display for radio and navigation
J503 or to the radio (R). Decoupled systems are
connected to the battery monitor control unit J367
(voltage monitor). Audio can be played back via the
vehicle loudspeakers only with a coupled RSE system.

There is no diagnosis option for the RSE system using the VAS tester.

Remote control
The infrared remote control allows you to operate all
main functions of the DVD player. Its range is up to
five metres. Infrared remote controls do not
necessarily require direct visual contact with the unit
they control since the infrared signals can be reflected
from many surfaces.
Remote control of RSE
S408_004
Function
The infrared remote control transmits a light signal at
a frequency around 40kHz. Information is sent to the
receiver by blanking the transmission signal. Like
Morse code, the signals and the intervals between
two signals form the code for the information that is to
be transmitted to the receiver.

Depending on the coding method, a signal packet is

made up of 7 to 14 bits. With a signal packet of 7 bits,
the command volume + would be as follows, for
example: 1100010. The first one, i.e. the first bit,
always stands for the so-called start bit that precedes
each infrared command. It always has the value 1.
