Electronic logbook
Electronic logbook.
The optional electronic logbook
enables automatic recording of
mileage, route distance, time and
date, starting point and destination
as part of every journey. Once you
have downloaded the logbooks
from the PCM via Bluetooth ®
or the optional USB interface,
you can evaluate the data on your
home PC using the software
supplied. The software complies
with all statutory requirements
for automatic logbooks as
specified by the German revenue
authorities.
TV tuner.
The TV tuner, available on request,
is capable of receiving analogue
and digital television broadcasts
(DVB-T) to provide entertainment
between journeys. For your safety,
the TV picture is switched off while
the car is in motion.
Voice control system.
Almost all of the functions of the
PCM can be controlled using
the latest optional voice control
system. The menu item is read
aloud exactly as it is displayed on
the screen and the voice control
system recognises commands or
sequences of numbers, whoever
the speaker. It then gives an
audible acknowledgement and
carries out the functions you
request. Without needing to ‘train’
the system, it is possible to
view phone book entries, tune
into radio stations and enter
navigation destinations directly
by speaking whole words, rather
than by dictating just one letter
at a time.
Telephone module.
Available as an option, the GSM
telephone module offers conven-
ience and excellent reception.
By inserting a SIM card directly
into the PCM’s integral SIM card
reader, calls can be made using
either the hands-free facility or
the optionally available cordless
handset. For even more conven-
ience, the Bluetooth ® capability
of a mobile phone can be used
to make calls through the SIM
Access Profile (SAP)*. Once

TV tuner
automatic pairing is complete, the
mobile phone’s aerial is switched
off to conserve battery charge
and the phone operates via the
car aerial. Depending on the
type of mobile phone, this gives
access not only to the numbers
on the SIM card, but also to the
phone’s internal memory. Also,
depending on the phone, it can
be controlled using the PCM, the
multifunction steering wheel or
the voice control system, without
it ever leaving your pocket.
Mobile phone preparation.
To enable Bluetooth ® connection
for those mobile phones that only
support the Handsfree Profile
(HFP),* an optional mobile phone
preparation (with and without
bracket) is available. With HFP,
the PCM acts merely as a
hands-free system. Here, too,
the mobile phone can remain
tucked away. The PCM can be
used to control only the basic
functions of the phone. The GSM
connection is established through
the aerial of the mobile phone.** */** For further information, see page 159.
Universal audio interface.
With this optional feature, the
storage compartment in the
centre console will contain three
connections: one for your iPod ® ,
one for a USB stick/MP3 player
and one as an AUX interface for
any compatible audio source of
your choice. The iPod ® or USB
stick can be controlled conveniently
and safely using the PCM, the
multifunction steering wheel or
the voice control system. Through
the USB socket, it is also pos-
sible to download data from the
Performance display of the Sport
Chrono Package Plus, as well as
data from the electronic logbook.
Sound Package Plus.
This high-quality sound system
is fitted as standard on all 911
models. A separate amplifier with
a total rated output of 235 watts
and nine loudspeakers create the
perfect interior sound experience.
