  1. Dear All,

     

    I have recently bought a car Mitsubishi RVR ROAR which has built-in Pioneer AVIC MRZ99 multimedia and navigation centre.

    Unfortunately, this model was made in Japan for Japanese cars only and doesn't have an option of language change.

    However, I believe that nothing is impossible as this device has Windows CE operating system loaded and similar models

    like AVIC Z110BT and AVIC Z120BT are being sold in America. Anyway, it is just a computer which can be programmed or

    re-programmed this or that way. I tried test mode which can easily be entered doing following: press and hold NAVI Button

    and at the same time arrows right --> left --> right --> left, then release the NAVI Button.

     

    I have uploaded to the File Dropper initial shots and the translated menu: http://www.filedropper.com/mrz99testmodemenujp,

    http://www.filedropper.com/mrz99testmodemenuen.

     

    Actually, you can do it yourself making simple steps: Take the pictures of the Test Mode menu by decent camera, enhance them

    in appropriate image editor, for example, I used PhotoFiltre (free Photoshop analogue), open them in Adobe Acrobat Pro,

    make OCR in Japanese at 600 DPI, and, eventually get plain text which can be loaded into Google Translation. Voila!

     

    In the meantime I am translationg Pioneer MRZ99 owners manual from Japanese to English and already 21 pages out of 70 are

    ready. Well, Google is far from to be an expert in translation, therefore, English manual looks a bit awkward, however, somehow

    understandable. I hope to finish the task in a couple of months, then I will upload owners manual PDF in English and hope that

    somebody will improve this translation and upload updated PDF.

     

    Best regards,

    Yury Semka
