blaupunkt koln din socket

graeme · Posted: Wed Apr 05, 2006 3:36 am Post subject: blaupunkt koln din socket

Hi, i have a blaupunkt koln radio, it has a 6 pin din to connect a tape player, i want to use this socket to connect an ipod.
Does anyone know how i can go from mini jack to 6 pin din?
Or does anyone know what pins are the signal input pins so i can make something up?
I have the circuit diagrams.
Thanx.

Its a mono radio, they help but im still confused.
I assume i can link the left and right outputs together as the radio is mono, so i need to connect one positive input and one negative input.
In radio mode pins 1 and 2 are bridged, do i need to keep them bridged when using the ipod?
I think you need to break the bridge to stop the radio working, so you just here the alternative input.

does that mean the speaker possitives are linked and go to both 1 and 2 pins
and the speaker earths are linked and go to number 5 pin?
Are they resistors on the speaker positives? 4.7 kohm?
I dont understand electronics.
If 1 and 2 are bridged, doesnt that mean the radio will also work?
The manual says the radio wont work unless they are bridged.
You remove that bridge when you connect a tape player.
Thanx for your help.

It doesnt seem to be a normal din socket.
I need to get a connector so i can modify it.
Thanx

Hi Graeme! For the electronic SOS, I can not help you, in this domain I'm a total Nono! Smile

My capacaties in this domain are worth than my english! Rolling Eyes

Sorryyyyyyyyy I know how to use a iron...engraving (well, almost) not more! Embarassed

Not sure about how you listen to the ipod withput hearingthe radio, but im sure ill work it out when its all installed.
=> For that, you have to found the frequency where the IPOD send the audio signal. In this case the IPOD (or the Mp3 Player works like a slave, like the old time whit a tape player). I do one some time ago for my Koln and it's woks grat whit my Denver Mp3 Player. The problem is more more whit the poor power of the amplicator
One last thing, whats is the din socket?
=> DIN: deutch industry norm
It doesnt seem to be a normal din socket
=> For the Old Europe it's a normal socket, and almost universal. In States? I dont know...sorry

The six pin "DIN" plug at the back of the radio is not really DIN, it's a "Blaupunkt special". You can get a complete cable + connector at :

http://www.koenigs-klassik.de/Zusatzgerate/zusatzgerate.html
You'll have to remove the plastic "Bridge" that is inserted at the "Din" plug, and your radio will stop to allow you to listen to your Ipod without the radio playing at the same time. You'll need as switch to be able to toggle between radio and Ipod : a kind of replacement for the original "bridge" . I think it is included in the set you can buy at Rainer Koenigs (link) shop.

thanx folks, im going to order the cable from wimkever's link.
Its easier and probably cheaper than making one.
The blaupunkt radios dont have a selector.
the switches behind the knobs are tone controll and radio reception sensitivity.
the lead im buying has a jack socket so you need a mini jack to mini jack.
If jack is plugged in the radio stops, unplug it and radio starts again.
I foung out there are different types of din, different degrees.
But ill just buy that cable, its easier.
Thanx again.

You're right. I have a lot of Blaupunkts (most Frankfurts) standing behind me this very moment. None of them have a switch behind the tuning knob.
succes
Wim

So, which pins do I use to activate an electric antenna from a Blaupunkt Frankfurt mono, vintage 1973, without an connection for an antenna? No. 2?

dont know about the frankfurt, but the koln has a seperate amp. Above the power input there is a little connector, that is the power ariel feed.

let me know how it works with that cable. I made my own (just a straight cable, no switch or anything) but while it was plugged in my radio did not work. I had to remove the cable from the radio to listen to it.

The cable they sell has a mini jack socket, so you need a minijack to mini jack lead.
Have the socket in the glove box.
Apparantly the radio cuts out when the mini jack is removed so no need to remove the cable from the radio.

Please help someone... I followed the diagram below for wiring lead for mono Emden radio to i pod etc...

But when I plugged it in it cut out the radio ( good ) but the ipod sound wont come out of the speakers and now the radio has no sound either.. !!

The illumination light still shows there's power to the unit but when you try and tune you get no sound / crackle or anything ... any ideas ..
