  • the balance control is set to "right"
  • the volume of the right speakers higher than those of the left.
  • the optimal sound focus lies in the left half of the vehicle at a point where the same volume from both sides can be measured so that there an optimal stereo effect is achieved.
  • the fader When the fader is moved forward, it increases in the front Passenger compartment the volume. The sound focus with optimal volume is then back.
  • this known type of adjustment is very uncomfortable for the user.
  • the device for setting an audio device of a Vehicle on a display device for graphing the vehicle wherein in the graphical representation of the vehicle is a symbol representable and / or represented, which represents the location in the vehicle interior, where the setting of Volume distribution of the audio device vorappelbar and / or made, with the control device, the symbol in the graphic representation of the vehicle to a Position is movable, which represents a location in the vehicle interior, where the Volume distribution is set.
  • the vehicle graphically is shown, wherein represented in the graphical representation of the vehicle, a symbol is, which represents the location in the vehicle interior, where the setting of Volume distribution of the audio device is made, with the operating device the symbol in the graphical representation of the vehicle is moved to a position that represents a location in the vehicle interior where the volume distribution is to be set.
  • an embodiment of the invention provides that the display device is a graphic Representation regarding the volume distribution in the vehicle longitudinal axis and / or in the Has vehicle transverse axis and / or in the vehicle vertical axis.
  • the graphic representation is arranged parallel to the respective vehicle axle. Preferably, the intersection of the Straight lines through the respective point of the adjusted volume distribution in the respective Vehicle axle is placed, the place of adjustment of the volume distribution.
  • the display device has a graphical representation of the current Volume of at least two speakers.
  • the display device has a graphical representation of the vehicle, this may for example be a view from above (vehicle top view or top view).
  • the Graphic representation of the vehicle can be performed schematically or photographically be.
  • the representation of the vehicle top view is advantageous because the occupant, who the Setting the volume distribution makes good, can orientate at which position in the Vehicle he is currently making a setting.
  • the display device has a two and / or three-dimensional graphic representation.
  • An embodiment of the invention provides that the symbol representing the location in Vehicle interior represents where the adjustment of the volume distribution of the Audio device is vorappelbar and / or made, in the graphical representation of the vehicle with the operating device in vehicle longitudinal and / or iniserquerund / or is movable in the vehicle vertical axis. In doing so, the displaceability of the symbol stepless or in fixed steps.
  • the operating device is as Multifunction operating device running. Multifunction operating devices are For example, from the publications DE 102 05 641 A1, DE 198 07 410 A1 and DE 199 37 463 A1.
  • the operating device in the form of a multi-function operating device for Control the movement of the icon, in particular a joystick, a touchscreen, a Touchpad, a trackball, a rocker switch and / or a knob with enter function.
  • Such controls are from the documents DE 100 59 793 A1, EP 0 366 132 B1, EP 0 701 926 B2, DE 101 39 694 A1 and EP 0 893 750 B1.
  • the display device 1 with the graphical representation of the vehicle. 2 shown.
  • the graphical representation of the vehicle 2 can be schematic or photographic be educated.
  • the vehicle is preferably shown in plan view, that is to say in top view.
  • the graphical representation of the Display device 1 two and / or three-dimensional executed.
  • the speakers 3, 4, 5 and 6 are shown. These are reproduced according to their arrangement in the vehicle in the graph.
  • the speaker 3 is arranged in the front left of the vehicle.
  • Femer is in the graphical representation of the volume of each speaker 3, 4, 5 and 6 symbolically specified.
  • the speakers 3, 4, 5 and 6 have the same volume.
  • a symbol 7 is shown, which indicates the location represented in the vehicle interior, where the adjustment of the volume distribution of Audio device is made.
  • the symbol 7 is in Shape of a crosshair in the middle of the graphical representation of the vehicle 2. Accordingly, all speakers 3, 4, 5 and 6 give the same volume and the sound focus is exactly in the middle of the vehicle interior.
  • volume distribution of the audio device in the vehicle interior adjustable By means of the symbol 7 is emitted by the individual speakers 3, 4, 5 and 6 Volume or the volume distribution of the audio device in the vehicle interior adjustable, so that at different locations in the vehicle interior an optimal stereo effect can be achieved. In order to make the setting more comfortable for the vehicle occupants, the volume distribution of the audio device is graphically visualized.
  • the volume distribution of the audio device in Vehicle interior By shifting the symbol 7 with controls, not shown, not shown operating device, the volume distribution of the audio device in Vehicle interior to be adjusted.
  • the symbol 7 in the graphic Representation of the vehicle 2 either continuously or in fixed, discrete steps postponed.
  • the volume distribution of the audio device optimally for the Driver of the vehicle to be adjusted so the icon 7 on the position in the graphic representation of the vehicle 2 to be moved to the driver's seat (8) equivalent.
  • the symbol 7 is configured in the described embodiment as a crosshair. Conceivable are also formations of the symbol 7 as a dot, a pictogram or a picture or icon.
  • the operating device for moving the symbol 7 in the graphic Representation of the vehicle 2 is designed as a multi-function operating device.
  • one Operating element (not shown) used, which in two axes, in the Anlagenlticiansund Vehicle transverse axis, is controllable.
  • a control element (not shown) is preferably used, which in three axes, in the vehicle longitudinal and transverse axis and in the Vehicle vertical axis, is controllable. It is also conceivable the use of a control per Axis.
  • the operating device comprises as operating elements for the displacement of the symbol 7 especially a joystick, a touchscreen, a touchpad, a trackball, a Cross rocker and / or a rotary knob with enter function.
  • Fig. 2 is an embodiment of an optimized for the driver volume distribution of Audio device with the speakers 3, 4, 5 and 6 shown.
  • the symbol 7 is in shape a point on the driver's seat 8 has been moved.
  • An optimal for the driver Volume distribution with an optimal stereo effect is achieved by increasing the intensity or strength of a loudspeaker is greater, the farther away the speaker from the Position in the vehicle interior is where a setting should be made. In this case concerns this the driver's seat 8.
  • Fig. 2 are graphical representations for the Volume distribution in the vehicle longitudinal axis 9 and in the vehicle transverse axis 10 shown.
