or a FM-modulator can be used.

In case that 2 AV sources shall be connected, a desired audio switching will

require additional electronic.

Factory rear-view camera Automatically switching-back from inserted video to factory rear-view camera

is only possible while the reverse gear is engaged. To delay the switch-back an

additional electronic part is required.

The video-interface converts the video signals of connected after-market sources in a factory

monitor compatible picture signal which is inserted in the factory monitor, by using separate

trigger options.

camera input after having disengaged the reverse gear. In addition, a manual switch-over to

the front camera input is possible via keypad (short press) from any image mode.

Description of the power supply output: see chapter “Power supply output”.

1.4.1.2. Enabling the interface’s video inputs (dip 2-3)

Only the enabled video inputs can be accessed when switching through the interface’s video

sources. It is recommended to enable only the required inputs, disabled inputs

will be skipped when switching through the video-interfaces inputs.

1.4.1.4. Guide lines (Dip 6)

If set to ON, the interface is activated to show the guide lines for the rear-view camera while

the vehicle is in reverse mode (not available for all vehicles).

Note: Some vehicles have a different code on the CAN-bus which the video-interface is not

compatible with. If the interface does not completely communicate with the vehicle CAN

bus, the reverse gear guide-lines can`t be shown during the vehicle’s operation, even if they

in some vehicles once appear after having switched the system to powerless!

1.4.1.5. Vertical picture mirroring (dip7)

Dip 7 adjusts a vertical mirroring of the inserted videos on the monitor. If the monitor

representation of inserted videos should be shown 180° twisted, the setting for dip7 has to

be ON.

2. Installation

To install the interface, first switch off the ignition and disconnect the vehicle’s battery.

Please read the owner`s manual of the car, regarding the battery`s disconnection! If

required, enable the car`s Sleep-mode (hibernation mode)

In case the sleep-mode does not succeed, the disconnection of the battery can be done

with a resistor lead.

If the necessary stabilized power supply for the interface is not taken directly from the

battery, the chosen connection has to be checked for being constantly stabile.

The interface needs a permanent 12V source!

2.1. Place of installation

The video interface is designated to be connected behind the vehicle`s head unit.
