Changes/updates of the vehicle’s software can cause malfunctions of the interface. Up to
one year after purchase we offer free software-updates for our interfaces. To receive a free
update, the interface has to be sent in at own cost. Wages for de-and reinstallation and
other expenditures involved with the software-updates will not be refunded.
No liability for vehicle wire colours and pin definition!
Changes by the vehicle manufacturer are possible. The given information has to be verified
by the installer.
1. Prior to installation
Read the manual prior to installation. Technical knowledge is necessary for installation. The
place of installation must be free of moisture and away from heat sources.
1.1. Delivery contents

Limitations
Video only The interface inserts ONLY video signals into the infotainment. For inserting
Audio signals either the possibly existing factory audio-AUX-input or a FM-
modulator can be used. If 2 audio sources shall be connected to the
infotainment, an additional electronic is necessary to switch them.
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.
Video input signal Only NTSC compatible.
1.2. Checking the compatibility of vehicle and accessories
Version 10.09.2019 HW: 25(V31) CI-RL2-MIB2-E

1.3. Boxes and connectors
1.3.1. Video Interface
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. Further it reads the vehicle’s digital signals out of the vehicle’s CAN-bus and
converts them for the video interface.
1.3.2. CAN-bus box
The CAN box reads the vehicle’s digital signals out of the vehicle’s CAN-bus and converts
them for the video interface.
Version 10.09.2019 HW: 25(V31) CI-RL2-MIB2-E

1.3.3. Dip-switch settings
Some settings have to be selected by the dip-switches on the
video interface. Dip position down is ON and position up is OFF.
After each Dip-switch-change a power-reset of the Can-box has to be performed!
See the following chapters for detailed information.
1.3.3.1. Enabling the interface’s video inputs (dip 2-3)
Only the enabled video inputs can be accessed by switching through the interface’s video
sources. It is recommended to enable only the required inputs, because the disabled inputs
will be skipped while switching through the video interfaces inputs.
1.3.3.2. Rear-view camera setting (dip 5)
If set to OFF, the interface switches to factory LVDS picture while the reverse gear is engaged
to display factory rear-view camera or factory optical park system picture.
If set to ON, the interface switches to its rear-view camera input while the reverse gear is
engaged.
Note: Dips 1, 4, 6, 7 and 8 are out of function and have to be set to OFF.

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
2.1.1. Place of installation - interface-box
The interface is prepared to be connected behind the vehicle`s monitor and head-unit.
2.1.2. Place of installation - daughter PCB
The interface’s daughter PCB is prepared to be installed inside or outside the monitor
housing depending on the head unit.

2.3. Connecting video-interface –Power / CAN
Connect the white female 6pin connector of the 6pin to 8pin cable to the male 6pin
connector of the video interface.
1) Connect the red coloured wire of the 4pin Power / CAN cable to +12V ACC.
2) Connect the brown coloured wire of the 4pin Power /CAN cable to vehicle’s
ground.
3) Connect the blue coloured wire of the 4pin Power / CAN
cable to terminal 6 CAN HIGH of the female 36pin connector
(see pin diagram beside).
3) Connect the grey coloured wire of the 4pin Power CAN cable
to terminal 12 CAN LOW of the female 36pin connector
(see pin diagram beside).

2.4. Connecting video-interface –analogue
If the communication between the CAN box and the vehicle’s CAN bus does not succeed (not
all vehicles are compatible), an analogue connection is required by using the 6pin to 8pin
cable with cut wire ends.
Connect the female 6pin connector of the 6pin cable to the 6pin connector of the
video interface.
Connect the yellow, the red and the black wire of the 6pin cable to the vehicle’s
power and ground.
Note: The connection of the green wire (Reverse signal) will be described in chapter “After-
market rear-view camera”. The white wire will be used to switch the enabled video sources
(see chapter “video interface – operation”). The grey wire stays unconnected.
