Connecting peripheral devices
It is possible to connect one after-market rear-view camera, one after-market Front camera
and one after-market Video source to the video-interface.
Before final installation of the peripheral devices, we recommend a test-run to detect a
incompatibility of vehicle and interface. Due to changes in the production of the vehicle
manufacturer there’s always a possibility of incompatibility.
2.5.1 After-market rear-view camera
Some vehicles have a different reverse gear code on the CAN-bus which the included CAN-
box is not compatible with. In this case there are two different ways of installation. If the
CAN-box is able to detect an enabled vehicle’s reverse gear, the green wire of the 6pin to
12pin cable should carry +12V while the reverse gear is engaged.
Note:
Do not forget to set dip5 of video-interface to ON before testing.
2.5.1.1.
Case 1: CAN-box receives the reverse gear signal
If the CAN-bus box de12V on the green wire of the 6pin to 12pin cable while reverse
gear is engaged, the video interface will automatically switch to the rear-view camera input
CAM while the reverse gear is engaged.
Additionally, the +12V (max. 500mA) power supply for the rear-view camera can be
taken from the green wire of the 6pin to 12pin cable.
