Camera Mounting
General
Unless the up fit has been designed with a feature to mount the camera, a bracket or a mounting feature on the up fit
will need to be developed. If practical, it is desirable to mount the camera in a location where the connector on the
rear of the camera can be inside the up fit and shielded from the outside environment. If fabricating a bracket, it should
be designed to offer as much protection to the camera and connector as possible. A mechanical layout of the camera
is in
Appendix A
.
Placement
ATTENTION:
The camera placement zone shown below is intended to assist the
upfitter in meeting the requirements of FMVSS111. Compliance to
FMVSS111 will be the responsibility of the final stage manufacturer
who certifies the vehicle.
NOTE:
This information is provided for directional purposes only, based on
testing performed by FCA US LLC.
The recommended camera placement zones are defined in Figures 1 and 2. The diamond in the center of the green
zone is the optimum placement location. Lateral dimensions are from the centerline of the vehicle and vertical
dimensions are from the ground plain.
Figure 1
is the recommended camera mounting location for the rear view mirror
display and
Figure 2
is the recommended camera mounting location for the 5, 8.4 and 12 inch screens.
If the camera is mounted somewhere within the specified zone, the system is capable of meeting FMVSS111.
Depending upon the up fit, it may be possible to meet FMVSS111 with the camera mounted in areas outside of the
recommended zone. However gaining compliance may be difficult and may require more development work.
