1.4.1.

 

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

1.4.2.

 

Rear-view camera setting (dip 5) 

 

If set to OFF, the interface switches to factory picture while the reverse gear is engaged to 
display factory rear-view camera. 
If set to ON, the interface switches to its rear-view camera input 

„Camera

-

IN“ 

while the 

reverse gear is engaged. 

 
1.4.3.

 

Monitor selection (dips 6-8) 

 

Dips 6-8 are for monitor-specific video settings which cannot be predicted as even within the 
same head-unit version, the monitor specifications may vary. It is necessary to try all 
possible combinations - while a working video source is connected to the chosen input of the 
interface - to see which combination gives the best picture quality and size (some may give 
no picture). It is possible to first hot plug through the dip combinations, but if you do not 
experience any change of picture after trying all options, retry and disconnected the 6pin 
power plug of the video-box between every change of the dip setting. 

 
Note:

 Dip 1 und 4 are out of function and have to be set to 

OFF

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. 
 
As with any installation of retrofit equipment, a stand-by test is neccessary after the 
installation of the video interface, to ensure that the unit also switches off after reaching 
the vehicle

‘s

 sleep mode. 

 
Before the final installation, we recommend a test-run of the interface. Due to changes in 

the production of the vehicle manufacturer, there’s always the possibility of 

incompatibility. 

 

Note: Before a final installation, we recommend a test-run to ensure the compatibility of the 
vehicle and the interface. Due to changes in the production of the vehicle manufacturer 

there’s always a 

possibility of incompatibility. 

 
 

2.1.

 

Place of installation 

 

The interface is installed on the backside of the factory monitor.
