Installation Instructions
Your Car Vision® System should be installed so the
ignition switch or power switch that controls your
vehicle’s power also provides power to the Car
Vision® System. To be in a constant ready state, the
Car Vision® System consumes a small amount of
power even when it is in Standby mode. Therefore,
connecting the system to a pre-ignition constant
power source or directly to the battery can drain your
vehicle battery.
The Car Vision® System is designed so that the rear
mounted Car Vision® camera can have priority over
any other camera or data input into the display
provided the blue reverse gear power source lead is
properly connected and the rear camera is
connected to the Camera 1 position. (Please see the
Wiring Diagram provided with your controller).
When the vehicle is placed in reverse, the rear
mounted camera will be activated and the picture it
provides will be shown on the display screen.
Always confirm proper operation before travel. In
multiple camera systems, other camera views can
also be triggered automatically within a priority
scheme. If you have any questions regarding the
proper installation or operation of your Car Vision®
System please call INTEC @ 800-468-3254 (west)
or 800-522-5989 (east)

(Refer to the Wiring Diagram provided with your controller or see
the Wiring Diagram in your monitors operation guide).
Camera Installation
For optimum field of view, mount the rear camera
approximately 10 feet up on the vehicle from ground
level so that the rear-most part of the vehicle is
visible at the bottom of the display screen. If this is
not possible, mount the camera in a fashion that will
give the driver the best possible view of the area
behind the vehicle while still aligning the rear-most
part of the vehicle with the bottom of the display
screen as a reference.
1. Establish a solid mounting location in the center of
the vehicle using the guidelines above. Make sure
that no part of the installation obstructs any lights or
any part of the driver's view.
2. Position the camera(s) with the mounting bracket
attached in the location where it will be mounted and
turn on the system to check the field of view (you
may have to reverse the camera’s mounting bracket
to obtain the proper angle). Be certain the field of
view of all installed cameras provides adequate and
appropriate coverage for your application.
3. Once the location and angle have been
determined, use the camera bracket or bracket
extension as a template to mark the position where
the holes will be drilled and drill the holes. Make
sure the area being drilled into is clear of all wires
and other items before you begin drilling.

4. Once the holes are drilled, install the camera
mounting bracket and extension, if required, with the
mounting bolts provided. You may need to purchase
additional hardware if the hardware provided does
not work in your application.
5. Mount the camera in the bracket with the
hardware provided and align it so that the rear-most
part of the vehicle is in line and viewable at the
bottom of the display screen.
6. It is recommended that you apply an anti-galvanic
compound to the camera mounting bolts before
installation.
7. The XL connector is a twist to lock type. Simply
align the keys on the cable connector with the ones
on the camera connector and push in and twist until
firmly seated.
