Camera mounting
Rear view camera: The rear view camera is to be mounted at least
40 cm above the ground. Depending on the model of the system,
camera can be mounted: in a standard location (for Gazer CKR4400-
ххх and Gazer CKR4413-xxx models) instead of the license plate
light housing (with the light function preserved) or instead of the
trunk handle (with the button function preserved); using a universal
“butterfly” mount (for Gazer CKR4400 model).
Front view camera: The front view camera is to be mounted
at least 40 cm above the ground. Depending on the model of the
system, the camera can be mounted: in a standard location (for Gazer
CKR4400-ххх and Gazer CKR4413-xxx models) instead of the front
car emblem or in a stock mounting seat; using a universal “butterfly”
mount (for Gazer CKR4400 model).
Side view cameras: Side view cameras are to be mounted at least
40 cm above the ground. Depending on the model of the system,
cameras can be mounted: in a standard location (for Gazer CKR4400-
ххх and Gazer CKR4413-xxx models) instead of the lower parts of
wing mirrors; inside wing mirrors (for Gazer CKR4400 model).
To mount universal side view cameras, one needs to make 2 symmetrical holes in the left and right wing mirrors. Once the cameras are
mounted, adjust the viewing angle as shown in the diagram below:

Central control unit mounting
Once the cameras are mounted, connect them to the central control unit observing the color of connection wires (Fig. 3).
Mount the central control unit in the front of the vehicle (under the steering column or under the driver’s seat). For correct operation of the
G-sensor function, fix the central control unit tightly on the car body or any other stationary part of the car interior. Make sure you put the
USB cable in an easy-to-reach place. This way you will not have any trouble connecting a USB drive and copying video files.

Note: To activate the CCTV parking mode, set switches No. 1 and No. 2 in “Down” position.
Attention! When installing switches No. 1 and No. 2 to the “Down” position and switches No. 3 and No. 4 to the “Up” position, a built-
in G-censor will be not active.
Setting up CCTV parking mode
Gazer surround view system supports CCTV function in a parked car. When this function is activated, the system stops operating after ACC
signal is off and plays back a 120 second video recording only if the shock sensor (G-sensor) is tripped. Car battery discharge control function
will prevent the car battery from a critical discharge: the system will shut down completely at 11.7 V until ACC signal is on again.
Use the switches on the device control unit to adjust the system further.
Switch No. 1 (“Up” position): force system shutdown after ACC signal is off.
Switch No. 2 (“Up” position): disable car power system voltage control (set at 11.7 V).
Switches No. 3 and No. 4: shock sensor (G-sensor) sensitivity adjustment. To adjust the shock sensor (G-sensor) sensitivity, set the
switches as shown in the diagram below:

Caution! The distance from the front sheet to side sheets (P1, P2) as well as distances S1 and S2, O1, and O2 must be the same
(P1=P2; S1=S2; O1=O2).
System calibration
To ensure that information from each camera is displayed correctly and the feed from all cameras is merged into a single “plan view”, one
needs to calibrate the device before use. This requires: tape measure - 5 m (2 pcs) and 7.5 m (2 pcs); 1.6 m x 1.2 m calibration sheet (4 pcs).
To calibrate the system, follow the steps below:
1. Place calibration sheets in front of each camera as shown in the diagram below (Fig. 4). Red marks on the front and rear calibration
sheets must be aligned with the car’s central axis. Red marks on side calibration sheets must be aligned with the car’s wing mirrors
(mounting seats inside the mirrors).
2. Measure distances L, W, P1,and P2 (Fig. 4)

5. After adjusting the camera view, go back to the previous menu using the “Back” button on the remote control. Enter L (Length), W
(Width), P (Pan) values in the corresponding fields in accordance with your data and then select “Аuto” (Fig. 9) in the menu. In case
calibration was successful, you will see a panoramic “plan” view of your car without any blind spots (Fig. 9).
Fig. 9
Note: In case of incorrect calibration, repeat the procedure.
Recommendation: Cameras must be mounted at least 40 cm above the ground. Follow this recommendation at all times to avoid
system malfunction.
