DISCLAIMER
THIS IS A DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY AND DAMAGE RESPONSIBILITY AS REGARDS TO
LECTRONIX, INC. RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE LECTRONIX VIS SYSTEM. READ IT
CAREFULLY. YOU ASSUME TOTAL RESPONSIBILITY AND RISK FOR USING THIS
SYSTEM.
Failure to properly focus on the operation of your motor vehicle can result in death,
serious injury and property damage. The T8500 product family should never be used at a
time or in a manner that distracts you from focusing on the operation of the motor vehicle
in which it is installed. Our concern is for your safety. We ask that you fully cooperate
with and share that concern.
Always operate the vehicle in a safe manner and in full compliance with speed limits, road
safety signs and all other laws and devices that regulate operation of a motor vehicle. Be
aware of driving conditions at all times when using this system while operating a motor
vehicle.
Operation of this unit, including its camera, navigation, audio and other features can be
distracting to your operation of the motor vehicle. While the system is intended to provide
both entertainment and vehicle and navigation information, it is not intended to, nor
should you allow it to distract you from properly focusing on operating the motor vehicle
in which it is installed. It is up to you to minimize or prevent such distraction.
Learn how to use this system before placing the vehicle in operation. Minimize the
amount of time spent viewing the screen of the unit while driving. Do not attempt to adjust
settings of the system or resolve any malfunction while driving. Instead, pull off the road
in a safe and legal manner and then adjust its settings or deal with any malfunction. In the
event of malfunction, disable the unit (turn power off or remove power from the system).
In addition to its multiple other functions, your VIS (Vehicle Infotainment System) is
equipped with a navigation function. When navigating, carefully compare information
displayed on the unit to all available navigation sources, including information from street
signs, visual sightings, and maps. Do not enter destinations, change settings or access
any functions requiring prolonged use of the controls of the unit while operating your
motor vehicle. For safety, pull off the road before making any adjustments to the system
or resolving any navigation discrepancies or questions.

Cautions
Notes on Use: Liquid Crystal Display Panel and Touch Screen
The VIS display is a Liquid Crystal Display Panel, commonly known as an LCD. Over the surface
of the LCD is a touch screen to allow the user to touch the screen and activate buttons and other
controls. There are a number of considerations to keep in mind with any system using an LCD
panel. The touch screen is subject to damage if it is not properly used. While both elements can
take substantial use, they need to be treated with care. The following guidelines should be
followed when using your unit. Refer to the Maintenance section of this manual for cleaning
instructions.
Do not cause impact to the liquid crystal panel/touch screen.
Do not use a mechanical pointer to touch the screen, as it will damage the touch screen.
Always use your finger so you can feel how much pressure is being applied to the
screen.
When the temperature is very cold or very hot, the image may appear unclear or may
move slowly.

Getting Started
Understanding your Vehicle Infotainment System (VIS)
The VIS is designed to be installed in a double DIN mounting hole of the instrument panel (IP) of
International and Caterpillar Trucks. The VIS Base unit (T8510) offers a comprehensive
information processing and display navigation system for your Internationaland Caterpillar
Trucks. It features a 6.5” color display and resistive touch screen for easy operation. It has the
ability to connect to the vehicle’s J1939 bus which provides the driver with engine and truck data
as well as operating environment. The VIS Premium (T8520) system is similar to the base unit,
but adds Wi-Fi connectivity.
Options include camera support for one camera and SmartWaveTire Pressure Sensing System
for tractor tires.
The VIS works in conjunction with the Delphi DEA350 & 355 Radio series to produce audio.
Reference the Audio section of this manual for details on selecting audio sources from the VIS.

Turning the VIS On and Off
The VIS has been installed at the factory or at your International or CAT Dealership. The VIS will
automatically turn on when the ignition of the vehicle is turned on. If the vehicle ignition has been off for
more than two hours, the VIS will need approximately one minute to start up. A logo screen, then an
advisory screen will be displayed during this start up time.
Touch the Continue button to proceed to the Home Screen.
If desired, the VIS may be turned off at any time while the vehicle ignition is on. While the system will
appear off, it will actually be in a Standby low power state and can be immediately turned back on. To
turn the system off, push and hold the Power On/Off button for approximately five seconds. The screen
will go black and all functions will stop. Release the Power On/Off button.
To turn the system back on, push and release the Power On/Off button.
Standby Operation
When the vehicle ignition is turned off, the VIS will enter a low power Standby state. The system will
remain in Standby state for approximately two hours. At two hours the system will save all user settings
and power off.
If the vehicle ignition is turned on before the two hour time limit, the system is immediately restored to the
most recent function and display.
If the vehicle ignition is turned after two hours, the system will go through a full power up sequence as
described above.
