1. Warnings
1.1 General
Mobileye 8 Connect is Mobileye’s new driver assistance system, containing the latest
iteration in Mobileye’s state-of-the-art machine vision software – the EyeQ®4 system-
on-chip.
Mobileye 8 Connect alerts the driver, aurally and visually, to certain potentially
dangerous situations on the road; the greater the danger, the more ‘urgent’ the
warning.
Mobileye 8 Connect is not an automated driving system. It does not replace the driver
nor allow the driver to be any less vigilant or alert to the road than he/she would
otherwise be. It does not reduce the driver’s responsibility for driving properly, nor
his/her liability for driving improperly or unlawfully. In particular, the driver should
ensure not to be distracted from the road by the Mobileye 8 Connect display unit.
Mobileye 8 Connect works best on paved roads with clear lane markings. Even then,
Mobileye cannot guarantee 100% accuracy nor the absence of false positives
(‘seeing’ something that’s not there) or false negatives (failing to ‘see’ something that
is there), especially in adverse road or weather conditions.
Mobileye 8 Connect is designed to detect only fully visible vehicles and fully visible
pedestrians and bicycles (both in daylight and at night). It is not designed to detect
crossing, oncoming, or passing vehicles.
 Do not connect any system component when vehicle power is On.
 All system components must be connected before turning the system power On.
 Before making the power connections, extract the Fuse from the Fuse holder and add it
back only after all system components and cables are connected and before turning the
vehicle power On.
 DO NOT open the SIM card lid while system is On. Replacing the SIM card is prohibited

5 Mobileye 8 Connect
1.2 Installation & Safety Instructions
 Mobileye 8 Connect installation must be carried out by an authorized Mobileye 8
Connect dealer or Installer.
 Do not transfer Mobileye 8 Connect to another vehicle after installation.
 The Mobileye 8 Connect GSM Nano SIM card will work only with the Mobileye 8
Connect unit with which it is supplied; do not use the SIM for other purposes or with
other Mobileye 8 Connect units.
 Operate Mobileye 8 Connect only with 12VDC~24VDC power.
 Do not cover or obstruct the Camera Unit or Display and Control Unit.
 Use proper tools.
 Use only an LED voltage tester or digital multi meter. Do not use a light bulb voltage
tester.
 Pay attention to unusual color cables, for example: yellow cables belong to air bags;
two twisted wires usually belong to different (digital) sensors.
 Before disconnecting the battery or radio connectors make sure to have the radio
code in hand.
 Do not disconnect any plug or connector in the vehicle while the car’s ignition switch
is on.
 Before making the power connections, extract the Fuse from the Fuse holder and add
it back only after all system components and cables are connected and before turning
the vehicle power On.
 Use protective gloves when handling the camera unit to protect against heat burns.

6. Connection Description
6.1 Site preparation
 Make sure the vehicle is parked on a flat surface (no slope).
 Check vehicle speed signal availability (either by CAN-bus or by Analog) to
determine which type of installation will be for the Master camera (CAN,
Analog, Mix).
6.2 Vehicle signals connections
Please ensure to identify the Mobileye 8 Connect cables according to table below.
Identified vehicle’s signals Wires label Wires color
Vehicle battery (Constant 12V~24V) via 2A fuse BAT+ Red
Ignition (12V~24V) via 2A fuse Ignition Blue
Vehicle GND GND Black
CAN B High CAN Reader White
CAN B Low CAN Reader Yellow
Identifying the vehicle’s electrical signals requires having the keys in the ignition in the ACC
(Accessory) position or ignition ON. Make sure the car headlights and/or any other power
consuming devices/applications, e.g. air conditioning, are turned off during Mobileye 8 Connect
installation to prevent battery drainage.

Technical Installation Guide (4G) v1.9 www.mobileye.com
18 Mobileye 8 Connect
6.3 EyeWatch Installation
Select the optimal location for the EyeWatch attachment:
1. The EyeWatch should be placed on the dashboard or windshield at a location
within the driver’s field of view, conveniently visible while driving, and allowing
access to its controls while sitting comfortably in the driver’s seat (the EyeWatch
mounting angle is adjustable by the installer — a Philips's screwdriver is required)
2. Clean the selected location with the provided 3M VHB Surface cleaner
3. Attach the EyeWatch at the selected place (after removing the protective cover
from the adhesive tape)
4. Remove the transparent protecting covering from the display surface
5. Insert the EyeWatch cable (CAB000087/CAB000401) behind the vehicle
trimmings so that it reaches the EyeWatch connector of the Mobileye 8 Connect
cable (CAB000400)
 The EyeWatch unit should be placed in a location that does not obstruct the driver’s field
of vision
 The EyeWatch should not be placed in front of the air-bags operational space as it may
otherwise prevent the airbag from fully opening or cause injury during air-bag activation

6.4 Mobileye 8 Connect main unit (camera) installation
 Minimum height for camera location is 1.2 meters (3.9 feet).
Maximum height for camera location is 1.8 meter (5.9 feet).
 The unit must be in an area of the windshield which the windshield wipers reach.
 The unit should preferably be located at the center of the windshield.
Installing the unit off-center in a convex windshield will result an improper field of
view, which will affect system performance. The camera’s lens should always
face straight ahead.
 Off-center installation is allowed up to 8%
EXAMPLE: if the vehicle width is 200cm (2M), camera can be attached up to 16
cm from the windshield center (200*0.08=16). Vehicle width in cm X 0.08 = MAX
OFFSET
 Camera roll-up is allowed up to 2°; if the camera roll is higher than 2°, the
calibration will fail.
 There should be no obstruction, such as stickers or darkened windshield areas,
in front of the main unit.
 In tall commercial vehicles that do not have an engine hood blocking the
camera’s field of view, the main unit can be placed on the lower part of the
windshield; however, all the above-mentioned requirements must nonetheless
be considered. In this case, you can modify the main unit cable to the "DOWN"
position. “DOWN” means that after the main unit installation, the main cable exits
from downwards instead of upwards (by default the cable exits upward from the
“UP” position).
Selecting the optimal location for the main unit is critical and can affect system performance.
Please ensure to comply with the following guidelines.
In extreme cases and upon approval of Mobileye support team, it is possible to install the
camera above 1.8 meters BUT this will void any REM data which can affect the project
target.
