Overview
The SVS-6 is a truly unique and universal video input module that connects to ANY full color LCD screen equipped
with an RVC input (and wired reverse-camera trigger) for adding front, rear, blind spot cameras (turn signal cams)
as well as 2 additional video inputs (including one auto video-sensing input). All cameras are triggered from wired
inputs and this module is designed for use with OEM or aftermarket radio screens. Note: OEM radios require
additional parts.

SVS-6 Installation for OEM screens
Note: This section of the installation is intended for OEM screens, which would normally require a separate
reverse camera (RVC) interface with analog (wire) reverse trigger.
1. Remove the vehicle’s radio/screen. You must gain access to the required location when installing an
aftermarket rear camera. Refer to the installation manual of the RVC interface in use if necessary.
2. From the main SVS-6 harness, connect the black wire to ground (-) and the red wire to an ACC 12v (+)
source.
3. Connect the (male) ‘VIDEO OUT’ RCA from the provided CAM I/O Harness to the rear
camera input port of the RVC interface.
4. Connect the Reverse OUTPUT wire (pin 21, blue) to the RVC trigger wire on the interface
wire intended for RVC activation.
5. Mount and install all cameras (front, rear, trailer, aux video and blind-spot cameras) and run
video signal/power leads to the location where the SVS-6 will be mounted.
Camera Installation Notes:
a. Use a vehicle switched ACC 12v wire to power your cameras. Make sure the ACC source
you’re using has sufficient current to power all of your cameras. A thicker-gauge
wire (constant 12v) can be used for power supply to a relay, and trigger the relay
with an ACC source if you’re not sure.
b. Connect each camera signal to each yellow RCA input per their specific labels (rear,
front, right TSC, left TSC etc).
6. Connect the vehicle’s OEM reverse wire to input 6 (pin 9, white/black). Note: if this wire was already
connected to the existing interface’s RVC trigger, disconnect it and connect it here (pin 9) instead. The
interface’s RVC trigger must connect to the SVS-6 module at pin 21. See diagram, page 7.
7. Locate, test, splice and extend the left & right vehicle turn signal wires (wires will show 12v whenever
the bulb is illuminated) to the location where the SVS-6 will be mounted.
These wires can typically be found at the physical OEM turn signal lever harness beneath the
steering wheel shroud. In some vehicles, you may find them at the BCM. Note: These triggers must
be positive (+) polarity to the SVS-6. If the signals are negative, use relays for pole reversal.
8. Connect the vehicle’s left turn signal to input 5 (pin 10, purple). Connect the vehicle’s right turn signal
to input 4 (pin 11, pink).
9. If a front camera was installed, connect input 2 (pin 24, brown) to an accessory 12v (+) source through
a toggle or momentary button (not included) for activation. Note: if using a momentary button, DIP
Switch #4 must be in the UP position for 12 second Front-CAM time-out.
10. Optional: If adding an AUX video source to the AUX RCA input, connect input 3 (pin 23, gray/red) to an
accessory 12v (+) source through a toggle (not included) for activation or use a NAV-TV S2P.
11. Optional: If adding a Trailer Camera source to the Trailer CAM input, any time this input RCA sees a
video source, this video input will take priority over the regular RVC video input port. This is a great
option if the user often connects a trailer for automatically displaying the proper camera while in
reverse.
12. Connect the SVS-6 module to the 24-pin plug and proceed to ‘SVS-6 Operation’ (page 6).

SVS-6 Installation for aftermarket radio screens
Note: This section of the installation is intended for aftermarket screens, equipped with a composite reverse
camera (RVC) input & analog (wire) reverse trigger.
1. Remove the vehicle’s radio/screen. You must gain access to the required location when installing an
aftermarket rear camera. Refer to the installation manual of the head unit in use if necessary.
2. From the main SVS-6 harness, connect the black wire to ground (-) and the red wire to an ACC 12v (+)
source.
3. Connect the (male) ‘VIDEO OUT’ RCA from the provided CAM I/O Harness to the rear
camera input port of the head unit.
4. Connect the Reverse OUTPUT wire (pin 21, blue) to the RVC trigger wire on the head unit
(typically purple or purple/white).
5. Mount and install all cameras (front, rear, trailer, aux video and blind-spot cameras) and run
video signal/power leads to the location where the SVS-6 will be mounted.
Camera Installation Notes:
a. Use a vehicle switched ACC 12v wire to power your cameras. Make sure the ACC source

SVS-6 Operation
Reverse Camera (Video 6): Placing the vehicle in reverse will display the connected reverse camera as usual,
unless a Trailer camera is present, connected and powered on. In this case, the Trailer Cam RCA signal will
have priority over the typical RVC RCA.
AUX Video (Video 5): Whenever input 3 receives 12v (+), the connected AUX video image will display on
screen with lowest priority (see chart below).
Left & Right Turn Signal Cameras (Video 4 & 3): When connected properly, normal usage of the OEM turn
signal stalk will display either left or right turn signal image, respectively.
If the user desires the display screen to return to factory in 12 seconds, dip switch #2 must remain UP.
If the user desires the Turn Signal Cameras to display (priority) over the RVC image, dip switch #3 must
remain UP.
Front Camera (Video 2): Whenever input 2 receives 12v (+), the connected front camera image will display on
screen with second-to-last priority (see chart below).
If the user desires the Front Camera to display for 12 seconds only, use a momentary button instead of
a toggle switch. For this function, dip switch #4 must remain UP.
If the user is expecting to be able to automatically switch between reverse and front cam (when in and
out of reverse gear), the front camera activation must be on a toggle switch, not a momentary button
(using built-in SVS-6 timer).
Trailer Camera (Video 1): This is a video-sensing input. If you have a video signal (such as a trailer or 5th-wheel
camera) connected to this RCA input and the camera is powered, then this video signal will automatically take
priority over the usual RVC input RCA signal. This condition will remain until the signal or power is disconnected
from this video source.
Below is a chart for Video Input priority order. Installation requirements will vary, adjust the DIP Switches
to suit your needs. See page 3 for Dip Switch options.

SVS-6 FAQs
Q1. I have the front camera connected to a toggle switch. Whenever I turn it off, the camera says on for a
period of time afterwards.
A1. Check dipswitch 4 is in the UP position. In the DOWN position, the front camera will stay on as long as the
input has 12v, but the timer doesn’t start until 12v is removed.
Q2. Can I change the priority of the video inputs, or which one will display over the other?
A2. No, the video input priority cannot be reconfigured.
Q3. When I connect my camera signals, the image will turn on and off with the blinkers.
A3. Verify you’re using the Turn Signal camera inputs.
Q4. When I put my vehicle into reverse, the backup image will display but none of the other images will
show. The radio will not transition and only shows the radio screen.
A4. The reverse wire that would normally connect to the radio has to be removed and connected to RVC
INPUT of the SVS-6. REV_OUT (pin 21) from the SVS-6 is then connected to the reverse wire of the radio. You
cannot connect both the vehicles reverse wire and SVS-6 OUTPUT wire together at the radio. By doing so, it
may power the reverse bulbs any time the cameras are requested & can potentially damage both the SVS-6
and/or the vehicle’s BCM.
