Legal Information
By law, watching moving pictures while driving is prohibited, the driver must not be
distracted. We do not accept any liability for material damage or personal injury resulting,
directly or indirectly, from installation or operation of this product. Apart from using this
product in an unmoved vehicle, it should only be used to display fixed menus or rear-view-
camera video when the vehicle is moving (for example the MP3 menu for DVD upgrades).
Changes/updates of the vehicle’s software can cause malfunctions of the interface. Up to
one year after purchase we offer free software-updates for our interfaces. To receive a free
update, the interface has to be sent in at own cost. Wages for de-and reinstallation and
other expenditures involved with the software-updates will not be refunded.
1. Prior to installation
Read the manual prior to installation. Technical knowledge is necessary for installation. The
video interface’s place of installation must be free of moisture and away from heat sources.
Before the final installation in the vehicle of the video sources, we recommend a test-run
to ensure the compatibility of vehicle and interface. Due to changes in the production of
the vehicle manufacturer there’s always a possibility of incompatibility.
1.1. Delivery contents
Take down the serial number of the interface and store this manual for support
purposes: ____________________

Limitations:
Video only The interface inserts ONLY video signals into the infotainment.
For inserting Audio signals either the possibly existing factory
audio-AUX-input or a FM-modulator can be used. If 2 audio
sources shall be connected to the infotainment, an additional
electronic is necessary to switch them.
Factory rear-view camera Automatically switching-back from inserted video to factory
rear-view camera is only possible while the reverse gear is
engaged. To delay the switch-back an additional electronic part
is required.
After market front camera The front camera will automatically be switched for 10 seconds
after disengaging the reverse gear. A manually front camera
switching is possible by external keypad.
Guidelines and PDC Displayed guidelines and optical PDC are not available in all
vehicles.
Video input signal Only NTSC video sources compatible

1.3. Boxes and connectors –video interface
The video-interface converts the video signals of connected after-market sources in a factory
monitor compatible picture signal which is inserted in the factory monitor, by using separate
trigger options. Further it reads the vehicle’s digital signals out of the vehicle’s CAN-bus and
converts them for the video interface.

1.4. Settings - 8 Dip switches (black)
Some settings have to be selected by the dip-switches on the
video interface. Dip position down is ON and position up is OFF.
In case of a non-optimal displayed picture with the mentioned dip settings of dip 7, we
recommend to try the other dip switch setting.
After each Dip-switch-change a power-reset of the Video interface has to be performed!
*The front camera will automatically be switched for 10 seconds after disengaging the
reverse gear.
** A correct display of the PDC is only possible if it is by factory displayed on the RIGHT
side of the monitor.
See the following chapters for detailed information.

1.4.1. Activating the front camera (dip 1)
If set to ON, the interface switches for 10 seconds from the rear-view camera to the front
camera input after having disengaged the reverse gear, depending on the menu
adjustments. In addition, a manual switch-over to the front camera input is possible via
keypad (short press) from any image mode.
Note: Description of the power supply output: see chapter “Power supply output for front cam”.
1.4.2. Enabling the interface’s video inputs (dip 2-3)
Only the enabled video inputs can be accessed by switching through the interface’s video
sources. It is recommended to enable only the required inputs. So the disabled inputs will be
skipped while switching through the video interfaces inputs.
1.4.3. Rear-view camera setting (dip 5)
If set to OFF, the interface switches to factory picture while the reverse gear is engaged to
display factory rear-view camera or factory optical park system picture.
If set to ON, the interface switches to its rear-view camera input while the reverse gear is
engaged.
1.4.4. Activating the guide lines (dip6)
If set to ON, the guide-lines will be shown on the display.
If set to OFF, the guide lines won’t be visible on the display.
1.4.5. Monitor selection (Dip 7)
Dip 7 customizes the monitor-specific video settings which sometimes even vary within head
units of the same version, caused by different monitor specifications. If one dip position
doesn’t give a satisfying picture, try the other setting while a working video source is
connected to the chosen input of the interface. If there is no change of picture visible after
having changed the setting, retry and disconnect the 6pin plug at the interface box between
every change of the dip setting.

1.4.6. Activation of the factory PDC display (Dip 8)
Dip 8 is used to switch between image formats of front and rear camera and to display the
factory PDC (if available) as „picture in picture“ in combination with the camera image.
Note: A correct display of the PDC is only possible if the PDC is by factory displayed on the
right side of the monitor.
Note: If there is no communication between interface and the vehicle`s CAN-bus (several
vehicles aren’t compatible), the optical PDC and the reverse gear guide-lines can`t be shown
during the vehicle’s operation, even if they once appear after having switched the system to
powerless!
Dip switch 4 is out of function and has to be set to OFF.

2. Installation
To install the interface, first switch off the ignition and disconnect the vehicle’s battery.
Please read the owner`s manual of the car, regarding the battery`s disconnection! If
required, enable the car`s Sleep-mode (hibernation mode)
In case the sleep-mode does not succeed, the disconnection of the battery can be done
with a resistor lead.
As with any installation of retrofit equipment, a stand-by test is neccessary after the
installation of the video interface, to ensure that the unit also switches off after reaching
the vehicle‘s sleep mode.
Before the final installation, we recommend a test-run of the interface. Due to changes in
the production of the vehicle manufacturer, there’s always the possibility of
incompatibility.
2.1. Place of connection
The interface is supposed to be installed at a suitable location behind the vehicle`s head-
unit.
