Introduction
Rosco’s Safe-T-Scope 360™provides drivers with 360° aerial visibility to cover blind zones around
the vehicle. The system combines views from four cameras placed at the front, rear, and sides of
the vehicle to give an aerial view of the vehicle and all immediate surroundings. The system can
combine this 360° aerial view with direct views from individual cameras based on operating
conditions. The system supports nine different camera display configurations. These views can be
automatically triggered by a variety of inputs from the vehicle. For example, when the vehicle is in
reverse gear, the overhead 360° view can be combined with the direct view from the rear camera,
giving the driver unparalleled vision where they need it most. In addition to displaying this video to
the driver, the system can be set to output video directly to a video recorder, such as the Rosco
Dual-Vision®XC4 DV440.

Hardware
Cameras (STSC360)
•Never tamper with camera housings. Camera housings are sealed to prevent moisture and dust intrusion.
•All four included cameras are identical and can serve as front, rear, or side cameras.
ECU (STSK360ECU)
•NEVER adjust DIP switches labeled “SW” on rear of ECU.
•ECU is EMI shielded –DO NOT tamper with housing.
•3.5 mm IR Port is NOT USED.
•DO NOT remove rubber gasket from Calibration port unless performing calibration ( See page 12)
Cable Harnesses (STSK360PHAR/VHAR)
•Minimum bend radius for all cables is two inches (2”).
•Loom all extension harnesses, especially those for the front camera.
•For detailed information on Power Harness (STSK360PHAR) see “Power Harness Detail” section, Page 11.
•For detailed information on Video Harness (STSK360VHAR) see “Video Harness Detail” section, Page 9.

Installation
General Guidelines
•Please read the entirety of this manual before beginning installation.
•Double-check all measurements before drilling any holes or making any other vehicle modifications.
•Each vehicle has its own system and features. Please refer to your vehicle’s manual for details.
•Turn the ignition key off while installing the cables and device.
•Make sure to connect Ground wire first!
•Select a secure, protected location for the ECU module.
•Remove fuse from fuse holder during installation. Replacing fuse should be the last step.
•Keep protective films in place during installation to prevent scratches, especially on monitor.
•Use caution when removing and replacing vehicle interior panels.
•Read wiring diagrams carefully before connecting wires.
•Gather and prepare all tools prior to installation.
•Minimum cable bend radius is two inches (2”).
•For ease of installation and repair, it is recommended to use a fused power terminal block.
•DO NOT attempt to clean ECU with any liquids
•DO NOT attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify the products.
•DO NOT adjust DIP switches on ECU labeled “SW.”
•Mount ECU in a location that is not exposed under normal use conditions. Inside the driver’s switch panel is
an acceptable location.
•DO NOT attempt to remove or modify ECU housing. ECU housing is coated to block EMF, any tampering
could compromise performance.
•Make sure to mount ECU in such a way that calibration port is accessible.
•Make sure ECU has ample clearance on all sides (except bottom) to allow proper airflow for cooling. Bottom
of ECU can be mounted flush to a surface.
MONITOR NOT INCLUDED

7
Camera Installation
•DO NOT attempt to disassemble camera housings. They are sealed to limit water and dust intrusion.
Warranty & IP69k Rating become void if camera is opened.
•PRIOR to placing the cameras on the vehicle, the calibration mats should be placed at the front and rear
bumpers of the vehicle. Each camera should be mounted in the highest practical location possible on each of
the 4 sides of the vehicle.
•Front and rear cameras should be placed as close to center line of vehicle as possible. An offset of up to 6” is
acceptable, but not recommended.
•All cameras must be angled so that the vehicle is barely visible. If there is too much of the vehicle body in
image, the system cannot be calibrated.
•Side cameras should be mounted as close to the horizontal center of vehicle as possible, & MUST be
mounted symmetrically to one another. Side cameras should be placed as high as possible.
•If the cameras must be moved off-center due to an obstruction, an offset of up to 10% of the vehicle’s
overall length is acceptable; & it is preferred to move the cameras toward the FRONT of the vehicle.
•After installation and wiring, use the provided button harness (STSH360) to check the images from the SIDE
cameras. The image should cover at least 3 feet beyond front and rear bumper.
•When viewing images from cameras, the bottom of the image should contain approximately 10% of the
vehicle body and/or bumper.
Make sure that the white background of
the pattern is visible between vehicle body
and the closest edge of the triangles.

•For front camera placement, if engine bay extends from front of vehicle, then ideal camera placement is on
the hood or grill. Mounting at the roofline will create a “blind spot” directly in front of the vehicle. See below
image for illustration.
RECOMMENDED:
NOT RECOMMENDED:

General Wiring Guidelines
•Make sure red wire from STSH360PHAR is secured to the vehicle fuse block at a terminal which will be at
zero-voltage state when the vehicle ignition key is OFF. A typical location on a fuse block would be the ACC
port for cigarette-lighter power. Zero-voltage state should be verified using a voltmeter prior to installation.
•Please refer to vehicle manual and fuse block diagram to identify best location for power, ignition, and
ground wire connection points.
•DO NOT insert a fuse into Battery or Ignition fuse holders until system is fully installed.
•It is essential that appropriate external 3-Amp fuses be used for Battery and Ignition wires on STSH360PHAR.
•If passing front camera cable through the fire wall, be sure to seal any holes in fire wall.
•Use caution when working around vehicle engine. Be aware of hot components. Take care to properly shield
all cables from any hot components.
•DO NOT install front camera harness near rotating components.
•Always make sure vehicle engine is OFF when installing front camera.
•Tape/cap any unused wires.

Video Harness Detail (STSK360VHAR)
•Names from this diagram are printed on the side of corresponding cables in STSK360VHAR.
•CVBS is triggered video output. This output is ONLY active if the system has been triggered.
•CVBS is a triggered output intended for connection to a monitor. For a list of compatible Rosco monitors, see
Page 27.
•CVBS-RV can be used for video recording. Rosco DV440 or any other compatible video recorder can be
connected to this output for video recording. This output is not triggered-it is always active.
•CVBS and CVBS-RV outputs can be connected to either 4-PIN video out (STSH357) OR RCA out (STSH358).
•“NAVI UART,” “CVBS-BB,” and “SPEAKER” outputs are NOT USED.
