Safety Vision SV-CLCD70BA
Color TFT LCD Collision Avoidance System
Quick Installation Guide
Overview
The Safety Vision SV-CLCD56BA and SV-CLCD70BA
Color TFT LCD Collision Avoidance Systems are
designed for rugged, mobile environments and turn on
automatically when the vehicle transmission is in reverse
gear. Each system includes a monitor and camera (The
SV-CLCD56BA system includes a 5.6-inch monitor, and
the SV-CLCD70BA system includes a 7.0-inch monitor.)
The system monitor has an integrated speaker, and the
system camera has an integrated microphone, permitting
the driver to both see and hear activity within the
camera’s range. Although two cameras can be connected
to the SV-CLCD56BA/70BA system, only one camera is
provided with the system.
Components of the SV-CLCD56BA/70BA system include:
Safety Vision SV-LCD56BA or SV-LCD70BA Monitor,
which features:
yEither a 5.6-inch or 7-0-inch TFT LCD screen
yWide field of view
yIntegrated speaker
Safety Vision SV-625B-KIT, which includes the
camera (Part Number SV-625B) and a 65-foot
extension cable (Part Number SV-523B) and has the
following features:
yRugged, water-resistant housing
yCCD image sensor for improved image quality
yWide field of view
yLEDs that generate infrared light for improved
image quality in low-light situations
yIntegrated microphone
Important Safety Precautions
Install and operate the SV-CLCD56BA/70BA system with
the following safety precautions in mind:
The ground (black) wire of the control box system
power cable must be connected directly to the vehicle
chassis.
Use only the correct voltage (12 to 24 VDC).
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect the
battery from the electrical system of the vehicle before
starting the installation.
Do not expose the monitor or control box to water or
other liquids.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble
the system components, and keep cables away from
sharp objects.
Do not block the ventilation holes in the monitor
housing.
This system is designed to assist the vehicle driver
with rear vision only. Do not attempt to view the
monitor while driving forward.
Select inconspicuous cable routes that do not interfere
with normal driver or passenger mobility.

Typical Installation
SV-LCD56BA/70BA Monitor
1. Select a mounting surface for the monitor, which can
be mounted overhead or elsewhere in the vehicle
cabin (including on the floor or console).
The mounting surface should:
yBe level, waterproof, ventilated adequately, and
capable of supporting the weight of the monitor and
mounting bracket
yNot be close to a vehicle speaker (to prevent
interference from the speaker’s magnetic field)
yNot be extremely hot or humid
2. Affix the monitor bracket to the mounting surface with
the supplied screws, the pre-applied high-bond
adhesive, or both.
ÏInstalling the Monitor Bracket
3. Position the monitor in the monitor mounting bracket,
adjust the angle as necessary, and tighten the handle
screw.
ÏInstalling the Monitor in the Bracket
SV-625B Camera
1. Select an appropriate mounting location for the
camera, which should be mounted on a solid, flat
surface at the highest possible point on the vehicle.
2. With the provided hardware, affix the camera
mounting bracket to the mounting surface, and secure
the camera and sun visor in the bracket.
ÏInstalling the Camera
3. Connect the provided 65-foot extension cable. Align
the arrows on both cable connectors, and then tighten
securely. This connection must be made tightly to
ensure water resistance.
ÏConnecting the Camera Pigtail to the Extension Cable

SV-CLCD56BA_70BA QIG Ver.1.1d.doc 4
Connections
1. Connect the 13-pin DIN connector on the wiring
harness to the 13-pin DIN connector on the
monitor cable.
2. Connect the camera extension cable to the
connector labeled as “Camera 1” on the wiring
harness.
3. Connect the individual wires on the wiring
harness as follows:
Wire Color Vehicle Location
Red Vehicle wire that has 12 VDC when
the vehicle ignition is on
Black
(Ground) Vehicle chassis
Green
(Trigger 1) Vehicle wire that has 12 VDC when the vehicle transmission is in reverse
gear (typically the wire for the backup
lights). (When this wire has 12 VDC,
the monitor receives input from
Camera 1.)
White
(Trigger 2)
(Optional)
Vehicle wire that has 12 VDC when a
separate event (such as activating a
turn signal) occurs. (When this wire
has 12 VDC, the monitor receives
input from an optional Camera 2.
Camera 1 input takes priority over
Camera 2 input.)
Yellow
(Audio) When this wire has 12 VDC, the monitor receives audio input from
Camera 1
System Operation
Initial Setup
To initiate display of the main menu, press the MENU
button on the front panel of the monitor. Use the UP and
DOWN buttons to increase and decrease values for
menu items.
N
OTE: After several seconds of inactivity, the menu is no
longer displayed, and the MENU button must be
pressed again to initiate display of the main menu
again.
Menu items can be changed as follows:
Menu Item Function
CONTRAST Adjusts the contrast level between dark
and light images
BRIGHT Adjusts the brightness intensity level
VOLUME Adjusts the volume of the integrated
speaker
Camera 2 Input
By default the SV-CLCD56BA/70BA monitors are set to
receive one camera (Camera 1) input only.
To configure the monitor to receive two inputs, ensure a
second camera (Camera 2) is connected, and use the
following procedure:
1. Press the “-“ (Down) button, then the “+” (Up) button.
2. Repeat step 1 five times (ten total button presses).
3. Press the Menu button.
4. When “TO B2 RESET” appears on the screen, press the
Power button.
The monitor is sensitive to the timing that the “-“ and “+”
buttons are pressed. If at first “TO B2 RESET” does not
appear on the screen, try again, pressing the buttons
more slowly (or more quickly) and consistently.
When the monitor is powered up again, press the Power
button to switch between Camera 1 and Camera 2.
System Power
In typical installations, the system is placed into Standby
mode automatically when the sensor wire for the vehicle
ignition is activated, and the monitor automatically
displays camera input when the sensor wire for the
vehicle backup lights is activated. The system can also
be powered ON and OFF manually with the POWER
button on the front panel of the monitor.
