2 Safety and installation instructions
Please observe the prescribed safety instructions and stipulations from the
vehicle manufacturer and service workshops.
The manufacturer will not be held liable for claims for damage resulting from the
following:
zFaulty assembly or connection
zDamage to the appliance resulting from mechanical influences and excess
voltage
zAlterations to the device without express permission from the manufacturer
zUse for purposes other than those described in the operating manual
ANOTICE! Risk of damage!
zTo prevent short circuits, always disconnect the negative terminal of the
electrical system before working on the vehicle.
If the vehicle has an additional battery, its negative terminal should also
be disconnected.
zInadequate supply cable connections could result in short circuits which:
– Cause cable fires
– Trigger the airbag
– Damage electronic control devices
– Cause electric functions to fail (indicators, brake light, horn,
ignition, lights)
Please observe the following instructions:
zWhen working on the following cables, only use insulated cable lugs, plugs and
tab sleeves:
– 30 (direct supply from positive battery terminal)
– 15 (connected positive terminal, behind the battery)
– 31 (return cable from the battery, earth)
– 58 (reversing light)
Do not use plastic terminal strips.
zUse a crimping tool (fig. 111, page 2) to connect the cables.
zWhen connecting to supply cable 31 (earth), screw the cable
– To the vehicle’s earth bolt with a cable lug and a gear disc or
– To the sheet metal body work with a cable lug and a self-tapping screw
Ensure that there is a good earth connection.

When the negative terminal of the battery is disconnected, all data stored in the
volatile memories will be lost.
zThe following data must be set again, depending on the vehicle equipment
options:
– Radio code
– Vehicle clock
–Timer
– On-board computer
– Seat position
You can find instructions for making these settings in the appropriate operating
instructions.
Observe the following installation instructions:
zSecure the monitor in such a way that it cannot become loose under any
circumstances (sudden braking, accidents) and cause injuries to the
occupants of the vehicle.
zDo not attach the monitor in the area that may be used by an airbag, as this
could cause injury if the airbags are triggered.
Observe the following instructions when working with electrical parts:
zWhen testing the voltage in electrical cables, only use a diode test lamp
(fig. 11, page 2) or a voltmeter (fig. 12, page 2).
Test lamps with an illuminant (fig. 13, page 2) take up voltages which are too
high and which can damage the vehicle’s electronic system.
zWhen making electrical connections, ensure that
– They are not kinked or twisted
– They do not rub on edges
– They are not laid in sharp edged ducts without protection (fig. 3, page 3).
zInsulate all connections.
zSecure the cables against mechanical wear with cable binders or insulating
tape, for example to existing cables.
Observe the following instructions when handling the LCD monitor:
zDo not open the monitor (fig. 4, page 3).
zDo not submerge the monitor in water (fig. 5, page 3); the monitor is not
waterproof.
zThe monitor may not impair your vision when driving (fig. 8, page 4).
zDo not operate the monitor with wet hands.
zDo not operate the monitor if the housing has been damaged.
zConnect it to the correct voltage.

5 Intended use
The LCD monitors PerfectView M5L, M7L and M7LX are monitors which are primarily
intended for use in vehicles. They can be used together with cameras
(e.g. a reversing video system) or other video sources.
The LCD monitors are designed for use in all vehicles.
6 Technical description
6.1 Function description
The LCD monitor is a monitor for the connection of cameras (e. g. reversing video
systems) or other video sources (e. g. TV set). It is possible to switch back and forth
between video sources.
The monitor features control cables which allow the cameras to be activated
automatically.
To secure it and connect the power, slide it onto the monitor bracket. The Easylink
system allows the monitor to be easily removed from the monitor bracket. It can
therefore be removed to protect it from theft, or for use in several trucks in a fleet
(fleet solution).
The monitors M5L and M7L can operate up to two cameras.
The monitor M7LX can operate up to three cameras. Alongside the usual controls,
the three cameras can be switched consecutively in automatic mode. This monitor
also features a distance indicator in the display which is activated automatically when
the reverse gear is engaged.
A further video source can also be connected to the monitors, e.g. a reversing cam-
era on the trailer (trailer operation). This additional video input has signal detection:
when a video source is connected to this video input, video input C1 is automatically
deactivated (e.g. the reversing camera on the tractor) and the image from the addi-
tional video input is displayed instead.
The brightness of the monitor adapts automatically to the ambient light.

Observe the following instructions when laying the connection cable:
zFeed the connection cable through existing ducts or other openings where
possible, e. g. ventilation grilles. If no suitable ducts or openings are available
you will need to drill a hole of ∅20 mm. Check beforehand that there is sufficient
space on the other side for the drill head to emerge (fig. 2, page 3).
zTo prevent damage to the cables, when laying them ensure that there is always
a sufficient interval to vehicle components which can become hot (lights,
heaters, ventilators etc.).
zWrap insulating tape around every connection on the cable (even inside the
vehicle).
zWhen laying the cables, make sure:
– they are not kinked or twisted
– they do not rub on edges
– they are not laid in sharp-edged ducts without protection (fig. 3, page 3).
Connecting the monitor as a reversing video system (fig. d, page 7)
➤Lay the connection cable for the monitor bracket on the dashboard.
➤Insert the plug of the monitor cable (2) into the socket (4) of the connection
cable (3).
ANOTICE! Risk of damage
Make sure the polarity is correct when connecting to a voltage source.
➤Connect the red and black cables of the connection cable to a suitable voltage
supply:
– Connect the red cable (5) to terminal 15 (ignition).
– Connect the black cable (6) to terminal 31 (earth).
➤If the monitor is to be activated when reverse gear is selected, connect the green
cable (8) to the positive cable of the reversing light.
INOTE
If voltage is present in the green cable (8), the reversing camera will be
activated automatically. The reversing camera has priority.
➤If the monitor is to be activated e. g. when the indicator is flashing, connect the
following control cable to a positive cable of the indicator:
–M5L, M7L: white cable (8)
–M7LX: white cable (8), blue cable (13)
INOTE
If voltage is present in this control cable, the following video input will be
activated:

This control cable is used as a signal cable for the activation e. g. of a side camera
when an indicator is flashing.
➤If necessary, connect the socket C1 (9) of the connection cable to the plug of the
video source 1 (e. g. camera).
➤If necessary, connect the socket C2 (10) of the connection cable to the plug of
the video source 2 (e. g. side camera).
➤M7LX only: If necessary, connect the socket C3 (11) of the connection cable to
the plug of the video source 3 (e. g. reversing camera).
INOTE
Observe the power consumption of the video system. The cameras are
equipped with heaters. A maximum current of 1.5 A can flow (three
cameras in heating mode). Use a disconnector switch for direct connection
to the battery. This allows you to disconnect the video system from the
battery easily if you are no longer using the vehicle.
Connecting an additional reversing camera (trailer operation)
➤M5L, M7L: If necessary, connect socket C3 (11) of the connection cable to the
plug of the additional reversing camera.
