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.

No liability for vehicle wire colours and pin definition!

Changes by the vehicle manufacturer are possible. The given information has to be verified

by the installer.

1. Prior to installation

Read the manual prior to installation. Technical knowledge is necessary for installation. The

place of installation must be free of moisture and away from heat sources.

1.1. Delivery contents

Take down the serial number of the interface and store this manual for support

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.

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.

1.2. Checking the compatibility of vehicle and accessories

Version 24.09.2020 HW: CAM(V31)/(V22) CI-RL2-MTC

Page5

1.3. Boxes and connectors

1.3.1. 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.

1.3.2. CAN-bus box

The CAN box reads the vehicle’s digital signals out of the vehicle’s CAN-bus and converts

them for the video interface.

Version 24.09.2020 HW: CAM(V31)/(V22) CI-RL2-MTC

1.3.3. Dip-switch settings –interface

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 setting of dip8, we

recommend to try the other dip switch position.

After each Dip-switch-change a power-reset of the Can-box has to be performed!

See the following chapters for detailed information.

1.3.3.1. 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, because the disabled inputs

will be skipped while switching through the video interfaces inputs.

1.3.3.2. Rear-view camera setting (dip 5)

If set to OFF, the interface switches to factory LVDS 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.

1.3.3.3. Monitor specific settings (dip8)

Dip8 customizes the monitor-specific video settings.

Dip switch setting ON will support the 4.3inch monitor.

Dip switch setting OFF will support the 8.4inch monitor.

Note: Dip 1, 4, 6 and 7 are out of function and have 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.

If the necessary stabilized power supply for the interface is not taken directly from the

battery, the chosen connection has to be checked for being constantly stabile.

The interface needs a permanent 12V source!

2.1. Place of installation

2.1.1. Place of installation –video interface and CAN-bus box

The interface box and the CAN-bus box are prepared to be connected behind the vehicle`s

monitor and head-unit. Both parts have to be removed for the installation

Page9

2.3. Connection - video-interface and Power / CAN

Connect the 6pin to 8pin cable’s both white female 6pin and 8pin connectors to the

male 6pin and 8pin connectors of the video interface.

Disconnect the female 22pin connector of the factory harness at the rear-side of the

head unit and connect it to the 22pin PNP cable’s male 22pin connector.

Connect the 22pin PNP cable’s opposite female 22pin connector to the previously

become free male 22pin connector at the rear-side of the head unit.

Version 24.09.2020 HW: CAM(V31)/(V22) CI-RL2-MTC

2.4. Analogue connecting - video-interface

If the communication between the CAN box and the vehicle’s CAN bus does not succeed (not

all vehicles are compatible), an analogue connection is required by connecting the 6pin to

8pin cable without the CN box.

Connect the female 6pin connector of the 6pin to 8pin cable to the 6pin connector

of the video interface.

Connect the yellow, the red and the black wire of the 6pin to 78pin cable to the

vehicle’s power and ground.

Note: The connection of the green wire (Reverse signal) will be described in chapter “After-

market rear-view camera”. The white wire, can be used to switch the enabled video sources

, same as the keypad (see chapter “video interface-operation”). The grey wire stays

unconnected.
