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, 15 or 20

seconds (adjustable) after disengaging the reverse gear. A manually

front camera switching is possible by external keypad.

Guidelines and PDC Displayed guidelines and PDC are not available in all vehicles.

1.2. Checking the compatibility of vehicle and accessories

Version 20.04.2021 HW: CAM(V100)/(V20) CI-RL4-MIB100

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.

Version 20.04.2021 HW: CAM(V100)/(V20) CI-RL4-MIB100

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.

*The front camera will automatically be switched for 10, 15 or 20 seconds after disengaging

the reverse gear (according to the menu adjustments).

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

1.4.1. Activating the front camera (dip 1)

If set to ON, the interface switches for 10, 15 or 20 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.

Description of the power supply output: see chapter “Power supply output”.

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.

Note: If there is no communication between interface and the vehicle`s CAN-bus (several

vehicles aren’t compatible), 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!

1.4.5. Activation of the factory PDC display (Dip 7)

Dip 7 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.

For a detailed description, see chapter "Switching the Camera Image Formats and Factory

PDC Display ".

Dip switches 4 and 8 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

The interface is supposed to be installed at a suitable location behind the vehicle`s head-

unit.
