is engaged.
1.3.2.4. Monitor selection (dip 7-8)
Dips are not used.
2. Installation
Switch off ignition and disconnect the vehicle’s battery! The interface needs a permanent
12V source. If according to factory rules disconnecting the battery is to be avoided, it is
usually sufficient to put the vehicle is sleep-mode. In case the sleep-mode does not show
success, disconnect the battery with a resistor lead.
If power source is not taken directly from the battery, the connection has to be checked
for being start-up proven and permanent.
2.1. Place of installation
The interface is installed on the backside of the factory monitor and on the backside of the
head-unit.

2.3. Connecting video-interface and CAN-box
The CAN-bus box reads digital signals from the CAN-bus and converts them for the video-
interface. ACC +12V max. 0.5A (red of 6pin) and reverse gear +12V max. 0.5A (green of 6pin)
constant signal. Video-source switching (white of 6pin) as +12V impulse.
Connect black female 10pin Micro-Fit connector of the Quadlock harness to the male
10pin Micro-Fit connector of the CAN-box.
Note: Check LEDs on CAN-box after reconnecting the battery, two must be on.
Connect white female 6pin Molex connector of the 6+2pin to 8pin cable to the male
6pin Molex connector of the video-interface.
Connect black female 8pin Micro-Fit connector of the 6+2pin to 8pin cable to male
8pin Micro-Fit connector of the CAN-box.
Note: Check LEDs on video-interface after reconnecting the battery, one must be on.
Note: The CAN-box is not compatible with all vehicles. If the CAN-box does not deliver ACC
to pin2 of the video-interface or blocks the vehicle CAN, it is possible to install without CAN-
box. In this case see also note in chapter after-market rear-view camera if one is supposed to
be connected.
