Supplementary information for operating the product.

2 Safety and installation instructions

The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage in the following cases:

• Faulty assembly or connection
- Damage to the product resulting from mechanical influences and excess voltage
• Alterations to the product without express permission from the manufacturer
- Use for purposes other than those described in the operating manual

Please observe the prescribed safety instructions and stipulations from the vehicle manufacturer and service workshops.

Observe the following installation instructions:

CAUTION!

• Secure the parts installed in the vehicle to ensure they cannot become loose under any circumstances (sudden braking, accidents) and cause injuries to vehicle occupants.
• Always follow the safety instructions of the vehicle manufacturer. Some work (e.g. on retention systems such as the AIRBAG etc.) may only be performed by qualified specialists.

NOTICE!

• To prevent damage when drilling, make sure there is sufficient space on the other side for the drill head to emerge.
• Deburr all drill holes and treat them with a rust-protection agent.

Observe the following instructions when working with electrical parts:

NOTICE!

• Only use a diode test lamp or voltmeter to test voltages in electric cables. Test lamps with a bulb consume too much voltage, which can damage the vehicle's electronic system.
• When routing the 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.

• Insulate all connections.

- Secure the cables against mechanical wear by using cable binders or insulating tape, for example on existing cables.

The camera is waterproof, however, you should observe the following instructions when handling the camera:

NOTICE!

• Do not spray the camera directly with a high-pressure cleaning device.
• Do not open the camera, as this impairs the leak-tightness and the function of the camera.
• Do not pull at the cables, as this impairs the leak-tightness and the function of the camera.
• The camera is not suitable for submerged operation.

The CAM29N camera (ref. no. 9600000051) is suitable for reversing video systems used in vehicles.

Reversing video systems support the driver when reversing, however this does not relieve you of the obligation to take proper care when reversing.

6 Technical description

The CAM29N camera can be used for many different purposes, for example:

• As a reversing video camera for vehicles for installation in the bumper
  • As a side camera in an HGV
• As entrance monitors in buses
• For hidden indoor surveillance.

The CAM29N reversing video camera is comprised of a camera and the mounting case for optional installation.

The camera can be installed directly, for example in a bumper.

The power is connected using a cable ready to plug into the monitor.

7 Installing the reversing video camera

NOTE

If you do not have sufficient technical knowledge to install and connect the components in vehicles, you should have a specialist install the reversing video camera in your vehicle.

7.1 Installing the camera

Observe the following information when selecting an installation location for the camera:

• Note the length of the camera cable.
• If you wish to use the camera as a reversing video camera, installing the camera in the middle of the bumper is recommended (fig. 4, page 4).
  The installation location on the bumper should be perpendicular to the road surface to ensure the camera is aligned horizontally.

The camera has a 90^ horizontal field of view. Due to the field of view, the reversing video camera can only detect objects near the corner of the vehicle to a limited extent.

The following section describes the procedure for installing the reversing video camera in the bumper. You can also install the camera in other positions, depending on how you wish to use it.

NOTE

The installation sleeve provided (fig. 3, 2, page 4) is not required for the installation procedure described here.

▶Select a suitable installation location.

NOTICE!

Before drilling any holes, ensure that no electrical cables or other parts of the vehicle can be damaged by drilling, sawing and filing.

▶Drill a hole in the bumper with a diameter of 17 mm.
▶ Guide the camera with the socket at the front into the drill hole as far as it will go. Make sure that the camera is aligned correctly.

NOTE

Make sure it is correctly aligned. If the camera is not correctly aligned, the picture will be askew or upside down on the monitor.

▶Check that the camera is installed securely.

It must be firmly seated and may not fall out of the drill holes due to vibrations.

7.2 Laying cables

NOTICE!

Before drilling any holes, ensure that no electrical cables or other parts of the vehicle can be damaged by drilling, sawing and filing.

NOTE

• As far as possible, use original ducts for laying the cables, or other suitable options such as panelling edges, ventilation grilles or dummy plugs. If there is no rubber plug, produce a suitable hole with a diameter of around 13 mm and insert a cable bushing sleeve.
• Cables and connections that are not properly installed will cause malfunctions or damage to components. Correct installation of cables and connections ensures lasting and trouble-free operation of the retrofitted components.

Therefore, please observe the following instructions:

• Wherever possible, lay cables inside the vehicle, as they are better protected there than outside.
  If you do need to lay a cable outside the vehicle, ensure that it is well fastened (use additional cable ties, insulating tape etc.).
• To prevent damage to the cables when laying them, ensure that they are far enough away from hot or moving vehicle components (exhaust pipes, drive shafts, light systems, fans, heaters, etc.).
• Wrap good-quality insulating tape around the plug connections of the connecting cables and every connection on a cable (including inside the vehicle) to ensure no water can penetrate them (fig. 5 page 5). The most suitable tape for this is self-vulcanising tape, e.g. made by 3M.

- When 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. 2, page 3).

- Attach the cables securely in the vehicle with cable binders, insulating tape or by glueing them to prevent them from being tripped over.

- Protect every through-hole made in the outer skin of the bodywork against water penetration, for example by using a cable with a sealant and by spraying the cable and the cable sleeve with sealant.

NOTE

• Only start sealing through-holes when you have completed all installation work on the camera and have laid the required cable lengths.
• Pull the socket connector of the camera cable through the cable bushing sleeve before inserting the sleeve in the bodywork.

Route the camera cable into the interior of the vehicle so that it cannot be damaged under any circumstances (e.g. by gravel impact).
▶ Lay the camera cable so that should you need to remove the camera, you can easily access the plug connection.
This facilitates the disassembly considerably.

8 Connecting electrical power to the reversing video camera

The circuit diagram for the reversing video camera can be found in fig. 6, page 5.

Connecting the camera

NOTE

Make sure the plug connections are assembled in such a way that the arrows on the plug and the socket are pointing at each other (fig. 5, page 5).

▶ Insert the plug of the camera cable (fig. 6 2, page 5) as far as it will go into the 6-pin socket (fig. 6 3, page 5) of the connection cable.
Make sure that the plastic cap of the socket reaches up to the arrow on the plug.
▶ Connect the 6-pin plug (fig. 6 4, page 5) on the connection cable to the monitor.

9 Checking the function and adjusting the camera

▶Check the function of the camera after you have connected it to a monitor.
▶ Use the monitor picture to align the camera if necessary so that the picture on the monitor is horizontal.

10 Maintaining and cleaning the reversing video camera

NOTICE!

Do not use sharp or hard objects or cleaning agents for cleaning as these may damage the product.

▶Occasionally clean the product with a damp cloth.

11 Troubleshooting

The monitor ceases to display camera images.

The camera or the monitor may not be properly connected.

▶ Check all plug connections between the camera and the monitor.
▶Ensure that the monitor is supplied with power.
