1. Aer ga ining access to the HMI module, Disconnect the gray, 12-pin plug from the OEM HM circled above.
2. Disconnect the black, 16-pin plug from the OEM HMI circled above.
3. Connect the provided UNI-CAM 12-pin & 16-pin (male end) connectors into the HMI plug locaons from steps 1 & 2.
4. Connect the factory 12-pin & 16-pin plugs (previously connected to the HMI) into the provided Plug & Play T-Harness (female end).
5. NTV-KIT629 Installaon (with exisng OEM reverse camera):

a. When connecng a front camera (or AUX video source) to a vehicle with an exisng OEM reverse camera, the internal relay on the UNI-CAM board is not used (RCA I/Os from module). Complete all connecns on page 5 (FIG 2) using the included VSW-R (included with KIT629) to prevent 'bleed-over' image (when in front camera mode). This includes the following:
b. Black wire of VSW to chassis ground
c. OUTPUT 3 (from module) to White/Red of VSW
d. RCA connecons as shown in diagram (FIG 2)
e. Connue with installaon on page 4, step 7.

1. NTV-KIT630 Installaon (without exisng OEM reverse camera):

a. Adding a single rear camera: power your camera with an ACC source or OUTPUT 1 (especially if using the forced feature), and connect your camera signal directly to the female RCA (into the HMI) from the 12-pin gray plug.
b. Adding 2 aermarket cameras: Instead of connecng camera signal directly to the HMI, connect the RVC signal to the RCA labeled 'BACKUP CAM' at the UNI-CAM module. Connect the front cam/AUX video to the RCA labeled 'FRONT CAM'. Connect the (male) 'VIDEO OUT' RCA to the female RCA from the CAM T-Harness (at the HMI). Leave the male RCA on the CAM T-Harness disconnected.
c. If this vehicle is equipped with a 4" screen, connect INPUT 3 (pink) to a CONSTANT 12v source.

NOTE: If this wire is not connected, the UNI-CAM PRG will program for 8" screen (image will appear zoomed in).

d. Connue with installaon on step 7 (next page).

GM UNI-CAM Installaon (2017+ with OEM HMI Bypass Module ONLY)

The following page only applies to 2017+ vehicles equipped with an OEM rear camera.

• In some compatible 2017+ vehicles, the system is equipped with an additional module called the 'HMI Bypass Module' which routes LVDS and camera images to the screen from the HMI. If equipped, the module is normally located directly beneath the BCM (driver's side under dash).
  • A quick easy way to test for the presence of the HMI Bypass Module:

• Access the OEM HMI unit (see chart on page 3)

• Connect the provided CAM T-Harness in between the 12-pin plug at the HMI and the vehicle's 12-pin connector, connect RCAs together
  ○ Start vehicle. Place vehicle into reverse gear.
  With OEM reverse image on the screen, disconnect the RCAs in the CAM T-Harness.
  If the reverse image remains on screen with the RCA disconnected, this vehicle is equipped with the HMI Bypass Module. This means that in the following scenarios, the wiring must be completed dierently:

Scenario 1: If introducing AUX video (or front camera) is desired while in reverse gear, the secondary camera must be connected at the HMI Bypass Module, instead of at the HMI itself (See FIG 3, next page). If AUX video is only necessary outside of reverse gear, then you may connect it normally (FIG 1. NOTE: for these special vehicles, the VSW-R is not necessary – plug signal directly into the CAM T-Harness).

Scenario 2: If the user wishes to be able to force the OEM tailgate camera at any me, then a reverse wire must be cut and powered dierently at the vehicle's BCM. See FIG 4.

GM UNI-CAM Installaon: Forcing OEM camera (2017+ vehicles only)

- For 2017+ vehicles only, those equipped with the HMI Bypass (as discussed on page 8), a reverse power wire must be cut and supplied with ACC 12v (+) power at the BCM instead in order for forced OEM rear camera to funcon properly. NOTE: if adding an aermarket rear camera, this step is not needed.

1. Locate the vehicle BCM. For most vehicles, this is underneath the driver's dashboard, beneath the steering wheel.
2. On the BCM there are mulple 20-30 pin plugs. Locate the brown, 26-pin plug.
3. In the brown plug, pin 26 (blue/brown) is 'Backup Lamp Relay Control'. Cut this wire in half.
4. Extend an ACC 12v (+) source (or use Output 1 from the UNI-CAM module) and connect it to the vehicle side (not BCM side) of the cut wire.
5. Isolate the other end of the cut blue/brown wire.
6. Now, when Input 1 receives 12v (through a toggle), the rear camera will show regardless of gear or speed.

GM UNI-CAM Programming (KIT630 ONLY)

DISCLAIMER: DO NOT disconnect the programmer during programming – this may result in complete radio brick (factory limitaon). NAV-TV is not responsible for failure to comply with this rule.

1. Once all connexons are made, turn the key to the IGNITION ON posion. Watch the LED on the UNICAM Module and verify ash codes below.
2. Wait for radio to reboot fully. The radio may reboot more than once – wait a few minutes.

Programming is complete when the LED ashes 5 mes.

LED Response	Descripon
1 ash	Waing for Ignion... (Turn ignition to ON)
2 ashes	Waing for Vehicle VIN...
3 ashes	Query Vehicle (Reading/decoding the VIN and vehicle components)
4 ashes	Programming...
5 ashes	Programming Complete
6 ashes	No Programming Needed (Already programmed)
7 ashes	Radio Not Supported (Verify this vehicle is equipped with IOH Radio Code)
8 ashes	Out of Licenses (Contact NAV-TV to purchase more licenses)

1. Cycle the vehicle key once (turn o, wait 5 seconds, turn back to IGNITION ON)
2. Verify 6 FLASHES from LED on module.
3. Verify that the radio accepted the program properly by placing the vehicle in reverse. The reverse screen should appear (or black screen if no camera connected yet) when in reverse only. NOTE: the vehicle may have to be running (engine) for the reverse camera to show (factory limitaon)
4. UPDATE: if nothing happens in reverse aer programming, disconnect the 20-pin power plug (black) at the OEM HMI module, then reconnect to reset the system manually. Once the radio has reset and booted fully, test for rear camera acvaon again.

GM UNI-CAM Operaon

• Aer installaon/programming is complete, placing the vehicle in reverse (with engine running) will show the connected camera automacally.
• Sending 12v to INPUT 1 through a toggle will force the rear camera on at any me, in any gear.*
• Sending 12v to INPUT 2 through a toggle will force the front camera (or aux video) on at any me.
• If Front Camera is acve and the vehicle is placed in reverse, the reverse image will show (priority). Once placed back into Drive or Park, the Front Camera will show again if sll acvated.

FLIR RADIO MEDIA Note: Once the transmission leaves reverse gear, there may be a \~5 second delay on transioning back to the radio screen. This is normal OE operaon. \*For aermarket cameras only. If OEM rear camera forced acon is wanted, the camera must be powered separately (OEM GM rear cameras are normally powered while in reverse only). See page 6 or 7 for (up to) 2016 vehicles, and page 10 for 2017+ vehicles.
