Installation procedure – function check
Follow the below procedure using the “Connections” scheme from chapter 2.2. as reference.
Before the installation of the sources and the interface we recommend a first quick
connection of the interface and test run to ensure that vehicle and product are compatible.
Due to changes in production of the vehicle manufacturer there is always the possibility of
incompatibility.

- Disconnect the factory harness’ femaleMitsumi LVDS connector from monitor
control- box and connect it to male LVDS Mitsumi connector of video interface
- Connect female Mitsumi interface LVDS connector male Mitsumi LVDS connector of
monitor control-box
- Connect 6pin power cable to video interface and to power as described in chapter
2.2.
- Connect white wire of 6pin power cable (iDrv) to pin 16 of the 20pin connector from
the monitor control box (alternatively by external switch +12V, see chapter 3.)
- If 2 audio sources shall be used, connect it according to chapter 2.6.
- Connect Mitsumi interface LVDS cable to LVDS IN of video interface
- Reconnect battery and turn on ignition
- Check LEDs on CAN box and video interface, one on each must be on
- Try to activate video sources by infotainment buttons and by external switch (see
chapter 3.), using a test picture source
- If camera is (to be) connected connect green wire of 6pin power cable to +12V to see
whether the automatic switching to camera input works. Later connect green wire to
reverse gear light, using a relay
- If 2 audio sources shall be used, connect the audio wires and check the audio

Note: If the interface is used in combination with the AUX-in interfaces AUX-1xx, the white
iDrv wire can alternatively be connected to the orange activation wire of the AUX-in
interface. Then the AV-inputs will be controlled by the AUX-in interface (see manual of the
AUX-1xx).
Important! Do not connect the white wire additionally to pin 16 of the monitor control box
when connected to the AUX-in interface.
