Setup
1. Pre-Installation Check
- Ensure all components listed in the package contents are present and undamaged.
- Verify compatibility with your existing VASTEND VL-BSD-7A or VL-BSD-10A monitor system.
- Disconnect the vehicle's battery before beginning installation to prevent electrical shorts.
2. Mounting the Camera
- Select an appropriate mounting location on the rear of your vehicle that provides a clear, unobstructed view. Common locations include above the license plate or near the rear bumper.
- Clean the mounting surface thoroughly.
- Secure the camera using the provided mounting hardware. Ensure it is firmly attached and angled correctly for optimal viewing.
3. Wiring Connection
- Route the camera's video cable from the mounting location to the monitor's input. Ensure the cable is protected from sharp edges, heat, and moving parts.
- Connect the camera's power wire to a suitable power source. For automatic activation when reversing, connect it to the vehicle's reverse light circuit. For continuous power, connect it to a constant 12V power source.
- Connect the video cable to the corresponding input on your VASTEND monitor.
- Reconnect the vehicle's battery.
Operating Instructions
- Power On: The camera will activate automatically when the vehicle is shifted into reverse, or when the connected power source is active (depending on wiring configuration).
- Viewing Feed: The camera's video feed will display on your compatible VASTEND monitor.
- Blind Spot Detection: If your monitor system supports BSD, the camera will provide data for pedestrian and vehicle detection. Audible alerts will sound if an object is detected within the customizable monitored area.
- Night Vision: The infrared night vision feature will automatically engage in low-light conditions, providing clear images without user intervention.
Maintenance
- Cleaning the Lens: Regularly clean the camera lens with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, dust, or water spots. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the lens.
- Cable Inspection: Periodically inspect the wiring for any signs of wear, fraying, or damage. Ensure all connections remain secure.
- Mounting Security: Check the camera's mounting periodically to ensure it remains firmly attached and has not shifted due to vibrations or impacts.
- Waterproofing: Despite its IP69 rating, avoid directing high-pressure water jets directly at the camera for extended periods during vehicle washing.
