Legal Information
By law, watching moving pictures while driving is prohibited, the driver must not be
distracted. We do not accept any liability for material damage or personal injury resulting,

Changes/updates of the vehicle’s software can cause malfunctions of the interface. Up to
one year after purchase we offer free software-updates for our interfaces. To receive a free
update, the interface has to be sent in at own cost. Wages for de-and reinstallation and
other expenditures involved with the software-updates will not be refunded.
1. Prior to installation
Read the manual prior to installation. Technical knowledge is necessary for installation. The
place of installation must be free of moisture and away from heat sources.

Limitations
Video only The interface inserts ONLY video signals into the infotainment. For inserting
Audio signals either a FM-modulator or the factory audio-AUX-input can be
used, which can be coded by vehicle dealer.
Factory rear-view camera Automatically switching-back from inserted video to factory rear-view camera is
only possible while the reverse gear is engaged. To delay the switch-back an
additional electronic part is required.
1.2. Checking the compatibility of vehicle and accessories
1.3. Boxes and connectors
1.3.1. Video Interface
The video-interface converts the connected after-market sources video signals into a LVDS
signal which is inserted in the factory monitor using separate trigger options.
Version 17.02.2020 HW:25 (V92) VL2-CONCERT

1.3.2. CAN-bus box
The CAN box reads the vehicle’s digital signals out of the vehicle’s CAN-bus and converts
them for the video interface.
1.3.2.1. Dip-switch settings
Some settings must be selected by the dip-switches on the
video interface. Dip position down is ON and position up is OFF.
See the following chapters for detailed information.
After each Dip-switch-change a power-reset of the Can-box has to be performed!

1.3.2.2. Enabling the interface’s video inputs (dip 2-3)
Only the enabled video inputs can be accessed by switching through the interface’s video
sources. It is recommended to enable only the required inputs. So the disabled inputs will be
skipped while switching through the video interfaces inputs.
1.3.2.3. Rear-view camera setting (dip 5)
In the OFF position, the interface switches to factory LVDS picture while the reverse gear is
engaged to display factory rear-view camera or factory optical park system picture.
If the switch is set to ON, the interface switches to its rear-view camera input while the
reverse gear is engaged.
1.3.2.4. Monitor adjustments (dip 7-8)
Set Dip 7 and 8 to OFF.
2. Installation
To install the interface, first switch off the ignition and disconnect the vehicle’s battery.
Please read the owner`s manual of the car, regarding the battery`s disconnection! If
required, enable the car`s Sleep-mode (hibernation mode)
In case the sleep-mode does not succeed, the disconnection of the battery can be done
with a resistor lead.
If the necessary stabilized power supply for the interface is not taken directly from the
battery, the chosen connection has to be checked for being constantly stabile.
The interface needs a permanent 12V source!
2.1. Place of installation
The interface is built to be installed on the backside of the factory monitor, at the climate
control panel and on the backside of the vehicle’s head unit.
