Lo-Line Camera System
A shielded co-axial cable connection between the camera and the Touch Screen Display (TSD) is used for the video image transmission.
The camera receives power at all times when the ignition is in power mode 6. When reverse gear is selected, the CJB transmits a reverse selected signal on the medium speed CAN bus message to the integrated audio module (IAM).
When reverse gear is deselected, the camera image remains on the TSD for 10 seconds after the transmission has been put into drive 'D'. This is to prevent the TSD switching between screens if the vehicle is being maneuvered into a parking space. If the vehicle forward speed exceeds 16 km/h (10 mph) within the 10 second period, the camera image is removed from the TSD.
If the TSD display is switched off, the camera image will be automatically displayed when reverse gear is selected. When reverse gear is deselected and the 10 second period has expired, the TSD will revert back to its switched off state.
Rear View Camera
The rear view camera provides additional information to the driver when reversing the vehicle. When reverse gear is selected the camera integrated into the tailgate handle assembly, automatically displays a wide-angle color image of the view from the rear of the vehicle onto the TSD.
The rear view images are overlaid with:
- Dashed lines representing the perimeter of the vehicle.
- Fixed solid lines representing the vehicle's axle width.
The camera is connected to the vehicle harness by one 3 pin connector for the power, ground and the video co-axial cable.
The image captured by the camera is mirrored to give the driver a true representation of the rear view on the TSD.
