Introduction
Thank you for selecting an INTEC Car Vision™ System. Before using your system, please be sure to
read and understand these instructions carefully. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not
hesitate to contact us toll free at 800-468-3254 (west) or 800-522-5989 (east). You may also reach us via
e-mail at info@intecvideo.com
This Guide is intended to provide you with information needed to successfully operate your INTEC Video
Systems mobile video safety system.
Important Information
Please read this guide carefully before use.
There are no user serviceable parts inside the system components. All service must be completed by
authorized service personnel only. Please refer to the Warranty section described later in this manual.
Always use the proper tools, wear protective clothing and take necessary precautions when working
around electricity to prevent electrical shock.
Use only INTEC specifi ed and provided cables to connect the components of the system. Use of other
than INTEC specifi ed and supplied components and cabling could be dangerous and result in damage to
the system components and void the warranty.
Use only INTEC specifi ed and supplied accessories and options when upgrading your system.
Operating the camera system on too low or too high a voltage may damage the system.
Always confi rm the view provided by the camera is adequate for your needs prior to vehicle use.
Adjustments to the camera viewing angle should be made before use, if necessary.
Most states have laws pertaining to motor vehicles equipped with a video display within the driver’s fi eld
of vision, either directly or indirectly, unless the video display is used in conjunction with a back up safety
camera to monitor the blind spots around the vehicle. INTEC’s products are specifi cally designed to

Warnings and Cautions
Warnings
Do NOT attempt to connect other electrical devices to the power wire harness of the Car Vision™ System
as this can cause an over current situation which can lead to electrical shock or fi re.
If at any time you see or smell smoke coming from the Car Vision™ System, stop driving, exit the
vehicle and disconnect main power. Check the system and remove any damaged components before you
resume normal vehicle operation.
Do NOT attach the wiring to any moving parts, across sharp edges or close to heat sources as this may
cause shorting of the wires and may lead to a fi re or electrical shock.
When installing the camera system be certain that all items are secure. Items that are not secure or
mounted in an unstable manner can come loose and cause damage or personal injury.
When installing the system be sure to use only INTEC supplied brackets. The Car Vision™ camera must
be insulated from the vehicle body. The supplied camera bracket provides the required insulation. Failure
to do so could result in a fi re and lead to property damage or personal injury.
Do NOT install the camera in any area that allows it to extend out past the vehicle as this can cause injury
if it were to come in contact with people walking around the vehicle.
Never use fuses of a larger rating than those supplied with your Car Vision™™ System. Use of larger
rated fuses can cause excessive current through the system if a short occurs and could lead to a fi re.
Cautions
Confi rm that the orientation of the image on the display is proper. Rear facing cameras should yield a
mirror image, where items on the left of the vehicle appear on the left side of the monitor.
Before you begin driving, be sure the display controls are adjusted properly. This will avoid unnecessary
distractions while driving.
Do NOT attempt to open or service your equipment. Removal of the product enclosure can lead to
electrical shock. No user serviceable parts inside.
You should not attempt to make any adjustments to the Car Vision™ System while driving as this can
lead to an accident. Only make adjustments when the vehicle is stopped.
Keep the Car Vision™ System clean and free from dirt, snow and ice. If the camera glass or display panel
becomes dirty, clean them before use. If they are covered with snow and/or ice, it should be cleared off
before use. Failure to do so could lead to an accident.
When running a cable from the exterior to the interior of a vehicle, care needs to be taken to seal the
entry point. Failure to do so could allow in exhaust fumes, other toxic gases or water.
What this Manual Covers
This manual covers the information necessary for the proper operation of your Car Vision™ Mobile Video
Safety System. Information on installing your system can be found on the Quick Installation Guides provided with your equipment or by visiting www.intecvideo.com/installation.html

Getting Started
Turning On your Car Vision™ System
Your Car Vision™ System, when properly installed, is activated automatically when power is applied to
the trigger wire(s), typically reverse, but it can also be activated manually via the ON/SB button on the
remote. Note: The vehicle’s ignition switch must be on or the vehicle must be running for the system to
operate.
When activated automatically (triggered) by placing the vehicle in reverse the system will turn on
providing you with a clear image of what is behind your vehicle. Additionally an on screen distance grid
(pictured below) will appear. The distance grid is for reference only and does not equate to any specifi c
measurement.
Verifying Proper Image Orientation
The orientation of the image displayed is critical to safe vehicle operation. An object on the right side of
your vehicle needs to be seen on the right side of the displayed image.
Generally, if your display is facing rearwards, you would want a Mirror image displayed from a camera
facing rearward and a True image displayed from a camera facing forward. The image orientation of
cameras on the right or left side of a vehicle depends on how far off of center they are facing.
For example; a camera mounted on the right or left side of the vehicle facing straight out would usually
require a true image to be displayed. But angle the camera towards the rear and a mirror image may be
required. Always confi rm proper image orientation before operating your vehicle.
How to Change Your Displayed Image Orientation
INTEC’s CVC Series cameras are set as default at the factory to display a mirror image when used with
our CVD Series displays. Should you need to change the default image, you can do so through the
displays on screen Installers Menu, see page 8for additional information. Additionally a number of our
CVC series cameras are equipped with image reversal switches refer to your cameras quick installation
guide for additional information.
Adjusting the Screen Brightness
Adjustments can be made to the LCD screen intensity level by pressing the Up or Down Arrow buttons on
the remote control. NOTE: If your Dimmer function is set to AUTO your screen brightness will revert back
to its original setting when the power is cycled.

Advanced Features
Integrated Active Object Detection (Radar)
The integrated radar, when properly connected, will send a visual alert to the Car Vision™ display and an
audible alert to the Car Vision™ remote when an object is detected within its operating range. The visual
alert consists of OSD markers on the left and right sides of the display screen. When properly connected
and powered green markers at the top of the screen will be present, indicating the radar is active. When
an object is detected in the outer most detection area, the fi rst of 5 red markers will activate starting at the
top of the screen, just under the green markers. As the object gets closer to the radar sensor(s) additional
red markers will illuminate in succession from the top of the screen to the bottom as well as start fl ashing
and an audible beeping will be heard through the remote. While in reverse, the on-screen distance grid
will also fl ash off and on according to the detected object’s distance from the sensor as shown below.
The integrated radar will only operate when connected via an INTEC cable to the camera connector and
the system is triggered, via the blue wire, with a +11 to +32 VDC source.
In addition there is a source voltage 1 amp Radar Alarm output (green) wire in the controller’s power
harness that can be used to activate an external device in the event your radar sensor detects an
object within it’s range. ALARM must be set to ON in the installer’s menu and the radar must be
detecting an object within its range before the output voltage is present. NOTE: Radar is only available
with the CVS100M and CVS100XL controllers. It is NOT available with the CVS100H.
External Video Input / Output (only available on the CVS100 series controller)
Your system is equipped with an external video input that allows you to connect another video source.
That source can be from another camera, GPS, or any other composite video source.
In addition to the video input there is also a video and audio output. These allow you to output your native* Car Vision™ camera video to an alternate display or DVR. The audio (when used with an audio
capable camera) can be output to an alternate speaker, display or DVR.
Use of the Video Input / Output requires the optional CVS100VO3M or CVS100MVO3M cable harness
available from INTEC.
* The output video is native from the camera meaning it sends video straight from the camera to the video output which in most
cases will produce a true image recording as opposed to the mirror image as seen on the display. To get a mirror image recording
you’ll need to reverse the camera image as well as set the image orientation in the display to NOR.
Not all cameras are fi eld reversible and may need to be returned to INTEC to have the image reversed. Please contact INTEC for
additional information.

External Video Input
Your system is equipped with an external video input that allows you to connect another video source.
That source can be from another camera, GPS, or any other composite video source.
Verifying Proper Image Orientation
The orientation of the image displayed is critical to safe vehicle operation. An object on the right side of
your vehicle needs to be seen on the right side of the displayed image regardless of camera location.
Orientation Requirements
Generally, if your display is facing rearwards, you would want a Mirror image displayed from a camera
facing rearward and a True image displayed from a camera facing forward. The image orientation of
cameras on the right or left side of a vehicle depends on how far off of center they are facing. For
example; a camera mounted on the right side at 90º off of the front would usually require a true image to
be displayed. But set the camera to 91º off of the front and a mirror image may be required. Be sure to
confi rm the image(s) displayed are appropriate for your application before operating the vehicle.
How to Change Your Displayed Image Orientation
INTEC’s CVC Series cameras are set as default at the factory to display a mirror image when used with
our CVD or CVM Series displays and monitors. Should you need to change the default image, you have
the option of changing it at the camera or the display. To change the image orientation at the display, refer
to page 12 of this guide.
Note: Not all INTEC cameras can be changed in the fi eld; some may need to be returned to INTEC to
have the image changed. Refer to your camera’s Quick Installation Guide for information on your
particular camera. Always confi rm proper orientation before operating your vehicle.
Naming Input and Radar Positions
Each input (camera) and radar position can be named as to its purpose. For example, the rear camera
can be named “REAR”. By naming the camera position, the operator will be able to clearly identify what
camera view they are looking at when they switch positions. Names can be up to 8 characters long and
can include letters, numbers and spaces.
Page 16
Page 17
Multi Camera View
There are 4 multi camera views available. They are; Quad, Tri Up, Tri Low, and Dual.
The multi camera views are fully programmable through the on-screen menu and allow you to select
which camera position(s), 0 – 5, are displayed in each view. Setting a camera positions to “0” will
effectively turn that position off. Setting all camera positions to “0” will display a grey screen.
To select what view will be displayed via the <EXT> button please refer to the installers menu.
Note: Only one Multi camera view can be displayed via the <EXT> button.
Triggered Multi Camera View
In addition to the standard multi camera view there is a trigger-able multi camera view available. This
additional view is set up in the same manner as above and is accessed by applying +11 to +32 VDC to
the orange trigger wire.
Refer to the following images for the multi camera and triggered multi camera views available.
Tri-Low Dual
Quad Tri-Up

Programmable Auto Camera Cycle
The Auto Cycle or Dwell feature allows the user to select time intervals from 1 to 20 seconds for each
camera position, including external video in, that will display the corresponding camera position on the
screen for the preset period of time before cycling to the next camera position. Setting the cycle time to
“0” (zero) will exclude that position from being displayed during the cycle. Refer to the On-Screen Menu
section of this guide for information on setting up the programmable camera cycle.
Once set up the Auto Cycle can be accessed by either pressing the CYCLE button on the remote or via
the cycle trigger wire.
Note: If all camera positions are set to “0”, the cycle function is disabled.
Programmable External Auto Camera Cycle
In addition to the Programmable Auto Camera Cycle there is a Programmable External Auto Camera
Cycle that allows you to set an alternate cycle function and record it via one of the available video outputs. Setting the external auto camera cycle is done through the installers menu and in the same manner
as the programmable auto camera cycle.
Refer to the On-Screen Installer Menu section of this guide for information on setting up the programmable external camera cycle.
Note: The external Auto Camera Cycle is only available when set via an available video output.
Programmable Audio and Video Out
Up to 6 video outputs (3 video outputs for the CVS500M) and up to 2 audio outputs can be programmed
to display any single camera position, as well as, the multi-screen views and the external automatic cycle
regardless of what is currently being displayed on the screen.
The outputs will continue to provide video out to record whether the display is on or in standby. Use of
the external video and audio output feature is possible only when the controller is combined with an Intec
CVD series display and additional video I/O cable, sold separately. Refer to the On-Screen Installer Menu
section of this guide for information on setting up the programmable audio and video outputs.
Note: Programmable Audio and Video outputs are only available in the CVS500 Version 2.0 or later
controller and provide native camera video, therefore the image recorded may display opposite of that
shown on the Car Vision™ display.

Integrated Active Object Detection (Radar)
The integrated radar, when properly connected, will send a visual alert to the Car Vision™™ display and
an audible alert to the Car Vision™ remote when an object is detected within its operating range. The
visual alert consists of OSD markers on the left and right sides of the display screen. When properly connected and powered green markers at the top of the screen will be present, indicating the radar is active.
When an object is detected in the outer most detection area, the fi rst of 5 red markers will activate starting

fl ashing and an audible beeping will be heard through the remote. While in reverse, the on-screen distance grid will also fl ash off and on according to the detected object’s distance from the sensor as shown
below.
The integrated radar is available for camera positions 1 and 2, and will only operate when connected via
an INTEC cable to either of those positions. Radar 1 is activated via a +11 to +32 VDC source applied to
the camera 1 trigger (blue) wire. Radar 2 is active anytime there is power applied to the system and
camera 1 is NOT triggered, even if the system is in Standby.
In addition there is a source voltage 1 amp Radar Alarm output (green) wire in the controller’s power
harness that can be used to activate an external device in the event your radar sensor detects an
object within it’s range. ALARM must be set to ON in the installer’s menu and the radar must be
detecting an object within its range before the output voltage is present. NOTE: Radar is only available
with the CVS500M and CVS500XL controllers. It is NOT available with the CVS500H.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Preventative Maintenance
The most effective way of reducing camera system failure is regular preventative maintenance. At least
once every two weeks and/or every time the vehicle is in for its scheduled maintenance is recommended.
Although it would be diffi cult to cover every possible scenario, the following are some examples to look
for:
1. Physical damage to the camera. Examples: cracked camera glass, bent front covers, damaged casing
or brackets.
2. Dirt or moisture on the camera’s glass. Cleaning the camera’s glass should be done with a clean, soft
cloth to prevent scratching. For excessive dirt build up, you may need to rinse the camera glass with
water or glass cleaner fi rst.
3. Scratched camera glass. Excessive scratches on the cameras glass can distort the image. Cameras
with scratched glass should be returned to INTEC for service.
4. Moisture behind the camera glass. If this is found, simply removing the cover and wiping off the glass
will not solve the problem. Repairing the source of where the moisture is coming into the camera is the
only way to prevent it from happening again. The camera should be returned to INTEC for service.
5. Damage to the cable and the connector seal. This includes the main cable as well as the camera and
monitor pigtails. Examples: Cuts or abrasions in the cable, cuts in the connector seal or a connector seal
that has come loose. Note: Connector sealing is not required in the XL and Hirose Camera Series.
6. Dirt on the display. Cleaning the display should be done with a clean, soft cloth to prevent scratching.
For excessive dirt build up you can lightly dampen your cloth with water or glass cleaner.
7. Physical damage to the display, remote or controller and its power conductors. Examples: Cracked
display casing, missing parts, exposed power wires.
8. Equipment that has come loose. Examples: Cables that are not secure, cameras, displays, and their
brackets which may have come loose.
9. Educating the drivers on reporting minor problems before they become major problems. Example:
Unreported moisture intrusion can result in the camera being damaged beyond repair. By taking a few
minutes to inspect the camera system on a regular basis you will ensure long-term reliability with
minimum cost and down time.
Periodic checks of the camera system components and wiring will help spot potential trouble areas before
they result in a system failure. An excellent time to check is each time the vehicle is in for routine
maintenance.
