What this Manual Covers
This manual covers the information necessary for the proper use 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
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.
info@intecvideo.com
Use only INTEC specifi ed and provided brackets and cables to connect the components of the system. Use of other than
INTEC specifi ed and supplied brackets 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 enhance vehicle safety. Use of an INTEC display
to view video in any manner other than intended requires installation in accordance with your state laws.

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 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.
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.
Cautions
Before you begin driving, be sure the display controls are adjusted properly. This will avoid unnecessary distractions while
driving.
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.
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.

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 a camera on the right or left side of
the vehicle will depend 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 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 9 for system applications using a CVS100 or CVS102 series controller or page 13 for system applications using
the CVS500 series controller for 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 (CVS100 or CVS102)
External Video Input / Output (available in 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. Note: The image orientation is native from the input
source and not reversible through display. In addition to the video input there is also a video and audio output. These al-
low 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 TRUE.
Note: Not available in EXT.
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.
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 illuminate indicating the radar is active. When an object is detected in the outer most detection area, the fi rst
of 5 red markers will illuminate starting at the top of the screen, directly below the green markers. As the object gets closer
to the radar sensor(s), or if the vehicle is moving and getting closer to the object, additional red markers will illuminate and
fl ash, and a beep increasing in frequency will be heard through the remote. While in reverse, the on-screen distance grid
will also fl ash according to the detected object’s distance from the sensor as shown below.
The integrated radar will operate only when connected via an INTEC cable to the Camera input on the controller. The
radar is activated via a +11 to +32 VDC source applied to the blue trigger wire of the controller’s power harness.
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 its 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 CVS100 or 102M and CVS100 or 102XL controllers. It is NOT available in
the CVS100H or CVS102H.

Advanced Features when used with a CVS500 Controller.
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. Note: The image orientation is native from the input
source and not reversible through display.
Use of the Video Input requires the optional CVS500VO3M or CVS500MVO3M cable harness available from INTEC.
*Adding an INTEC CVC series camera to the External Video Input requires the VAP adapter. Contact your INTEC sales
representative for additional information.
Programmable Video / Audio Output
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. Use of the
External Video / Audio output requires INTEC’s CVS500VO3M (for CVS500H and XL controllers) or CVS500MVO3M (for
CVS500M controllers) video I/O harness.
Refer to the On-Screen Installer Menu pages 7 and 8 or page 15 of this guide for information on setting up the
programmable audio and video outputs.
* 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 TRUE.
Note: Not available in EXT.
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.
Note: Programmable Audio and Video outputs are only available in the CVS500 Controller Version 2.0 or later and provide
native camera video, therefore the image recorded may display opposite of that shown on the Car Vision® display. Some
INTEC CVC Series cameras are equipped with an image reversal switch. See your cameras quick installation guide for
details or contact INTEC for additional information or assistance in setting up your particular application.
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 quickly and 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, special
characters and spaces. Refer to page 3 of the Installers menu or page 14 of this guide for instructions on setting up input
names.

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 illuminate indicating the radar is active. When an object is detected in the outer most detection area, the fi rst
of 5 red markers will illuminate starting at the top of the screen, directly below the green markers. As the object gets closer
to the radar sensor(s), or if the vehicle is moving and getting closer to the object, additional red markers will illuminate and
fl ash, and a beep increasing in frequency will be heard through the remote. While in reverse, the on-screen distance grid
will also fl ash 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 operate only when connected via an INTEC cable
to either of those positions on the controller. Radar 1 is activated via a +11 to +32 VDC source applied to the blue trigger wire of the controller’s power harness. 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. Should an object be detected by radar 2 when the system is in
Standby(or if a camera other than 1 or 2 is selected?), the display will turn on and display the video from camera 2 as well
as provide the radar alert as described above..
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.

Camera 1 through 5, Multi Display and Cycle triggers follow a priority sequence with camera 1 having the highest priority
followed by camera 2 and so on until the Cycle trigger, with the Cycle trigger having the lowest priority. The following chart
shows the priority sequencing.
Trigger Priority
Wire Color Function Priority
Blue Camera 1 Trigger 1st
Yellow Camera 2 Trigger 2nd
White Camera 3 Trigger 3rd
Green Camera 4 Trigger 4th
Brown Camera 5 Trigger 5th
Orange Multi Display Trigger 6th
Light Blue Cycle Trigger 7th
Turn Signal Triggering
The CVS500 is equipped with pulse latch triggering on camera position 2 and 3. This pulse latch will allow the system to
remain triggered (on) even when attached to a power source such as a turn signal feed that pulses off and on.
Camera’s 2 and 3 will remain active for approximately 2.5 seconds after the voltage has been removed from the corresponding trigger.
Momentary Rear Camera Override
While triggered, the rear camera can be momentarily overridden by pressing and holding down the CH 4 or CH 5 buttons
on the remote. While holding down the button, the camera image will change to the corresponding camera position and
will return to the rear camera when the button is released. The momentary override can only be done with camera
positions 4 and 5 and will only override camera position 1 while it is triggered.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Preventative Maintenance
The most eff ective 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, 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.

Status LED’s and Fuses (CVS100 or CVS102)
The CVS100 is equipped with two status LED’s relating to power. One (right) for system power and the other (left) for the
1 Amp radar alarm output. These fuses are located under the hinged weatherproof cover on the top of the controller.
The Power LED will be illuminated green when power (+11 to +32 VDC) is applied to the controller. The Power LED will
not be illuminated (off ) if the 2 Amp power fuse is open or “blown”.
The Radar Alarm Output LED will be illuminated green when power is applied to the controller and off in the event the fuse
is blown. There is also a spare 2 Amp fuse.
INTEC strongly recommends using only properly rated fuses at all times.
In addition the CVS100 is equipped with internal auto reset fuses for camera and display power. These fuses are
designed to open in the event of a short in the camera, display, remote or associated cabling if the external fuse fails to
blow. The internal fuses will reset once the short has been removed and system power has been cycled. Disconnecting
and reconnecting the system power cord or turning the key switch off for 10 seconds and then back on again should be
suffi cient to cycle the power.

Status LED’s and Fuses (CVS500)
The CVS500 is equipped with three status LED’s relating to power. One for system power and the other two for the 1 Amp
radar alarm outputs. These fuses are located under the hinged weatherproof cover on the top of the controller.
The Power LED will be illuminated green when power (+11 to +32 VDC) is applied to the controller. The Power LED will
not be illuminated (off ) if the 5 Amp power fuse is open or “blown”.
The 2 Amp Radar Alarm Output LED’s will be illuminated when power is applied to the controller and off in the event the
fuses are blown. There is also a spare 5 amp and a spare 2 Amp fuse.
INTEC strongly recommends using only properly rated fuses at all times.
In addition the CVS500 is equipped with internal auto reset fuses for camera and display power. These fuses are
designed to open in the event of a short in the camera, display, remote or associated cabling if the external fuse fails to
blow. If this happens the POWER LED will turn red. The internal fuses will reset once the short has been removed and
system power has been cycled. Disconnecting and reconnecting the system power cord or turning the key switch off for
10 seconds and then back on again should be suffi cient to cycle the power.
