About the driving support functions
z
The driving support functions are intended
to support the driver's driving, not to prevent
accidents. In addition, the system does not warn
against all dangers.
z
When driving, respect traffic rules, pay attention to
the distance between yourself and the vehicle in
front, the surroundings and the driving environment,
brake as necessary, and in general make an effort
to drive safely. Furthermore, we do not guarantee
perfect operation, even when the camera is used
properly as described in this manual. Please note
that Kenwood will accept no responsibility for any
damages incurred thereby.
z
The lane departure warning is not linked to the turn
signals, so because of the camera's specifications,
the warning will be sounded when changing
lanes as well.
z
The driving support functions may not work properly
in the cases below.
-
In places where the positioning satellite
signals cannot be received properly, such as
in tunnels, amid tall buildings, etc.
-
When the lane lines cannot be identied
properly due to poor pavement conditions,
reections due to rainwater, etc.
-
When the vehicle in front cannot be identied
as a vehicle due to its shape, color, the light
conditions, etc.
-
Changes due to climatic conditions (rain, snow,
thick fog, etc.), time period (morning, evening,
night, etc.), backlighting, trac conditions
(trac jams, pedestrians), etc.
z
If objects are placed on the dashboard, they may
reflect in the windshield and cause the camera
to not operate properly. Do not place objects on
the dashboard.
About the monitor screen
z
Do not subject the screen section to strong shocks.
Doing so could damage it.
z
Do not let direct sunlight shine on the screen. Leaving
the screen with direct sunlight shining on it for long
periods of time will increase the temperature and
could damage the screen.
z
Extremely high or low temperatures could cause
the display to operate slowly or darken, or result
in residual images. This is due to the properties
of liquid crystal displays and is not a malfunction.
Normal operation will return once the temperature
in the car returns to normal.
z
There may be small dots on the screen. This is a
phenomenon typical of liquid crystal displays and
is not a malfunction.
z
Due to the properties of liquid crystal displays, the
display may be hard to see depending on the angle
at which it is viewed, but this is not a malfunction.
About positioning satellite (GPS)
reception
z
When the camera's power is turned on, satellite
positioning starts. Depending on the satellite
positioning conditions, it could take about 5 minutes
for positioning to be completed.
z
Satellite signals cannot pass through solid objects
(other than glass). Positioning is not possible in
tunnels or between buildings. Signal reception may
be influenced by such conditions as poor weather
or a concentration of obstacles overhead (for
example trees, tunnels, bridges, high-rise buildings,
etc.). The speed, position information, etc., will not
be displayed properly if satellite signals cannot be
properly received.
z
The positioning data is for reference purposes only.

CRC utility
COPYRIGHT (C) 1986 Gary S. Brown. You may use
this program, or code or tables extracted from it, as
desired without restriction.
First, the polynomial itself and its table of feedback
terms. The polynomial is X^32+X^26+X^23+
X^22+X^16+X^12+X^11+X^10+X^8+X^7+
X^5+X^4+X^2+X^1+X^0
Note that we take it “backwards” and put the
highest-order term in the lowest-order bit. The
X^32 term is “implied”; the LSB is the X^31 term,
etc. The X^0 term (usually shown as “+1”) results in
the MSB being 1.
Note that the usual hardware shift register implementation, which is what we're using (we're merely
optimizing it by doing eight-bit chunks at a time)
shifts bits into the lowest-order term. In our imple
mentation, that means shifting towards the right.
Why do we do it this way? Because the calculated
CRC must be transmitted in order from highest-order
term to lowest-order term. UARTs transmit characters
in order from LSB to MSB. By storing the CRC this way
we hand it to the UART in the order low-byte to highbyte; the UART sends each low-bit to high-bit; and
the result is transmission bit by bit from highest- to
-
-
-
lowest-order term without requiring any bit shuffling
on our part. Reception works similarly.
The feedback terms table consists of 256, 32-bit
entries. Notes
The table can be generated at runtime if desired;
code to do so is shown later. It might not be obvious, but the feedback terms simply represent the
results of eight shift/xor operations for all combinations of data and CRC register values.
The values must be right-shifted by eight bits by
the “updcrc logic”; the shift must be unsigned
(bring in zeroes). On some hardware you could
probably optimize the shift in assembler by using
byte-swap instructions polynomial $edb88320
