About the Cameras
The standard Camera issued with the system is the 18IR
Camera which has a 120 degree viewing angle and is
rated IP68. This Camera comes equipped with 18 infrared
LEDs to provide night vision up to 12 meters. It is
mounted on a “U-Bracket” which allows the user to angle
the Camera up or down.
The Side Camera is typically featured in triple Camera
systems. This Camera comes equipped with 9 infrared
LEDs to provide night vision up to 8 meters. The
mounting bracket and protective cover is included with the
Camera.
For other Camera options and information, please visit
www.mobileawareness.com.
Installation: Monitor and Wiring Harness
Before installing the system, it is recommended to temporarily
connect all components and perform a system
function check. If the system does not operate
properly, see the troubleshooting section of this
manual. If further questions arise, please visit
www.mobileawareness.com or contact Mobile
Awareness directly.
The Monitor can be flush mounted in the dash
(with the included mount), with the “U-Bracket” and
thumb screws (see figure 4) or via the Dash Mount
Bracket (see figure 5). Make sure the mounting
location does not obscure the drivers viewing area.
Note: For other mounting options, please visit
www.mobileawareness.com

The VisionStat system includes a 22-pin wiring harness. This wiring harness will power
the entire system, including the Monitor and up to 4 Cameras. Once the Monitor is
mounted, align the Monitor’s 22-pin
connection with the 22-pin connection of
the wiring harness. Each connector will
have an arrow to assist with the
alignment.
Fig 7: 22-pin Wiring Harness
Once engaged, slowly rotate the metal ring to thread the two connectors together. This
should be done with caution so that the connectors seat and thread together properly.
You may need to continue pressing the connectors together while rotating the metal
ring to facilitate the assembly. Following these steps will ensure the connection has
been made correctly. Failing to do so may cause problems with power, audio and
video connections. Twisting the cable, or the connectors themselves, to tighten the
connection may result in breakage of the pins and their connections, rendering the
wiring harness defective.

Installation: Monitor and Wiring Harness (Continued)
Before applying power to the system; make any Camera and trigger wire connections.
The 22-pin wiring harness’ wiring connections can be seen in the chart below. The
RCA connectors can be used to connect a second Monitor to the system for secondary
viewing.
The trigger wires can be used to achieve hands free operation for the VisionStat
system. For example, wiring the BLUE Trigger Wire to your right turn signal will
automatically toggle the Monitor to Channel 2 once the BLUE Trigger Wire receives
+12VDC. Once power is removed from the trigger wire, in this case the turn signal
being turned off, the Monitor will revert to the previous channel being displayed.
The most common use of the trigger wires, along with the turn signals, is using the
BROWN Trigger Wire to toggle the Monitor to Channel 3 to view the rear back up
Camera while in reverse, typically wiring it to the reverse lights. Keep in mind, the
desired Camera must be connected to the corresponding color.

Installation: Cameras
Each Camera will have a 4-pin connection and be connected to the Monitor’s 22-pin
wiring harness via an extension cable. The extension cables come in lengths of 5M,
10M and 20M. The length of the cable used
should be determined by the length of the
vehicle, including any passageway or route
you take through the vehicle’s body to
ensure a safe and secure connection.
Select a location to mount the Camera(s)
that allows for unobstructed viewing of the
area under consideration. It is important to
position the Camera so there is adequate
visibility without creating unrealized blind
spots. To aid in this effort, have an assistant
hold the Camera in the desired mounting
location while temporarily powering the system. This
will help ensure that the desired viewing area is
visible prior to mounting the Camera(s).
Most commercial vehicles are exposed to vibration
and other harsh impacts. Install the Camera in a
location where it will be secure. Take the necessary
measures to reinforce and securely support the
Camera if it will be exposed to uncommon amounts of
stress and/or vibration. It is suggested that the
Camera be mounted as high as possible to prevent
blind spots that result from it being installed too low to
the ground. Cameras installed low to the ground also
expose the lens to more dirt, mud, exhaust gasses,
etc.
The VisionStat wired system uses a series of 4-pin connections to connect the Camera
to the Monitor’s wiring harness. It is important that these connections are aligned
properly, using the arrows printed on the outer shell. Once the connection is pushed
together, the user should tighten the fastener and pull the rubber sleeve over for added
protection and to prevent loose connections.
NOTE: If using a truck and trailer, or
other two vehicle configuration, the
Fig 11: Extension Cable Paths
Truck & Trailer Interconnect will need to be used. This interconnect system is available
in both 1 camera and 4 camera versions. You will need to use the interconnect with
enough connections to support all cameras on the trailer or rear vehicle.

Installation: Cameras (Continued)
If the Camera cable will run through the
vehicle body (see Figure 12), drill a 20mm
hole in order to pass the 4-pin connection
through. Once this connection is made, it may
be placed inside the vehicle body for
additional protection. The rubber grommet on
the Camera’s cable can be used to plug the
20mm hole. Seal the hole properly with
waterproofing compound, as well as
anywhere cables run through openings in the
vehicle body.
The Camera can be angled by loosening the
6 hex screws, 3 on each side, of the Camera.
Fig 12: Hex Screws on Side Camera
Once the desired angled is achieved,
retighten the 6 hex screws to secure the Camera.
Installation: Side Cameras
Once you have determined the most
effective mounting location, remove
the Frame Release Screws (2 each)
that hold the cover onto the Side
Camera Frame. Place the included
Rubber Insulating Pad in the
location where you plan to mount
the Camera and use it as a template
to mark and drill the (4 each)
mounting holes. Follow by drilling
the hole to pass the 4-pin Camera
cable connector through the vehicle.
Fig 13: Side Camera Mounting Bracket
Connect the included extension cable
(s) prior to mounting the Camera to
the Side Camera Frame. This will
allow you to thread the metal
connectors together, tighten them
securely and then slide the rubber
boot completely over the mated
connectors. This will assure a
watertight and trouble free connection.
When connecting to the Wiring
Harness, the left side Camera should
be connected to the WHITE Channel
One 4-pin Connector and the right
side Camera to the BLUE Channel
Two 4-pin Connector, via the included
extension cables.

If the viewing angle needs to be
adjusted, loosen the Camera Body
Nut and rotate the Camera Angle
Adjustment Rings until the proper
viewing position is achieved. Once
properly positioned, hand tighten
the Camera body nut securely.
Carefully place the side Camera
cover over the side Camera frame
so that the front lip of the cover
slides under the Camera lens, while
the back portion of the cover slides
under the Camera cover mounting
slot. Once the cover is properly
seated on the frame, where the co-
Fig 15: Side Camera Mounting Bracket
vers edges fit within the lip of the
rubber insulating pad, replace and
secure the (2 each) frame release screws that hold the cover onto the side Camera
frame.
Carefully place the VisionStat logo clip on the lower front area of the side Camera assembly by snapping the two (2) prongs into the open slots to the right and left of the
frame release screws.

Symptom Possible Causes and Solution
No reversing function Check that the correct corresponding color coded
trigger wire is connected properly. For example,
the rear Camera is typically connected to the
BROWN 4-pin connector, so the BROWN trigger
wire would need to be used to toggle the Monitor to
that channel, in this case, Channel 3.
Backing Safety Suggestions
A commercial truck has extremely limited visibility. A large area behind the truck is
invisible even with rear view mirrors properly adjusted. The larger the truck, the larger
the blind spot areas. The driver must become familiar with the trucks blind spot area(s)
so that precautions can be taken to avoid backing accidents. The best assurance to
avoid an accident is by paying close attention to your surroundings. In order to increase your chances of preventing a mishap, increase your level of awareness by considering the following:
(1) Stationary & Moving Objects: The driver sees Stationar y Object s i n t he r ear
view mirror before backing. However, as the truck backs, the objects may suddenly
disappear as the driver turns, or as these objects enter into the vehicles blind spot. No
matter how careful a driver may be by checking behind before backing, a moving ob-
ject such as a child, car or crewmember can move into the trucks blind spot unnoticed
by the driver. This is an extreme hazard; consider this whenever a truck is placed in
reverse.
(2) Never Backup without Concentrating: Backi ng i s ri sk y and requires the full
attention and skill of the driver. If a driver is unsure or does not know where crewmem-
bers are or where objects are behind the truck, do not back. STOP! Get out of the cab
and physically check the area.
(3) Walk the Vehicle before Backing: Walk around the vehic le to check the clearances and search for hidden obstacles before backing. Be aware of objects that ap-
pear above, in back and to the sides of the truck. Stop the vehicle and physically check
the area if in doubt of a safe clearance.
(4) Plan for Safety: Plan ahead t o circumvent backing situations whenever possible. Assign a helper to guide and signal in backing situations. Always keep the signal
person in view while backing to prevent hitting that person.
(5) Proceed Slowly: Always back slowly so that t he truck can be stopped immediately, if necessary. Slow backing will minimize damage if a backing accident occurs.
(6) Alert Pedestrians: Consider est ablishing the pr acti ce of honki ng your t ruck ’s
horn 2 times before backing. This signal will alert pedestrians, as well as crewmem-
bers to stay clear of your truck.
(7) Ultimate Responsibility: The driver of the vehicle has the f i nal responsibili ty
for safe backing. If you the driver are not sure whether the area behind the truck is
clear, stop the vehicle and get out to check.
