Manual Calibration

When the system failed to complete the auto calibration, it will lead to manual calibration.
(However, it is recommended to find the obstruction which caused the failure and remove it from the layout area. Then reattempt the auto-calibration process.)
Manual Calibration Process:

1. Use the numerical keys (0-7) on the remote to choose the critical spot which is NOT in the correct location.
2. Use the cursor (▲▼◄►) to move the critical spot to the correct location and check the zoom-in window to confirm.
3. Use “MENU” key to switch cameras and inner/outer critical spot views

The Correct Locations of each outer critical spot

The Correct Locations of each inner critical spot

7.1 Manual Calibration Flow

1. Use the numerical keys on the remote to choose the critical spot which is NOT in the correct location. (in this case #3)
2. Use the Remote cursor (▲▼◄►) to move the cursor to the correct location. (The Zoom-in window at the top helps with accuracy)
3. Once finished with the adjustments, Press the “MENU” key to switch to the inner 8 critical spots of the same camera and repeat the adjustment, if needed.
4. When step 3 is finished, the Remote the “MENU” key to switch to the next camera and repeat steps 1, 2, and 3.
5. When all four cameras are checked (Front -> Rear-> Left-> Right -> Front), Press “OK” to complete manual calibration setup. The system will reset and process the calibration.

Trigger Views

If the vehicle is driving forward without turn signals triggered, the VAVSMOD2 will give the driver a top view and Rear view

If the Left Turn Signal is triggered, the VAVSMOD2 will give the driver a top view and left-side view

If the Right Turn Signal is triggered, the VAVSMOD2 will give the driver a top view and a Right-side view

If the vehicle gear is set to Reverse, the VAVSMOD2 will give the driver a full-screen Rear view

Note: Reverse trigger has the top priority. Whenever the turn light and backward are both triggered, the VAVSMOD2 shows the backward view.
