Components for installing the DRVC-2110
Primary Camera Installation
Power Harness Installation (Power Point Harness)
Note: Using this installation method will forfeit the Dash Cameras ability to start a recording while the vehicle is powered off. Be sure to confirm that the powerpoint is only active while the vehicle is running or with the key ON to protect the vehicle’s battery from excessive discharge when not in use.
- Locate the included Vehicle Power Point Harness
- Plug the connector into the vehicle’s power point and begin running the harness towards either side of the vehicle, preferably in a location where the harness is hidden as much as possible.
- Continue routing the harness up to vehicles A pillar, take care not to tamper with any airbags along the way.
- Route the remainder of the harness to the rearview mirror area of the windshield.
Power Harness Installation (Direct Wire Harness)
To take advantage of the Dash Cameras full feature set, you will need to use the included Direct Wire Kit for power to the unit.
- First, Identify the following signals from the vehicle
- Yellow Wire: Constant 12V+
- Red Wire: Accessory 12V+
- Black Wire: Chassis Ground
- Make the required power and ground connections. Solder connection with heat shrink is always recommended for the highest quality connection
- Begin routing the direct wire harness from the connection area towards the nearest A pillar, depending on where the power source is located. Follow factory harnesses wherever possible.
- Continue routing the harness up the A pillar, taking care to route around or behind any airbags that might be in the pillar.
- Route the harness out of the top of the A pillar and across the headliner. Leave a small amount of slack hanging out of the headliner for the connection
Main Dash Camera Mounting
- First, confirm you have the proper orientation for mounting. The small mounting foot should be on the side of the unit that is towards the passenger side of the vehicle.
- Find a desirable location for the unit on the windshield that will block as little of the driver’s view as possible but has a clear line of sight for the camera to see everything in front of the vehicle.
- Once the ideal location has been identified, clean the mounting area with alcohol and a clean rag, remove the protective film from the adhesive tape, and apply firm and steady pressure on the mount against the glass.
- You can plug in your power cable connection to the unit at this time.
Secondary Camera Installation
Camera Mounting
Note: The secondary camera is intended ONLY for rearward facing and interior mounting applications. We do no recommend mounting this camera anywhere outside the vehicle and it cannot be oriented as a forward-facing camera
- Similar to the main camera, start first by confirming you have the correct orientation of the camera. The text should be right side up when the lens is facing out of the rear window.
- Clean the mounting area with a clean cloth and alcohol.
- Remove the plastic film from the foot mount of the camera and press the mount into place with firm pressure to ensure a good bond between the glass and the adhesive tape
Installing the Secondary Camera Chassis Harness
- First, connect your chassis harness to your Secondary Camera’s short pigtail.
- Begin running the harness to the headliner or nearest suitable trim piece.
- Continue routing the harness to the front of the vehicle where the main unit is located. Follow factory wiring paths wherever possible
- Once the harness has been run to the area of the headliner above the windshield, you can plug the auxiliary jack into the side of the primary camera
Mobile Application and Device Setup

- Start by opening your respective devices application store
- Search for “Kacam” in the search bar (It is free!) and begin the download.
