AIMING THE IR CAMERA The aiming adjusters on the IR camera bracket allow the forward field of view (FOV) of the IR camera to be adjusted horizontally and vertically. The adjustment screw head(s) will accommodate an E8 external Torx® or a T15 internal Torx®. Combiner Image When the IR camera is mounted, adjust the horizontal and vertical aiming adjusters to align the IR camera FOV with the display.
VERTICAL AIMING AND ADJUSTING The virtual image should be aligned vertically so that the horizon appears in the lower one-half to one-third of the combiner. Keeping the image at this adjustment should provide a view of the road when the vehicle is driven up and down hills. Combiner Image Horizon The vertical aiming adjusters can accommodate approximately ±4 degrees of movement. If the IR camera needs more than 4 degrees of vertical movement the IR camera bracket will need to be adjusted.
