Technical description
Function description
The camera image is evaluated via the control unit in the camera. Objects moving in the same direction as the vehicle are detected and marked on the monitor with a movement arrow.The arrow moves with the detected object and serves as an optical signal. Optionally, an acoustic warning signal can be added.The system includes the M75LXAHD monitor, which is mounted on the right A-pillar and provides the driver with images of the situation next to the vehicle. The CAM1000 / BSC01 camera has the following features:
- CMOS camera with moving object detection function
- Evaluation of the signal edge when the object enters the active area of the image
- Defined active (C) and inactive (D) image area .
- Minimization of messages by exclusion of irrelevant objects (filtering by direction of movement)
- Optical signaling by dynamic arrow indicator
- Acoustic warning signal
- Speed-dependent activation via GPS receiver
- Automatic activation of the monitor

Note the following during installation:
Note; the detection range dependent on the position of the camera:– Operating mode A (red letter „A“ on screen) for camera positions with a mounting height from 2 m to 3 m (fig. 2 to fig.3):Visible area: 37 m x 6 m, 165° FOV (field of view)Active area: 8 m x 4 mOpen cable loop– Operating mode B (red letter „B“ on screen) for camera positions with a mounting height from 3 m to 4 m (fig. 7 to fig.5):Visible area: 19 m x 8 m, 140° FOV (field of view)Active area: 8 m x 4 mClosed cable loopUse the base if the box body blocks the view to the detection zone (fig.8).
Supplement to fig.10
- The system only fulfills the conditions if the monitor is mounted in the area of the right A-pillar (30° to the viewing axis straight ahead).
Connecting the CAM1000 / BSC01
See fig.11
Observe the following:
- As far as possible, use original ducts for laying the cables, or other suitable options such as paneling edges, ventilation grilles or dummy plugs. If no openings are available, you must drill holes for the respective cables. Check beforehand that there is sufficient space on the other side for the drill head to emerge.
- Wherever possible, lay cables inside the vehicle, as they are better protected there than outside.
- If you do need to lay a cable outside the vehicle, ensure that it is well fastened (use additional cable ties, insulating tape etc.).
- To prevent damage to the cables when laying them, ensure that they are always far enough away from hot or moving vehicle components (exhaust pipes, drive shafts, light systems, fans, heaters, etc.). • Attach the cables securely in the vehicles to prevent tripping hazards. This can be performed by using cable binders, insulating tape or gluing in place with adhesives.
- Protect every through-hole made in the bodywork against water penetration by suitable measures, e.g. by using a cable with a sealant and by spraying the cable and the cable sleeve with sealant.

NOTE
- In Germany and Austria, special requirements apply for the operation to fulfill the operating licence.
- CAM1000 / BSC01 may only be operated with the M75LXAHD monitor.
- It is important for the compliant operation of the system that it cannot be switched off manually. The CAM1000 / BSC01 must therefore be connected via camera input CAM3 of the M75LX AHD monitor. The corresponding blue control line switches the system on and off
The following connections must be implemented:
➤ Connect the control cable of the GPS receiver (blue) with the blue CAM3 control cable of the monitor. This line is used to switch the monitor on/off.✓ The system will automatically be activated and deactivated via the GPS signal at approx. 40 km/h.➤ Connect the control cable of the monitor and the camera for the reverse gear (green) with the vehicle‘s reverse gear signal.✓ The camera provides an image and object detection is still active, but the warning sound is deactivated.
Using the CAM1000 / BSC01
NOTEOn the initial start-up the GPS receiver must save the satellite position. This may take up to 5 minutes.
Detection range
The detection range of the CAM1000 / BSC01 is divided into two zones:
- Visible area: depending on mounting height in operating mode A or B
- Active area: 8 m x 4 m
NOTEThe view of the camera into the detection area must not be obscured by vehicle parts. Objects may not be detected.
The test indicator allows the camera to be correctly aligned with the front of the vehicle. The reference line (fig.12 1) shall be at least in alignment with the front of the vehicle. The active area (fig.12 2) is marked as a red area in the video for 6 seconds.
NOTEIn night mode with ambient lighting below 50 lux, the camera switches to black and white mode. This is necessary to optimize object detection even in poor lighting conditions.The CAM1000 / BSC01 is automatically activated when the ignition is switched on.As soon as an obstacle is in the active area, the dynamic arrow indicator (fig.12 3) appears in the display. If the audible signal is connected, an evenly repeating beep will sound.
Operation at day and night
The monitor M75LXAHD from the BSV71000 system offers adjustment possibilities to adapt the image to day and night operation. These settings must be made before connecting the blue line.➤ For more information, please refer to the manual of the monitor M75LXAHD.
