The 360 degree view camera system provides several different camera views to visually aid the driver while maneuvering the vehicle at low speed.

The camera views are changed using the camera on-screen button and the available camera views are dependent upon the transmission gear selection.

Using the images from the front, rear, LH, and RH parking aid cameras, the IPMB generates the 360 degree camera views that are displayed on the FDIM.

The CHMSL camera displays the contents of the truck bed and visually aids the driver while hitching the vehicle to a fifth wheel or gooseneck trailer. The CHMSL camera provides a guideline to assist the driver in locating the center the vehicle.

The trailer camera displays the rear view image from the back of a trailer while reversing.

The CHMSL camera communicates with the IPMB through a LIN circuit. The front, rear, LH, and RH cameras communicate with the IPMB through a coaxial cable via LVDS.

The CHMSL and trailer camera video signals are analog. The front, rear, LH, and RH camera video signals are digital.
