Image Display
The digital 360 degree view camera system is capable of generating several different views using the front, rear, LH side and RH side cameras, and the IPMA. All 4 cameras are powered and communicate to the IPMA over coaxial cables. The IPMA processes the video signals from the 4 cameras and generates the appropriate views that are displayed on the audio system display. The views that are displayed are determined by the transmission gear selector position.
The decklid and doors must be fully closed for correct operation of the 360 degree view camera system.
When the ignition is on and reverse (R) is selected, the rear camera views are shown on the audio system display. The Rear 360 + Normal view is shown first. Using the audio system display on-screen camera selection buttons when reverse (R) is selected, the driver can cycle through the following rear camera views:
| View name | Description |
|---|---|
| Rear 360 + Normal | Contains the normal rear camera view, shown next to a 360 degree camera view. |
| Rear Normal | Provides an image of what is directly behind the vehicle. |
| Rear Split View | Provides an extended wide angle image of what is behind the vehicle. |
| Offset View | The camera view is offset on the screen allowing access to other functions. |
| Corner View | Provides a smaller view in the corner allowing access to other functions. |
When the ignition is on and any gear except reverse (R) is selected, the front camera and 360 degree views are shown on the audio system display when the camera selection switch is pressed. The front images are available until the vehicle speed reaches 10 km/h (6 mph). The Front 360 + Normal view is shown first. Using the audio system display on-screen camera selection buttons, in any gear except reverse (R), allows the driver to cycle through the following front camera views:
| View name | Description |
|---|---|
| Front 360 + Normal | Contains the normal front camera view, shown next to a 360 degree camera view. |
| Front Normal | Provides an image of what is directly in front of the vehicle. |
| Front Split View | Provides an extended wide angle image of what is in front of the vehicle. |
| Offset View | The camera view is offset on the screen allowing access to other functions. |
| Corner View | Provides a smaller view in the corner allowing access to other functions. |
To enable the front and rear camera displays, the IPMA monitors the camera selection switch, gear position and vehicle speed messages. The PCM sends the gear position and vehicle speed messages to the IPMA. Switching the 360 degree camera views is done through the camera menu in the center stack display. The view request is sent from the APIM to the IPMA. Refer to the Owner Literature for more information.
All camera views are generated by the IPMA, using the video signals from one or more of the cameras. The video signals are sent from the cameras to the IPMA through coaxial cables. The IPMA processes the image(s) from the cameras and sends a single image with the desired view to the APIM. The IPMA creates the final video images seen at the display and applies video adjustments such as brightness and sharpness color.
