Information 

The surface of the calibration board must be clean and free of objects.

  1. Align the linear laser -5-  .
    1. 1.1. Position the distance measuring unit -6-  at the right stop bracket -3-  of the calibration board and measure the distance -X1-  to the right reflector -1-  . The distance must be approx. 1, 00 mm.
    2. 1.2. Position the distance measuring unit -6-  at the left stop bracket -4-  of the calibration board and measure the distance -X2-  to the left reflector -2-  . The distance must be approx. 1, 00 mm.
    3. 1.3. The difference between distance -X1-  and distance -X2-  can be max. 1 mm.
  2. PIWIS Tester II 9818  must be connected to the vehicle before starting PIWIS Tester II 9818  . Switch on ignition.
  3. Start the diagnostic application and select the required vehicle type.
  4. Select Reversing camera  control unit in the overview  .
  5. Maintenance/repairs  must then be selected.
  6. Select Calibrate reversing camera  and press [F12] to continue.
  7. In the Code control unit  phase display, press [F12] to continue.
  8. Wait until the Code control unit  phase has finished and then press [F12] to continue.
