-
Connect the included isolator to the yellow RCA pin coming from ACC-CM-ANLG.
-
Securely mount VG54-NA and ACC-CM-ANLG using provided fasteners, zip ties, and adhesive. Installation location and style will vary by vehicle depending on available space.
Note
Secure mounting of the VG is required for accelerometer based harsh event detection to function.

If the installation uses an RCA connection, connect isolator directly to third-party camera cable.
-
If the installation uses a GX12 connection or has an in-cab monitor, connect the isolator to the included Y-cable, GX12 connections as pictured below.
-
If installation includes multiple cameras and a multiplexer, connect all cameras to the multiplexer, then connect the isolator to
video outon the multiplexer. -
To complete the Camera Connector Setup, proceed to Enable Standard Camera Connector Functionality.
