For the safety, please check the followings prior to the installation and perform installation
according to the sequence.
Start the installation after parking the vehicle in a flat and bright place and having the key
out. Wipe and clean the glass (the wind shield) around Black Box installation position.
Please check Black Box’s power terminal and video out terminal before the installation.
If the installation is performed having Black Box’s lens part pointing upward, the device may
malfunction.
LUKAS Black Box enables the user to adjust the view angle to various directions of
up/down/left/right.
Since the view point does affect the video quality, the description is made with the
examples of the proper view angles.
The video display on the right is the video recorded at the same time and the same place
with different up/down view angle. The Black Box’s angle on the left is the example for
the description which varies depending on slope of the wind shield.
This is the video with 4:6 ratio as
recommended for the installation.
It can be verified that the video
maintains the proper brightness
and definition while recording the
front traffic signal when the vehicle
is stopped right at the stop line.

This is the problem happens when
the angle is pointed downward too
much. As it shows, the brightness
is not the problem. However, since
the traffic light is blocked, the
problem happens so that accurate
information is not available to
acquire.

In case of the installation with the
angle pointing upward too much, it
shows that the video becomes too
dark because of the sunshine from
the upper left direction.
As it shows the video’s brightness
changes depending on the angle.
The angle points to the end of the
hood(bonnet). (Impact Sensor Z= +0.15)
