Radar Interface Cable (Optional) – Purple/Black/Gray connector
The radar interface cable connects from the radar unit into the radar interface connector on the input
cable. Please refer to the specific installation instructions included with the radar interface cable.
GPS Antenna (Optional)
The GPS cable has a threaded antenna ferrule and should be attached to the GPS port on the back of the
DVR. The antenna end has a magnetic base and may be mounted to the exterior roof, trunk, on the
vehicle, or may be mounted to the dashboard of the car providing that sufficient view of the sky is
available.
Display and Front Combo Camera cables – HDMI/HDMI mini
Warning:
HDMI cables are very susceptible to damage and will not worked if kinked or pinched. Be very
careful when installing and working around these cables.
Typically the front combo camera cable and the display cable will be run in the same vicinity. Mark one
of the cables on both ends to distinguish it from the other. The standard (larger) HDMI connectors
connect to the back of the DVR. Typically, the cables are run along the top of the headliner, down the A-
pillar to wherever the DVR is mounted.
Note:
If the HDMI cables are reversed the DVR will not be able to power up via the front panel on/off
switch.
Front HD camera HDMI/HDMI mini
In some installations a separate front and rear camera will be used (the DVR needs 2 cameras to
function). A front HD camera can only be added to a DVR that has a REV 2 board. To see if the DVR has
a REV 2 board, check the serial number for a
DVR2
-XXXXXX. If it has a BDVR, EDVR, then it is not
compatible.
Rear analog camera HDMI/BNC
The rear analog camera uses an HDMI (standard) to BNC connection to the rear camera. A rear camera
can only be added to a DVR that has a REV 2 board or a Mezzanine card. If using a Mezzanine card, then
there will be a VGA cable instead of the HDMI cable to the rear camera. Use the mezzanine card for
installations that have more than 1 auxiliary analog camera.
