    G-20 CONSULT work support

    1. Select "CALIBRATING CAMERA IMAGE".
      NOTE:

      In random order, perform the operation for all cameras for which un-match display UNMATCH appears.

      • Front camera: "CALIBRATING CAMERA IMAGE (FRONT CAMERA)"
      • Passenger side camera: "CALIBRATING CAMERA IMAGE (PASS-SIDE CAMERA)"

    2. On each camera calibration screen, press "APPLY" button, and then press "OK" button.
      CAUTION:
      • Never perform any operation other than selecting "APPLY" button.
      • Never perform "INITIALIZE CAMERA IMAGE CALIBRATION".
    3. Display the around view monitor screen. Check that images are displayed normally without any difference between images for each camera.

    Is there a malfunction such as a difference between camera images?

    YES 

    Calibration end

    NO 

    GO TO STEP 1. 

  4. PERFORM SIMPLIFIED CONFIRMATION/ADJUSTMENT BY "FINE TUNING OF BIRDS-EYE VIEW"

    1. Put target line 1 beside each axle using packing tape, etc.
    2. Put target line 2 at a position approximately 30 cm (11.81 in) away from each side of the vehicle (the left and right). Check that the target line is a length equivalent to the vehicle length, plus an additional approximate length of 1.0 m (39.37 in) (in parallel with the vehicle as much as possible).

    3. G-20 CONSULT work support

      Select "FINE TUNING OF BIRDS-EYE VIEW".

    4. Select the left and right cameras on CONSULT screen. Perform the following calibration.
      • Check that target line 1 and marker are aligned normally on screen. If difference is detected, align marker using "+" and "-" of "AXIS X" and "AXIS Y" on CONSULT screen.
      • Check that target line 2 is aligned normally on screen without difference between images of each camera. If difference is detected, align images so that line 2 is displayed in a straight line using "+" and "-"of "AXIS X", "AXIS Y", and "ROTATE" on CONSULT screen.
        NOTE:

        Press "SELECT" button on CONSULT screen and select camera position for adjustment.

        CAUTION:
        • Never adjust the front camera and rear camera. Only adjust the side cameras LH/RH.
        • Perform adjustment operation slowly because approximately 1 second is required for changing image on screen.

    5. Adjust the left and right cameras. Check that difference of images on screen between target line 1 and marker, and between target lines 2 are solved. Press "APPLY".
      NOTE:
      • The setting can be initialized to factory default condition using "CALIBRATING CAMERA IMAGE" of work support.
      • The adjustment value on this mode is cancelled when "INITIALIZE CAMERA IMAGE CALIBRATION" is performed.

    Is the difference corrected?

    YES 

    • Select "OK" to end calibration.
      CAUTION:

      After selecting "OK", never perform any operation other than "BACK" on CONSULT.

    NO 

    GO TO STEP 5. 

  5. PERFORM "CALIBRATING CAMERA IMAGE"

    Preparation of target line

    1. Hang a string with a weight as shown in the figure, below. Put the points FM0, RM0 (mark) on the ground at the center of the vehicle front end and rear end using white packing tape or a pen.
    2. Route the vinyl string under the vehicle, and then pull and fix the vinyl string at a point approximately 1.0 m (39.37 in) at the front and rear of the vehicle through points FM0 and RM0 using packing tape.

      WHITE-4 Point RM0 (mark) WHITE-5 Packing tape (to fix the vinyl string) WHITE-6 Vinyl string
    3. Put points FM and RM (mark) 75 cm (29.53 in) from the points FM0 and RM0individually.
    4. Route the vinyl string through points FM and RM using a triangle scale, and then fix it at approximately 1.5 m (59.06 in) on both sides with packing tape.
    5. Put points FL, FR, RL, and RR (mark) at distance of a half the vehicle width, plus 30 cm (11.81 in) to the left and right from points FM and RM.

    6. Draw the lines of the points FL - RL and FR - RR with the vinyl string, and fix it with packing tape.
    7. Put a mark at the center of front axle. Use a triangle ruler to draw a line at the position 1 m (39.37 in) backward from the mark placed at the center of front axle so that the line becomes perpendicular to the line drawn between point FL-RL and point FR-RR and fix with packing tape.
    8. Put a mark at the center of rear axle. Use a triangle ruler to draw a line at the position 1 m backward from the mark placed at the center of front axle so that the line becomes perpendicular to the line drawn between point FL-RL and point FR-RR and fix with packing tape.
