1 3950 NW 120 th Ave, Coral Springs, FL TEL FAX RGBv2 NTV-KIT885 Overview The RGBv2 adds an aftermarket backup camera to the factory navigation screen in select RGBbased navigation-equipped vehicles. A secondary video input is included on the RGB module and can be viewed at any time by supplying power to an input wire (optional). NOTE: If you purchased a vehicle-specific harness along with this RGB, start with the instruction page that came with the harness.

If you purchased a vehicle-specific RGB harness, skip this page and proceed with RGBv2 Power Connections (page 6). If you re using the RGBv2 in a Lexus vehicle, begin with page 5.

4 If you purchased a vehicle-specific RGB harness, skip this page and proceed with RGBv2 Power Connections (page 6). If you re using the RGBv2 in a Lexus vehicle, begin with page 5. For all other installations, begin here. Universal RGBv2 Installation (includes BMW7) 1. If this vehicle has a navigation unit separate from the radio, connect this interface there. If this vehicle has no navigation unit (or NAV is built-in to the radio), connect this interface at the screen. 2. Gain access behind the screen/navigation unit and disconnect all connected harnesses before cutting any wires. 3. Examine the wires available from the provided RGB Video Harness. These wires are used for separating the red, green, blue and SYNC signals (like you would with a relay). 4. Find the RGBS wires connecting the NAV drive (or radio stack) to the screen. Make sure you have the correct harness by disconnecting the plug while the radio is in the NAVIGATION mode: the image should disappear immediately. The RGBS wires will typically be surrounded by sheathing to block interference. 5. Cut the Red, Green, Blue and Sync SIGNAL wires in half, one at a time. The colors of these wires are rarely red for red, green for green etc. The best way to do this: a. Strip sheathing back and gain access to the wires (gain extra slack) b. Make sure nothing is shorted c. Turn the car on and put the radio in NAV mode (if available) d. Cut each wire you suspect to be Red sig, Green sig, Blue sig and SYNC sig one at a time, and with each cut you should lose the corresponding signal color on the NAV screen. e. Cut the SYNC wire. This will make the image stutter and/or scroll lines either horizontally or vertically. NOTE: some BMW vehicles require that the SYNC wire stay connected for these vehicles, do not connect either SYNC wire (from RGB). f. Do not cut the RGB ground in half. Connect the ground wires together from the RGB Video harness and splice into the RGB ground. See diagram on next page. 6. Connect each wire from the RGB Video Harness to the NAV/Radio side and Screen side of each signal (red, green, blue, SYNC). Connect the RGB ground wires together and splice them to the RGB ground (sometimes the sheathing itself). See (universal) diagram for visual aid. 7. Proceed to page 6 to complete wiring to the Power Connection Harness. 4 P a g e

From the provided RGB Video Harness and refer to the chart below for your specific vehicle RGBS pin outs.

5 This page is for LEXUS installations ONLY. Proceed to page 6 for power connections on all other RGBv2 installations. Lexus Installation (only) 1. Locate the factory navigation drive. These can usually be found in the trunk, glove compartment or under the passenger seat. Disconnect all connected harnesses before cutting any wires. 2. From the provided RGB Video Harness and refer to the chart below for your specific vehicle RGBS pin outs. (If your vehicle is not listed, contact NAV-TV tech support at for vehicle specific diagrams) 3. Cut the Red, Green, Blue and Sync wires in half (one at a time). Refer to the diagram on page 3 and make connections. Note: RGB Ground should not be cut. Splice the ground leads to the RGB ground (or other ground).

RGBv2 Power Connections (ALL) 1. From the provided RGB Power Harness, connect the black wire to chassis ground (-) and the red wire to an ACC 12v (+) source (cigarette lighter, etc).

Any time this wire receives 12v (+), the video signal provided to VIDEO 1 will be displayed on the media screen (while in NAV mode from the radio). 3.

6 RGBv2 Power Connections (ALL) 1. From the provided RGB Power Harness, connect the black wire to chassis ground (-) and the red wire to an ACC 12v (+) source (cigarette lighter, etc). NOTE: VW vehicles only: Use VIDEO 2 for camera signal and connect white/blue with red ACC wire to an ACC 12v (+) source (VW is signal sensing). 2. Connect the white/red wire (INPUT 1) to a 12v (+) reverse wire. Any time this wire receives 12v (+), the video signal provided to VIDEO 1 will be displayed on the media screen (while in NAV mode from the radio). 3. Optional: If adding a secondary AUX Video source to this vehicle, connect the video signal RCA to the VIDEO 2 port on the Power Harness. This source can be viewed at any time when the white/blue (INPUT 2) wire receives 12v (+). NOTE: VW not supported for additional AUX video input. RGBv2 Remote Control / Brightness Setting The RGBv2 uses a (provided) remote for the following optional adjustments: o Arrow keys adjust VIDEO 1 or 2 image LEFT, RIGHT, UP & DOWN (OEM pass through image is not adjustable) o Zoom/Page arrows adjust brightness o Pressing MENU>MAP>BACK (in order) will default all settings. To adjust brightness of VIDEO 1 or 2 image, use the buttons on the RGB side of the module and adjust to suit. NOTE: when completing install, mount the RGBv2 module so that the buttons are not being pressed. 6 P a g e

8 General Notes In some vehicles (typically Lexus), reverse camera/aux video will only display while in NAV MODE For vehicles with no navigation, the installation must happen at the screen. For cars with navigation, installation must happen at the navigation unit (trunk, under pass seat etc.) Some BMW vehicles require that the SYNC wire stay connected for these vehicles, do not connect either SYNC wire (from RGB). Aston Martin and Volvo vehicles require inverting the sync jumper: 1. Remove all plugs, then remove (4x) screws on the back side of the module 2. Remove RGB circuit board from plastic case 3. Examine board for SYNC jumper resting on 2 pins 4. Remove jumper 2-PIN header and discard as shown below. 5. Reinstall circuit board back into RGBv2 case. Test for proper operation.

9 RGBv2 Operation After all connections are properly made: When the vehicle is placed into reverse (white/red wire on the interface receives 12v +), the navigation screen will switch to Video 1 source (reverse camera). In any other gear (but reverse) toggling the white/blue wire (12v (+) to the white/blue wire) will switch the factory navigation screen to Video 2 source*. 9 P a g e
