SIDE MONITOR SYSTEM SYSTEM DESCRIPTION


  1. GENERAL


    1. This system has a side television camera assembly built in the outer rear view mirror assembly (passenger side) to display the passenger side view of the vehicle on the multi-display assembly.

    2. This system consists of the following components: steering pad switch assembly (side monitor main switch) and combination meter assembly.


      1. Side television camera assembly

      2. Parking assist ECU

      3. Multi-display assembly

      4. Power management control ECU

      5. Main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU)

      6. Spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly

      7. Steering pad switch assembly (side monitor main switch)

      8. Combination meter assembly

    3. This system is equipped with a self-diagnosis system, which is operated on a designated window that appears on the display panel, just as in the navigation system.

  2. FUNCTION OF COMPONENTS


    1. The parking assist ECU controls the system by using information from the following components.

      Item Function
      Side Television Camera Assembly

      • Built in the outer rear view mirror assembly (passenger side) to the transmit the passenger side view of the vehicle to the parking assist ECU.

      • Has a color video camera that uses a Charge Coupled Device (CCD) and a wide-angle lens.
      Parking Assist ECU

      • Transmits video signals, which contain a composite consisting of the passenger side view of the vehicle taken with the television camera, to the multi-display.

      • Performs overall control of the system by receiving signals from the sensors and multi-display.
      Multi-display Assembly Receives the video signals containing a composite of the passenger side view of the vehicle from the parking assist ECU, and displays them on the display panel.
      Power Management Control ECU Sends the shift position signal to the parking assist ECU through CAN communication.
      Main Body ECU (Multiplex Network Body ECU)

      • Transmits the destination signal to the parking assist ECU.

      • Transmits outer mirror switch signal to the parking assist ECU.
      Spiral with Sensor Cable Sub-assembly Transmits a steering angle sensor signal to the parking assist ECU.
      Steering Pad Switch Transmits the side monitor main switch signal to the parking assist ECU.
      Combination Meter Assembly Transmits a vehicle speed signal to the parking assist ECU.

  3. OPERATION EXPLANATION


    1. The side monitor main switch ON signal is sent from the steering pad switch to the parking assist ECU.

      After receiving the side monitor main switch ON signal, the parking assist ECU switches the display signal for the multi-display from the navigation system to the side monitor system.

  4. DISPLAY CONDITIONS FOR SIDE MONITOR DISPLAY

      Screen display operation


      1. After the display conditions are met while the side monitor system is operating normally (when no DTCs are output), the side monitor display will be displayed when in both manual and automatic display mode.

        Tech Tips

        On the side monitor display, the display mode is as indicated below according to the operation of the automatic mode display button.

      *1 Shift lever in a position other than R *2 Shift lever in R
      *3 Navigation display etc. *4 Parking assist monitor display
      *5 Side monitor main switch on *6 Side monitor display

      1. The side monitor system changes the displayed image when the side monitor main switch is operated while the following conditions are met and either the power switch is on (IG) or the hybrid system is running (no DTCs output).

        Automatic mode display button Multi Display Screen Shift Lever Position Vehicle Speed

        Screen

        (changes due to side monitor main switch operation)
        OFF Navigation display etc. Other than R 12 km/h (7.5 mph) or less Navigation display etc. → Side monitor display
        OFF Parking assist monitor display R 12 km/h (7.5 mph) or less Side monitor main switch on → Side monitor display

        Tech Tips

        *1: In this case, the side monitor display is in path line deletion mode.

    3. Display conditions for automatic display mode


      1. In automatic display mode, the side monitor system automatically changes the displayed image depending on the vehicle conditions while the following conditions are met and the system is operating normally (no DTCs output).

        Vehicle Condition Multi-display Screen Shift Position Vehicle Speed Screen
        Stopped → Driving Navigation display etc. Except in P or R 12 km/h (7.5 mph) or less Navigation display etc. → Side monitor display
        Driving → Stopped Navigation display etc. Except in R 10 km/h (6.2 mph) or less Navigation display etc. → Side monitor display

        • *1: Screen changes and screen transition conditions after the screen is automatically changed are the same as those for manual display mode (shift lever in a position other than R).

    *3 Path line deletion mode *4 Display range button (for forward view)
    *5 Display range button (for overall side view) *6 Line mode button

    1. The side monitor system switches display modes when the side monitor display is displayed and the line mode button is operated. In each display mode, when the display range button (for forward view) is operated, the forward view is displayed on the screen.

      Tech Tips


      • When the forward view is displayed, the display mode cannot be switched on the side monitor display.

      • When the side monitor display is displayed with the shift lever in R, the side monitor display will change to path line deletion mode.
