Installation of M1N Main Unit

The installation position shall be determined with careful consideration given to safety, 

vibration resistance, heat dissipation, waterproofing, damp-proofing, dust-proofing, protection 

against damage and easy maintenance, and shall meet the following requirements:

1. Vibration resistance: The terminal shall be installed at the position with weak vibration in 

the vehicle, and should be kept away from the engine.

2. Heat dissipation: The terminal shall be kept away from on-board heat sources and be 

installed at a ventilated position for heat dissipation.

3. Waterproofing: During installation of the terminal, attention shall be paid to high 

temperature prevention and waterproofing.

4. Damp-proofing: The terminal shall be installed at a dry and ventilated place.

5. Dust-proofing: The terminal shall be installed at a place with less dust.

6. Electrical: The terminal shall be kept away from complex electromagnetic environment 

and a strong interference environment as far as possible.

7. The installation position of the main unit shall be flat. Keeping the main unit sidelong and 

on a slant shall be avoided as far as possible.

8. There shall be enough space to open and close the front panel (without affecting the 

removal and replacement of SIM card and SD card).

9. There shall have enough distance at the tail of the main unit to plug and unplug the 

aviation connector (without affecting the connection), and the tail harness must be wrapped 

firmly and neatly.

If the above conditions are met, tighten the screws to fix the main unit, as shown in the figure 

below

Power Supply Connection and Connection of Signal Cables


Power cable: Connect DC+ (Red Wire) to the vehicle’s constant power supply, ACC (Orange Wire) to the vehicle ignition power supply, and GND (Black Wire) to the vehicle ground wire.




Installation of GPS, 3G/4G and WiFi Antennas

Installation of GPS Antenna Requirements:

1. The equipment that may interfere with 3G/4G signals, such as original on-board GPS 

positioning module, shall be kept more than 15 cm away from the antenna.

2. Excess tail harness of the 3G/4G antenna shall be concealed in the A-pillar or the center 

console.

3. Tear off the 3M adhesive film on the 3G/4G antenna and stick the antenna under the A-pillar at 

the front passenger side





Installation of WiFi Antenna:

1. Tear off the 3M adhesive film on the bottom of the WiFi antenna to stick the antenna to one side 

of the center console of the vehicle

2. The antenna cannot be installed in a confined space, as this may affect signal reception.

3. Excess tail harness of the WiFi antenna shall be concealed in the A-pillar or the center 

console


Installation of Road Facing Camera

1. Must be installed in the middle of the front windshield.

2. If the wiper stops at the lower part of the front windshield, the installation position 

shall be at least 10 cm above the lower edge of the front windshield to avoid being covered 

by the windshield wiper at stop position

3. Generally, there are symmetrical air outlets on the dashboard near the front windshield. The 

centerline of the front windshield can be found based on the symmetry of the air outlets.

4. The centerline of the front windshield can be determined through the vehicle emblem, as 

shown in the figure below





Installation Steps

1. Clean the interior and exterior of the glass in the target installation area with alcohol cotton 

in the packaging (to ensure that no dirt will affect the angle of view of the camera 

lens), and ensure the glass in the wiping area is dry.

2. Tear off the 3M adhesive film on the camera lens, and then stick the camera 

horizontally and vertically on the front windshield.

A screenshot of a video game

Description automatically generated with low confidence

After logging in, click on Preview on the homepage to enter the preview interface, and then click on AI Calibration  on the lower left corner of the screen for calibration selection.




Enter the real-time preview interface and double-click the ADAS channel screen to enter the
mainstream, and then click "AI Calibration" at the lower left corner of the screen to enter the AI
calibration selection interface for ADAS calibration.

Select calibration channel. Since ADAS cameras are all installed in channel 1, select channel



1 here or select the channel that has the road facing camera. Next, click "Calibration" at the lower right corner of the screen to enable the calibration process.


Confirm that the ADAS is installed at a proper position of the front windshield and

within the working range of the wipers, and then click [Next]



In the manual calibration process of ADAS, measure the installation height of ADAS

(the height of the camera lens to the ground, accurate to cm/inch, measured with the same method

adopted in automatic calibration), and enter the value in the EasyCheck interface. Meanwhile, to ensure the accuracy of ADAS algorithm recognition, 3 other parameters also need to be entered in this interface:the left margin of the ADAS camera lens, and the width and the length of the vehicle head. The measurement methods of the three parameters are:

Left margin of the ADAS camera lens: the horizontal distance from the ADAS camera lens to the

outermost edge of the left tire (when viewed outside the vehicle and facing the left side of the vehicle head);

Width of the vehicle head: the distance between the outermost edges of the tires on both sides;

Length of the vehicle head: the horizontal distance from the ADAS camera lens to the license plate.

Refer to the figure below for the example of distance measurement




Enter the 4 parameter values measured in the EasyCheck interface, and click on Next.

Enter the interface shown below. In this interface, you can watch the ADAS calibration tutorial.

If you already know how to calibrate, click on Next.


Click on Next to enter the following interface and start to manually calibrate the ADAS camera lens.




Open the back cover of ADAS camera and adjust the angle of ADAS lens to make the 20m

calibration line in ADAS calibration screen coincide with the mark point at 20m on the

ground, and the 30m calibration line in ADAS calibration screen coincide with the mark

point at 30m on the ground.



After that, click on Next, select the source of speed according to the actual installation

situation, set the left and right turn signal parameters, and then click "Next". In the next

interface, check whether the left and right turn signals are valid according to the prompts.

After checking, click on Complete to exit the calibration interface.



Go back to the real-time preview interface of ADAS channel (double-click the ADAS

channel screen to enter the main stream), and check that there is no calibration line

superimposed on the screen at this time, which means that ADAS channel has returned to

normal mode at this time.

At this point, tighten the screws for adjusting the ADAS angle and the screws of the back cover

to complete the long-distance calibration.


Installation of Driver Facing Camera

For the driver facing camera, there are three different ways to install the camera on the camera:

  1. A-pillar side mounted CA29M 

  2. A-pillar side glass mounted CA29M 

  3. Countertop mounted CA29M



A-pillar side mounted CA29M

(Focal length: 3mm& 4mm)

A-pillar side glass mounted CA29M

(Focal length: 3mm& 4mm)

Countertop mounted CA29M

(Focal length: 4mm)






Generally, you can choose A-pillar side mounted CA29M or countertop-mounted CA29M 

according to the actual situation. However, since some vehicles have airbags on the A-pillar, there will 

be hidden dangers if the camera is fixed on the A-pillar.

In this case, the CA29M with glass mounting bracket can be chosen and fixed next to the A-pillar. 

Installation Steps & Requirements:


1. The 3 meter 10 pin cable, is to be connected to the 8 PIN Video Output Cable which goes to slot number 4 on the DVR, mentioned in the schematics section

2. Connect the Monitor to the cable to establish the connection between the DVR and the screen 

3. Mount the monitor screen on the dashboard using a Fan Shaped Bracket

4. When connection established you’ll be able to see the feed of all channels connected to the DVR
