So it's installed and working. Still tweaking settings to my liking but so far it has been fairly straight forward. It did take me a while to figure out the i-Bus app was not already installed and changing navigation settings to use the i-Go maps was not clear but figured it out in the end. Things like sound volume when reversing took some time as well. The only thing I have to figure out is when it starts the i-Bus app needs to start for the DSP to work and wish I could have it do this in the background. It boots, switches to the i-Bus app and remains the active screen. I have to hit the home button to get back to where I want to start from.
I have it mounted but I have not snapped the frame on completely so it may look a little odd when you look at the image. I want to make sure I don't have to pull it back out for anything yet.
Both cameras are working fine, I powered my rear cam from the camera B+ wire on the Avant-4 harness that powers up from KL-R and KL-15 so it is powered the same as the USB HD front camera. Went in the app and watched some playbacks from my test drive. Front and rear videos look great.
Coded the DRL halos right away and also add comfort blink (3), IKE welcome message and cornering lights.
I also used all the various pigtail harnesses for the Avant-4 just because that was a good place to store them. If I didn't place them on the back of the unit, I would surely have a senior moment and forget where I put them. Proper wire management and plenty of room so it just made sense to me.
More to come...
PS. Not the best weekend in Mid-Ohio. Our championship car spun going into turn 1 at the start and needed a tow out from emergency vehicle and put us 2 laps down. No coming back from that but the second car won the Bronze Cup class so we salvaged the weekend...
