  1. Connect the rear Auxiliary Camera using the pre-fitted 26-foot (8-meter) cable included with the unit to establish a direct connection to the SafetyCam Plus.

IMPORTANT: Only one Auxiliary Camera can be connected to the SafetyCam Plus at a time. It can be either interior or exterior. In both cases, the cables are of fixed length and cannot be extended.
  1. Route the cable properly for safe and secure installation. For an interior rear Auxiliary Camera, ensure the cable runs inside the vehicle.
  2. This step is crucial for enabling the rear Auxiliary Camera’s functionality.

B. Ensure Secure Connections between Rear Auxiliary Camera and SafetyCam Plus:

  1. Verify that the connection between the rear Auxiliary Camera and SafetyCam Plus is firm and stable.
  2. A secure connection is essential for the system's reliability and performance.

C. Hardwire the SafetyCam Plus to the Vehicle’s Fuse Box:

The SafetyCam Plus power cable splits into three distinct wires, red, yellow, and black, on one end for hardwiring installations. Each wire serves a specific function to ensure proper power delivery and system operation:

  1. Red (Constant Power) – 12V:
    • Labeled B+ on the wire.
    • Connect to a constant 12V power source in the vehicle’s fuse box.
  2. Yellow (Ignition Power) – 12V/0V:
    • Labeled ACC on the wire.
    • Connect to a switched power source that is active only when the ignition is on.
  3. Black (Ground) – 0V:
    • Labeled GND on the wire.
    • Connect to a grounded metal bolt on the vehicle’s chassis.

Note: Wire colors may vary by kit. Always verify labels or consult the instruction manual before making any connections.

  1. Ensure all connections are secure.
  2. Confirm that the rear Auxiliary Camera is securely connected to the SafetyCam Plus using the pre-fitted cable.
  3. Verify that the SafetyCam Plus and the rear Auxiliary Camera are powered through hardwiring from the vehicle’s fuse box.

E. Tuck Away the Cables:

Once the camera powers on successfully:

  1. Neatly run the cable along the vehicle’s headliner (interior ceiling).
  2. Route the cable from the A-Pillar down to the fuse box.

Note: Do not mount the rear Auxiliary Camera until Step 4.

Step 3: Adjust the Rear Auxiliary Camera Viewing Angles:

  1. Ensure SafetyCam Association for Live Streaming
    • Before starting Live Streaming, make sure the main SafetyCam is properly associated with the vehicle. Without this association, the SafetyCam details will not appear on the Azuga platform (web or mobile), and Live Streaming for adjusting viewing angles will not be possible.
  2. Utilize the Azuga Fleet Mobile (AFM) App:
    • The Azuga Fleet Mobile (AFM) app is highly recommended for adjusting the rear Auxiliary Camera's viewing angles. Its user-friendly interface allows operators to quickly and effectively make the necessary adjustments while on the go.
  3. Live Streaming Feature
    • The Live Streaming feature is crucial for real-time monitoring and adjustments. Users can view the camera feed live, ensuring they can make precise angle alterations based on current conditions.

For detailed guidance on the association and viewing angle adjustments, refer to the links below.​

Step 4: Securely Mount the Rear Auxiliary Camera:

  1. Peel off the adhesive backing from the rear Auxiliary Camera and position it on the rear windshield at the desired location.
  2. Press the rear Auxiliary Camera firmly to ensure a secure bond and verify its alignment for optimal viewing.
  3. Allow the adhesive to set for a few minutes to keep the rear Auxiliary Camera stable and prevent any movement.

Step 5: Confirm Successful Installation:
