Front Peripheral Camera -R243-, CALIBRATING

Special tools and workshop equipment required 

• Calibration ToolVAS6350
• Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6

The Front Peripheral Camera -R243- is installed in the bumper cover under the Audi rings.

-- Set-up requirements, refer to GENERAL INFORMATION .

-- Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6, Installing and Aligning, refer to Peripheral Camera Calibration Device VAS6350/6, INSTALLING AND ALIGNING .

-- Connect the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.

Setting up the Calibration Tool

Attach the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center MountingsVAS6350/1:

-- Check the dimension of the holes.

-- Install the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center MountingsVAS6350/1.

-- To do so, secure three Calibration Tool - Wheel Center MountingsVAS6350/1in the hole circle to each wheel pick-up.

-- Attach paddles to both Calibration Tool - Wheel Center MountingsVAS6350/1 and secure them with clamping screw.

-- Place the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center MountingsVAS6350/1 on the wheel bolt on the rear wheels.

The Calibration Tool - Wheel Center MountingsVAS6350/1 are positioned by the "O-rings" in the adapters and held in place.

-- Adjust paddle with aid of clamping screws so that they move freely just above the floor. Make sure the paddles move easily.

Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 alignment:

-- Position the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 between 400 mm and 600 mm in front of the vehicle in the center.

-- Move the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 in a horizontal position.

-- To do so, twist plastic feet under the plates under the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 so that air bubble in level is located exactly in the center of the indicator -arrow-.

-- Attach the Calibration Tool - Linear LaserVAS6350/3 -4- to the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 at the location provided.

-- Turn on the Calibration Tool - Linear Laser VAS6350/3 -4- and line up the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 so that the laser beam points at the front of the vehicle, in the center just above the Audi rings.

-- Make sure the Audi rings are exactly in the center. Adjust the laser beam as needed.

Distance measurement:

-- Turn on the Calibration Tool - Calibration Tool - Spacing LaserVAS6350/2.

-- Hold the Calibration Tool - Calibration Tool - Spacing LaserVAS6350/2 -2- flush in the bracket on one side of the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6. The Calibration Tool - Calibration Tool - Spacing LaserVAS6350/2 -2- must sit securely on the bracket.

-- Press the measuring button briefly.

The laser turns on.

-- Make sure that laser beam from Calibration Tool - Calibration Tool - Spacing LaserVAS6350/2 -2- hits lower, enlarged part of paddle -1-.

If this is not the case, then the paddle must be corrected accordingly via the screws on the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center MountingsVAS6350/1.

-- With one hand, firmly hold the Calibration Tool - Calibration Tool - Spacing LaserVAS6350/2 in the bracket on the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 while the laser beam is visible on the paddle.

-- Press the measuring button briefly for the distance measurement.

-- Repeat measuring procedure in the same manner for the other rear wheel on the other side of the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6.

The distance value must be the same on both sides.

If values are not identical:

-- Keep adjusting the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 until the values on both side are identical.

When aligning the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 make sure the Calibration Tool - Linear LaserVAS6350/3 from thePeripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 until it strikes the center of the Audi rings and the indicator of the level remains centered. If necessary, make further corrections.

-- Write down the measured distance dimension.

Dimension measurement -h- :

-- Measure the height of the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 -2-, dimension -h-, from the surface of the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 -2- (not of the aluminum frame) to the floor. Measure the hole in the Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 -2-.

Dimension -h- and the distance dimension must now be entered into the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester in "millimeters".

Performing calibration

The Vehicle Diagnostic Tester is attached.

-- Select Guided Fault Finding  .

-- Select "vehicle selection" from the menu for the corresponding vehicle data.

-- Using the GO TO  button, select the following menu points:

• Select Function/Component Selection
• Body
• Electrical Equipment
• 01 - On Board Diagnostic (OBD) capable systems
• 6C - Peripheral Camera Control Module/J928
• 6C - Peripheral Camera Control Module, functions
• 6C - Calibration, (Repair Group 91)

The Vehicle Diagnostic Tester continues with the calibrating procedure from here on.
