Rear view camera

In the same way as the two bumper cameras, the rear view camera makes its signals available to the TRSVC control unit via an LVDS data line. The signals are forwarded to the video switch (VSW - installed depending on the variant) and subsequently to the Car Information Computer (CIC) over CVBS lines. The CIC transmits the image data via an LVDS data line to the central information display (CID). The image data are displayed on the CID.

• LIN bus
