Left Peripheral Camera -R244- /Right Peripheral Camera -R245-, CALIBRATING

Special tools and workshop equipment required 

• Calibration ToolVAS6350
• Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6
• Vehicle Diagnostic Tester

The Left Peripheral Camera -R244- /Right Peripheral Camera -R245- are installed inside the left and right exterior mirrors.

The following describes calibrating the Left Peripheral Camera -R244-. Calibrating the Right Peripheral Camera -R245- is identical.

-- Setup requirements. Refer to Calibration Tool VAS6350 WITH Peripheral Camera Calibration Device VAS6350/6, INSTALLING AND ALIGNING .

-- Install and align the Calibration ToolVAS6350 with Peripheral Camera Calibration Device VAS6350/6. Refer to Calibration Tool VAS6350 WITH Peripheral Camera Calibration Device VAS6350/6, INSTALLING AND ALIGNING .

-- Connect the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.

Setting up the calibration device

Calibration Tool - Wheel Center MountingsVAS6350/1 installing: 

-- Check the dimension of the holes.

-- Equip the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center MountingsVAS6350/1 appropriately. Use spacer pieces.

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

-- Place the paddle on both Calibration Tool - Wheel Center MountingsVAS6350/1 and secure them using a clamping screw.

-- Place the Wheel Center MountingVAS6350/1 onto the wheel bolts on the front wheels.

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

-- Adjust the paddle -2- with a clamping screw so that it moves freely and easily just over the Calibration ToolVAS6350 -4- calibration platform.

Installing the Calibration Tool - Linear LaserVAS6350/3: 

-- Install the Guide PinVAS6350/6-5 -2- all the way using the 3/8" fine toothed ratchet on the left rear wheel and install the Line Scan Laser MountVAS6350/6-6 together with the Left Post MountVAS6350/3 -1-.

-- Slide the Line Scan Laser MountVAS6350/6-6 so that the outer edge of the Guide PinVAS6350/6-5 is flush with the outer edge of the laser housing -arrow-. Tighten the clamping lever.

Calibration ToolVAS6350 with Peripheral Camera Calibration DeviceVAS6350/6 orientation 

-- Switch on the Calibration Tool - Linear LaserVAS6350/3 -3- and adjust the laser beam forward toward the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center MountingsVAS6350/1 -2- such that a line appears on the Calibration ToolVAS6350 -4- calibration field.

-- Adjust the Calibration ToolVAS6350 -4- calibration field such that the outer edge of the black line on the Calibration ToolVAS6350 -4- calibration field is exactly on the laser beam.

-- Adjust the Calibration ToolVAS6350 -4- calibration field relative to the outer edge of the black line -1- so that it lines up exactly with the free-hanging paddle on the Calibration Tool - Wheel Center MountingsVAS6350/1 -2-.

-- Bring the Calibration ToolVAS6350 with Night Vision Calibration ToolVAS6350/6 into a horizontal position.

-- To do so, twist plastic feet under the calibration field of the Calibration ToolVAS6350 so that air bubble in level is located exactly in the center of the indicator -arrow-

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

Performing calibration 

Vehicle Diagnostic Tester is attached.

-- Select the Diagnostic  mode and start the diagnostics.

-- Select the tab test plan  .

-- Select select individual tests  and choose the following sequence.

• Body
• Electrical Equipment
• 01 - OBD-capable systems
• 6C - peripheral camera control module | J928
• 6C - peripheral camera control module, functions
• 6C - Calibration, (Repair Group 91)

From here the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester advances the calibration procedure forward.
