Audi A5 - Rear-View Camera System Control Unit

Rear-view camera system control unit
Introduction
A rear-view camera system is optional on the new
Audi A5. It can be ordered under the name "Audi
Parking System Advanced" together with the eight-
channel acoustic parking system with acoustic
warning and visual display. The MMI is required for
the "Audi Parking System Advanced" in order to dis-
play the rear-view camera image.
The system cannot be ordered in combination with
the MMI Basic or the third generation radio.
Apart from a few new features, the system is identi-
cal to the rear-view camera system introduced on
the Q7.
New features
• The height of the rear-view camera above ground is now entered directly via an adaption channel. This
information is required for calibrating the rear-view camera.
• Previously, in the so-called Park mode 2 ("longitudinal parking"), two blue fields and two blue lines were
projected onto the rear-view camera image. A dark-blue field and a dark-blue line were displayed for
reverse parking to the right, and the light blue field and the light blue line assisted reverse parking to the
left. The illustration shows a rear-view camera image on this side. In Park mode 2 on the Audi A5, the field
and the line which are not required are not shown. They are hidden as soon as the turn signal is activated.
Both fields and both line are visible up to that point. If the right turn signal is now activated, the light blue
field and the light blue line are hidden. The field and the line remain hidden even after the turn signal
returns to its initial position. The light blue field and the light blue line does not reappear until the turn sig-
nal is activated in the opposite direction.
• If the vehicle approaches an obstacle when reversing, a semitransparent OPS image is projected onto the
rear-view camera image once the vehicle is within a defined distance from the obstacle. The obstacle is
detected by the ultrasonic sensors of the acoustic parking system.
