Installation & How-To Guides: Available at: http://www.lytx.com/resource-center/installation-how-to-guides
A) Mounting Options: There are alternate mounting options available for the VER. The Standard Windshield Mounting Bracket
positioned behind the rear view mirror (as described in this guide) is the most commonly used and typically provides the best
solution. However, the Extended (Bulkhead) Mounting Bracket and the RAM-Mount (Articulating) Bracket provide a wide variety of
mounting locations, particularly in larger vehicles or vehicles without a standard rear view mirror. Refer to the DriveCam Mounting
Guidelines (DRC 340) document for detailed information and mounting information.
B) Electrical Wiring Connectors: Due to the variety of preferred wiring methods (ring terminals, splice connectors, fuse taps, poke-n-
wrap), electrical connectors are not included in the hardware kit. Refer to the vehicle service manual for information about installation
and wiring of aftermarket devices. We highly recommend this installation be completed by a qualified automotive electrician.
C) Hibernation Mode: A feature of the VER which allows it to enter a low power state in order to conserve vehicle battery power. The
VER will “hibernate” if it does not sense an ignition for a certain amount of time. Hibernation settings are chosen by the client and
range from 15 minutes after ignition cut-off to 4, 8, 12, 18, 60 hours or never hibernate. All status lights will go dark during
hibernation. To “wake up” a VER from hibernation, switch on the vehicle ignition or press one of the buttons on the bottom of the
VER.
D) Infrared (IR) Illuminator: Lights the interior of the vehicle with infrared light (invisible to the eye), enabling the VER to record clearly
lit images in low light situations. This draws additional power from the vehicle, which is why it switches on and off with the vehicle
ignition. The brown wire on the power cable provides this switch and must be connected to an ignition-switched power source.
E) Serial Number: Each VER is labeled with a unique 8-digit serial number, used to identify the VER and the vehicle in which it is
installed. The serial number (SN:) is printed on a small label on the back or side, just above the bar code. Example: “SN: ER00092D”
F) Operating Specifications: The input voltage is 12V to 24V DC (9V min to 30V max). The operating temperature is -40 to 185 °F
(-40 to 85 °C). A full list of specifications is available from Lytx.
G) Other Installation Options: The DC3/DC3P Standard Installation covered in this guide is the most basic setup of the DC3/DC3P
Video Event Recorder, using the Standard Power Cable to connect the VER directly to vehicle power and ground. No other
components may be added to this installation. The DriveCam VER has other installation options, however, all of which connect
through a central 5-Port HUB. For these installations types, the Standard Power Cable is not used. Instead, a cable connects the
VER to the HUB and then a separate power cable connects the HUB to vehicle power and ground. All other components (Remote
Pushbutton, External GPS Antenna, Fuel Efficiency Display and the Universal Module (UM05)) plug into the 5-Port HUB.
