Calibration Tool WITH Peripheral Camera Calibration Device, INSTALLING AND ALIGNING

Special tools and workshop equipment required 

• Calibration Tool :VAS6350A 
• Peripheral Camera Calibration Device :VAS6350A/6 
• Calibration Tool - R8 Wheel Adapters:VAS6350/5  for rims with a large offset, for example the Audi RS 6
• Vehicle Diagnostic Tester

After performing service work on the vehicle, it may be necessary to calibrate the peripheral camera system. In detail, this is the case after:

• Replacing one or more cameras
• Replace Peripheral Camera Control Module -J928- (all cameras need to be calibrated)
• Repair work on components in which a camera is installed or that influence the component location of the camera
• After wheel alignments
• When adjusting the overlap range of the individual cameras

All cameras must be calibrated if the Peripheral Camera Control Module -J928- is replaced.

Calibration Requirements 

• The camera lens must be clean. Cleaning
• Check the camera images on the Front Information Display Control Head -J685-. Replace the camera if the images are unclear because the camera has been damaged. Check the fastener for the camera if the image is low.
• Make sure both exterior rearview mirrors are folded out.
• The vehicle must be standing on a firm and level surface.
• There must be enough clearance around the vehicle (at least 2 meters).
• If the vehicle has an air suspension, turn on "Auto" and drive the vehicle at "standard vehicle height" onto Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.
• The parking brake must be set.
• The steering wheel must be in the 0 position and the wheels must be straight.
• All doors and the rear lid must be closed.
• No one should be in the vehicle.
• The vehicle must not be loaded (curb weight).
• Connect the battery charger.
• Ignition switched on.
• The system is active and is displayed on the Front Information Display Control Head -J685-.
• Do not move the vehicle during the calibration process.

Calibrate the cameras in the following sequence: 

• Front Peripheral Camera -R243-
• Rear Peripheral Camera -R246-
• Left Peripheral Camera -R244-
• Right Peripheral Camera -R245-

The Calibration Tool :VAS6350A  consists of the following parts:

• Calibration field
• Calibration Tool - Wheel Center Mountings :VAS6350/1 
• Calibration Tool - Spacing Laser :VAS6350/2 
• Calibration Tool - Linear Laser :VAS6350/3 

The Night Vision Calibration Tool :VAS6350A/6  is comprised of the following components:

• Left Post With Plate :VAS6350A/6-1 
• Right Post With Plate :VAS6350A/6-2 
• Left Post Mount :VAS6350A/6-3 
• Right Post Mount :VAS6350A/6-4 
• Peripheral Camera Calibration Device - Guide Pin :VAS6350A/6-5 
• Line Laser Mount :VAS6350A/6-6 

Overview :VAS6350A  with :VAS6350A/6 

The :VAS6350A/6-1  and :VAS6350A/6-2  must be vertical.

-- Move the calibration field on the :VAS6350A  into a horizontal position.

-- To do so, twist plastic feet under the calibration field of the :VAS6350A  so that air bubble in level is located exactly in the center of the indicator -arrow-

-- Set the :VAS6350A/6-1  -1- and the :VAS6350A/6-2  -2- on both sides to the dimension -B- 77.5 of the scale on the :VAS6350A  .

-- Adjust the height of the :VAS6350A/6-1  -1- and :VAS6350A/6-2  -2- so that dimension -A- is 150 mm between the lower edge of the black measuring field (not of the aluminum frame!) and the surface of the :VAS6350A  calibration field.

The corners on the outside of the :VAS6350A  calibration field must always be flush with the outer edge of the black line on the measuring field when performing distance measuring.
