Rear Peripheral Camera -R246- CALIBRATING

Special Tools And Workshop Equipment Required 

• Calibration Tool:VAS6350 
• Peripheral Camera Calibration Device:VAS6350/6 
• Vehicle Diagnostic Tester

The Rear Peripheral Camera -R246- is installed in the rear lid handle button.

-- Set-up requirements. Refer to Calibration Requirements .

-- Install and align the Calibration Tool:VAS6350  with Peripheral Camera Calibration Device:VAS6350/6  . Refer to Calibration Tool .

-- Connect Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.

Setting Up the Calibration Device

Attaching the :VAS6350/1  :

-- Check the dimension of the holes.

-- Equip the :VAS6350/1  appropriately. Use spacer pieces.

-- To do this, secure three wheel bolt adapters in the hole circle to each :VAS6350/1  .

-- Place the paddle on both :VAS6350/1  and secure them using a clamping screw.

-- Place the :VAS6350/1  onto the wheel bolts on the rear wheels.

The :VAS6350/1  are positioned by the "O rings" in the adapters and held in place.

-- Adjust the paddle with aid of lock bolts so that they move freely just above the floor. Make sure that the paddle is easily accessible.

:VAS6350  with :VAS6350/6  Orientation

-- Position the :VAS6350  with the :VAS6350/6  -2- at a distance of between 400 mm and 600 mm (15.74 and 23.62 inches) -dimension B- in the rear of the vehicle in the center (in behind of the rear bumper trim).

-- Move the calibration field on the :VAS6350  into a horizontal position.

-- To do this, twist plastic feet under the calibration field of the :VAS6350  so that air bubble in level is located exactly in the center of the indicator -arrow-

-- Switch on the :VAS6350/3  -4- on the calibration field of the :VAS6350  and align the entire :VAS6350  with :VAS6350/6  so that the laser beam of the :VAS6350/3  hits the center of vehicle rear above the Audi rings.

-- Make sure the Audi rings are centered on the rear. Correct the laser beam accordingly.

Distance Measurement:

-- Switch on the :VAS6350/2  .

The Following Display Appears:

-- Press the measuring button briefly.

The laser turns on.

-- Make sure that laser beam from :VAS6350/2  -2- hits lower, enlarged part of paddle -1-.

If this is not the case, paddles must be corrected accordingly via clamping screws on the :VAS6350/1  .

-- Use one hand to secure the :VAS6350/2  in the bracket on the :VAS6350  while the laser beam is visible on the paddle.

-- Then press the measuring button for distance measurement briefly.

-- Repeat this measurement on the other side of the :VAS6350  in the same way for the rear wheel.

The distance value must be the same on both sides.

If values are not identical:

-- Align the :VAS6350  long enough so that both sides are identical.

Pay attention when aligning the calibration field of the :VAS6350  , that the :VAS6350/3  from the :VAS6350  strikes the center of the Audi rings and the indicator of the level remains centered. Adjust if necessary.

-- Make note of the distance dimension measured.

Dimension Measurement -h- :

-- Measure the height of the :VAS6350  -2- calibration field, dimension -h-, from the surface of the :VAS6350  -2- calibration field (not the aluminum frame) down to the floor. Measure the hole in the :VAS6350  -2- calibration field.
