Introduction

The GRAFIX series Instrument Clusters from Dakota Digital come standard from the factory with an external SD (standard
definition) video input port. This port allows the user to source video from a backup camera (such as the CAM-1000), and
display that video directly on the Instrument Cluster's display. Until the GRAFIX, this feature could only be found on
newer mass-produced production vehicles, vehicles with aftermarket infotainment systems, or vehicles with LCD monitors
mounted on the dash or in the rearview mirror.
Setup of the GRAFIX system to use the CAM-1000 is simple and straightforward, and as seen in the diagram(s) below the
wiring is as well - which you have come to expect from Dakota Digital. Using this guide, you will be able to select the
wiring method that best suits your application. Backup triggering to the GRAFIX Instrument Cluster is handled by a single
wire to a control box terminal pin, of which there are several configurable pins to choose from. The video itself is a single
coaxial cable (provided), that also includes a pair of built in generic control or power wires - to ease the installation
process, and maintain a clean professional look.
