Overview: The Alpine HCE-C305R is designed to be an advanced single-camera backup assist system. The HCE-C305R System sends audible and visible signals, alerting and highlighting potential dangers while backing up. The Alpine HCE-C305 Active View Camera System consists of a rear view camera, active alert module, tone generator, and mode switch; as well as necessary cable and hardware for installation. Because the HCE-C305R has a standard composite video output (RCA), it can be used with any monitor with a composite video rear-camera input.

Active Alert Detection: This camera system detects objects from the camera image and warns drivers with a display and an alarm (using the included active alert module & tone generator). It uses a series of visual and audio alerts to inform you of upcoming objects within range of the system. Its sophisticated internal processing system automatically alerts you when it detects a potential threat, protecting you while you back up. When you reverse the vehicle, this function helps to detect objects that are moving from the right or the left and gives and audible warning. If multiple objects are detected, a warning is given for the most critical object. The critical object is selected in accordance with the arrival time to your vehicle. The system detects an object only when the your vehicle is in reverse. Only objects seen by the camera are detectable. Objects moving away from your vehicle are not detected.

Guidelines: Multi-color parking guidelines (Red/Yellow/Green) appear on your connected monitor's screen to assist you in backing up your vehicle. Each line represents a distance: Red=20", Yellow=39", Green=79". These distance guideline represent the distance to the road surface, not the object. There are also markers that represent the width of your vehicle.

Multi-View Camera: The multi-view camera gives you a wide 190° horizontal angle view of the area immediately behind your vehicle. It is designed to give you high visibility in daylight or at night. The clear, color images appear on the LCD screen of your in-dash multimedia/navigation head unit to help you see obstructions behind the vehicle as you back into a parking spot, or to keep an eye on cargo you may be towing. The image provided by the camera is a mirror image, so they appear the same in the monitor as what is seen in your rear-view mirror. Other features of the camera include:

• Weatherproof housing
• 1/4" color CMOS image sensor with a 4:3 aspect ratio
• 640 x 480 (300,000) effective pixels
• 190° horizontal viewing angle & 150° vertical viewing angle
• Illumination Range of 1.5 lx or more (50 IRE more)
• 0.82mm focal length
• F = 2.6 brightness

Multiple Views: This multi-view camera will show you the obstacles around the rear of the vehicle from different angles to assist you with parking, backing up, and to even connect a trailer. You can select from the following view modes using the included external mode switch.

• Rear View: Displays an image of the area directly behind the vehicle. Use this when backing into a parking space.
• Panorama View: Display a general perspective of what is behind the car. Use this when you want to view a wider than normal area behind the vehicle.
• Corner View: Displays a divided image left and right of center. Use this when checking the left and right area directly behind your vehicle
• Ground View: Displays an image from above down to the lower section for the vehicle. Use this when determining the vehicle's position in relation to the curb, a trailer hitch, etc..

Optional License Plate Mounting Kit (sold separately): The optional Alpine KTX-C10LP Rearview Camera License Plate Mounting Kit (500KTXC10L, sold separately) allows you to mount the multi-view camera on your vehicle's license plate.

The mounting bracket features a self-adhesive backing as well as comes supplied with mounting screws. The bracket allows you to angle the camera up or down. This small camera can be installed on the rear bumper, by the license plate of your SUV, truck, or car. The active alert module is designed to mount inside the vehicle and comes supplied with velcro strips and two-sided tape to mount the unit to a clean, flat surface of your vehicle.
