Digital Ally, Inc |DVM-750 Installation Guide
CAUTIONS & NOTES
Please read and follow the instructions and precautions in this installation guide when installing
the DVM-750 system.
For assistance, a qualified installation technician or mechanic should be consulted.
Do not route wiring and cabling over sharp metal edges where they may become
damaged or cut.
To prevent electrical shorts or breakage in the wiring and cabling, do not allow wiring
and cabling to be pinched behind trim pieces, panels, etc.
Do not run wires or cables in areas where they become damaged by heat from the
engine or the exhaust system.
Do not install any in-car video system components or wiring in the deployment path of
the air bag(s).
Do not connect any Digital Ally wiring to a charge guard or battery saver system.
When installing the cables or making wire connections, it is recommended you allow for
service loops and leave a little ‘slack’ in the cable connections to allow for service loops
and to allow for movement of the mirror so the connections do not get pulled or
accidentally disconnected.
Avoid running cables parallel to other wiring and/or antenna coax of other systems that
may be installed in the vehicle and do not leave excessive cable above the headliner.
Doing so may cause Radio Frequency (RF) interference in the video or audio recordings
of the DVM system.
If installing the optional wireless transfer module or VuCommand MDT interface,
consult the WTM-555 installation instructions, and the VuCommand installation
instructions located on your product DVD.
DVM-750 Interface Box Backup Battery
This system is equipped with a Backup Battery that is located in the Interface Box (pictured on
page 16 of this manual). In case of vehicle power failure, the Backup Battery will maintain power
to your DVM-750 system for 30-90 minutes. If the Backup Battery does not have a high enough
charge at the time of installation, the DVM-750 system may not turn on correctly the first time. It
may be necessary to charge the Backup Battery.
**To charge the Backup Battery, install your DVM-750 system, but do not turn it on. Start
the vehicle and allow the vehicle to idle for 5-10 minutes.
