Monitor Control Keys
All ClearVue Series II monitors have five basic function keys:
Up, Down, Speaker, Source, and Mute (labeled below). The
Up and Down key are used to navigate menus. The Speaker
key turns on and off an output that can be used to control an
optional FM modulator (thus, in effect, turning on and off the
vehicle speakers). The Source button switches the monitor
input betweenAUX 1 andAUX 2. The Mute button mutes any
audio routed through the system - it has no effect on vehicle
sound system audio that is not routed though the monitor.
The CV Monitors have been designed to have extensive compat-
ibility with a variety of source equipment, audio interfaces and
vehicles. However, some issues will arise from time to time,
requiring the installer to take additional steps to ensure the
highest level of user satisfaction.
DVDAudio
Most DVD players produce relatively low levels of audio signals
when compared to other video sources. The low level audio can
create a higher than typical noise level on FM-Modulated radio
interfaces. To improve this situation, the installer may use an
audio Line Driver, such as AMP P/N BLD to increase the DVD
audio signal prior to introduction to the CV4026.

Video or Audio Noise
Source
If minor video or audio noise is produced in the system once
installed, the problem may be related to noise introduction from
ground loops or because of non-uniform ground points. In this
case, the installer should ensure that all system components are
grounded to a common point, well attached to the vehicle ground
system.
Additional filtering may be required on the power input side of the
source equipment. In this case, an automotive Power Noise Filter
may be used to improve performance.
The 10.4” ClearVue monitor also has two buttons that control
the domelights - one turns the domelights on, and the other
prevents the domelight from lighting when the door is opened.
Changing the Video Settings
The ClearVue monitor has adjustable
settings for Color, Contrast, Bright
ness, and Tint. To change these
***MENU***
settings, press the Up and Down
arrow keys on the monitor at the
same time, and hold for two sec-
onds. The menu will be displayed on
the screen until you press the two
keys for two seconds again.

Always avoid splicing into the power and ground wires at the rear
of the radio. The Power and ground points should be as near to the
battery as possible.
Soft Dimming Dome Lights
TINT
(32)
Some vehicles are equipped with Dome Lights, which feature a
slow, “Soft Dimming” function. Many of these systems are
incompatible with the CV1005 Lighting System. If the CV1005
system is wired to the Soft Dimming system, the lamps will blink
during the dimming cycle. In this case, the installer should
connect the CV1005 lamp circuit directly to a fused 12 volt supply.
To select the setting to be changed: Move the cursor up and
down the menu list using the Source button on the monitor.
To change value of the setting: Use the arrow buttons to
decrease and increase the setting. The range of values is
from zero to 63, with 32 as the default.

Wiring the System
Connecting the System
The CV 4026 module uses standard RCA connectors for A/V
(audio/video) inputs. It also has an extra set of RCA A/V
outputs, for connection to an optional second monitor. These
outputs carry the same signals that are routed to the CV II
monitor connected to the CV4026 with the yellow cable. This
type of arrangement is often referred to as a slave monitor,
since both monitors display the same image.
For instructions on the physical installation of the monitor,
please refer to the directions provided with the trim ring.
Wiring the CV4026 Power Supply Module
Properly fuse all electrical connections. If you have any doubts
about proper fusing, please consult an MECP-certified in-
staller.
The CV4026 module is intended to be installed out of sight
under a seat or behind a trim panel. Make sure that the
module is within the reach of the yellow cable - otherwise, you
won’t be able to connect the module to the monitor!

attached to the chassis of the vehicle, to a clean,

practice to ground all system components to the
same point. If you have any questions about what
constitutes a good grounding point, please consult an
MECP-certified installer.

Blue - Optional 12V(+) Switched Output. This wire
provides up to 500mA of 12V(+), and is controlled by
the Speaker button on the monitor. It is intended to
allow user control of an optional FM modulator. FM
modulators allow the vehicle sound system to play
back sound from other devices, such as VCR’s, DVD
players, and MP3 players. See your authorized
Rosen dealer for details.
The ClearVue Series II monitors have an infrared wireless
headphone transmitter built in. This automatically transmits
any audio signals routed into the CV4026 audio input RCA’s -
however, no headphones are included in the kit. These
optional headphones are available from your Rosen authorized
dealer.
NOTE: Never ground this wire - module failure will
result!
