Detailed Overview

No more backing into things with a Polaris reversing camera.

.

A Polaris reversing camera not only makes reversing a breeze but it ensures that you can see clearly behind your vehicle when reversing.

.

Believe it or not but 11% of accidents involve collision while reversing. Most of the time this is due to poor visibility and miscalculation (Budgetdirect.com.au, 2019). The more vehicles fitted with reversing cameras, the more chance that this figure will drop.

.

Not only that but a reverse camera could potentially save a life or prevent injury. Surprisingly, three accidents occur involving children in home driveways every week (A parent’s guide to kidsafe roads, 2016).

.

What kind of vehicles will the EV70DC reversing camera kit suit?

We recommend this particular kit for customers that want a rear vision camera on the rear of a motorhome or RV

How big is the screen in the EV70DC reversing camera kit?

The actual screen size is 7” and the monitor dimensions are: 18cm (W) x 12.1cm (H) x 2.41cm (D)

Sunshade depth: 4.5cm

How does the monitor mount?

The EV70DC Reversing camera kit comes with a dash mounting bracket. There is no drilling required to mount the monitor, it simply adheres with 3m double sided tape. We also sell an optional suction bracket if you prefer to stick it to your windscreen.

How many inputs does the EV70DC have?

The EV70DC reversing camera system has 3 camera inputs. If you require more than 3 camera inputs then it is possible when paired with suitable control boxes.

How much cable does this kit come with?

The EV70DC reversing camera kit comes with 7 metres of cable

What type of camera comes with the EV70DC reversing camera kit?

The EV70DC comes with a dual camera

What is the angle lens measurement on the cameras?

The dual camera has a 120 degree wide angle lens which is perfect for reversing. The other lens is 45 degrees which is great for long distance viewing

 

Where do you normally mount the monitor?

We will normally fit this monitor in the centre of the dash pointing towards the driver.

Where does the camera normally mount?

We normally mount the camera on a vertical surface in the middle towards the top of the motorhome. If you cannot mount it on a vertical surface then the bracket can be adjusted to mount on top of the motorhome looking down / out.

Can this monitor run all the time, not just in reverse?

Yes this is an option if you require. Just make sure whoever is installing it wires the power wires up to accessories power.

Can this monitor come on only when in reverse?

Yes, the power cable has trigger wires available. This is a great option if you want the 120° lens to come on only in reverse and view the 45° while driving along.

Why is a dual camera better for rear vision, can’t i just have a single camera on the back of my motorhome?

You can most definitely opt for a single camera on the back of your motorhome. The only issue with the single lens is that it is classed as a wide angle view.

The dual camera is used more for rear vision purposes. The main reason is because alot of wide angle lens cameras distort depth perception. You need a very narrow angle in order to view long distance (a fair distance down the road) and to judge how close vehicles are behind your vehicle.

This is where the 45 degree lens comes in handy. This type of angle lens is not ideal for reversing as it wont give you the wide angle however, it will give you more of a true perception of depth.

To give you an example lets say you are driving along and you see a car behind you in the monitor. Because of the wide angle lens, the car may look quite a distance away when in reality the car is actually quite close. However, with the 45 degree angle lens you should be able to make a better judgement because the perception of distance will be more accurate.

If you still wish to go for a cheaper alternative and only get the single camera lens then this is fine. You can still view the camera image while you are driving along, it may just take a little getting used to determining how close vehicles really are behind you.

Can I see this monitor in the sun?

The 7″ reversing camera kit has a sunshade built into the screen to limit the amount of glare that will obstruct the visibility of the screen. In saying this, there will be different times of the day that might affect the visibility of the screen that cannot be avoided. However, there are some visual settings such as, brightness, colour and contrast that can be adjusted to suit different lighting conditions.

Is this system 12 or 24 volt?

The EV70DC reversing camera will suit both 12 and 24 volt as a reducer is built into the monitor.

Can I install this system myself?

The system itself is not very complicated. However, we wouldn’t recommend attempting to install it into your motorhome, perhaps leave that to a professional.

It is completely up to you though and It’s just a matter of knowing where to run the cables, pulling your dash/trim apart and finding power. If you feel like this is something you would be confident in, then yes you could install itself. If not, please give us a call on 1300 555 514 and we can recommend an installer for you.

Does Polaris install?

Yes we certainly do, please give us a call on 1300 555 514 to get a quote or arrange a booking time.

How much does Polaris charge for installation?

We normally charge around $400.00 to install the EV70DC into a motorhome.

How much warranty comes with this kit?

You have 2 years warranty so you can be rest assured that you have chosen a product with the support to back it.

Do you really test all your products before they are dispatched?

Yes 100%. Even though we are a small team, we want to make sure that you get a working product at your doorstep.

Do you have a Zipmoney option?

We sure do. For more information on how zipmoney works please visit www.zipmoney.com.au

How much cable does this kit come with?

The 5″ Caravan Reversing Camera System comes with 4 lots of cables:

7 metre power cable – runs from the monitor to the rear of the tow vehicle.

.

2m car side WOZA cable – This cable plugs into the 7 metre cable and has a chrome socket on the other end. The chrome socket mounts on the back of the tow vehicle.

2.5m coil cable – A curly cord that sits between the tow vehicle and trailer

.

10m caravan WOZA cable – 10 metre cable that also has a chrome socket and runs through the trailer/caravan. The chrome socket mounts on the A frame.

What is a WOZA Kit and why do i need it?

A WOZA kit is just another name for a Suzi coil kit. Think of the WOZA kit as an extension cable but it is broken up into 3 pieces so it can be installed into a car and trailer.

.

.

We do not recommend normal extension cables to run from the car to the caravan as these cables are neither waterproof nor are they designed to be continuously unplugged.

What type of camera comes with the 5″ caravan reversing camera kit?

We normally supply our White Round Camera. This camera is perfect for mounting onto vertical surfaces.

.

.

What is the angle lens measurement on the camera?

The camera that is supplied with this kit (White Round IR Camera ) is 120 degree wide angle lens.

Where does the camera normally mount?

We normally mount the camera on a vertical surface in the middle towards the top of the caravan.

.

If you wish to know where we would normally mount the camera for your specific vehicle, please call us on 1300 555 514 and speak to one of our experienced staff members.

I cannot mount the camera on a vertical surface, what other cameras do you recommend?

That’s fine, if you cannot fit the white round camera on your trailer/caravan we would recommend either our black IR camera:

.

.

Or if you want to use it purely for reversing only, we would recommend our miniature camera to be fitted near the number plate:

.

Where do you normally mount the monitor?

We will normally fit this monitor on the right hand side of the dash near the driver if there is enough room. Otherwise it will go into the centre pointing towards the driver.

.

I don’t want anything on my dash, what are my other options?

No worries at all, if you don’t want anything on your dash, e have other options available:

Mirror mount reverse camera kit

.

In Dash options

.

.

Camera Integration kits

Give us a call on 1300 555 514 for the caravan option for the above alternatives.

I want a dash mount but i think 5″ is a little too small for me, do you have any larger monitors?

Yes we have a 6.2″ Caravan reverse camera kit available

.

Can this monitor run all the time, not just in reverse?

Yes this is an option if you require. Just make sure whoever is installing it wires the power wires up to accessories power.

Can i use the Caravan Reverse Camera kit as a rear vision system?

You can wire the system to work all the time so you can use it as a rear vision system. However the camera has a 120 degree wide angle which means that it isn’t ideal for long distance viewing or good depth perception.

.

That’s not to say that this camera cannot be used as a rear vision system.  A lot of our past customers have simply gotten used to judging the distance from experience.

.

To give you an example lets say you are driving along and you see a car behind you in the monitor. Because of the wide angle lens, the car may look quite a distance away when in reality the car is actually quite close. This is the type of distance that you will need to get used to in order to make a judgement as to roughly how far behind you the car is.

.

If you want more of a true rear vision camera, then we suggest installing our dual camera. It comes with a 120 degree angle lens which is ideal for reversing and a 45 degree angle lens for long distance viewing:

.

.

Can this monitor come on only when in reverse?

Yes, just make sure whoever is installing it wires the power up to the reversing lights.

Can I see this monitor in the sun?

The 5″ caravan reversing camera kit has a sunshade built into the screen to limit the amount of glare that will obstruct the visibility of the screen. In saying this, there will be different times of the day that might affect the visibility of the screen that cannot be avoided. However, there are some visual settings such as, brightness, colour and contrast that can be adjusted to suit different lighting conditions.

Can I get other cameras instead of the one that comes in the kit?

Yes, you can choose any of our cameras valued at $150.00 to come with this kit at no extra charge. When you order online, just write down the camera that you want in the notes section.

I already have a camera on the back of my caravan, can i just buy a monitor?

We get asked this question a lot and the simple answer is if you have a Polaris camera on the back of your caravan, then yes you will have no trouble buying a monitor and parts to get your caravan camera working.

.

However, if it isn’t a Polaris camera then you will need to ask your caravan manufacturer what brand of camera they supply? If we know what brand of camera it is, we can most likely help you blend the camera to work with our system.

.

Unfortunately we all do not use the same wiring configuration so it is not a simple plug and play option.

I am buying a caravan and i want a Polaris camera, can i ask them to install your system?

Yes certainly, most caravan manufacturers are more than happy to comply with your request. Some might charge a small fee to run the cabling and mount the camera but it is definitely worth it to get this part installed whilst your caravan is being built.

Is this system 12 or 24 volt?

The 5″ caravan reversing camera kit will suit both 12 and 24 volt as it has a reducer built into the monitor.

Can I install this system myself?

The system itself is not very complicated. However, we wouldn’t recommend attempting to install the caravan part, perhaps leave that to a professional.

.

It is completely up to you though and It’s just a matter of knowing where to run the cables, pulling your dash/trim apart and finding power. If you feel like this is something you would be confident in, then yes you could install itself. If not, please give us a call on 1300 555 514 and we can recommend an installer for you.

Where would you normally run the cabling in the caravan?

Our guys will usually run the wiring through cupboards at the back of the caravan, come out underneath and then run the cabling underneath the chassis.

Does Polaris install?

Yes we certainly do, please give us a call on 1300 555 514 to arrange a booking time.

How much does Polaris charge for installation?

For a caravan we normally charge $400.00 to install the 5″ caravan reversing camera kit.

How much warranty comes with this kit?

You have 2 years warranty so you can be rest assured that you have chosen a product with the support to back it.

• 170 degree mini camera – Great for mounting on the rear of most vehicles (4WD’s, utes, sedans etc.)
• 170 degree number plate camera (great for mounting on the rear of most vehicles where the number plate is centered)
• 120 degree large black infrared camera (great for mounting on trailers, motorhomes, caravans or on the front of a vehicle with a bullbar)
• 120 degree white round camera (great for mounting on caravans & motorhomes)
• Universal Forward Vision Camera (great for mounting on the front of a vehicle)

What is a Dual WOZA Kit and why do i need it?

A WOZA kit is just another name for a Suzi coil kit. Think of the dual WOZA kit as an extension cable but it is broken up into 3 pieces so it can be installed into a car and trailer.

The dual WOZA kit is designed so that you can have 2 cameras on your caravan or trailer. It allows you to only have one curly cord running between car and caravan.

We do not recommend normal extension cables to run from the car to the caravan as these cables are neither waterproof, nor are they designed to be continuously unplugged.

Where do you normally mount the monitor?

We will normally fit this monitor in the centre of the dash pointing towards the driver.

Can this monitor run all the time, not just in reverse?

Yes this is an option if you require. Just make sure your installer wires the power wires up to accessories power.

Why is a dual camera better for rear vision, can’t i just have a single camera on the back of my caravan?

You can most definitely opt for a single camera on the back of your Caravan. The only issue with the single lens is that it is classed as a wide angle view.

The dual camera is used more for rear vision purposes. The main reason is because alot of wide angle lens cameras distort depth perception. You need a very narrow angle in order to view long distance (a fair distance down the road) and to judge how close vehicles are behind your vehicle.

This is where the 45 degree lens comes in handy. This type of angle lens is not ideal for reversing as it wont give you the wide angle however, it will give you more of a true perception of depth.

To give you an example lets say you are driving along and you see a car behind you in the monitor. Because of the wide angle lens, the car may look quite a distance away when in reality the car is actually quite close. However, with the 45 degree angle lens you should be able to make a better judgement because the perception of distance will be more accurate.

If you still wish to go for a cheaper alternative and only get the single camera lens then this is fine. You can still view the camera image while you are driving along, it may just take a little getting used to determining how close vehicles really are behind you.

Click here for the single camera option

Can this monitor come on only when in reverse?

Yes, the power cable has trigger wires available.

Can I see this monitor in the sun?

The 7″ reversing camera kit has a sunshade built into the screen to limit the amount of glare that will obstruct the visibility of the screen. In saying this, there will be different times of the day that might affect the visibility of the screen that cannot be avoided. However, there are some visual settings such as, brightness, colour and contrast that can be adjusted to suit different lighting conditions.

Is this system 12 or 24 volt?

The EV05 reversing camera will suit both 12 and 24 volt as a reducer is built into the monitor.

 

I am buying a caravan and I want a Polaris camera, can I ask them to install your system?

Yes certainly, most caravan manufacturers are more than happy to comply with your request. Some might charge a small fee to run the cabling and mount the camera but it is definitely worth it to get this part installed while your caravan is being built.

Can I install this system myself?

The system itself is not very complicated. However, we wouldn’t recommend attempting to install the caravan part, perhaps leave that to a professional.

.

It is completely up to you though and It’s just a matter of knowing where to run the cables, pulling your dash/trim apart and finding power. If you feel like this is something you would be confident in, then yes you could install itself. If not, please give us a call on 1300 555 514 and we can recommend an installer for you.

Does Polaris install?

Yes we certainly do, please give us a call on 1300 555 514 to get a quote or arrange a booking time.

How much does Polaris charge for installation?

We normally charge $400.00 to install the EV05DC rear vision camera kit.

How much warranty comes with this kit?

You have 2 years warranty so you can be rest assured that you have chosen a product with the support to back it.

Do you really test all your products before they are dispatched?

Yes 100%. Even though we are a small team, we want to make sure that you get a working product at your doorstep.

Do you have a Zipmoney option?

We sure do. For more information on how zipmoney works please visit www.zipmoney.com.au

HUD PLUS

How does the HUD PLUS work?

The HUD PLUS is a small unit that mounts on your dashboard and reflects the speed up onto your windscreen. It simply plugs into the cigarette lighter and it calculates the speed via the GPS satellites. The HUD PLUS also has audible fixed speed and red light camera alerts built into it.

 How is the HUD PLUS beneficial?

There are many reasons why the HUD PLUS would be beneficial and some include:

reduces the risk of accidents as you don’t need to keep diverting your eyes from the road to continually check your speed.

Lowers the risk of speeding fines as you can clearly see what speed you are traveling at and it also has the added bonus of warning you when approaching a fixed speed camera.

It reduces the risk of red light camera fines as the unit will alert you when approaching a fixed red light camera.

Its perfect for people who have changed their tyre size and aren’t exactly sure if their speedometer is correct

It’s great for learner and P plate drivers as they are always trying to monitor their speed but shouldn’t be continually taking their eyes off the road to check.

It’s great for people that have trouble reading small numbers on the speedometer.

Classic or imported cars where the speed is displayed in miles per hour

 

How does it know the speed?

It calculates the speed via GPS satellites

How accurate is it?

Because the speed is calculated via GPS satellites, it is most likely more accurate than your speedo. All speedometers are calibrated to have some margin of error.

What is the GPS Refresh Rate

One time per second (1Hz)

How does it know where the Fixed Speed and Red light cameras are located?

The HUD PLUS works out via satellites when you are approaching fixed Speed and Red light cameras that are loaded in the data.

Who provides the data for the fixed Speed and Red light cameras?

The data is provided by Tom Tom

Does the HUD PLUS display anything on the windscreen when approaching the speed camera and red light cameras?

No the warning is audible only

Do I need to set anything up or turn the camera warnings on when I originally install the unit?

No you do not have to set anything up, just make sure that the voice is not muted (please read troubleshooting FAQ if you cannot hear the warnings).

How many metres does it warn me when approaching speed cameras and red light cameras?

The HUD PLUS will warn you approx. 190 metres on approach and then again at approx 50 metres on approach.

What kind of sound does it make when alerting me to a speed camera?

The unit will actually ‘tell’ you and it will also advise what the current speed zone is.
For example if you are traveling in an 80km/h zone and you are approaching a speed camera it will say ‘Speed Camera in 190 metres, speed zone 80km’, it will then warn you again at approx 50 metres ‘Speed Camera in 50 metres, speed zone 80km’

What kind of sound does it make when alerting me to a red light camera?

The unit will actually ‘tell’ you, for example when approaching a red light camera it will say ‘Red light camera in 190 metres it will then warn you again at approx 50 metres ‘Red Light Camera in 50 metres’.

Will it warn me when approaching mobile speed cameras?

No, it will only warn you when you approach FIXED red light and speed cameras

How do I update the HUD PLUS?

We normally receive an update every year. To get the unit updated, you will need to send the HUD plus  back and we will update it for you.

Can I match it with my vehicles speedo?

Yes there is a setting to calibrate the HUD PLUS to match your speedo exactly.

Does it have speed alerts?

Yes, it has 2 preset speed alert warnings that you can set up yourself.

The unit will make a beep sound when you exceed the preset warning.

So for example if you wanted to set a warning at 80 km/h and 100km/h the unit will beep once when you exceed 80km/h and beep twice when you exceed 100 km/h

Does the HUD PLUS display the time?

Yes the HUD PLUS does display the time. It displays in white and the feature can be turned off

Can I hardwire it?

Yes we do have a hardwire option available, the cable is $22.00 which means that the 12/24 volt  power will be picked up from behind the dashboard.

Why do I need a hardwire cable? Can’t I just cut the cigarette lighter end off?

Our hardwire cable has a 5 volt reducer built in so that when you power it to 12 volt, you do not cause any damage to the unit. The 5 volt reducer is built into the cigarette lighter adaptor so when you cut this off, you are cutting off the reducer.

Can Polaris install the unit for me?

Yes we can, if you want us to hardwire it, it is an extra $50.00.

If you just want us to set it up via the cigarette lighter, this is free of charge.

We will plug the unit in, mount the unit on the dashboard and apply the window tint.

Can I see it in sunlight?

As long as the HUD PLUS has been adjusted correctly to suit your windscreen, the HUD will display in sunlight with no problems. The window tint will also enhance the quality in sunlight.

Can I see the HUD PLUS at night?

Yes you can clearly see the HUD PLUS at night, if the speed is too bright you can simply turn the brightness down.

Do I have to use the window Tint?

The window tint is optional; some customers can see the speed perfectly fine without the window tint (except if you wear polarized sunglasses, please see question below relating to this). We suggest that you set it up without the window tint first and see how you find it.

Can I adjust the brightness?

Yes you can adjust the brightness up and down via the main menu on the HUD PLUS, or if you have the automatic brightness adjustment turned on, the unit will adjust accordingly.

Can install it myself and how?

You simply find a perfect spot to sit your HUD PLUS, plug it into the cigarette lighter and apply the window tint if you wish to use it.

How does it stick on the dash?

The HUD PLUS uses 3M double sided tape to stick onto the dash

 What if my car has a dash mat?

We suggest buying some Velcro and sticking it to the dash mat.

Will it suit my car?

The HUD PLUS will suit any car. We understand that all windscreens are different shapes and sizes this is why the HUD PLUS sits on an adjustable mount so you can move it up and down to get the desired speed display.

Does it alert me when I approach red light cameras and speed cameras?

Yes the Polaris HUD PLUS will alert you when you approach speed cameras or red light cameras.

What is the difference between the DIGITAL HUD and the HUD PLUS? 

The DIGITAL HUD and the HUD plus are the exact same unit. The only difference is that the HUD plus reflects the speed onto your windscreen whereas you look directly at the speed on the DIGITAL HUD.
In other words the HUD plus is reflective and the DIGITAL HUD is non reflective.

Can I see the HUD PLUS if I wear polarized sunglasses?

You can still see the HUD PLUS perfectly fine when used in conjunction with the window tint, it does dim slightly but as long as the HUD PLUS has been adjusted to suit your windscreen you should have no problems.

Please Note: The above information is based from our own experience and customer feedback. Your experience with the Green HUD PLUS may differ due to individual differences and the fact that we all see colours differently.

Will it obstruct my vision?

No you do not have to have it directly in your line of vision but if you do, the speed displays in a clear transparent image, so you can see straight through it.

Troubleshooting

I can’t see the HUD PLUS in sunlight, it’s too faint!

The HUD PLUS works perfectly fine in sunlight; it is probably just a case of adjusting it properly to suit your windscreen.

You will find that if you adjust it up or down, the image will either dim or become brighter.

Sometimes this means seeing the actual HUD PLUS screen as well.

The HUD PLUS is way out from my Speedo (this could range from 10 km/h to 100 km/h)

The HUD PLUS will vary slightly from your speedometer as your speedometer is calibrated with some margin of error, but if it is way out (from 10km/h and up) it is probably just a case of the unit being calibrated incorrectly; this is quite easy to do as it can be confused for the speed alert setting.

If you want the HUD PLUS to simply work off satellites, please set the calibration back to 0.

It takes about 30 seconds to pick up satellite, is this normal?

Yes the unit will take approx 30-40 seconds to pick up satellites

When I go through tunnels, it stops working, is this normal?

Yes, unless the tunnel has a built in GPS booster, the HUD PLUS will lose satellite whilst in a tunnel.

My HUD has overheated and it will not start until it had cooled down, is this normal?

Yes, as with all electronic products they can only take a certain amount of heat. Whilst you are driving this shouldn’t be too much of an issue, however if you are leaving your car parked in the hot sun for a fair amount of time, we suggest unplugging the HUD, sliding it off the bracket and placing it in the glove box. This will prevent the HUD from overheating whilst sitting in the hot sun.

The HUD PLUS is not alerting me to any red light and speed cameras that I approach, is there a problem with the unit?

Please double check that you have not accidentally muted the voice or turned the volume down. To enable/disable the voice press set (do not hold it down as this will turn the time feature on and off). Also go into your volume settings and make sure that the volume is turned up to a reasonable setting so that you can hear it. If you have double checked both of these settings and they are ok, please give us a call on 1300 555 514 to speak with our support team.

The HUD PLUS alerts me for some of the red light/speed cameras and not others, why is this?

As more and more cameras are getting installed, if the speed/red light cameras have been installed within the last update available from Polaris, then unfortunately it won’t be in the data until possibly the next update that we receive from Tom Tom. If you believe that the camera has been there for many years and it still is not warning you please give us a call on 1300 555 514 to speak with our support team.

The DIGITAL HUD keeps cutting out 

We believe this to be a power issue. Please contact Polaris on 1300 555 514 or email returns@poron.com.au and we will send you out a brand new Cigarette lighter adaptor.
