Kia EV6: Surround View Monitor (SVM)

Description and Operation

Function

1.Vehicle surrounding area video display function.

– The surrounding area video display function, displays 360° video image captured from four cameras on the audio / AVNT monitor screen while the vehicle is moving at low speed move forward or move backward.

2.Guide Line Indication & Steering Wheel Synchronized Feature.

– The Guide Line Indication & Steering Wheel Synchronized Feature is the function that assist the driver in parking by synchronizing the steering wheel with the rear view video display marked with a guide line to help anticipate the direction of the reversing vehicle.

– Neutral guidelines are fixed lines that are displayed regardless of steering wheel operation and are determined by the area of application of the vehicle.

3.Parking distance warning display function

– It provides a function to display obstacle warning signals from ultrasonic sensors mounted in the fore and aft within the surround - view image so that the actual position of the sensors being warned can be checked when parked.

4.Tolerance calibration.

– Tolerance correction is intended to compensate for SVM deviations that may result from assembly line installation tolerances.

– To perform the correct tolerance calibration, the tolerance calibration environment must be constructed in compliance with the specified working environment.

SVM Mode Entry Conditions

The vehicle information is accessed regularly, even after entering SVM mode. When the conditions are met, conversion from front mode to rear mode is available, and vice versa.When the mode is converted, the view displayed on the screen can be the initial view or the previous view depending on the conditions.If the mode for conversion is the initial entry, the default view is selected based on the front or rear. If a continuous front - rear conversion mode occurs as forward and backward movement are repeated for parking, the previous view is recalled and displayed.

– Initial Entry : When the rear and front view modes in SVM mode are displayed on the screen for the first time.

– Re - entry: When switching from SVM mode to another mode, without turning off SVM, and returning to the previous mode.(e.g. Rear → Front → Rear: Re - enter rear mode / Front → Rear → Front: Re - enter front mode)

Switch mode Vehicle speed Gear range SVM Switch Display
Rear → Front Below 10 km/h ( 6 mph) "R" range or "P" range excluded ON Initial Entry: Front view set in the initial view mode option
Re - entry: The last view mode displayed in the previous front mode
Front → Rear Irrelevant "R" range Irrelevant Initial Entry: Rear view set in the initial view mode option
Re - entry: The last view mode displayed in the previous rear mode

SVM Mode Disengagement

If the conditions below are met while in SVM mode, the SVM is turned OFF and no video is displayed.

1.Front modeWhen driving starts after turning on the Park / View button, the Park / View mode is automatically released at vehicle speeds of 10 km/h (6 mph) or higher.- With the Park / View button is 'OFF', When the gear is shifted to R, the SVM automatically operates, and then the gear changes to D, and the vehicle speed changes to 10km/h (6 mph) or more, it is automatically released.

2.Rear mode- It automatically turns off when any gear other than R is selected.

Operations for Guideline Steering Interlocking Indications

The guideline for steering interlocking trace is indicated by using the value of steering wheel angle periodically received by ADAS parking ECU via C-CAN.The rear area displayed in the rear mode image and the steering interlocking guideline are synthesized and displayed.

Adjustment

Tolerance Calibration Outline.

Kia EV6. Surround View Monitor (SVM)   

• SVM calibration tool is required to perform tolerance calibration as shown below.

• Tolerance calibration compensates for the error margins of surround view video that occur due to the installation tolerance when the four cameras that comprise the SVM system are installed.

Kia EV6. Surround View Monitor (SVM)   

Tolerance calibration must be performed when the following actions are performed.

– When removing and installing a SVM camera.

– When conducting a body task such as the trunk task that causes the focus of the SVM camera to change.

– When replacing the outside rear view mirror with a SVM camera.

– When replacing the ADAS Parking ECU.

Tolerance Calibration Environments

Kia EV6. Surround View Monitor (SVM)

Manual Tolerance Calibration Procedure

1.Prepare in advance as below.

– Confirm that the car hood, trunk and doors are closed.

– Close the door after getting in on the driver side.

– Maintain IG ON.

– Unfold outside rear view mirrors.

– Shift the gear to N.

– During the advance preparation, do not install exhaust inhaler or other equipment that may block the view of rearview cameras.

– Engage foot brake and electronic parking brake (EPB) to hold vehicle in place.

2.Before entering tolerance calibration mode, to check normal operation of SVM ECU and cameras, perform the following.

– Check that initial setting screen of SVM is displayed. (Front view image + surround view image when shifted to N)

– Check that front, rear, left and right images of surround view monitor are properly displayed.

– If images are properly displayed, enter tolerance calibration mode. Otherwise, if images are abnormally displayed or are not displayed, replace relevant part.

3.Install two calibration scales, two calibration reference line boards, and four calibration target boards around the vehicle by referring to the manual provided with the tools.

Kia EV6. Surround View Monitor (SVM)   

• There are two types of calibration reference line boards (Type A & B) and the base line should be matched to vehicle type.
