Manual

Before registering the system, mount Blu Eye in the car and install the supplied antenna using Installer Mode (factory installed on Blu Eye). This is the only way to guarantee the optimal functioning of Blu Eye.

If you have a Blu Eye that has been installed in another car before, please download and install Installer Mode first to determine an interference-free location for the antenna.

1. Turn off the car's ignition. This also disables the Blu Eye system.
2. Insert the supplied SD card into the SD card slot of your Blu Eye.
3. Switch on the ignition.
4. Your Blu Eye's unique serial number will now be copied to the SD card.
5. All LED’s will turn on for 5 seconds. As soon as the 5 LED’s of the signal strength indicator go out and only the 2 blue LED’s are lit, this procedure is finished. This takes approximately 5 seconds.
6. Switch off the ignition.
7. Remove the SD card from your Blu Eye.
8. Insert the SD card into the SD card slot of your PC or Mac.
9. Press the "Browse" button to locate the appropriate file.

After Blu Eye has been installed and connected and the antenna placement has been tested with Installer Mode, you need to activate the system.

To do this, proceed as follows:

1. Download the firmware.
2. Copy these files to the SD card (Do not put the files in a folder and make sure that the card does not contain any other files).
3. Remove the SD card from your PC or Mac.
4. Switch off Blu Eye by switching off the car’s ignition.
   If Blu Eye remains on for some time after turning off the ignition (canbus dependent), disconnect the Blu Eye's power plug to turn off the system.
5. Insert the SD card into the SD card slot of your Blu Eye.
6. Switch on the ignition. IMPORTANT: Never interrupt the power to your Blu Eye system during the update process.
7. All LEDs will turn on for 5 seconds. During this initial registration and update process, it takes approximately 30 seconds to copy the files to Blu Eye. Several LED’s light up during the update. At the end of this process, the LEDs step from red to green. The process is complete when the last green LED is extinguished.

IMPORTANT

• Connect the display (or both displays when using a LED and LCD display side by side) to the Blu Eye receiver.
• Do not install the system yet, but connect it to the car's 12V power supply.
