TRSVC control unit
The exterior cameras record the area around the vehicle from various angles and send this information to the TRSVC control unit via Ethernet. The video signals are transmitted from the TRSVC control unit to the head unit via an Ethernet line. The head unit transmits the signals to the Central Information Display via an Automotive Pixel Link line.
The installation location of the TRSVC control unit is in the footwell on the driver's side.
