@Pilvr83 see the quoted post above yours, is that what you're looking for?

 

Fast-forward. Thank you so much. I should have started with newest back!!

Visit this thread if you have question about anytimebackupcamera mod. When you watch both of my videos, I hope it will shed some light on how the kit works and how to connect the shift knob to it.
Lets keep our current thread all about MESO!

 

Came home and this was waiting for me. Don’t know what I’m more excited about? The new upgraded DIY kit, or the new sticker that I don’t have!! Thanks again @MESO

 

The sticker of course.

 

I got the same sticker (1st holographic) but unfortunately for me, in my same fashion of sticking it on the undersides of modded panels- it got ruined… it wouldn’t stick and then started curling up , maybe I didn’t clean it enough to stick

so I put a plain black one back on

 

I get my knob tomorrow! Hope I get one of those golden stickers!

 

Help me understand...when I splice pins 5 and 8 to stealth button...I press button once and release...Does the camera view stay on?

Sorry sent to wrong area

 

Wiring help
I have this switch for my front camera which wires do I tap the Stealth button into
Thanks

 

I think I figured out a way to get three auxiliary cameras tied to one MESO switch. It'll take some clicking to make it all work, but in theory it will. Somebody shoot me down if I'm getting this wrong.

1. Get the PAC TR7 unit.
2. Get the Brandmotion 3-input video switcher.
3. Put your first (primary) auxiliary camera into input #1 on BM.
4. Put your second auxiliary camera into input #2 on BM.
5. Put your third auxiliary camera into input #3 on BM.
6. Feed BM output as you normally would a single auxiliary camera via ABC.
6. Program PAC TR7 to mode #16.
7. Engage primary auxiliary camera like normal with ABC.
8. One pulse engages input #2 on BM and overrides input #1 (normally pass through).
9. Second pulse disengages input #2 and engages #3 and overrides input #1.
10. Third pulse engages inputs #2 & #3 (I have no idea if the universe explodes, or the BM has a method to choose).
11. Fourth pulse disengages inputs #2 & #3 and defaults back to #1 (Primary).

Oh, and you have to tie one side of the MESO switch to ground and the other side to the PAC TR7. Can I assume negative on the PAC TR7 is ground?

<edit> It looks like you could use the

$100 PAC VS41 Pac Intelligent 4 CAM SWTCHR

PAC VS41 instead of the BrandMotion unit. You wouldn't be able to do anything with the 4th camera though. Hmmm, the VS41 has a priority scheme. So I guess in theory you could AND the two TR7 outputs and send that signal to input #4, output #2 to input #3, output #1 to input #2, and default secondary camera on input #1. That would get you 4 auxiliary cameras. But you'd have to wire up an AND gate somehow.

 

I thought it was red1 and black- but to confirm look back a few (maybe 10) pages and it’s mentioned

 

I went back and looked but the button I saw only had 3 wires and went to the beat sonic adapter and I also saw the anytime camera button where it toggles but that button has 6 wires

I was thinking it would be the green and red 1 wire but I wanted to make sure before I do it

 

No MESO posted it- find his most recent post in this thread and hit the back arrow on that post and keep going back until you see him mention it

 

Ok I think I found it but he’s talking about the Factory camera button on the 2020 but I guess I can try the same thing and try and use a jumper to see what wires work.

Thanks

 

The dual MESO Shift Knob Switch:

 

Splicing the pins to the stealth button should function the same as the camera button already does. It's a momentary input by default, same as the stealth switch.

 

Hey I just installed my new shift knob. Thing is sweet thanks Meso!!!!
I do have a question, could the illumination from the ect button be spliced and put onto another switch? Since it’s no longer being used with the ect button? Or is it a closed Circuit with the ect button to activate?
Just thinking how to get a Dimmable switch in the location of the ect.

 

Nope- you didn’t go back enough. (It was further back than I thought but just got to keep hitting that back arrow)

 

Ok cool thanks

 

* SOLD*

I'll post here first before I make a new FS thread.

Bought this, then Meso announced the Injection molded V2, so I just waited for it to drop.
