Valtra SmartTouch camera connection

[farmer dave136]

anybody able to tell me how I connect a camera to the smarttouch screen please
Thanks

 

[Matt77]

I’d also like to do this, anyone done it yet?

Looks like it’s an M12 type screw-in terminal similar to a Fendt. You could buy an adapter cable or make your own.

Does your user manual give the pin outs?

 

[Matt77]

I’ve not got as far as looking at the manual, I googled about the camera and the OP came up, looks simple enough from what you’ve put up, thanks

This is the M12 camera pinout on a Fendt. A fairly good chance Valtra will use the same pinout on their M12 connector.

You should check VCC and ground are correct position using your multimeter. It doesn’t matter if the other pins are swapped around at the start. Just get the power pins correct off the bat.

M12 x 1 circular connector, 5-pin, A-coded (connecter has coding pins)

Max. Recommended power consumption is 5W per camera (socket)

1 (brown) = Video Signal (VIDx_Signal)
2 (white) = Vehicle earth (GND_Tractor)
3 (blue) = Stabilised 12V current supply (VCC_12V)
4 (black) = Power supply earth (GND)
5 (grey) = Reference potential, video signal (coaxial wire screen) (VIDx_GND)

Note: colours above refer to wire colours within 5-wire M12 cable on Dakota Micro AC-FDT01 adapter cable.

Crikey, as soon as you put fendt in the search, the price goes up doesn’t it

Excellent, thank you.

I just buy my cables “no brand” and put my own connectors to suit whatever camera is needed.

Soldering iron or crimp tool and a steady hand is all you need.

Just been on RS components, can’t find that m12 plug, being dumb I expect.

Not sure what I put in first time but found them all now, thanks.

Hi, no, I just brought some off eBay, they weren’t very expensive, couldn’t see the point in making my own in the end.

 

[grkmkale]

Merhaba, hayır, biraz önce eBay'den getirdim, çok pahalı değillerdi, sonunda kendiminkini yapmanın anlamını göremedim.

Anlıyorum Türkiye'de yaşıyorum 1 lira 18 türk lirası 35 lira büyük para o yüzden kendim yapacağım

 

[grkmkale]

I understand, I live in Turkey 1 pound 18 turkish liras, 35 pounds big money so I will do it myself

Does anyone know if you can add more than one camera to the smart touch screen? Looking to put a couple on the drill. Thanks
