Autel Night Vision/IR Calibration Target 03 (CSC1004-03)

The Autel CSC1004-03 is a dedicated infrared calibration target for night vision systems — the specific component shops need when calibrating thermal/IR-based driver assistance cameras on vehicles equipped with night vision technology. This is a specialty target within Autel's CSC (Calibration Standard Components) ecosystem, designed for use with the MaxiSYS ADAS calibration frame and compatible MaxiSYS diagnostic tablets.

Night vision calibration is a distinct procedure from standard front-camera or radar calibration. Shops that do collision repair, windshield replacement, or front-end work on vehicles with thermal/infrared driver assistance systems — primarily certain BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Lexus, Cadillac, and other luxury-segment vehicles — need this target to complete a proper calibration after any work that disturbs the night vision camera or sensor alignment. Without the correct target, calibration cannot be performed to OEM specification.

What This Target Does

• Night Vision/IR System Calibration: Provides the reference pattern required by Autel ADAS software to calibrate infrared and thermal-type night vision cameras used on select luxury and near-luxury vehicles
• Static Calibration Use: Used in conjunction with the Autel CSC calibration frame in a controlled, stationary calibration environment — not a dynamic (road-drive) target
• Part of the CSC Target System: Numbered Target 03 in Autel's modular target lineup; each numbered target serves a specific ADAS sensor type. Having the correct target number matters — using the wrong one produces calibration errors or rejects the procedure entirely
• Software Integration: Works within Autel's ADAS application running on MaxiSYS Ultra, MS909, MS919, and Elite II tablets. The software identifies the correct target to use and guides positioning before calibration begins

Who Needs This Target

• Collision repair shops working on luxury vehicles where night vision cameras are disturbed during front-end, hood, or bumper repairs
• Windshield replacement shops servicing vehicles with thermal/IR cameras mounted behind or near the glass
• Dealer service departments performing camera R&R or front-end alignment on vehicles equipped with night vision ADAS
• Independent shops that have already invested in the Autel CSC frame and MaxiSYS system and need to expand their target library to cover night vision-equipped vehicles

Important Notes Before Ordering

• This target requires an existing Autel CSC calibration frame setup — it does not function as a standalone item
• Night vision calibration capability also depends on your MaxiSYS tablet having the appropriate ADAS software license and vehicle coverage for the specific make and model being calibrated
• If you are unsure whether this is the correct target for the vehicles you service, or whether your current MaxiSYS setup supports night vision calibration for a specific platform, call us before ordering — exact vehicle coverage and compatibility details are available on request
• This is a precision calibration component. Handle and store per Autel's guidelines to avoid surface damage that could affect calibration accuracy

Compatibility

• Compatible with Autel MaxiSYS ADAS software on MaxiSYS Ultra, MS909, MS919, and Elite II tablets
• Designed for use with the Autel CSC calibration frame (sold separately or as part of ADAS packages)
• Specific vehicle make/model/year coverage for night vision calibration varies — contact us or check your MaxiSYS ADAS software for the current coverage list
