TEXA IR Calibration Target with Night Vision Calibration Column — Mercedes-Benz (S12612)

The TEXA S12612 is an infrared calibration target assembly designed specifically for Mercedes-Benz vehicles equipped with night vision (infrared) camera systems. It is used within the TEXA RCCS (Radar & Camera Calibration System) workflow — alongside the RCCS 2, RCCS 3, or RCCS 3 EVO calibration frame — to perform OEM-specified night vision camera calibrations after windshield replacement, camera R&R, or any front-end repair that disturbs the sensor position.

This is a vehicle-specific calibration panel, not a universal target. Mercedes-Benz night vision systems require a dedicated IR-reflective target at a precise position in front of the vehicle. The S12612 includes the calibration target itself plus the night vision calibration column, which mounts to the RCCS frame and positions the IR target at the correct height and standoff distance as required by the Mercedes-Benz calibration procedure.

What This Target Covers

• System: Mercedes-Benz night vision (infrared) front camera calibration
• Calibration type: Static ADAS calibration — performed in a controlled indoor environment using the RCCS frame
• Compatible RCCS frames: TEXA RCCS 2, RCCS 3, RCCS 3 EVO (frame sold separately)
• Software required: TEXA IDC5 ADAS calibration software with active subscription (sold separately)
• Interface required: TEXA Navigator TXT or NANO diagnostic interface (sold separately)

What's Included

• IR calibration target panel (Mercedes-Benz night vision specific)
• Night vision calibration column (mounts to RCCS frame crossbar)
• Hardware and mounting brackets for column-to-frame attachment

The calibration column is the key component here. Night vision targets must be elevated to a specific height relative to the vehicle's front bumper line — this column handles that positioning requirement without requiring a separate stand or improvised mounting solution.

Who Needs This

This target is for shops that already own a TEXA RCCS calibration frame and are servicing Mercedes-Benz vehicles equipped with night vision. It is a required add-on target for any shop doing windshield replacements or front-end work on Mercedes-Benz models with the night vision option. Without it, the IDC5 software cannot complete the night vision calibration procedure — the software will prompt for this specific target type.

If your shop does collision work or ADAS recalibration on Mercedes-Benz and you have encountered the night vision calibration step before, you already know that a generic IR target or a makeshift solution will not satisfy the OEM procedure. This panel is the correct tool for that job.

If you are not yet set up with a TEXA RCCS frame, contact us — we can quote the complete system including frame, software, interface, and the Mercedes-Benz target panels your vehicle mix requires.

Calibration Workflow

• Step 1: Position vehicle on a flat, level surface using the RCCS self-centering laser alignment system
• Step 2: Mount the night vision calibration column to the RCCS frame crossbar at the correct lateral position
• Step 3: Attach the IR calibration target to the column at the specified height
• Step 4: Connect TEXA Navigator interface to vehicle OBD port; launch IDC5 ADAS module
• Step 5: Follow IDC5 on-screen procedure — software guides the technician through the Mercedes-Benz OEM calibration sequence
• Step 6: Confirm calibration pass/fail in IDC5; print or save calibration report for the repair order
