Camera - Forward Facing (Pitch Verification): Setup

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2020 Tesla Model S, 2019 Tesla Model S, 2018 Tesla Model S, 2017 Tesla Model S, and 2016 Tesla Model S. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. If the vehicle is equipped with air suspension, set the ride height to Standard.
  2. Place the target tripod in the appropriate starting position:
    • The target is centered with the Tesla "T" on the front fascia.
    • The target has two legs facing the vehicle and both are less than 5 mm from the lower valance.
    • The target and vehicle are both on a flat surface.
      NOTE: If a flat surface is unavailable, ensure that the vehicle and target are both on the same slope.

  3. Apply a piece of black tape onto the target so that the top edge of the tape is 130 cm from the ground.
    NOTE: The checker pattern on the target is used for vehicles with 1st generation Autopilot. Ignore the checker pattern when affixing the tape.
  4. Set up a local connection:
    • On vehicles equipped with a Tegra based MCU, connect a laptop with Toolbox 2 to the vehicle, and then use Toolbox 3 to set up a local connection.
    • On vehicles equipped with an Intel Atom based MCU, use Toolbox 3 to set up a local connection.
