Before You Begin Installation Before drilling please check that no cable or wiring is on the other side of the wall. Please clamp all wires securely to reduce the possibility of them being damaged while vehicle is in use. Keep all cables away from hot or moving parts and electrical noisy components. We recommend doing a benchmark test before installation to insure that all components are working properly. Step 1: Choose the monitor and camera locations.
Installation Guide Camera 1. Attach camera bracket close to rear marker lights, centered on vehicle. 2. Attach camera to bracket using screws provided and adjust the angle. Cable 1. Be sure to position the cable properly. The aviation camera cable uses aircraft grade connectors which means the camera cable can be exposed to all weather elements, do not run the cable over sharp edges, do not kink the cable and keep away from HOT and rotating parts. 2. Fasten all cable and secure all excess cable.
Wiring Camera & Monitor • When installing a ONE (1) camera setup, connect camera extension cable from the rear view camera to port labeled “backup” (most systems port #3) Connect red 12V+ wire to ignition power source and black wire 12V- to chassis ground. Do not use white and yellow wires. • The blue wire is the REVERSE trigger wire. In typical rear-view installations, connecting this wire to the vehicle’s backup light circuit will activate the rear-view image whenever the vehicle shifts into reverse.
Wiring Camera & Monitor • When installing a TWO (2) camera setup, use ports #3 and #2 and use positive triggers Blue and White. • There is a built-in voltage regulator for our systems which can handle 9-32 volts. Real F To automatically have camera and monitor turn ON when vehicle activates, simply twist BLUE positive trigger 12V+ to Red Power line 12V+ and wire to ignition power which can be an accessory switch/fuse line and black wire 12V- to chassis ground.
