Installing the Monitor (CAMLCD-AHD-56,
CAMLCD-AHD-70)
Before the installation, find an appropriate location for the
monitor with these considerations in mind:
• The location should be able to support 9 pounds (4 kg)
and should not obstruct the view of the driver.
• The monitor should be installed so that the driver can
easily view the rear-view mirrors of the vehicle. This
system does not replace the need for these mirrors; it is
strictly a supplement. Typically, a center console in the cab
or dashboard can be a good mounting location; mounting
from the ceiling of the vehicle is also possible.
• Avoid placing the monitor where it will be constantly
exposed to direct sunlight, moisture, a strong magnetic
field (as near a speaker), or a heat source (A/C or heater
duct).
• Before choosing a mounting location, decide where
to route the monitor cable. The installation requires an
appropriately sized hole to accommodate whichever cable
your system has:
• CAMLCD-AHD-56: This monitor has an input/power/
trigger wiring harness that has two camera inputs,
power/ground, and two trigger wires.
• CAMLCD-AHD-70: This monitor has an input/power/
trigger wiring harness that has four camera inputs,
power/ground, and four trigger wires.
Mounting the Monitor in the Vehicle
AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT: Do not install equipment or route
wiring in the deployment path of an airbag. Failure to observe
this warning will reduce the effectiveness of the airbag or
potentially dislodge the equipment, causing serious injury.
