indicates Standby Mode, which conserves power by turning
off the monitors until you manually turn on the system.
To manually turn on the system, briefly press the /CAM/SEL
(power/camera select) button. The image of CAM1 (Camera 1)
or the last camera selected, the number of which is stored in
memory, appears on the monitor. The LED turns off when the
system is powered on and an image is displayed.
To automatically turn CAM1 (Camera 1) on, 12 V — 24 V should
be applied to the Green/Reverse wire. This can both power
the monitor from Standby Mode and select Camera 1.
To automatically turn CAM2 (Camera 2) on, apply 12 V — 24 V
to the White CAM2 wire. This can both power the monitor
from Standby Mode and select Camera 2.
If two cameras are connected, briefly pressing the /CAM/
SEL button enables you to manually switch to CAM2 from
CAM1 and from CAM1 to CAM2. You can also switch cameras
when the system is on by applying 12-24 V to the appropriate
