Menu item descriptions.
Picture
1. Brightness:
Adjusts the brightness of the screen. Be careful not to adjust this setting
to high as this will reduce the contrast (blacks will eventually become greys reducing the
contrast to whites)
2. Contrast:
Adjust the transitions of highlighted areas to darkest shadows. A higher
contrast makes the image appear sharper, but to much contrast will remove subtle details
in the mid tones.
3. Colour (Saturation):
This adjusts the colour saturation. Higher levels yield more
colour, however to much colour may effect night time performance (may result in a noisy
image).
4. Reset:
Returns the unit to factory settings.
Option
1. Language:
There are 7 different language settings including popular languages such
as German, Chinese, Italian, and Spanish.
2. Rotate:
Depending on the direction of the camera and the orientation of the camera
head, you may wish to change the orientation of the image for each camera. An example
of this function would be in the event you have a forward facing camera and a rear facing
camera. One of these images is best viewed as a mirror image (the rear view) and the
other as a normal view (the front facing camera). Another situation that may need to be
addressed is a camera that is hung upside down.
3. Zoom:
This function selects the aspect ration of the Image. This can be used to correct
4:3 aspect ration image on a 16:9 aspect monitor.
Note: this selection changes all camera views.
4. V1V2-3S:
When this function is set to on, the system scans between all 3 video inputs
unless a trigger priority is detected. In the even of a trigger the unit will display the tigers
channel. When the trigger is lost the system returns to the scanning mode
.
Note: the scanning mode only operates when the monitor is manual switched on. If the
unit is triggered auto on the system will go back to sleep once the trigger is lost.
5. BC2-AV1:
(Auto front camera operation)
When set to on The system will automatically turn on Av1 for 15 seconds when AV2
looses trigger. This can be used as a way of automatically turning on a front camera after
the vehicle comes out of reverse after backing into a space (parallel parking) and then
showing forward of the vehicle. However, this can only be done if you do not use AV2 for
a trailer and AV1 for the rear of the car.
The alternate way to do this is to manually view AV3 (as the front camera) then select
reverse (the vehicles rear camera will auto engage). Then when the trigger is lost the
monitor will revert back to the front camera automatically.
System
1. S Colour:
Selects the Cameras Color system. This is best left as Automatic. However
you can select Pal or NTSC directly as the colour system of choice.
2. Guide Lines:
Turns monitors parking guide lines on or off for each AV input.
3. Acc1/Acc2/Acc3-Time:
This sets the switch off time after the trigger is removed for
AV1 and 2 channels (AV3 is un triggered and this timer has no effect on this model).
When selected and the vehicle is in reverse the back up light wire of the car triggers the
camera to turn on automatically. When the trigger is lost (the car is taken out of reverse)
the image is normally switched off at that point unless you set an Acc Time.
The Acc-Time allows the camera to stay on f or a prescribed amount of seconds after the
trigger is lost.
Clock
1. Sleep:
Set a time for the monitor to automatically shut off if there is no signal.
