Installation Guide
Camera Installation
1. Attach camera bracket close to rear marker lights, centered on vehicle.
2. Camera: Drill a 20mm (0.8in) diameter hole into vehicle body near the camera and
bracket. Insert camera cable into vehicle (be careful not to kink cable) and fit grommet
into hole. Apply sealant around grommet to increase resistance to water penetration.
Connect camera to the camera extension cable which runs inside the vehicle.
3. Feed as much cable as possible into vehicle & clamp securely. This reduces the pos-
sibility of cable being hooked or snagged. The aviation camera cable uses aircraft
grade connectors which means the camera cable can be exposed to all weather ele-
ments.
4. Attach camera to bracket using screws provided and adjust the angle.
Wiring Camera
5. The power harness on this unit has 4 camera ports (BLUE-BACKUP, YELLOW-LEFT,
BROWN-RIGHT, and BLACK-FRONT.)
6. Each camera should be connected to its corresponding port. All that is needed for
the system to work is to connect the POWER (red) to 12V and the GROUND (black).
7. The camera and monitor can always be activated by manually pushing the power
button on monitor. This is in addition to utilizing the positive triggers.
8. As you may have noticed, there are also 3 multi-colored wires (blue, brown, yellow).
These are trigger wires, and when they are energized (12V) they will turn on their cor-
responding channel. The Blue wire will also turn on gridlines and sound.
9. The camera system can be wired to be powered “ON” the entire time the vehicle is on.
This is typical in RV and some commercial applications.
