Wireless Backup Camera Installation:   

Mechanical Installation:  

Remove the plastic shrink wrap from the RF Wireless Backup Camera. Attach the provided antenna to the RF 
Wireless Camera by screwing it in place using only your fingers to tighten in place. Select the appropriate mounting 
location for your camera. To obtain the best camera performance we recommend that the RF Wireless Backup 
Camera be mounted as high on the rear end of the trailer or vehicle as possible to do so. The antenna of the backup 
camera should be above the top of the trailer or vehicle if possible to do so for best performance. Another 

consideration is the location of 12 VDC power 
required to operate the camera. We recommend that 
the camera be centered in the trailer for best backup 
viewing. One option you may have would be to locate 
the backup camera near the center trailer running 
lights. Once you have selected the best mounting 
location, remove the two (2) Phillips head machine 
screws from the backup camera. Once removed the 
sunscreen, camera and mounting base are now 
loose. Keep the two (2) Phillips head screws for 
reassembly of the camera.  
 
Fasten the camera mounting bracket to the trailer 
mounting location using at least two (2) mounting 
screws and washers (mounting screws and washers 
not included.) The RF Wireless Camera can be 
damaged or destroyed if not securely fastened to 
your vehicle! Tuson Corporation assumes no 
responsibility for damage as a result of and improper 
installation. Once the mounting bracket is securely 
mounted to the trailer, reassemble the camera and 
sunscreen to the mounting bracket using the two (2) 
Phillips head machine screws. Tightening these two 
Phillips screws will fix the camera viewing angle in 
the vertical and fix the position of the sunscreen 
simultaneously. Tighten these two (2) Phillips screws 
fully to lock the RF Wireless camera into the 
mounting bracket.  

 

In order to get better wireless transmission between camera and display, place camera as high as possible. 
It is suggested the camera's antenna be over the roof. 

 

Electrical Installation:   

The RF Wireless Backup camera has a bonded pair of 14 AWG lead wires colored red positive (+) and black ground 
(-). Connect the positive red camera lead wire to the 12 VDC power circuit positive wire (+) using a weather proof 
electric connector. Next connect the black lead ground (-) wire from the camera to the ground circuit (-) wire using 
the weather proof electric connector provided.  

Wireless Backup Camera 

Red wire: +12 voltage. Black wire: Ground.
