• The fuse holder located near the transmitter is not
waterproof. Installing the fuse holder in a location that is
exposed to the elements is not recommended.
• The connector between the camera and the transmitter is not
waterproof. If you make this connection in a location exposed
to the elements, you must make sure that the connection is
waterproof.
• If you are installing the camera on a boat trailer or other
location that may be exposed to water, you must waterproof
all wiring connections and the fuse holder in the transmitter
cable.
Testing the Camera and Transmitter Location
1
Temporarily secure the camera in the preferred mounting
location.
2 Temporarily place the transmitter in the preferred installation
location, and connect it to power and to the camera.
TIP: If you do not want to splice into the wiring of your vehicle
for this test, you can connect the transmitter and camera to a
12 Vdc battery.
3 Test the transmitter for correct operation by applying power
to the GPS device using the BC 30 receiver cable.
If you do not see video on the GPS device at the preferred
installation location, move the transmitter to another location
and test it again.
4 Repeat steps 2–3 until the transmitter operates correctly.
5 Test the camera view by observing the video on the device.
6
If the camera does not provide the optimal view for your
vehicle, move it to another location and test it again.
7
Repeat steps 5–6 until the camera mounting location
provides the optimal view for your vehicle.
TIP: Make note of which direction is up when you are testing
the camera view to ensure correct permanent installation.
Mounting the Camera
Before you permanently mount the camera, you should test the
mounting location for the optimal view for your vehicle ( Testing
the Camera and Transmitter Location ).
If you have already connected the camera to the bracket, you
must first disassemble it.
1
Place the bracket
À
in the mounting location.
2 Select an option:
• If you are mounting the bracket directly on the surface of
your vehicle, mark the locations of the two holes on the
bracket
Á
.
• If you are installing the bracket on a license plate, remove
one of the license plate screws and clip the bracket in
place so the hole on the bracket
Â
lines up with the hole
on the license plate.
3
Secure the bracket to the vehicle using either the included
self-tapping screws
Ã
or the license-plate screw you
removed in step 2
Ä
.
4 Place the camera in the bracket, and determine the best
place for the camera cable
Å
to enter the vehicle.
5
Using an appropriate drill bit, drill a hole for the camera cable
to enter the vehicle.
6 Feed the camera cable through the hole and route it to the
transmitter location.
15 m (50 ft.) extension cables can be purchased separately,
if needed.
7 Secure the camera in the bracket using the included hex
bolts
Æ
.
8
Adjust the angle of the camera and tighten the hex bolts
using the included hex key.
9 Apply RV sealant around the cable where it enters the
vehicle (optional).
Installing the Transmitter
Before you permanently install the transmitter, you must test the
installation location for correct operation ( Testing the Camera
and Transmitter Location ).
1
Secure the transmitter to the installation location using
hardware appropriate for the location, such as screws, bolts,
or cable ties.
The fuse holder located near the transmitter is not
waterproof. Installing the fuse holder in a location that is
exposed to the elements is not recommended.
2
Connect the camera and transmitter cables.
The connector between the camera and the transmitter is not
waterproof. If you make this connection in a location exposed
to the elements, you must make sure that the connection is
waterproof.
3
Connect the power cable
À
from the transmitter to a 12–
24 VDC power source, preferably a reverse lamp
Á
, using a
solderless wire-splice connector (not included).
NOTE: Connecting the transmitter to an always-on
12-24 VDC source (such as a running lamp) instead of a
reverse lamp requires you to manually switch power to the
transmitter. The transmitter may drain your vehicle battery if it
is left on.
4
If you did not use a solderless wire-splice connector, solder
and heat-shrink the electrical connections to protect them
from the elements.
Appendix
Multiple Cameras
You can pair up to four wireless cameras with the BC 30
receiver cable. For example, you can pair one backup camera
installed on your vehicle and a second backup camera installed
on a trailer. See the BC 30 Wireless Backup Camera Owner's
Manual for information about pairing multiple cameras.
