Parts Identification
Introduction
This manual contains instructions to make the installation of the camera and monitor easier. The color backup camera system is a supplement to standard rear-view mirror systems, and will provide additional rear-view vision when installed and maintained properly. It is not intended in any way to be a substitute for careful and cautious driving.
Getting Started
- TEST THE SYSTEM
We recommend doing a benchmark test before installation to insure that all components are working properly.To ensure the system works properly after installation, all components should be tested and checked before installation.
Firstly, refer to the what’s in the box page to check whether the component is missing. We do not rule out that some components may be damaged in the case of violent loading and unloading during transportation. If so, please contact us in time.
Secondly, connect the power cable(9 pin connector) to the monitor, the positive and negative terminals to 12-32v voltage, then the power indicator will turn blue and all the buttons into blue backlight, indicating the successful test of the display, can work normally.
Finally, connect 4-pin connector(the other end of the power cable)to the backup camera, restart the power supply of the monitor, and the corresponding channel image will appear, If display normally, so the backup camera is working properly. If not please refer to the troubleshooting.
Note: The monitor can only display the image of the camera of the corresponding channel, if your camera is connected to the AV1 channel, please switch the monitor to AV1.
- BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION
- As the camera needs to be fixed on the vehicle, it may need to drill a hole on your car, before drilling please measure the size of boreholes and check that no cable or wiring is on the other side of the wall.
- Keep all cables away from hot or moving parts and electrical noisy components.
- Please clamp all wires securely to reduce the possibility of them being damaged while vehicle is in use.

What is the green wire on a backup camera?
Connect the green trigger wire to a power source that is hot only when the vehicle is in reverse (i.e. back-up lights or back-up beeper). This will cause the rear camera to turn on automatically when vehicle is placed in reverse.
