INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

VOM-784CT MONITOR

1. Attach monitor inside vehicle in a location convenient to the driver (e.g. Center of dash, overhead or in dash).

Do not impede the operator's view of any vehicle controls or the view outside the vehicle.

2. Use a compression plate to attach the monitor bracket to the dash or overhead (See Fig.1).

3. Adjust mounting angle of the monitor to allow driver to easily view the screen from all seat position (See Fig.2).

4. If necessary, snap sun visor into groove on front face of monitor. Press all (4) sides of the visor to snap it into place.

VEC-65 & VCT-655 CABLE (Not supplied)

1. The camera-to-cable connection is waterproof. The cable-to-monitor connection is not waterproof.

Be sure to orient the cable properly. The cylindrical end attaches to the camera. The rectangular box end attaches to

the monitor.(See Fig.3)

2. Do not run the VEC-65 & VCT-655 cable over sharp edges. Do not kink the cable.
Keep the cable away from hot and rotating parts.

3. Place all excess cable in convoluted tubing.

4. Tie the cable securely.

MAINTENANCE:

** CAUTION **

1. Before drilling, be sure no cable or wiring is on the other side. Be sure to drill a 3/4" diameter hole only.

2. Feed as much cable as possible into vehicle and clamp securely. This reduces the possibility of being hooked

during production.

3. Keep all cables away from HOT, ROTATING and ELECTRICALLY NOISY components.

4. To increase protection of cable, place all excess wire and extension cable in convoluted tubing.

5. Do not twist camera cable and do not cut camera pigtail or cable.

WIRING MONITOR

1. See wiring diagram for connections.(See Fig.3)

2. Wiring Monitor:

Insert extension cable into camera #1 position if four cameras are used , be sure to mark each extension cable
properly, plug second ,third and four cables into camera #2, #3 or #4 position.
Bundle excess cable together using a cable tie or vinyl tape. This will avoid possible damage to cable during
operation.(See Fig.3)

3. The red wire is connected to an ignition power source, the black wire

is connected to chassis ground, and the blue wire is connected to the rear gear position, the brown, green and orange

wires are connected to the direction signals.(See Fig.3)
