Quick Installation:

1. The included 2.4Ghz wireless modules come in two parts, one is the
"Transmitter", the other is the "Receiver".

• When installing the transmitter accessory cable -- it should connect to
the camera -- allowing the camera to transmit video.

• When installing the receiver accessory cable -- it should connect to the
monitor -- allowing the screen to display video.

• Important Note* When installing, be sure to properly identify the
Transmitter / Receiver.

2. The accessory Transmitter/Receiver cables feature power wiring
connections (some units feature 'loose' power cable wires with the ability
to be 'hard-wired' to your vehicle -- see the *Optional Hard-Wired
Installation description later in the user manual) -- otherwise, the vehicle
camera and monitor system features a direct plug-and-play connection

for system installation. Ensure proper power cable connection to allow

successful camera system video transmission/reception.

Video Connection (Video Transmitter / Video Receiver):

The yellow video connectors are used to transmit / receive the video

signals. Ensure proper video cable connection to allow successful camera

system video transmission/reception.

*Optional Hard-Wired Installation (Not available for all systems):

Camera (Transmitter):

If you decide to create a hard-wired system connection to your vehicle,

connect the transmitter's red wire of the DC 12V power cable, to the
positive 12V reverse tail light in the rear of your car. Then connect the black
wire of the DC 12V power cable and ground properly. The transmitter

should then be connected to the camera, and will supply power to the
camera directly.

the DC 12V power cable and ground properly. The transmitter should then

be connected to the camera, and will supply power to the camera directly.

Camera (Transmitter) Connection:

a. Connect the transmitter's RED power wire to your vehicle's reverse light

positive wire connection.

applied to all connections. Determine the best location to mount the

Wireless Transmitter Cable, as it is not waterproof and needs a safe and
secure location.

positive wire connection.
b. Connect the receiver's BLACK power wire to your vehicle's reverse light
negative wire connection.

Important Notes:

• Determine the best location for the camera (Keep in mind that you must

run the cable from the camera to the transmitter). You may need to drill a

small hole in the panel near your license plate (The camera is preferably

mounted just above the license plate).

• Be sure when running the connection cables to leave a small amount of

slack so you can still move the camera around the license plate, if you

decide to slightly adjust the camera's positioning at a later time.

• Connect the wire from the Camera into the Wireless transmitter.

• You can now test the camera, activate your car and turn the key into the

accessory position. Your connected monitor will automatically power on if

properly connected to a power source. Placing your vehicle in reverse

should provide a picture.
