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
the Camera and Transmitter Location, page
If you have already connected the camera to the bracket, you
must first disassemble it.
1
Place the bracket 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 .

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
and Transmitter Location, page
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
24 VDC power source, preferably a reverse lamp
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.

Using the Camera

The camera shows video on the device in different ways,
depending on how you connected the power to the transmitter.
1
Select an option to show video:
• If you connected the transmitter to a reverse lamp
(recommended), place the vehicle into reverse. The
device automatically shows video from the backup
camera.
• If you connected the transmitter to a running lamp or other
steady 12 VDC source, select the camera icon on the
device to show video from the backup camera.
2
Select an option to resume normal device operation:
• If you connected the transmitter to a reverse lamp
(recommended), take the vehicle out of reverse. The
device automatically resumes normal operation.
• If you connected the transmitter to a running lamp or other
steady 12 VDC source, select the camera icon on the
device to resume normal operation.

Aligning the Guidance Lines

Guidance lines provide a visual representation of the vehicle's
path when in reverse. For best reference, they should be aligned
to reflect the outside edges of the vehicle.

Position the vehicle with one side closely aligned to a curb,
driveway, or parking stall lines.
