Important Notes:

4 Separate Cameras Required: This monitor requires up to 4 separate cameras (not included) for full functionality. Each camera input has dedicated trigger wire allowing automatic camera activation based on vehicle operation (reverse gear, turn signals, brake lights). Monitor functions with 1-4 cameras connected, but all viewing modes require appropriate number of cameras installed.

Professional Installation Recommended: Proper installation requires mounting monitor securely, routing 4 camera cables through vehicle, connecting trigger wires to appropriate vehicle circuits (reverse lights, indicators, brake lights), and testing all camera angles and switching functions. Incorrect wiring may cause camera malfunction, incorrect triggering, or electrical issues. Professional installation ensures optimal camera positioning, secure weatherproof connections, and proper integration with vehicle electrical systems.

Wide Voltage Range Compatibility: Operates on 12V to 24V DC (±10%) suitable for passenger vehicles (12V), commercial trucks (24V), buses, and caravans. Verify voltage compatibility with your vehicle electrical system before installation. Do not exceed voltage range as this may damage monitor electronics.

Camera Compatibility Requirements: Designed for standard analog cameras with composite video output compatible with PAL or NTSC video systems. Digital cameras, IP cameras, or cameras with non-standard outputs are not compatible. Ensure camera outputs match monitor inputs before purchase.

Environmental Operating Limits: Rated for -20°C to +70°C operating temperature suitable for Australian climate conditions. However, extreme direct sunlight exposure or enclosed cabin temperatures exceeding 70°C may cause temporary shutdown or display degradation. Use provided sun visor and ensure adequate ventilation around monitor for reliable operation.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How many cameras do I need and what cameras are compatible?

A: This monitor supports 1 to 4 cameras (cameras sold separately). You can start with one camera and add more as needed. Compatible with standard analog cameras featuring composite video output (RCA or aviation-style connectors) supporting PAL or NTSC video systems. Reverse cameras, side cameras, front cameras, and blind-spot cameras all work if they output standard analog video. Digital cameras, IP cameras, or HD-SDI cameras are not compatible. Ensure cameras have 4-pin aviation-style connectors or compatible wiring for connection to monitor's water-resistant lockable ports.

Q: How does the automatic camera switching work?

A: Each of the 4 camera inputs has a dedicated trigger wire. Connect trigger wires to appropriate vehicle circuits: rear camera trigger to reverse light power, left/right camera triggers to turn signal circuits, front camera trigger to brake or ignition. When trigger receives power (e.g., reverse gear engaged), monitor automatically switches to corresponding camera view. You can also manually select cameras using front panel buttons or IR remote. Trigger sensitivity and switching behavior may require professional adjustment during installation.

Q: Will this work in my 12V car and 24V truck?

A: Yes, the monitor operates on 12V to 24V DC (±10% tolerance) making it compatible with passenger vehicles (12V), light commercial vehicles (12V), heavy trucks (24V), buses (24V), and caravans (12V or 24V). The wide voltage range eliminates need for separate models for different vehicle types. Ensure proper fusing (recommended 1-2A fuse) on power supply line for protection.

Q: What are the 11 different image modes?

A: The 11 viewing modes include: (1) Single full-screen camera 1, (2) Single full-screen camera 2, (3) Single full-screen camera 3, (4) Single full-screen camera 4, (5) Dual horizontal split (2 cameras side-by-side), (6) Dual vertical split (2 cameras top/bottom), (7) Triple screen with one large + two small, (8) Triple screen alternate layout, (9) Quad split (4 cameras equal size), (10) Quad split with one emphasized camera, (11) Quad split alternate layout. Specific layouts may vary - consult user manual for detailed view configurations. Use front panel buttons or IR remote to cycle through modes.

Q: Where should I mount this monitor and how difficult is installation?

A: Common mounting locations include dashboard (using U-bracket), windscreen (with suction mount - not included), or custom console mounting. Choose location providing clear driver visibility without obstructing critical vehicle controls or sightlines. Professional installation is strongly recommended as it requires: (1) Routing 4 separate camera cables through vehicle, (2) Mounting cameras with proper aiming angles, (3) Connecting trigger wires to vehicle electrical circuits (reverse lights, indicators), (4) Securing all connections with weatherproof methods, (5) Testing all camera views and automatic switching functions. DIY installation possible for experienced automotive electrical enthusiasts, but professional installation ensures optimal camera positioning, reliable weatherproof connections, and compliance with local regulations regarding in-vehicle displays.
