Camera and Monitor Installation Guide  & Best Result Tips

To set up the camera in your trailer

1. Use the clamping base to mount the camera. The clamping base can be clamped on any pole or board which is less than 2 ¼” in diameter or thick. Choose the mounting spot and tighten the clip bolt on the clamping base.

2. Loosen the tilt lock knob, adjust the camera , point it in the direction where you wish to monitor, and tighten the tilt lock knob.

3. Insert a 9V battery. Turn the On/Off switch to the ON setting.

The camera is set!


To set up the monitor in your pulling vehicles:

1. Mount the goose-neck suction mount to the windshield, dashboard, or window.

2. Attach the monitor to the goose-neck suction mount.

3. Attach the antenna connector to the monitor.

4. Open the car door and mount the booster antenna (magnet base) on the side of your vehicle. Run the wire between the antenna and the monitor through the car door and the car frame, not through the car window and door frame.

5. Plug the power jack into the monitor, and then plug the 12V car lighter adapter into the lighter jack.

6. Turn the monitor on.

7. Adjust the position of the monitor, the antenna wire, and the power wire to avoid interference with the driver.


Best Result tips

For best performance, please consider these few guidelines:

The distance between the monitor and camera:

  • Straight line, clear view, no obstacles in between, up to 300 feet.
  •  When the camera is in the trailer, and the signal needs to go through
    layers of metal and is not in a direct line with the monitor’s antenna,
    up to 60 feet.

A fresh, strong 9V battery to provide adequate power to transmit the signal.
A single alkaline 9V battery can operate the camera up to 5 hours during the day or 3 hours in night vision mode.

The booster antenna is very important. It is the most common cause of a lack of image or a distorted image. The best place to mount the antenna depends on the type of vehicle:

  • SUV: Please mount it on the strip of metal that makes up the window frame on the driver or passenger side (on the same side the camera is mounted). Put it on the second row passenger side, or possibly further back. If this is not available, please mount the antenna on the outside of the car above the door handle on the same side the camera is mounted. Mount the booster antenna on the same side of the vehicle where the camera is mounted.
  • Pickup Truck: Please mount it on the outside of the cargo bed, near the back, on the same side the camera is mounted.

    DO NOT MOUNT THE ANTENNA ON THE ROOF.

    If the antenna is mounted on the roof, it will pick up and boost extraneous
    signals causing severe interference.

Camera should be mounted between 8 to 15 feet above the monitored objects.

Turn off the camera while it is not in use.

When not in use for long periods of time, please store the unit in a cool, dry place.
