This was much harder to install than the wireless modules. However, after three years of constantly struggling with a wireless device that kept losing signal at the worst possible moment, this device was excellent. When trucks pass by or when you're reversing and need to see something, the cameras don't lose signal. I use this on a 30ft camper trailer pulled by a Ford Lariat. I always use reversing cameras on my rear view mirror and the picture is clear to at least 75 meters and works all the time. The view on the monitor is better than in my photos. It was raining during the photo shoot, so the camera had to shoot through the raindrops. As for the installation. Marking on the floor and making sure everything worked was incredibly easy. The hardest part is routing all the wires and four cables for the four cameras. It also requires getting power somewhere, and in my Ford Lariat pickup, getting power was a big problem. This monitor does not come with a plug that simply plugs into the cigarette lighter. Trying to make a connection to the ignition wire seemed impossible. For power, I connected the yellow wire directly to the battery. It cannot be turned on and off with the ignition switch, you must remember to turn off the power with the monitor's power switch. In order to route the camera cables inside the booth, I had to drill holes in the floor of the booth. TRUCK. The problem is that there are three cables coming from the 30ft trailer that need to be routed under the trailer, with a disconnect point at the front of the trailer. Then run three more cables under the truck to connect the trailer and the monitor in the truck cab. I placed the 4th camera behind the front grill for a front view. This cable must also be routed through this hole in the floor panel. Most vehicles have factory pre-drilled holes in the floor pan that are covered with rubber grommet or tape. They were too small on my Ford and had to be enlarged. When I worked up the courage to pick up the rug, it wasn't so bad. If the trailer cameras are installed next to one of the long moldings, it is fairly easy to route the small camera cables along the molding. [cm.

The instructions aren't very clear, but only camera 2 has park lines, and they turn on when power is applied to the green trigger line for camera 2. I installed this camera in the grille and used the parking lines to show where the front of the truck is when I'm not towing a trailer. [cm. drawing] The work is actually not difficult if you have at least a little bit at hand. I'm 78 and made it myself. It took a lot longer than I expected, but the older you get, the slower you get and the harder it is to get under the truck and run the cables in the car. Despite this, the system is a remarkably good system. Looking back, I regret struggling with the wireless system and the constant problem of signal loss for so many years. I recently drove my RV down a long S-shaped driveway with bushes and trees on either side and was able to drive the whole way. Away without jumping out of the pickup and running back to see where the back of the trailer is. When towing, I show camera #1 on top of the monitor, camera #3 on the right side of the monitor, and camera #4 on the left side of the monitor. [cm. image] I think it's option 3 in the split screen menu. Reversing Camera [Ref. Image] is attached to the top edge of the back of the trailer and you can even see low hanging branches which can be a problem. I have my rear camera 100% activated and use it as a mirror to see traffic. Traffic is free over 75 meters. I am very happy with this system with 4 cameras and a 10" monitor. It has more than enough bells and whistles to keep most campers happy including the ability to record what is happening on the monitor. Speakers can be handy but that just drives up the price,adds more cords and possibly solves the problem with portable radios which are very cheap and easy to use.I am very happy with this setup.I've been on 3 test drives where I've had it used at simulated RV sites and on 2 trips where I serviced it at real RV sites in state parks I do it alone and was able to see and jump over all the obstacles Image quality is great Night vision was ok but I'm not very good with it as i only used it once and it kept me from hitting a limb because it shows up as a kind of red color.
