Return to Top.
1a. 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!

1b. To setup 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
doorframe.
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

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 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.
