5.2. Wiring Instructions
The camera features specific wires that can be cut to change its functionality. Always ensure the camera is disconnected from power before cutting any wires.
- Orange Cable (Signal Control):
• Default: CVBS Signal
• To change to AHD Signal: Cut the orange cable. - Green Cable (Parking Reference Line Control):
• Default: Reference line ON
• To turn reference line OFF: Cut the green cable. - White Cable (Image Mirror/Positive Control):
• Default: Mirror Image (for rear view)
• To change to Positive Image (for front view): Cut the white cable.
5.3. Angle Adjustment
Use the provided angle adjustment shims to fine-tune the camera's viewing angle for optimal visibility. The kit includes shims for -3°, 3°, 5°, and 7° adjustments.
6. Operating Instructions
6.1. Setting the Rear Lens (AHD/CVBS)
The camera supports both CVBS and AHD video signals. CVBS signals are compatible with all monitors, while AHD signals are only compatible with AHD-specific monitors. Ensure your monitor supports the selected signal type.
- Access your car monitor's settings menu.
- Navigate to the 'Reverse' or 'Camera Settings' section.
- Select the appropriate video format (e.g., AHD 720p 25fps, AHD 1080p 25fps, TVI 720p 25fps, etc.) that matches your camera's output and monitor's capabilities.
If your monitor setup is different, you may need to connect the rear lens and cycle through the available settings to find the correct display. Some monitors may offer NTSC/PAL options in addition to AHD/TVI resolutions.
6.2. Night Vision
The camera features Top Starlight Night Vision, allowing for clear visibility even in very low-light conditions. This function activates automatically.
6.3. Parking Guiding Lines
The camera can display parking guiding lines on your monitor. These lines assist with parking maneuvers. You can enable or disable these lines by cutting the green cable as described in Section 5.2.
6.4. Product Video Overview
Watch this video for a visual overview of the camera's features and capabilities, including wide-angle view, night vision, and waterproofing.
7. Maintenance
7.1. Cleaning
To maintain clear image quality, regularly clean the camera lens. Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners or materials that could scratch the lens.
7.2. Waterproofing
The camera is IP68 waterproof, meaning it is protected against dust and can withstand immersion in water up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes. However, ensure that all cable connections are properly sealed during installation to maintain this protection.
8. Troubleshooting
- No Image/Signal on Monitor:
• Check all cable connections to ensure they are secure.
• Verify the power supply to the camera (DC 5-24V).
• Ensure the correct video signal format (AHD or CVBS) is selected on your monitor, matching the camera's configuration (check orange cable status).
• If your monitor has multiple camera inputs, ensure the correct input is selected. - Image is Mirrored/Upside Down:
• If the image is mirrored and you need a positive image (or vice-versa), check the white cable. Cutting the white cable switches between mirror and positive image. - No Parking Guiding Lines:
• If the guiding lines are not appearing, check the green cable. Cutting the green cable disables the reference lines. Ensure it is in the desired state. - Fuzzy or Distorted Image:
• Clean the camera lens.
• Check the video cable for damage or loose connections. Ensure it is a pure copper cable for optimal transmission.
• Verify that the monitor's resolution settings match the camera's output (720P/1080P).
9. User Tips
- Monitor Compatibility: Always confirm your car monitor's compatibility with AHD or CVBS signals before installation. While CVBS is widely supported, AHD requires a compatible AHD monitor for high-definition display.
- Test Before Finalizing: Before fully securing the camera and routing all cables, temporarily connect the camera and test its functionality (image display, guiding lines, mirror/positive image) to ensure all settings are correct.
- Cable Management: Use cable ties (if included) to neatly secure the wiring, preventing interference and ensuring a clean installation.
