5. Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of your camera kit. The system is designed for surface mount installation.

5.1 Camera Installation

  1. Select a suitable mounting location at the rear of the vehicle that provides an unobstructed view and is protected from potential damage.
  2. Securely attach the camera using the provided mounting hardware. Ensure the camera is oriented correctly.
  3. Route the camera's video and power cables through the vehicle's chassis, protecting them from sharp edges, heat, and moisture.

5.2 Monitor Installation

  1. Choose a mounting location inside the vehicle's cabin that allows the driver a clear view of the monitor without obstructing the road or vehicle controls.
  2. Attach the monitor bracket to the chosen surface using the supplied hardware.
  3. Secure the monitor to its bracket.

5.3 Wiring Connections

  1. Connect the camera's video cable to the corresponding video input on the monitor.
  2. Connect the camera's power cable to a suitable 12-24VDC power source on the vehicle. This can often be linked to the vehicle's reverse light circuit for automatic activation when reversing.
  3. Connect the monitor's power cable to a separate 12-24VDC power source, ensuring it is fused appropriately.
  4. Verify all connections are secure and properly insulated.

6. Operating Instructions

Once installed, operating your ECCO EC5605WK Camera Kit is straightforward.

6.1 Powering On/Off

The monitor will typically power on automatically when the vehicle's ignition is turned on, or when the camera receives power (e.g., when the vehicle is put into reverse, if wired accordingly). To manually power off or on, use the designated power button on the monitor.

6.2 Adjusting Display Settings

Use the buttons on the monitor to access the menu and adjust settings such as brightness, contrast, color, and tint. Optimize these settings for clear visibility in your operating environment.

6.3 Using the Camera View

The monitor will display the live feed from the EC2014-WC camera. Utilize this view to assist with reversing, maneuvering in tight spaces, or monitoring the area behind the vehicle. Remember that objects in the camera view may appear closer or further away than they actually are.

7. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the continued performance and reliability of your ECCO EC5605WK Camera Kit.

  • Cleaning the Camera Lens: Periodically clean the camera lens with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, dust, or debris that may obstruct the view. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Cleaning the Monitor Screen: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the monitor screen. Do not spray cleaning solutions directly onto the screen.
  • Checking Connections: Regularly inspect all cables and connections for signs of wear, corrosion, or looseness. Secure any loose connections.
  • Environmental Care: While the camera is IP69 rated for water and dust resistance, extreme temperatures or prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals should be avoided.
