Operating Instructions
The camera offers customizable settings via three switcher cables:
- White Cable: Cut to switch from mirror image (rear view, default) to non-mirror image (front view).
- Orange Cable: Cut to switch from CVBS video signal to AHD video signal. Use this if your monitor supports AHD 720P 30HZ (NTSC) video settings.
- Green Cable: Cut to turn off the guide lines.
Note: Always reconnect the power supply after cutting any cable for changes to take effect. Cables can be reconnected if needed to revert settings.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your GreenYi camera, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
