3. Installation Instructions
Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance of your wireless backup camera. This camera is designed for 12-24V DC power systems.
3.1 Pre-Installation Checklist:
- Ensure your Foxpark wireless monitor is compatible and ready for pairing.
- Gather necessary tools: screwdriver, wire strippers, electrical tape, zip ties (not included).
- Confirm the vehicle's power system is 12-24V DC.
3.2 Wiring the Camera:
- Identify a suitable power source. For rear view, connect the camera's power supply to your vehicle's reverse lights. For front or side view, connect to a constant 12-24V DC power source or an accessory power source (e.g., headlights).
- Carefully strip the insulation from the power wires and connect them securely to the vehicle's power source. Ensure proper polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative).
- Insulate all connections with electrical tape to prevent short circuits and protect against moisture.
3.3 Mounting the Camera:
- Typically, the camera is mounted near the license plate. Secure the camera bracket using appropriate fasteners.
- Adjust the camera's viewing angle. The W11 CAM offers a 30° adjustment range. Position the camera to achieve the desired field of view, ensuring no obstructions.

4. Operation Guide
After successful installation and pairing, your Foxpark W11 CAM is ready for operation.
4.1 Powering On/Off:
The camera powers on automatically when its connected power source is active (e.g., when the vehicle is in reverse or when headlights are on, depending on wiring). It will power off when the power source is deactivated.
4.2 Monitor Functions:
Your Foxpark monitor allows for various adjustments to optimize the camera's display:
- Brightness, Contrast, Saturation: Adjust these settings on your monitor to suit ambient light conditions and personal preference.
- Horizontal and Vertical Flip: If the image appears inverted or mirrored, use the monitor's flip function to correct the orientation.
- DIY Parking Lines: Access the monitor's settings to customize the parking guidelines, including their position and width, to accurately match your vehicle and parking habits.
4.3 Night Vision:
The camera automatically activates its super night vision feature in low-light conditions, providing clear, vivid color images. This ensures visibility and safety even in dark environments.
