Monitor Wiring –
 Place a 10A fuse between the red lead (pin C) of the monitor and a switched positive power
lead on the vehicle. Attach the black lead (pin A) from the monitor base to the vehicle ground.
 The white lead (pin B) is for an optional “Stow Indicator” which could be attached to a relay or
LED supplied by the OEM. The circuit switches in a ground, and is limited to 250 mA of current
when the monitor is in a non-stowed position.
 All control functions are sent to the monitor via an encoded RF signal from the RF controller,
and no control wiring is needed.
Panel Mount RF Controllers –
 Using the Panel Mount RF Controller template in the Component Mounting Templates section,
mark the panel cutout and mounting screw locations.
 Cut a rectangular clearance opening and drill four (4) 7/32” holes.
 Insert fixed RF controller case through the panel cutout. Secure the unit to the panel with four (4)
#10-32 screws. The length of the screws should be the panel thickness plus 3/16”. The screws
supplied are ¼” in length. Apply Loctite 242 or equivalent to screw threads before tightening
them.
 The controller antenna is to be mounted using the 10’ antenna cable provided. Locate one of
the antennas outside the vehicle compartment, and in a position that provides the least
obstructed line of sight to the monitor’s antenna.
 Place a 1A fuse between the red lead of the RF controller and a switched positive power lead on
the vehicle. Attach the black lead from the monitor base to the vehicle ground.
 All control functions are sent to the monitor via an encoded RF signal from the RF Controller.
OEM RF Transmitter –
 Place a 1A fuse between the red lead of the transmitter and
a switched positive power lead on the vehicle. Attach the
black lead from the monitor base to the vehicle ground.
 Connect all of the switch commons to the ground (black)
connection.
 Connect each function to a corresponding switch. To
operate the function, close function’s switch to ground. Any
combination of pushbuttons or toggle switches can be
used.
 Power indication can be created by attaching an LED and
proper resistance between the VCC (+3V) and ground
connections. Max rating for the VCC connection is 250mA.
 The transmitter’s antenna is to be mounted using the 10’
antenna cable provided. Locate one of the antennas
outside the vehicle compartment, and in a position that
provides the least obstructed line of sight to the monitor’s
antenna.
