4. Operation
(1) The screen only works when it has video signal going into it. When AV1 input receives signal,
the screen turns on to AV1. When the signal is removed, the screen turns off.
(2) When AV2 receives video signal, the screen powers on and switches to AV 2, regardless of
whether there is signal going into AV1. When signal is removed from AV2, either the screen will
switch to AV1 if there is signal present there or switch off there is no signal.
(3) The screen can adjust its brightness according to the ambient light condition. When ambient light
is strong, the screen will be brighter. Similarly, the screen will decrease its brightness to protect
your
eyesight and so it isn’t too bright while driving when the ambient light is low.
5. General Instruction
This rear view mirror monitor is designed for car rear view purpose, which can work with a reversing
camera (NTSC or PAL) to show the real-time image behind your car. When the reverse gear is
engaged, the rear view system automatically starts to work, and when the monitor is powered off, the
mirror functions just like a normal rear view mirror as the monitor is hidden and almost invisible.
6. Compass & Temperature
Temperature Setup
Included are 2 thermistors, an In and a Out. Run the In thermistor to a location on the interior of the
vehicle that is exposed to the main cabin, and run the Out thermistor to a protected location on the
exterior of the vehicle. Choose locations for both thermistors that are not in direct sunlight.
The temperature display will alternate between inside and outside readings.
Compass Setup
Before the compass can be used it must be calibrated. A long button press enters the compass
calibration. Next, drive the car in one full circle to calibrate. Another long button press will end the
calibration. If the calibration failed, repeat the operation.
