7" Advanced Menu System Heavy Duty Monitor for Reversing and Rear View Cameras
High Resolution Image Quality - Our 7 inch stand/dash mount monitor display gives a good quality image thanks to it's 800x480 pixel digital hi-res LCD panel. This resolution can handle even the highest resolution of traditional CVBS signal reversing cameras (CVBS signal still makes up 95%+ of all existing reversing camera systems). Numbers can be misleading, as we have seen lots of poor quality panels with the same resolution, but with poor performance. Trust us, check out the photo that a customer has sent in, then make your decision with the knowledge that you are buying from a long established, trusted, reputable firm who keep things consistent, and support their customers for life.
Advanced Menu System - A lot of reversing camera displays have very basic functions, usually just the colour/contrast/brightness. This menu system has the ability to add guidelines, number the guidelines with a distance, choose to say if the measurement is displayed as M or Ft, individually change settings for each channel e.g mirror one channel but not the other, and set interval mode so the monitor flicks between both channels at a set number of seconds. We don't just leave you to figure things out yourself, we issue a booklet to guide you through all of the functions, why not read it before you purchase by heading to the PDF instructions tab of this listing. We are about keeping long term products, consistency, and support for life, which includes providing detailed support material such as this.
Ability to Add Guidelines to Image in Reverse - You can set the monitor up so that it displays guidelines when you select reverse gear. These lines can be adjusted in width, and along both the vertical axis and horizontal axis. Numbers can be added, and choice of imperial or metric measurements. See pages 5 to 6 of our comprehensive instruction manual for the 7 inch reversing camera monitor for more details on the guidelines.
Most Popular Size Reversing Camera Display- The 7 inch displays are the most popular size for reversing camera monitors. Commonly seen fitted to motorhomes and vans.
2 Channels for Reverse, Rear View, Side View Cameras - The monitor wiring harness is fitted with 2x 4 pin aviation connectors. This gives space for a rear view, and reversing camera to be fitted. Change between channels by either using the CAM button on the screen, the remote control, or the reverse trigger wires.
Trigger Wire for automatic channel changing e.g. when in reverse - This model has a trigger wire that is linked to channel 2 of the monitor. You do not have to use any trigger wires to be able to watch a camera, but if you did want the monitor to auto switch to a channel, or to turn the monitor on if the monitor is usually off, you can connect the trigger wire up to a power source e.g. reverse light feed (the most common setup). This gives you hands free convenience when it comes to the reversing camera system functioning.
Full Function Remote Control - We provide a remote control that allows you access to all the menu functions and changing channels from a distance. These functions can also be achieved on the monitor by using the buttons.
Two Year Guarantee and Lifetime Support - This monitor should last a very long time without any issue. We guarantee it to be free from faults for two years. After two years we are able to offer low cost repairs to keep your system in good condition and avoid extra time or expense installing all new components. We also keep good stock of spare parts such as wiring harnesses should you decide to take the monitor out of the vehicle with you when you sell your vehicle but leave the wiring where it is.
Alternative bracket options - The monitor has a rear channel that allows our alternative monitor brackets to be installed. This choice includes quick release, ceiling mount, heavy duty, and temporary suction mount brackets. You can choose to add a discounted price bracket with this monitor using the drop down selection box menu - see monitor bracket options tab for more details on each type.
4 Pin Channel Inputs and RCA adaptor options - As standard this monitor will come with 3x 4 pin inputs. This is the favourite connector type for the reversing camera industry allowing the monitor to power the cameras - avoiding CANBUS issues and allowing for an easy install. We also have the option to add RCA adaptors, these short adaptors screw to the inputs and change the input type to a yellow RCA socket input. This is ideal if you are replacing a monitor with an older RCA Phono input.
Additional Monitor Bracket Options
To add a discounted price additional monitor bracket to your product bundle, please see the descriptions/photos below. We also have a YouTube video showing the various bracket options below.
ACC035 - "Butterfly" Bracket option
So called because the base looks like a pair of butterfly wings. Fitted with an adhesive pad on the base, peel the protective layer off and stick to your clean dashboard. Additional screws can be used if you feel it needs reinforcement. The square nut fits in to the channel of your monitor, whilst there is a screw to the rear of the bracket that will then screw in to the square washer until it locks the two together.
ACC041 Quick Release Bracket option
The quick release bracket is one of the most popular bracket options. The bracket has a removable mounting plate that attaches to the rear channel of the monitor. This plate can then slide in to the bracket that is mounted to the dashboard and locks. To release, simply pull back the thumb switch at the rear, then slide the monitor up and out. Our monitors have disconnect points around a foot away from the monitor to allow it to disconnect. A bracket that makes initial install a little quicker, as well as allowing more adjustability in positioning of the display. Adhesive pad base for sticking to clean dashboard with bendable feet.
ACC705B - Heavy Duty Rear Mount Bracket Option
The most sturdy of all of our rear mounted dash mounts, all metal design. Monitor slides on to the bracket, which has a rear adjustment rotational wheel to lock the monitor to the bracket. Self adhesive base, with bendable "feet" for curvy dashboards. You can add screws if required.
ACC038 - Suction Mount Bracket Option
Only designed for temporary mounting eg. moving a monitor from one vehicle to another. This bracket has strong suction, people are often shocked by how strong it is. We use these when we road test new monitors for temporary mounting. A ball joint allows for good adjustment to give the monitor the optimum viewing angle.
ACC20540 - "Banana" Ceiling Mount Swan Neck Bracket Option
The ceiling mount bracket is a very sturdy and adjustable bracket mount for the monitor in this kit. Two screws secure this to the ceiling or plastic trim of the vehicle. The other side attaches to the channel on the back of the monitor and secures with a twist of the locking wheel. Release the tension by turning the hand screw knob on the left to allow the ball joint to rotate clockwise and anticlockwise, or up/down/left/right. These have been a very popular option since they were introduced.
