Planning the Installation
Before you begin, consider the following points:
•Line of Sight: For optimum reception, place the transmitter so that it is level with the receiver/monitor in the tow vehicle, preferably at window level, allowing the signal to transmit through glass (see back page).
•Accessing a Power Source: The power source you choose must be ON for the transmitter and camera to power up. Consider using clearance lights or running lights as a source of power, keeping in mind that your lights will need to be on for the power to travel to the transmitter/camera.
•Routing Wires: When routing the camera extension cables from the camera, choose a route that will protect the cable from sharp objects and debris that could damage the cable.

Installing the Transmitter (WLO24TX)
1.Choose an appropriate location for the transmitter.
2.Drill a 1" hole to route the power and extension cables through.
3.Run the camera extension cable from the camera to the transmitter.
4.Run the power and ground from the power source to the transmitter.
5.Attach the transmitter to a clean/dry surface using the 3M adhesive tape ring (supplied).

IMPORTANT NOTE:
This system operates at 2.4GHz and may interfere with or be interfered by devices that operate on the same frequency (i.e. cordless phones, garage door openers, wireless security systems). Encountering short periods of interference while driving is considered normal operation. If you experience severe interference or picture distortion, change the transmitting/receiving channel (see "Choosing a Transmission Channel). If that does not improve the performance, look for an interference source near the vehicle and turn it off, keeping in mind that the interference source could be another vehicle with the same observation system.
Choosing a Transmission Channel
The transmitter and receiver can operate on one of four different channels. The channel switches for the transmitter are located behind the rubber plug on the bottom outside of the transmitter. The channel switches for the receiver are located on the side of the receiver.
