AVS RM70CQUAD / RM90CQUAD
The AVS RM70CQUAD/RM90CQUAD can display up to 4 cameras in a split screen, either any channel full screen, 2/3/4-way split.
The channels can be switched manually using the buttons on the front panel or by remote or can be controlled by each channel’s input wire
e.g. connect the blue wire to the left turn indicator trigger wire and mount camera 3 on the left side of the vehicle. When the left indicator
turns on the monitor will display the left side camera. Do not connect any input control wire to permanent power as this will lock the
display to that channel and may damage the monitor.
