Title: Reverse image on 7" TFT Monitor
Post by: Michael & Jackie on October 24, 2016, 06:04:00 pm
How do you switch the image on the monitor?

Last I saw it done, a Tech pushed two switches at the same time......but I have not been able to repeat that.

So for now, the camera and the tank monitors all show backward images.  I can get by that way, but really now good, numbers are of course reversed, so instead of reading outside it is 74 degrees, it looks kinda like 47 though the numbers are reversed, you can make out it a backward 7 and 4.  Just need to turn the screen around!

I thought push the R and L arrows simultaneously but that not work.  The Mode button only giving me ways to adjust the color, brightness and rotate the entire screen.  But not reverse the mirror or tanks readings

Mike,

  I recently installed a 7" TFT and camera for the system. Much better viewing, and night vision as well!

I connected the camera directly and the tank monitor through the box. I used the original power switch to turn on/off the system.

I have the issue of one input (the backup camera) will be set correctly, and when I press the first button on the left, it switches input to the monitor (input #2). BUT, the monitor is backwards. The second button from the left on my unit switches the view to opposite. So when I switch, I have to hit the 2nd button twice to get the other input to show correctly.

Hope this helps!
