Hopefully an easy one

Recommended Posts

I am trying to get a simple system to give me an image from a single camera directly to a small monitor. I had this working when I bought the hardware but can't get it to work now. See the pic for current set up. I have used one or both power supplies and tried both AV1 and AV2 with both yellow connectors. The monitor has power and reports No Signal.

 

Help??

Hi. I can just make out in your picture that you have power going from power supply to your monitor.

 

I see you have 3 red going to connector but I can only see two black. You don't have a neutral from the camera.

The camera only has a yellow(video) and red(power). The monitor has two yellow, a blue (not using this) and a red and black. I hooked up a connector to the red and black for the monitor to provide power from the power supply. I hope that clarifies.

Hi. That means your camera has no power

 

You will have yellow with a braid around it and a red

 

Yellow goes to + side of BNC

 

The braid goes to - side of BNC and also your neutral

 

 

Just as a quick test run a wire from power black and touch the BNC you should get a image

 

The purple wire is to reverse the image .......used if using camera as a reversing camera on a car.

I have powered the camera separately with a power supply to the red wire as seen on the left side of the original image.

I bridged a wire across there as you suggested. Still no image. Is there a way to tell which yellow connector on the monitor is AV1 and which is AV2?
