    Hi team, Happy New Year! I have a reverse camera installed, however I would like to add another to assist hitching a trailer. This one does not need to be "reverse triggered". Is this possible? Can I use one of the AV in or camera leads on the back of the unit? If so, how would I configure it to view it when required? As always, I appreciate your advice and assistance..

      RioG You can input the camera signal via the video input in Zone A and view the image in the device's AUX program. My suggestion would be that you also add a SWC button and in Settings - Square Control Learning - Learn as AUX Program, so that you can always press the button to view camera images.

            dudu-lai thanks for that, I'll have a go at it this afternoon. When you say zone 'a', where is that?

                  dudu-lai Ok, I've got my reverse camera plugged into the "Cam In" on the rear of my DUDU7, that works ok. I've just wired up the 2nd camera and plugged it into the "CVBS In" and opened the "AUX" app - no good, no signal. Am I on the right track? There are no other video in cables from the DUDU7 so not sure what I'm missing 🤦

                      RioG Is there power to the second camera? Can I see an image when I plug it into the reverse rearview input and put it in reverse gear?

                          Both cameras work when individually swapped out with the "CAMVIN" plug of the unit, none work on Aux when I plug them into the "CVBS In" plug. All are powered. Not sure which I put is used by the Aux app-neither of them are picked up in the app. 1st photo shows the working reverse camera 1, 2nd shows the "CVBS in" plug that doesn't show anything in the app.

                              RioG вы запускаете приложение AUX в ручную? и не видите изображения?

                                  Is this the program? You can try connecting the CVBS IN to the blue plug on the back of the unit, unplugging it and reinserting it, pressing firmly all around

                                        dudu-lai yes that's the app. There is no blue plug on the back of the unit though

                                                      dudu-lai that's plugged into and has the CVBS attached and plugged into the camera, still no good

                                                          Please try replacing the A-area cable, or replace the other connector to the CVBS IN connector.
