Vision Systems
TMC motorhomes may be equipped with a rear and/or side
vision system. If equipped, the installation includes a rear-
view camera mounted along the top of the motorhome’s rear
valance and an in-dash camera monitor (usually the dash
radio screen). Some installations will also include side-view
cameras. Camera signals are fed to the dash radio/camera
monitor and appear when the gear selector is placed in reverse,
or for side-view cameras, actuated by the turn signals. Some
Class C installations include a camera monitor in the cab
rear-view mirror.
To operate:
1. For the camera monitor to function, the dash radio
must be ON. It is powered by the auxiliary battery(ies),
therefore, the Master battery switch must also be ON.
It is normal to keep the Master battery switch in the
ON position while traveling. Doing so also allows
the vehicle’s charging system to charge the auxiliary
battery(ies) while the engine is running.
2. When the gear selector is placed in REVERSE, the radio
display automatically changes to the rear-view camera
monitor, allowing for a rearward view via the camera
and monitor system.
3. When the gear selector is moved out of REVERSE, the
camera will automatically turn o and the radio display
will revert to the previous screen.
