Do you have the option of switching the unit to a FORWARD Display, or must it always be in "Rear View Mirror" REVERSE mode designed for backing up?

It's wherever you aim the camera and the direction you need to travel that makes the difference. There is no "reverse mode".

I'm assuming you are referring to the mirror conundrum as my rear view camera on my Ford is in real time. The SH02 is real time-point the lens at the hitch (or whatever) and the image on the receiver is identical. I took the video out cable and with an audio adapter was then able to use it as an AV in plug into a portable dvd player or even laptop for a larger display. Swift Hitch should update their video out or make their receiver the size of a cell phone display at least.

For me the mirror is just fine, although I have to manually turn of the light for the right side which is where I am able to view the camera. I was unable to have it do this manually when I shifted to drive after backing up. I hope this is clear enough for you to understand.

I have hooked up them mirror, and it works great. It is easier to look at the rear view mirror when your backing up and then it goes off and you have the regular mirror.

I don't think switching the wirse will make it reverse. Don't know how to slow it down. Sorry

You have to connect camera to reverse lights for power and to switch it on when in reverse. The monitor has to be connected to power.

On any radio set with video cable input connected from camera... There is usually an automatic swtching of the screen to show the video input from the rear of vehicle when you are on reverse. However some cheaper radios require you switch to a video screen manually by selecting the proper screen. Double check all required electrical connections and then check your manual for further directions of still not working and all connections were good. If not done... Make sure the video cable is connected to the radio.

Yes,you could have a try.One customer do like this:"hang the monitor on the rearview mirror. Installation instructions are sparse at best, but I wired it up before actually installing it to ensure I knew what wires went where. The blue wire is the backup wire. Connect it to the backup light for backing monitor only. I connected it to the license plate light to function as rearview and to remind me to turn my lights on when I travel." and so on

Only if you wire it differently. As designed it is wired to the back up light circuit. It would only work as a rear view mirror going forward or backward not both. I suppose it could be wired to both the reverse and forward circuits if you really wanted to.

You can turn off the display but still have the device record. It is actually what I like to do as I find the live video feed as a distraction while driving.

No. You will see the bright daylight rear view through the mirror, so that the LCD image will be distracted unless you face-down the mirror to view the back seat instead. I think this is a common problem for all back mirror-LCDs. I now always use it with face-down, as I use the mirror only when I backing up the car.

If your monitor is not reversing the picture then you must have received the rear view camera. Check to see if your monitor has a setting for flipping the video. The front view camera I received worked as specified. There is not a way to reverse the camera image except to flip it with a monitor.

A lot of times it depends on the screen. I have a forward facing camera, and three rear facing. On the rear view screen, I do not have to use mirroring option. The image is correct. I also have a digital quad processor, which is what you use to connect multiple cameras for security to see them all at once. That unit I have to turn on the mirror option in order for the recording to come out correct.

It requires a video input connection and screen. Do you have a reverse back up camera?

NO! either use the backup wire sensor so the monitor activates when in reverse, or wire direct to fuse box and monitor stays on.

Hi C. There is a reverse(rewind) button(also fast forward,stop, and pause) to turn back tape to certain spot. But if you are talking about auto-reverse - where the tape automatically goes to the next side when first side is finished - no it does not have that. There is no counter either so when you do reverse, you just have to stop and go till you find what you want - it's a nice little recorder/player for the price,mine has a slight humming in the background when I recorded voices, but didnt bother me much - I have this and have written a review(on jan 10th/10) with feature details - it may be of some help Laurie

I'm pretty sure you can set your stereo to a front view ( not mirrored like a reverse application). All you need is to hook up a switched 12 v supply. Depending on the head unit you may need to switch to the av input, but some will switch automatically when a signal is sensed. Hope this helps
