Subject: You could but the speed controlled input Author: saft6luck : member since February, 2007 : 191 posts Posted on: 2008-04-24 02:02:35

uses a 'latch' to keep the status and switches off when you reach a certain speed. So you would keep your backup camera on while you drive forward for some time ...

As Jochen said its video input is used to switch on the front camera and this is activated using the 'headlight flasher' (for a short time).
