Backup camera on 27rr

Evening all, new owner of a grey wolf 27rr toy hauler. I see the factory installed backup camera above the back door, but can't figure out how to make it work.
The generic owners manual blows, does anyone. Know if there is a dedicated owners manual for the 27rr?
Thanx for any help

It's probably not a backup camera, but it is the mounting designed to hold the Furrion camera. Lots of good and bad reviews about that camera (mostly bad from people I know).

Backup/observation cameras

I am relatively new to the travel trailer world. Recently purchased a Flagstaff Classic 831 RESS with which I am very pleased. The unit is factory prewired for the Furrion camera system, but I have read many comments about this system which leave much to be desired. I would like to hear from others who have the FOS48 system installed and their opinions, please.

Smile Backup camera

Do yourself a favor. Go to Order Your Wireless Backup Camera from Tadibrothers Today!. Look at their various cameras. Then call and ask for Eddie he is a expert on these. Very easy to hookup and you can do it wireless with no distortion in view while traveling. Did mine works awesome.

I have the Furrion model 48 observation Camera. My Wildcat initially came with the Furrion model 12 backup camera. The use identical mountings. If yours did not come with the actual camera, you can order either a 12 or a 48 and it's a simple remove 4 screws, the dummy cover drops off and you plug in and use the same 4 screws to set the camera in place. The monitor is wireless and Furrion usually ships them already paired to the camera (if not, pairing is simple).

The 12 is fine for backing up only. If you want to see who's behind you as you drive down the road, you want the model with 48 in its model number. The 48 has a faster processor and a clearer camera.

I am happy with the 48 and with Furrion's customer support. They swapped my 12 for a 48 for free.
