 |
|
I am trying to install a forward looking video camera in my Bearhawk cowling to help with taxiing, its pretty blind over the cowling. I purchased a backup camera that installs in a 9/16" hole. I have the Garmin G3X, the video connection on the screens is a BNC connector. Supported formats are NTSC, PAL, and SECAM. Garmin says to connect the video with RG179 coax. The camera video connector has a single composite video plug with a red 20 ga pigtail coming out the back of the plug. I cut the connector off one end and found that the cable contains 3 24ga wires, white, black and red. I would like to install a BNC connector at the camera so it can be disconnected for cowl removal. Then use a coax cable to connect to the G3X. I have no idea how to wire this. I have $17 invested in the camera, if someone knows of a small camera that comes wired with a BNC connector, I am all over it.

I used this adapter on the back of the G3X Touch display to connect the backup camera's RCA plug to the G3X's BNC connector.

It sounds like the camera you are using is similar to the one I used:
