If it's a Furrion, the monitor is a stand alone cordless system. In order for the cameras to be active, the running lights (headlights) of the truck will need to be turned on so the trailer lights are on. When headlights are off, the camera's turn off. They are wired through the existing outside driving lights on the trailer. It's a sweet system though.
The monitor is a cordless monitor, plugged into a powered USB port. It's active whenever plugged into the power port and "paired" with each monitor. Very easy to do.
More than likely, you'll need to purchase the monitor (sold separate), if it does not come with the camper.
We have the 7 inch monitor and only one camera, the rear observation camera which stays active all the time. You'll want the "observation" monitor, not the "back-up" only monitor. I'm hoping for Christmas, Mrs. Santa Clause will get Mr. Santa Clause the 4 side cameras.
