Hello all, I am going to contact Haloview but first wanted to benefit from the knowledge here.
I purchased the Haloview MC7611 1080P High Definition 7" Digital Wired Backup Camera System, an extra camera and cables. I wanted wired for the resolution and frame rate with no interference. It is installed without use of the turn signal or reverse wires.
I have a perfectly good 3 camera system that came with the Tiffin and I intend to keep using that. I wanted to add the two new cameras to:
1. Provide a rear view well beyond the toad. Sometimes when in high merging areas I use the middle lane but must know when a semi is coming up on me so I can get in the right lane as they cannot use the left lane for passing.
2. This rear view does not go away when I use the turn signals.
3. The second new camera is to shoot sideways to help me stop the coach at exactly the right spot when getting gas. My fill is on the rear and requires this.
Here is the camera setup on the rear ladder:
Here is the dash setup mounted above my RVI tire patrol/brake system. I just toggle the select button to go to the gas pump view.
I am pleased with this system except for one thing. I went to get gas today and found a problem. With my polarized sun glasses, the Haloview is dark. I cannot make out anything on it. The original Tiffin camera looks fine as well as the RVI system. With regular non-shades I can see the Haloview fine. The same Haloview problem occurs for my wife's polarized sun glasses. We do not have cheap online prescription sunglasses, both of these are expensive and from the eye Dr's office. We need polarized for our boat use on the water.
This is how it looks:
The brightness is set to 100% and auto dim is off. Changing the screen tilt has no effect.
Now for the weird part. If I am using the shades and turn my head 90 degrees, I see the Haloview fine:
Have any of you noticed this effect with camera screens or could it be a Haloview problem?
thanks for any ideas,
Fred
