Can i enable the 3 video ports with the Faultmate Vehicle Explorer and use them for a rear cam or a DVB-T without going thru the Diagnostic Menu? I found a lot of options in the Vehicle Explorer but i am not sure which one I have to use.
Does anyone (Wiggs ) know if the Sat Nav screen accept PAL inputs - via one of the connectors on the back.
I want to connect a CCD rear view camera mounted on the caravan.

Yes ... But when you go in the diagnostics to activate it .. You would need to press the pal / NTSC button on bottom left of the screen to select it ... As the default signal is NTSCG4 Gone ...but not forgotten

So if i understand this correctly, to view the DVD/camera ect once connected via the made up cable. you need to go into the diagnostic menu?
How do you go into diagnostic menu on a FFRR vogue td6 touch screen nav?

Thks wiggs for the above info. Works like a treat
One more question on the menu in "video setting"
Iv got 3 boxes appear, one " companion input" the other "reverse camera"
And last box "tv/dvd".
Now on the "companion" and "tv/dvd" inputs it states "fitted". I have a tv tuner so that answers why tv/dvd is stating fitted but what would be the companion input? The only other thing i have is the venture cam, could it be that?
Last of all if i fit a reverse camera in the camera input will it come up on screen automatically when reverse is selected?
