Connecting cameras to chartplotter

[sunquest]

Can someone advise how to feed two cameras into a Garmin 4012 which has only one video socket. I also have a 4012 at the lower helm but access could be difficult. Thanks in advance.

Thanks Jrudge. Simple when you know how! Previously I read the manual and did not notice the two input cables, I only saw the video socket.

Re your second point the network is not likely to transmit video to the lower helm so if you need it there you will need a splitter and more wires.

However depending on the camera you are mounting and how often you drive ( and park) from the lower helm it is not likely to be worth the effort.
