Pairing a BC 50 Backup Camera with a Garmin Navigation Device

Before you can connect to a camera you must enable the Wi‑Fi® setting on your Garmin® navigation device.

The BC™ 50 wireless backup camera is compatible with some Garmin navigation devices with Android™. Go to garmin.com/bc50 for more information about device compatibility.

You can pair up to four BC 50 wireless backup cameras with your compatible Garmin navigation device.

  1. Update your navigation device to the latest software.

    Your device may not support the BC 50 camera without the latest software. For more information about updating the software, see the owner's manual for your navigation device.

  2. Turn on the Garmin navigation device, and bring it within 3 m (10 ft.) of the camera.
  3. Place the vehicle in reverse to power the camera.
  4. Select App drawer symbol > Tools > Cameras > Add > Garmin BC50.
  5. Select your BC 50 camera from the list of available cameras.
  6. Position the guidance lines using the on-screen arrows.

    If the camera or vehicle is not ideally positioned to complete the guidance line alignment, you can complete the alignment later.

  7. Select Save.

After you complete the pairing process with a camera for the first time, the camera and navigation device connect automatically when they are turned on and within range.
