Need help powering this Screen

Judging by the proportion of the screen to that girls hand with the stylus, that thing looks way bigger than 7"!

lol

Thank you so very very much.

Now all i need to do is go down to jaycar and grab a simple wiring loom and i'm good to go.

I really appreciate it!

What is the point of the ACCesory wire?

Sorry I cant help with the blinking problem, if you need any other help though let me know!

The ACC is connected to an Accessory or Key On power line in a car.
This acts as a trigger, preventing the unit from staying on while the car is not running. Key Off = Monitor Off. Avoids a dead battery in the morning.

This thread just saved my tail! Had one of these sitting here after nearly 7 years, and I had no idea what was what. Thanks so much chofo1979, where ever you are....
