Dual Files
9
When recording, both a high and low quality video are saved. The smaller file size of the low quality
video means it is quicker to transfer and edit within the app. If a Rear-Cam is attached, and Dual
Files is switched ON, High and Low resolution files will be saved for the Rear view as well, giving you a
total of 4 files (Front High, Front Low, Rear High, Rear Low)
Note: Recording both high and low resolution versions will take up more space on the memory card.
Options: On and Off
Default: On
Time Lapse
10
Time Lapse recording is a technique whereby the frequency at which file frames are captured (frame
rate) is lower than that used when playing back the recording. Time Lapse recording can be considered
the opposite of slow motion, as when the recording is played back time appears to be moving faster.
For example, a recording taken over three minutes would be played back as a 30 second movie.
Notes: - When Time Lapse is turned On, Recording History will be turned Off.
- Time lapse is considered as a leisure activity setting and not for use in order to collect evidence
in the case of an incident. Time Lapse should be turned off for normal driving conditions.
Options: 3 minutes, 30 minutes, Off
Default: Off
Number Plate
11
Input your vehicle's number plate to add a number plate stamp to your recordings.
Default: Off
G Sensor
12
Turn off or adjust the sensitivity of the internal G Sensor. The G Sensor detects forces which will
protect the current recording in the event of a collision. The higher the G Sensor sensitivity, the less
force will be needed to trigger automatic file protection.
Options: Off, Low, Medium, High
Default: Medium
Setup Settings
Screen Saver
13
Turn on the screen saver function to shut down the screen after 30 seconds without any interaction.
With the screen off, recording will continue as normal. Touch the display to re-open the screen.
You can also choose for the Screen Saver to show your current speed (GPS signal required).
Options: On and Off and Speed Display
Default: Off
Alerts
14
Turn On/Off the ascending/descending beeps that sound when a recording starts/stops, the alarm
that sounds when battery is low or there is an SD Card error, and the chime that sounds when a
file is protected.
Options: On and Off
Default: Off
Recording History
15
In some territories, there are laws prohibiting the amount of footage your Dash Cam should
hold. The default setting is 'Maximum', where your Dash Cam records and stores videos without
restriction.
If 'Minimum' is selected you will first be asked to Format (wipe) your SD Card; be sure to back
up any files you wish to keep before doing this. If you choose not to Format the SD Card, no action
is taken and the function will not be activated.
Once the SD Card has been formatted, the file recording length will be automatically set to
1 minute. The Dash Cam will now be limited to storing only 4 unprotected files at any one time.
When a new file is recorded it will overwrite the oldest file, keeping the number of stored files
at the maximum of 4.
As protected files (i.e. recordings of incidents) cannot be overwritten, these do not count
towards the 4 file maximum, and are stored to the capacity of the SD Card.
When Recording History is turned On, Time Lapse will be turned Off.
Options: Maximum and Minimum
Default: Maximum
Parking Mode
16
When Parking Mode has been turned on, the Dash Cam enters standby mode when the 12Vdc
supply has been turned OFF (typically removing your ignition key).
The Dash Cam will also enter standby mode if no physical movement is detected for 5 minutes,
this is designed to allow use of a permanent 12Vdc supply, i.e hard-wire kit.
See page 6 for more details.
Should physical movement of the vehicle be detected, the Dash Cam will power on and start
recording a 30 second protected video. If no further physical movement is detected then the
Dash Cam will return to standby mode, if physical
movement is detected subsequently, then the
camera will continue to record normally,
i.e. driving once more.
Options: On and Off
Default: Off
Please note there will be a delay between the trigger event
and the start of the recording while the Dash Cam turns on.
