Main Functions

Loop Recording

When you insert a memory card and power up the E2 dash cam, it automatically starts loop recording. The length of each video clip is determined by your chosen loop recording setting, and clips are saved in the normal video folder. As the folder fills up to 70% of its capacity, the camera will begin overwriting the oldest files first, ensuring continuous recording without manual intervention.

  1. The loop recording feature's efficiency relies heavily on the memory card's speed. To ensure smooth functionality, it's advisable to format the memory card frequently, preventing issues like file clutter or card wear that can impede the recording process.
  2. It's important to periodically review the videos captured by the loop recording to ensure that no critical footage is unintentionally overwritten.
  3. Disabling the loop recording feature will also deactivate the video lock function.
  4. When loop recording is not active, videos will record in 20-minute segments. The recording process will halt once the memory card reaches full capacity.

Event Recording

The camera's event recording is activated by the G-sensor (Gravity Sensor). This function can operate automatically or can be manually engaged. In certain driving conditions, the camera will automatically secure footage for event recording, or you can choose to lock it for event documentation yourself.
Basic Operation - Event Recording

To manually secure the current video, simply press the power ( ) button. If you wish to take photos during this time, the power ( ) button can be pressed multiple times. Subsequently, videos are saved in the event video folder, while photos go to the photo folder. Event videos are also automatically secured when an impact or significant vibration is detected by the dash cam, and these too are stored in the event video folder.

Note that during an event recording, you can take still images by pressing the power ( ) button. Once the recording concludes, the video is saved in the emergency video folder, and any photos taken are stored in the photo folder.
Basic Operation - How to find recorded event video

Additional Information

  1. The likelihood of the automatic event recording being activated is tied to the set sensitivity of the G-sensor. The higher the sensitivity, the more probable it is for the event recording to be triggered.
  2. Event videos can occupy up to 30% of the memory card's capacity. Once this limit is reached, new recordings may overwrite the oldest event videos. It's advisable to regularly transfer your event videos off the device to prevent data loss.
  3. The lock recording feature will not engage during loop recording or while time-lapse recording is in progress.

Switching Displaying Between the Front and Rear Camera

Switching Displaying Between Front and Rear Camera
To switch the view between the front and rear camera you can simply press the up ( ) button. There are four modes:

Enhanced Night Vision for Parking Mode

To improve the safety of nighttime parking, we leverage the camera's advanced lens capabilities along with cutting-edge low-light night vision technology. This enhances visibility in parking mode. The feature is active by default but activates only when you switch to parking mode, ensuring that it does not interfere with regular recording.
Using Enhanced Night Vision for Parking Mode

Parking Mode

(Inapplicable During Time-lapse Recording)
Parking Mode functions as a surveillance mechanism, offering various monitoring modes to suit different parking scenarios. Upon enabling Parking Mode, recording can be initiated in two ways: either wait for 5 minutes for automatic activation or long-press the down () button to start immediately.

Important Considerations:

  1. To ensure optimal functionality of the camera in parking mode, it is advised to use a hardwiring kit or a reliable and constant power source.
  2. If the internal temperature of the car reaches 60°C, it is advisable to switch off the camera to prevent any irregular performance due to overheating.
  3. Time-lapse recording and features specific to parking mode, such as collision detection, motion detection, low bitrate and low framerate recording, can only be used one at a time. Activating one will automatically deactivate the others.
  4. Videos captured in parking mode (including Collision Detection, Motion Detection, Low Bitrate, and Low Framerate modes) are stored in the standard video folder. To avoid overwriting these files during loop recording, make sure to check and manually save important files to prevent loss.

Collision Detection
When you activate collision detection on the dash cam, a collision icon ( ) appears on the display, signaling that the camera is in collision detection mode. You have the option to set the sensitivity of this function from 1 to 5 based on your preference and the vehicle's environment.
Collision Detection Function Operation - Step 1

Once collision detection is activated, if the camera does not detect any movement for 5 minutes—part of the camera's quick-start feature—it will engage collision detection mode. A collision icon ( ) will pop up in the center of the screen, and if no further activity is detected, the camera will power down to conserve energy. If the camera is jostled or detects a shock, it will turn back on and record for a minute.
Collision Detection Function Operation - Step 2

Note: If the camera experiences repeated impacts while in collision detection mode, it will revert to normal recording mode and reset the 5-minute countdown. This feature helps to ensure that the camera does not stay in collision detection mode indefinitely in busy environments.

Motion Detection
Activating motion detection on the dash cam triggers the display of a motion icon ( ) on the screen, indicating that the camera is monitoring for any movement. This mode offers three sensitivity settings: low, medium, and high, which correspond to detection distances of 2 meters, 4 meters, and 6 meters, respectively.
Motion Detection Function Operation - Step 1

Upon activating motion detection mode, the motion detection icon will appear in the center of the screen. The dash cam will switch to standby mode if no motion is detected within three minutes. During the video recording process, the camera automatically starts recording if it detects movement or vibration. The E2 model features a prerecording capability that ensures footage is captured just before motion detection starts. Once recording triggered by motion detection ends, the camera will save the prerecorded footage to the regular video folder.
Motion Detection Function Operation - Step 2

Note: The motion detection feature is operational only when the camera is powered on. Turning off the camera will deactivate the motion detection mode.

Low Bitrate Recording
When activated, the low bitrate recording mode is indicated by a 1080P 15 FPS icon ( ) on the lower right of the screen for 1080P selections, or a 720P 15 FPS icon ( ) for 720P selections.
If the system doesn't detect any movement for five minutes, an icon ( ) will appear in the center of the screen. In this mode, the video resolution defaults to either 1080P 15 FPS or 720P 15 FPS for recording, and the length of the recording will correspond to the previously set loop recording duration. Should the camera detect any vibration or movement, it will exit this standby mode. It will then wait for another five minutes without movement before re-entering the low bitrate recording mode.
Parking Mode - Low Bitrate Recording

Note: The low bitrate recording feature is only functional when the camera is powered on. Turning off the camera will disable low bitrate recording.

Low Framerate Mode
In low framerate mode, the dash cam records at a reduced framerate, which you can set to 1, 5, 10, or 15 frames per second (FPS), depending on your preference. For instance, if the normal recording rate is 30 FPS and you select 1 FPS, the camera will produce one frame of video per second. This mode is efficient for saving storage space on the memory card while maintaining the video's continuity.
Parking Mode - Using Low Framerate Mode

The formula to calculate the duration of normal recording time in low framerate mode is: Normal Recording Time = Low Framerate Recording Time (in seconds) × Recording Framerate (FPS). To work with the result, you may need to convert the time into seconds if it's not already.

Please Note:

  1. For optimal operation of the dash cam in parking mode, it's recommended to utilize hardwire kits or a reliable, uninterrupted power source.
  2. Low framerate mode operates similarly to time-lapse recording but without the 5minute delay before it starts after activation. Once set, it begins recording immediately.
  3. A continuous power source is necessary for low framerate mode to function correctly. If the camera is turned off or runs out of power, recording will cease.

Time Lapse

Time-lapse recording is a feature that allows the camera to capture footage at a reduced frame rate. You can choose from options such as 1 frame per second (FPS), 5 FPS, 10 FPS, or 15 FPS. For instance, if you select the 1 FPS option and your camera typically records at 30 FPS, it will now record one frame every second. This method is particularly useful for saving memory card space while still maintaining a time-compressed video record of your trip.
Basic Operation - Time-lapse recording

To calculate the actual video duration in time-lapse mode, use the following formula:
Normal Recording Time in Seconds = Time Lapse Recording Time (Sec) × [Normal Framerate FPS / Time Lapse Option FPS]. Remember to convert the time into seconds when calculating.

GPS Function

The GPS feature is a crucial aspect of the dash cam, offering default-enabled geolocation services. The camera captures GPS signals through its mount, allowing it to automatically update the time and date according to your region. It also logs the location of the footage and the vehicle's speed at the time of recording.
Basic Operation - Using the GPS Function

Note:

  1. The GPS should establish a connection within one minute of powering on the device. If it fails to connect, verify that the GPS function is active on the device, the GPS mount is connected correctly, and the environment is conducive to receiving a GPS signal.
  2. GPS data is recorded concurrently with the video. To access this information, you will need to download the VANTURE Cam App and the VANTURE GPS Player from www.vantrue.net. These tools allow you to view the comprehensive travel data alongside your video playback.

Automatic Time via GPS

The E2 dash cam comes equipped with a GPS-enabled automatic time adjustment feature. By default, this feature is activated and sets the camera's clock based on the GPS location data it receives. You can manually select your time zone—for example, GMT-08:00 for Los Angeles—or connect to the Vantrue Cam app via Wi-Fi to verify and ensure the automatic time setting is correct and active.
