  • In normal recording mode, recordings are 1 minute in duration and are stored in the NORMAL folder. If the allocated memory area is full while in normal or event recording mode, the program will erase the oldest recorded data in those folders to allow the saving of new files. The management is based on First-In First-Out (FIFO).
  • In the case of an impact, the sensors will trigger the event mode with an alarm. The REC lamp blinks in red and the recorded data with the alarm by the impact will be saved in the EVENT folder.
  • An event file contains images of 60 seconds duration in total, 10 seconds before the point of impact and afterwards a maximum of 45 seconds according to your settings.
  • Recording time after an impact can be changed at Menu> System Settings or via the PC based dedicated PC viewer program.
  • Sensitivity of shock sensor settings should be set differently according to vehicle type in order to support correct event folder video storage. (Go to MENU > System Settings > Shock Sensor · Recording Settings to change the sensitivity value.)

  • The number of impact occurrence in Parking mode is shown on the LCD screen when you start the vehicle. It helps you not to miss the files to check.
  • Impact based data files while parking are stored separately in the EVENT folder.
  • If you do not require Auto switching to parking mode, please disable this in the configuration.
  • Once in Parking Mode, the system automatically rearranges its impact sensing sensitivity to the most sensitive in order to register even the slightest impact/bump.
  • No audio is recorded in parking mode.
  • To use the parking mode, the product has to be connected directly to the power source as there are no internal batteries in the recorder other than the EDLC which is a capacitor providing a short power supply to ensure that the latest video is correctly stored to the SD card on the recorder being shutting down. When connecting the unit to permanent power we recommend the use of a professional auto electrician to assist with the wiring.
