8. Troubleshooting (Q&A)
Problem 1: Apple iPhone connection failed
- Turn off Cellular Data in phone settings before connecting to Wi-Fi.
- If connected to CarPlay, turn off Bluetooth, then connect to camera Wi-Fi.
- Ensure album and network permissions are enabled for the app.
Problem 2: Android phone connection failure
- After connecting to camera Wi-Fi, if prompted about no internet access, select "Keep WLAN Connection".
- Close Mobile Data first, then connect to Wi-Fi.
Problem 3: App cannot save settings (default settings restored after reboot)
- After setting in the App, press and hold the camera power button to turn it off, then briefly press to turn it back on.
Problem 4: App video file is empty, no video loaded
- Open App settings to format the memory card, then record video.
- If still no video, insert the memory card into a computer to check for damage or incompatibility. Replace if necessary.
- Recommended: Class 10 SanDisk/KIOXIA/Samsung memory cards (32GB or 64GB). Max supported size is 256GB.
Problem 5: Computer cannot play videos smoothly or at all
- Recommended players: PotPlayer and KMplayer.
- Low computer specifications may cause choppy playback, especially for 4K videos.
Problem 6: Cannot connect 2 phones at the same time
- The camera's Wi-Fi supports only one phone connection at a time. Disconnect the first phone's Wi-Fi before connecting another.
Problem 7: Timestamp error, missing recorded video, or no video when phone not connected
- This may occur after a complete power failure (e.g., car repair, battery replacement). Reconnect the camera's Wi-Fi with your phone to synchronize time.
- Regularly check the camera's proper functioning.
Problem 8: Forgot Wi-Fi name or password
- Press and hold the camera key for 20 seconds, or use a paperclip to press the reset button to restore factory settings.
Problem 9: Do I need to connect the camera Wi-Fi and open the App every time I drive?
- No, the camera automatically turns on and off with the car. The app and Wi-Fi connection are only needed for accessing recorded footage or changing settings.
Problem 10: Cannot find the Wi-Fi network
- First, remove the memory card and then search for Wi-Fi. A faulty memory card can prevent Wi-Fi from appearing.
- Press and hold the camera button for 20 seconds, or use a paper clip to press the reset button.
- Check if the camera's indicator light is on. No light indicates no power, and thus no Wi-Fi.
9. User Tips
- For optimal performance, use a Class 10 SanDisk, KIOXIA, or Samsung memory card with 32GB or 64GB capacity. The camera supports up to 256GB.
- When reviewing footage on a computer, PotPlayer and KMplayer are recommended for smooth playback, especially for 4K resolution videos.
- Regularly check the camera's indicator light to ensure it is powered on and functioning correctly.
- If you need specific power cables (fuse box or OBD) instead of the default plug-and-play cable, contact support before your order is shipped.
- If you have a single front camera version, you cannot add a separate rear camera later. Ensure you purchase a dual-cam version if rear recording is desired.
- While dual-cam versions include both cameras, you have the option to install only the front camera if the rear camera is not needed.
- Additional front camera cables are available for purchase if required; contact support for details.
10. Maintenance
- Memory Card Management: Periodically format your memory card through the FITCAMX app to ensure optimal recording performance and prevent data corruption. Replace the memory card if it shows signs of damage or incompatibility.
- Firmware Updates: Check the FITCAMX app or manufacturer's website for any available firmware updates to ensure your dash cam has the latest features and bug fixes.
- Cleaning: Gently clean the camera lens with a soft, lint-free cloth to maintain clear video quality. Avoid using harsh chemicals.
- Power Supply: Ensure the power connection is secure. If using a fuse box or OBD cable, verify connections periodically.
