2. Wiring Connections
- Power Connection: Connect the dash cam to your vehicle's power outlet using the provided car charger.
- Rear Camera Connection: Connect the 10m rear camera cable to the main unit. For the reverse view function to work, the red wire from the rear camera cable must be connected to your car's reverse light power supply. Professional installation is recommended for this step.
- AUX Audio Output: If you wish to output audio through your car's speakers, connect the provided AUX cable from the dash cam's AUX port to your car's AUX input.
- GPS Antenna (Optional but Recommended): For full functionality of ADAS features and GPS tracking, connect an external GPS antenna (not included in all packages, may require separate purchase).

3. AirPlay & Miracast

4. Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)
The ADAS features detect your surroundings and provide real-time voice alerts to help prevent accidents. For optimal performance, an external GPS antenna is highly recommended.
- Forward Collision Warning (FCW): Alerts you to maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead. Voice alert: "Attention To The Front Car."
- Lane Departure Warning System (LDW): Warns you if your vehicle drifts out of its lane. Voice alert: "The Lane Departured." If using a GPS active antenna, LDW triggers when driving speed is above 50KM/h. Without a GPS active antenna, it triggers as long as a lane departure occurs.
- Front Vehicle Starting Reminder System (FVD): Notifies you when the vehicle in front starts moving, preventing delays. Voice alert: "The Car Started." This function requires a GPS Antenna for normal operation.

5. Audio Playback Modes
Enjoy your audio through various methods:
- Bluetooth Audio: For CarPlay or Android Auto use only. Connect your phone directly to your original car's Bluetooth system.
- AUX Out Audio: Connect an AUX cable from the dash cam to your vehicle's AUX interface for direct, high-fidelity sound quality.
- FM Transmitter: Connects to your original car radio to output audio. After the initial manual connection, it will automatically connect in the future.
- Native Audio: The device has a built-in speaker, allowing you to listen to music directly from the dash cam.

7. GPS Tracking & App Control
With precise GPS technology, the dash cam accurately tracks your vehicle's location and routes. In the event of an accident, it records the exact location. You can view and download videos via Wi-Fi using the 'Roadcam' App, which is crucial for roadside assistance and insurance claims. You can also share your journey videos with others.

8. Real Time Reverse View
The device supports a 1080P full-screen reverse image with guide lines. When reversing, the system automatically activates the high-definition rear camera, displaying the rear view on the IPS screen. You can adjust the guide line position by sliding the left side of the screen.

9. Recording Features
- Loop Recording: The dash cam records continuously. When the TF/SD card is full, it automatically overwrites the oldest videos to ensure uninterrupted recording. You can set video file lengths to 1, 2, or 5 minutes in the settings. The device supports up to a 256GB TF card.
- 3-Axis G-Sensor: With a built-in 3-Axis G-sensor, the sensitivity can be adjusted (low, medium, or high). If significant vibration or impact is detected during recording, the device will automatically record and save a 20-second video clip to prevent it from being overwritten.
- 24h Parking Monitoring: To enable 24-hour parking monitoring, the dash cam needs a constant power supply from your vehicle's battery. This requires an additional buck line (not included in the package) to be purchased and installed.
- Night Vision: The front camera is equipped with night vision capabilities, allowing for clear recording and visibility of road conditions even in low-light or dark environments.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the screen and lens. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the device.
- Temperature: Operate the device within the specified working temperature range (-20℃ to 70℃) to ensure longevity.
- Cable Management: Ensure all cables are securely connected and not obstructing your view or interfering with vehicle controls.
- Firmware Updates: Periodically check the manufacturer's website or the Roadcam app for any available firmware updates to improve performance and add new features.
Troubleshooting
- ADAS features not working / GPS required: ADAS functions like Lane Departure Warning and Front Vehicle Starting Reminder require a GPS active antenna. Ensure it is connected and functioning correctly. LDW also has speed requirements (above 50KM/h with GPS).
- Dashcam not recording vehicle speed: Vehicle speed recording typically relies on GPS data. Ensure your GPS antenna is connected and receiving a signal.
- Memory card full / Loop Recording not working: The device supports true loop recording, automatically overwriting the oldest files. Ensure your TF/SD card is Class 10 or higher and formatted correctly within the device settings. Check recording settings for video file length.
- Where to get GPS Antenna: The GPS antenna is crucial for certain ADAS features. If not included in your package, please contact the seller for purchasing options.
User Tips
- For optimal ADAS performance and accurate speed recording, ensure a GPS active antenna is installed and connected.
- Regularly check your memory card for proper function and sufficient space, even with loop recording enabled.
- If you experience issues with ADAS features, verify your driving speed and GPS signal strength.
- Consider purchasing a buck line for continuous 24-hour parking monitoring.
