Setup Guide
1. Choosing an Installation Location
Select a suitable location on your rear windshield. The ideal spot is typically in the upper center, ensuring a clear view of the road behind and minimizing obstruction to your rear visibility. Clean the area thoroughly before mounting.
2. Mounting the Rear Camera
- Peel off the protective film from the adhesive pad on the camera mount.
- Firmly press the camera onto the chosen location on the rear windshield. Hold for at least 30 seconds to ensure a strong bond.
- Adjust the camera angle to capture the desired view.
3. Connecting to the Main Dash Cam
- Locate the mini8pin interface on your 70mai Dash Cam (X800 or M800).
- Connect one end of the provided 6-meter connection cable to the RC14 Rear Cam.
- Route the cable neatly along the headliner and A-pillar, down to the main dash cam. Use cable clips (not included) if necessary to secure the cable and prevent interference with airbags or other vehicle components.
- Connect the other end of the cable to the mini8pin port on your main 70mai Dash Cam.
Note: Ensure the main dash cam is powered off before connecting or disconnecting the rear camera cable.
Operating Instructions
Once the RC14 Rear Cam is successfully connected to your compatible 70mai Dash Cam, its operation is largely integrated with the main unit.
1. Automatic Detection
Upon powering on the main dash cam, it should automatically detect the connected RC14 Rear Cam. The dash cam's display (if applicable) or companion app will indicate that a rear camera is connected and actively recording.
2. Dual-Channel Recording
The RC14 enables dual-channel recording, meaning both the front and rear views are recorded simultaneously. These recordings are typically stored as separate files or integrated into the main dash cam's file system, depending on the dash cam model and firmware.
3. Parking Recording Support
When connected to a compatible 70mai Dash Cam (like the X800) that supports parking surveillance, the RC14 will also contribute to parking mode recording. This means that if an event (e.g., collision, motion) is detected while parked, both front and rear footage will be captured.
4. Viewing Footage
Rear camera footage can be viewed through the main dash cam's display (if available) or by connecting the dash cam to the 70mai mobile application. Refer to your main dash cam's user manual for detailed instructions on accessing and managing recorded files.
Maintenance
1. Cleaning the Lens
Regularly clean the lens of the RC14 Rear Cam to ensure clear video quality. Use a soft, lint-free cloth, slightly dampened with lens cleaner or water. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that could scratch the lens.
2. Checking Connections
Periodically check that the connection cable between the rear cam and the main dash cam is securely plugged in. Loose connections can lead to intermittent recording or signal loss.
3. Firmware Updates
Ensure your main 70mai Dash Cam's firmware is up to date. Firmware updates often include improvements for accessory compatibility and performance. Check the 70mai app or official website for the latest firmware versions.
