Operating Instructions
Once installed, the FITCAMX Dashcam operates automatically when the vehicle's ignition is turned on.
Automatic Recording:
The dashcam begins recording automatically when the vehicle starts. Video files are saved in segments to the Micro SD card.
Loop Recording:
When the memory card is full, the dashcam will automatically overwrite the oldest unlocked video files to continue recording. This ensures continuous operation without manual intervention.
G-Sensor (Emergency Recording):
In the event of a sudden impact or collision, the built-in G-sensor detects the event and automatically locks the current video segment. These locked files are protected from being overwritten by loop recording.
Audio Recording:
Audio recording can be enabled or disabled via the FITCAMX mobile application settings.
FITCAMX Mobile Application
The FITCAMX app allows you to manage your dashcam settings, view live footage, and access recorded videos directly from your smartphone.
Connecting to the App:
- Download the FITCAMX app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android).
- Turn on your vehicle's ignition to power the dashcam.
- On your smartphone, go to WiFi settings and connect to the dashcam's WiFi network (usually named 'FITCAMX_XXXX'). The default password is typically '12345678'.
- Open the FITCAMX app. You should now be able to see the live view from the dashcam.
App Functions:
- Live Preview: View real-time video footage from the dashcam.
- Video Playback: Access and play back recorded videos stored on the Micro SD card.
- Download & Share: Download video clips to your phone and share them if needed.

Maintenance
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your FITCAMX Dashcam, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Clean the Lens: Regularly wipe the dashcam lens with a soft, lint-free cloth to ensure clear video recording.
- Micro SD Card: Format the Micro SD card periodically (e.g., once a month) using the dashcam's settings in the app. This helps maintain card health and prevents data corruption. Back up any important files before formatting.
- Temperature: Avoid exposing the dashcam to extreme temperatures for prolonged periods. The dashcam housing is made of PC+ABS material designed to withstand high temperatures, but extreme conditions can still affect performance.
- Firmware Updates: Check the FITCAMX official website or app for any available firmware updates to ensure your dashcam has the latest features and bug fixes.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your FITCAMX Dashcam, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Dashcam Not Powering On: Ensure the power connection to the rain sensor is secure. Check if the vehicle's ignition is on.
- Recording Issues: Verify that the Micro SD card is properly inserted and not full. Try formatting the card via the app. Ensure the card is a high-speed Class 10 or U3 card.
- WiFi Connection Problems: Make sure the dashcam is powered on. Restart your phone's WiFi and try reconnecting. Ensure you are within range of the dashcam's WiFi signal.
- Poor Video Quality: Clean the dashcam lens. Check the video resolution settings in the FITCAMX app to ensure it is set to 4K (2160p).
- G-Sensor Not Triggering: Adjust the G-sensor sensitivity settings in the FITCAMX app.
