5. Seamless Loop Recording
When the SD card is full, the dash cam will automatically overwrite the oldest video files with new recordings, ensuring continuous operation without manual intervention. Video segments are typically 1, 2, or 3 minutes long.
Figure 12: Loop recording ensures continuous recording by overwriting the oldest files when the SD card is full.
6. G-Sensor (Emergency Recording)
The built-in G-sensor detects sudden shocks or collisions. When triggered, it automatically locks the current video file, preventing it from being overwritten by loop recording. This ensures critical incident footage is preserved.

7. Parking Monitor
With the parking monitor feature, the dash cam can record events even when your vehicle is parked. It supports 1-second lightning start recording to capture incidents like vandalism or hit-and-runs. A USB-C Port Hardwire Kit (not included) is needed for 24/7 parking monitoring.
