6. Betjeningsvejledning

6.1 Automatisk optagelse

Once powered on, the dash cam will automatically begin recording. The recording will stop when the power is disconnected (e.g., when the car engine is turned off, unless 24/7 parking mode is active).

6.2 Loop-optagelse

The dash cam continuously records video in short segments (e.g., 1, 3, or 5 minutes). When the microSD card is full, the oldest unlocked video files vil automatisk blive overskrevet af nye optagelser. Dette sikrer kontinuerlig optagelse uden manuel indgriben.

6.3 G-sensor (nødlås)

Den indbyggede G-sensor registrerer pludselige stød eller kollisioner. Når den udløses, låser den automatisk det aktuelle videosegment og forhindrer det i at blive overskrevet af loop-optagelse. Disse låste files are stored in a separate folder on the microSD card.

6.4 24/7 Parking Mode

When the dash cam is connected using the ACC hardwire kit, it can monitor your vehicle even when parked. If motion is detected or an impact occurs, the camera will automatically start recording. This feature provides continuous surveillance for theft prevention and vandalism monitoring.

6.5 Nattesyn og WDR
