Overview
Record Overwrite (Loop Setting)
This is a recycling function for the video on your sd card, it records videos in blocks.
It will start recording on the first empty block
Once the SD card has no more empty blocks left to record on
It will then go back to the start and record over the oldest video first
Please note : If you turn this function to OFF, the camera will record until the card is full, then it will stop recording.
You will manually have to format the SD card to clear the video files.
G-Sensor
The G-sensor is a trigger, When it has been activated it knows something has happened and will lock the video file so it cannot
be recorded over by the Loop setting function above.
The G-sensor works on an motion accelerometer, X - Y - Z, Up and down, side to side and forward and backwards motion.
The G-Sensor can be activated by a number of factors depending on the settings you have entered.
If the G-Sensor has been set to 1G it will respond to small changes in acceleration, swerving and accidents, where as 7G setting,
would require a lot more force to activate.
Standard cars are generally set between 1G and 3G , where as HGV’s are set between 3G and 7G.
If you have a incident and you are not sure if it had enough force to trigger the G-Sensor you can always press button 2 when
the camera is recording, this will put a padlock on the screen. This is the manual locking function.
Motion Detection
Motion detection is a function for when you are leaving your vehicle and want to record activity around the vehicle.
When this function is switched on, and an object is detected in the lens the camera will turn on and start to record, when the
object has passed and there is no movement detected the camera will switch off within 10 minutes.
Please Note: For motion detection, the camera must be wired to a permanent power source. The camera will not
automatically switch on when the vehicle is started and will be a manual process to switch the camera on and switching
between motion detection and normal driving mode.
Failure to switch off motion detection whilst driving, may result in inconsistent video footage.
