If the 12v socket is “constant on” (in some European vehicles), then the Navcam-GPS will
need to be turned on/off manually via the power button
Whilst connected to the car’s 12V DC socket (or from a powered USB hub or PC USB port)
the LED indicator will glow orange (battery is charging) and will turn to green colour once
the battery is fully charged.
The screen saver feature can automatically dim the LCD screen (turn off) while recording,
after a set period of time. This is ideal for night time driving.
TURN ON AND AUTO-RECORD
When the Navcam-GPS is turned on (either by pressing the power button or auto on) the
device will automatically begin recording. To stop recording, either turn power off to the
unit or disconnect the power cable.
RECORDING
Turn on the Navcam-GPS. Recording should start automatically (please check your user
settings if unsure). When recording has begun, the video icon on the LCD screen will turn
RED. The recorded file is saved onto the Micro SDHC Card. Stop the recording by either
pressing the STOP buttonor turning the car ignition off (stopping power to the device)
In the event of an incident / accident
–
STOP the Recording
.
- Due to the “cycle recording” nature of this technology, older recorded files will be overwritten (depending on
the chosen resolution settings and the memory capacity of the Micro SD card). For example a 2GB SD card at
HD resolution will only offer you 20 minutes of record time before the files (1, 3, 5, 8, 10 or 20min sizes) start to
get overwritten
- Should you wish to KEEP the video footage of an incident from not being overwritten,
stop the recording
soon
after an incident has occurred. (Either press the middle button or disconnect the power or remove the Micro
SD card).
- Alternately use a larger capacity SD card or lower the recording resolution (eg; a 32GB SD card at VGA
