Note
yUp to 50event recordings (impact, manual) can be locked from being overwritten. By default, this feature is disabled. You can
enable it from rmware settings and choose to either overwrite them with new event les when the event le storage is full or lock the 50event les and save the new event les in loop recording storage. Please note that formatting the microSD card deletes all the recordings including the locked event les.
yThe recording LED blinks while recording (default setting) and the GPS LED is on when a GPS signal is received. There are
4recording modes: Normal, Event, Parking and Manual. The dashcam starts recording in normal mode, switches to event mode when an impact is detected, and switches to parking mode if the vehicle is stationary for 5minutes. Touching the proximity sensor turns on/o audio recording or triggers manual recording depending on the rmware settings.
yWhen you run the dashcam for the rst time the rmware is automatically loaded onto the microSD card. After the rmware has
been loaded onto the microSD card you can customize settings using BlackVue Viewer on a computer.
