6. Main features and Settings

6.1 Recording and Saving

The purpose of your MDC10W is to continuously record the road ahead, and to automatically record and save any incidents or accidents you might be involved in. The status LED (Blue) will flash when it is recording. By default, MDC10W records video in clusters of 1 minute. It can also be set to 3 minutes or 5 minutes. Although a longer loop recording time improves continuous playback, it will result in larger files, which is more difficult to manage. To change the default duration for each recording cluster, tap in Hubble Dashcam app, select Dashcam settings > Loop recording. Once your SD card is full, it will automatically overwrite the oldest footage.

6.2 Mass Storage Mode

You can also connect MDC10W to your computer using a standard micro USB cable to view and manage videos stored inside the SD card.

22 Main features and Settings

6.3 Parking Mode

Your MDC10W can record footages of events occurring when your car is parked with its engine off. The built-in battery will keep the G-sensor of your device in detection mode, and will start recording automatically for 30 seconds if it detects vibration or a shock. Parking mode can only record and save footage after an event has been detected by the G-sensor.

IMPORTANT!

Parking mode is disabled by default.

To enable parking mode, tap in Hubble Dashcam app > Dashcam settings > Parking

mode.

6.4 G-sensor / File Protection

Your MDC10W is equipped with a G-sensor that detects shocks. Each time an impact is detected, it will lock the recording during which the event occurred and prevent the loop recording from being overwritten.

The sensitivity is set to Low by default, but can be set to Off/High/Medium/Low. A Low setting means it requires the most impact to trigger the 'locking' of recordings, while a High setting requires the least impact to trigger the 'locking' of recordings.

Main fe atures an d Setting s 2 3

ENGLISH

To change the sensitivity of the G-sensor, tap

in Hubble Dashcam app, select Dashcam

settings > G-Sensor. Note that if you turn the G-sensor off, your

MDC10W will not be able to lock and protect any footage. To unlock protected recordings, tap in Hubble Dashcam app and select Storage Management > Unlocked > Yes.

IMPORTANT!

All the event videos will be unlocked. Make sure that you have saved important videos before you proceed.

6.5 Automatic Start / Stop

The MDC10W senses power supplied to the cigarette lighter car adapter as soon as the vehicle ignition is turned on, and will start to record automatically. When the ignition is turned off, MDC10W shuts down automatically.
