Recommended Installation

1. Clean the windscreen inside and out to

ensure clearer images and easy adhesion.

2. Fit the suction cup bracket to the camera.

3. Plug the 5V power adaptor into the

cigarette lighter or 12V socket and the other
end into the Drive Recorder’s DC5V power
input. The Drive Recorder will start up and
then begin recording automatically.

4. The camera should be positioned near the

top of the windscreen close to the rear-view
mirror using the suction cup. Tilt the camera
so that the screen shows only 20% of sky
at the top and a small amount of bonnet at
the bottom.

5. Once you are happy with the position of

the Drive Recorder, pull the lever on the

suction cup to rmly attach the camera to

the windscreen.

6. Work out your best cable run to the 12V

power supply (see diagram).

7. Starting from the camera using a small

object e.g. a credit card, carefully tuck the
cable between the windscreen and rubber
seal. Once at the corner tuck the cable
down the appropriate pillar between the
door and the dashboard (see diagram) and
run under dashboard to 12V power supply
using the self-adhesive cable clips supplied.

8. If you have any problems installing the Drive

Recorder then please contact our Technical

Tips & Tricks

• If your cigarette lighter socket does not

automatically power down when the

engine is turned o, we recommend that

you disconnect the Driver Recorder from
the power source when the vehicle is left
overnight or for any length of time.

• In the unlikely event of a camera lock-up,

there is a small reset button on the top of
the camera. The camera may also be reset
to factory defaults using the menus.

• You can preserve the integrity of the Micro

SD Card by regularly formatting it in the
Drive Recorder.

• The recommended resolution for the P102

is Full HD (1920 x 1080p) left to continually
record with automatic record overwrite. The
SD Card capacity varies with the amount of
detail in any one scene but at this resolution
a 32GB SD Card will store just over 10
hours worth of recordings.

• Much more can be stored if a lower

resolution is selected such as 1280 x 720p
is set. The results are still very acceptable
and over 14 hours of recordings are
possible on the same 32GB SD Card..

• It is a good idea to store as many

recordings as you can in case you need
them in the future – for example if you want
to dispute a speed camera etc… One way
to do this is to use several 32GB SD Cards
numbering them 1,2,3 etc… or Mon, Tues,
Wed etc… These can then be copied to
your PC for safe keeping.

Transferring Data to a PC or Mac

• The best way to transfer data to a computer

is to remove the Micro SD Card and insert
it into the appropriate slot in your computer.
If your computer does not have a Micro SD
Card slot, then a USB adapter is available
from RoadPixel.

• Alternatively, the camera may be connected

directly to a computer using a USB cable.

• If you want to save, view or share the video

(and sound) data, then the recordings are in
a standard MOV format and can be played
with many video players such as Windows
Media Player™ or Windows Live Movie
Maker™, provided that the appropriate
Codecs are present on your PC (such as

the ones in the K-Lite Codec pack).
