2. Installation
Make sure the car is parked and follow the instructions to install the product in order to ensure the
best shooting angle and quality."
MOUNT
Buckle the device with base hold bracket. Find the suitable installation position, clean up the
glass and peel offthe cover of red sticker on the base holder bracket. Stick the base holder
bracket to the glass slowly and FIRMLY. "
NOTE: THE STICKER MAY LOSE THE STICKINESS DUE TO LONG-TERM SUNLIGHT EXPOSURE OR OTHER HUMAN
FACTOR.
ADJUST THE LENS
Adjust lens position to have a perfect viewing coverage after installation."
POWER ON & START RECORDING
Insert the micro-SD card into the card slot of device. Connect power cable
(the other side connecting to cigarette lighter plug) to mini USB port of the
device. The device will power on and start recording automatically after the
car engine starts. When the car is powered off, it automatically stops
recording and saves the recorded file. "
NOTE: PLEASE USE THE SD CARD WITH CLASS 10 LEVEL OR ABOVE; CAPACITY NO LESS THAN 8GB, AND THE
PRODUCT CAN SUPPORT UP-TO 256GB
CABLE CONNECTION
Install and tuck away the cable properly to avoid obstructing driver’s viewing. In most vehicles,
probably to tuck and hide the cables into the headliner. Professional installation is recommended.
Please also refer to Chapter 6 for more cable information."
3. Basic Operation
Video recording starts automatically and continuously after the D310F device power is on and
complete the initialization. And then it can take input instructions from external device (usually
Vehicle Tracker) via RS232 port. Main cable features a RS232 connection port for connecting to
Vehicle Tracker. "
Typical user scenarios include setting Wi-Fi connection of D310F to nearby Wi-Fi AP, triggering an
event to D310F for a short event video clip recording and uploading to cloud server, taking an
immediate snapshot and so on from vehicle tracker. D310F provides a set of instructions (OTUS
Fleet Communication Protocol, OFCP) for vehicle tracker to issue command, take response,
receive notification and return acknowledgment with D310F. Please refer to OTUS Fleet
4

Communication Protocol document for the complete OFCP instructions information. In some
cases, Wi-Fi connection may be broken due to bad Wi-Fi signal or interference. D310F would
report the connection fail status to external device. Then external device can resume the
connection by issuing re-connection command."
Dash Cam also integrates a few LED indicators to help users catch the system status easily. The
indicators include Wi-Fi ON/OFF/Connection, MIC ON/OFF, Recording ON/OFF."
4. Introduction to Development Tool and Demo
Environment for fast D310F Evaluation
As described previously, D310F starts loop video recording automatically and continuously after
power is on until power is cut offor Vehicle tracker instructs D310F to execute other missions. A
comprehensive command sets have been implemented and deployed on D310F. A demo and
evaluation tool - “FleetDemo.exe” is provided for system designer to quick examine functionalities
supported by D310F "
"
4.1 OTUS FLEET COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL (OFCP)
OTUS Fleet Communication Protocol (OFCP) is designed to be used in the communication
between Vehicle Tracker and Dash Camera (Vehicle Video Recorder). In the role play of OFCP
target user scenarios, Vehicle Tracker is defined as Protocol Master, and Dash Camera (D310F) is
defined as Protocol Slave. "

Typical User Scenario:
①Fleet Mgmt. Platform Communicates with Vehicle Tracker through 3G/4G channel
②Vehicle Tracker sends Event Triggers to D310F Camera via RS232, and D310F can detect driving
behavior events as well
③D310F uploads video upon Event Triggered and Remote Requests

In typical use case of Video Telematics, Dash Camera plays the roles of loop video recording at
local storage, as well as the creation of event triggered video clips and then uploading these event
video clips to the Cloud Server. Events can be triggered either by Dash Camera internally based
on its built-in sensors or intelligence video analysis or externally by Vehicle Tracker based on
external connected sensors or remote commands from Cloud Server."
Please refer to OTUS Fleet Communication Protocol document for the complete information of
instruction usage, instruction contents as well as examples."
4.2 TYPICAL SCENARIO
The following figure (Figure 1) shows a typical use case of video telematics, except the role of
Vehicle Tracker is replaced by the a RS232 CMD Tool - FleetDemo.exe. It provides a quick way for
Vehicle tracker system designer to examine all functionalities supported by D310F. "
"
4.3 RS232 CMD TOOL
Figure 2 shows the user interface of OTUS RS232
CMD tool - FleetDemo.exe. It is running on Windows
OS. The most core functionalities of D310F are Wi-Fi
HotSpot connection, triggering event video recording,
live video streaming, snapshot taking as well as video
recording parameters setting. "
Please refer to the FleetDemo User Guide for the
detail information of how to use FleetDemo tool to
examine all the functionalities supported by D310F. "
