The RAC 210 uses ‘loop technology” – this means that when the Micro SD card
is full up, it will automatically overwrite the oldest videos and keep recording.
There is no need to erase files or adjust the settings.
The default segment duration is 3 minutes, which can be changed from the
menu settings. For example, 1 hour of recording would generate 20 x 3 minute
segments. During recording, press Menu button to protect the current
video, the lock icon appears on the screen, the current video clip will be
protected and cannot be replaced.
The reason for recording in segments is so that, when you connect the RAC 210
to your computer, or download files using the SD card reader, numerous files
will appear on the screen, each tagged with a date and time, with each file
representing a segment. This makes it easy to locate a specific file, rather than
having to scroll through hours of video.
