Key functions
Automatic Booting
Once you’ve wired your KP2 to the vehicle’s
power source, the KP2 will turn on and begin
recording after about 30 seconds.
1. Video recording
Continuous record
This is the default mode for recording. Your KP2 begins recording after booting up and continues to record the entire
time the device is on. In this mode, the SD card storage may ll up quicker and overwrite your oldest recordings when
it’s full. You may congure your resolution settings using the KP2 Configuration Tool. Avoid losing data by backing up
driver data on separate storage or PC after incidents.
Dual record, continuous + event
Continuous record les will be stored in the “Normal” folder, and event record les will be stored in the “Event” folder on
the SD card.
Events
Set audible alerts on the KP2 when specic events trigger (like tailgating). You can choose either a natural language
voice or a beep sound. Instant notications of events can be uploaded to the server simultaneously. Events can also
activate a masking mode, where the audio and/or video recording is disabled when the event occurs. For example,
geofence events can automatically turn off video/audio recording when the vehicle enters a secure or private area
(such as a government facility or home).
Drive data
DRV data (drive data) will record driving information regardless of events. DRV les consist of GPS, G-sensor, ADAS/
DSM and OBD data. DRV les overwrite your device’s oldest data. DRV les upload to the server every 10 minutes by
default but can increase to every minute.
2. G-sensor calibration
1. Install your device, and park the vehicle on a at surface.
2. Turn on the device.
3. Press the small, red button for 3 seconds.
4. Calibration conrmed with an audible alert.

Key functions
3. Bluetooth®panic button
Please get in touch with Sensata INSIGHTS or your supplier to buy a Bluetooth panic button for your KP2.
Enable pairing
To enable Bluetooth pairing for your panic button, change the following KP2 Conguration Tool settings in Info > Service:
• Select “Flic” in the Bluetooth Panic eld
• Select “Panic Button” in the Bluetooth Button Function eld
Your Bluetooth panic button won’t work if you don’t turn these settings on.
How to pair with the KP2
Red LED = Warning, Blue LED = Record, Green LED = Network
1. Make sure KP2 is on, and the blue LED is solid.
2. Press and hold the small red BT button on the device. Warning and Record LEDs will blink. This means the device
enters pairing mode.
3. Press and hold the external BT button for 7 seconds.
Afterwards, your Warning and Record LEDs will revert to the previous mode. You have completed pairing your KP2
Bluetooth panic button.
4. Supercapacitor (emergency power)
When device power is interrupted, your KP2 creates the last recording using a built-in supercapacitor.

9
ADAS functions
Your KP2’s Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)
features allow drivers to receive in-cabin preventive
audio alerts in cases of potential incidents.
LDW
Lane Departure Warning
Your vehicle crosses a solid lane
line on either side of the road.
Forward Collision Warning
Your vehicle is likely to collide
with something in front
of the vehicle.
Headway Monitoring Warning
Your vehicle is not maintaining
a safe distance with the vehicle
in front of you (tailgating).
Caution
During your KP2 settings calibration, remember that Camera Height
is integral to proper ADAS functionality. Therefore, when you input
your measurements, please abide by the guidance in the KP2
Installer App.
ADAS functionality is not a substitute for an alert, trained and
engaged driver. ADAS functionality will be impaired by many things,
including but not limited to device malfunction, obstruction of the
device’s image sensor, intense weather conditions that reduce the
visibility afforded to the device’s image sensor, and poor and/or
faded road and lane striping/markings.

10
DSM functions
Your KP2’s Driver State Monitoring (DSM) functions
allow drivers to receive audible alerts for driver distraction
and fatigue.
The following DSM events are configurable in your KP2:
Driver Distraction Warning (DDW)
Driver has eyes off the road
for a prolonged period of time.
Driver Fatigue Warning (DFW)
Driver is yawning and/or has
prolonged eyelid closure.

Driver safety warnings
Disclaimer
The KP2 is not a substitute for a safe, conscientious
driver. The KP2 cannot compensate for a driver who is
distracted, inattentive or impaired by fatigue, drugs or
alcohol. Whether or not the KP2 is in use, it is always
the driver’s responsibility to take appropriate corrective
action. It does not eliminate or decrease the need for
a driver to stay alert and obey all trafc laws while
operating a vehicle. Never wait for the device to provide
a warning before taking measures to avoid an accident.
Failure to do so can result in serious personal injury,
death or severe property damage.
Always, it is the driver’s responsibility to:
• Use safe driving techniques
• Exercise proper judgment
• Maintain a safe speed and distance between vehicles
• Take measures to avoid an accident
• Comply with all applicable laws and regulations
The driver and front passenger must always be
correctly seated with seat belts fastened when
operating the vehicle to reduce the potential
danger of injuries.
Operational concerns
In certain conditions, including inclement weather,
low visibility and precarious road conditions
(including poor lane markings, construction zones,
dirt roads, heavy or complicated trafc, and curvy
and winding roads), your KP2 may have limited to
no functionality.
The KP2 may not detect objects such as motorcyclists,
bicyclists or pedestrians even in ideal conditions.
Always keep the lens and view of your KP2
unobstructed and adequately calibrated to not
inhibit camera functions.
Driving in certain conditions or any interference
with your KP2 can result in false, few or no warnings.
Drivers must continuously monitor trafc and
surroundings and take measures to avoid an
accident; failure to do so can result in serious
personal injury, death or severe property damage.
If your KP2 is not functioning correctly, please
contact your distributor or our support and
have the device inspected immediately.
Whether or not the KP2 is operational, it is the
driver’s responsibility to maintain vehicle control;
failure to do so can result in serious personal injury,
death or severe property damage.
Cleaning advisory
Do not apply compressed air or cleaning solutions
(e.g., Windex®) to your KP2 while cleaning the device
or vehicle cab. Usage of these products may damage
the device.

12
GPS reception
Improve your signal
1. Activate your KP2 in an area
without large buildings.
2. The optimum operating temperature
for your vehicle’s GPS is -10°C~50°C
3. When rst using your KP2 or turning
it on after a period (>3 days),
allow more time to recognize
your current location.
Reception may be impaired:
1. If there is an object at the end of the GPS antenna.
2. If your vehicle has metallic elements on the windshields.
3. If you install equipment generating electromagnetic waves that interfere
with the GPS signal in the vehicle (Ex: Other GPS devices like certain
wireless activated alarms, MP3 and CD players and camera alarms use GPS.)
4. If you use a receiver connected by cable. You can avoid electric
interference by changing the receiver’s location (antenna).
5. On heavily overcast or cloudy days if the vehicle is:
• In a covered place such as under a bridge or raised roadway
• In a tunnel
• In an underground roadway or a parking area
• Inside a building or garage
• Surrounded by high-rise buildings
6. If GPS signal reception is poor. It may take longer to locate your current
position when the vehicle is moving than when it’s stationary.
When satellites don’t have line of
sight, cellular towers help triangulate
a vehicle’s location.

KP2 ADAS disclaimer
To properly activate and utilize KP2’s ADAS features,
Sensata INSIGHTS recommends installation
using OBDII data or, in the future, JBUS connection.
Vehicle-sourced speed data retrieval through these
means is integral to accessing vehicle speed for
precise ADAS notications.
For installations (ex: 3-Wire or Cigarette Adaptor)
without vehicle data retrieval or in instances where
speed is unobtainable from the vehicle, KP2 defaults
to GPS speed measurement in the operation of ADAS
features. In this case, vehicles must surpass a speed
threshold to trigger ADAS functions. This threshold
is distinct from other speed thresholds used to
congure ADAS events. Please contact your
Sensata INSIGHTS integration team to learn
about specic values for different event types. Below
these thresholds, and in cases where vehicles without
vehicle-sourced speed data encounter GPS signal
“dead zones” like parking garages and highway tunnels,
loss of ADAS function is expected.
If you enable ADAS features on a KP2, you assume full
responsibility and indemnify Sensata INSIGHTS for
any incidents directly correlated with ADAS efcacy,
malfunction or delays.
