Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) detects danger in various operating
environments and helps to prevent accidents.
FVSA (Front Vehicle Start Alarm), LDWS (Lane departure Warning System)
Format free
Advanced format free technology (FFT) and serial encoding allow for maximum
Micro SD Card file stability and long-lasting storage.
Supercapacitor
The supercapacitor is used to safely store and save video files during a sudden
power failure.
Smart parking impact notification
Upon starting the vehicle’s ignition, the device’s screen turns on and displays
the number of motion detection and impact detection events that occurred
during parking recording.
Auto Overwrite
When memory is full, the automatic deletion function is activated and over-
writes older files to allow for continuous storage of new videos.
Driving Recording

Parking Mode
The device must be hardwired to enable parking mode recording. In parking
mode, the device’s impact and motion detection functions are activated, but
driving recording is turned off. Parking mode is initiated around 10 seconds
after the vehicle’s engine is shut off. Parking mode recording commences upon
impact or motion detection. The device’s Low Battery Prevention (LBP) function
prevents vehicle battery discharge when battery power drops below a user-de-
fined level. Specify desired battery level or set timer in Settings.
