7.1.2.2 Time Sync
Date/Time
can be entered manually here.
GPS
should be ticked and the GPS antenna should be
mounted in a vehicle location where signal can be
achieved easily. This is the simplest and more reliable
option.
NTP sync
refers to network time protocol that is used
to synchronize time with NTP Server PC time. This
should only be used for mobile network or Wi-Fi MDR
units.
Note:
When GPS and NTP sync are enabled
simultaneously, GPS takes highest priority. Only if
GPS fails, NTP sync will be used by the MDR.

7.1.2.3 Daylight Saving Time (DST)
Allows users to enter the date and time in which the Daylight-
Saving Time will be activated. In the U.K, it starts on the last
Sunday of March at 1:00 AM and ends on the last Sunday of
October at 2:00 AM. Enter the correct time and date of the country
in which the vehicle will be utilised. Whenever
DST
is not in use,
turn this option to off.
DST Enable
is enabled by default. This setting determines
whether daylight savings time is active.
Start
represents the month, date, day and time at which DST
begins. By default, this is set to UK DST. If the time zone has been
changed to another country, other than the UK, then the DST
settings will need to be amended to reflect the selected country.
End
represents the month, date, day and time at which DST
finishes.

7.1.3
Power
7.1.3.1 On/Off
On/Off Mode
has three different modes: IGNITION, TIMER and IGNITION
OR TIMER.
This option determines the conditions for which the MDR will power up. By
default, it is set to
IGNITION
, which means that the MDR only turns on when an
ignition signal is applied (yellow wire).
Note:
Timer mode must not be used for extended periods of time
– this will
damage your vehicle’s battery.
Non-stop
allows the MDR to record infinitely. Enabling this will disable
Shutdown Delay.
Warning: Using the MDR for prolonged periods of time without ignition
(vehicle running) can drain the vehicle’s battery. Recommend that the Low
Voltage Protection feature is enabled. See 7.1.3.2 Voltage for details.
Shutdown Delay
refers to the period the MDR will remain on and recording
once the ignition has been turned off. The range is 0 to 86399 seconds (24
hours). By default, this is 600 seconds (5 minutes). The shutdown delay period
may show up on the OSD for a period longer than your setting, please see the
note below for an explanation.
Note:
MDRs are required to be continuously on for approximately 6 minutes. If
an MDR has not been continuously on for 6 minutes, MDR shutdown
delay will be equal to 6 minutes minus MDR on time plus your current
shutdown delay period.
Timer From
becomes active once an On/Off Mode that includes timer is
chosen.
