OPERATING THE NAVCAM-818SHD FOR THE FIRST TIME
Connect a USB car charger to the car’s 12v (or trucks 24v) Cigarette lighter socket and the other
end to the Micro USB port on the NAVCAM-818SHD.
Insert a Micro SD card into the Micro SD slot and turn the device on. When the ignition is turned
on, the NAVCAM-818SHD will turn on.
POWER ON/ OFF (AUTO ON/ OFF)
When connected to power, the NAVCAM-818SHD will turn ON or OFF automatically when the car’s
ignition is turned ON or OFF. If the NAVCAM-818SHD does not turn off immediately it means the
device is completing the file save process before turning off (usually only a few seconds).
To turn the NAVCAM-818SHD ON, press and hold the power button on the side of the device to
ON. To turn off, press and hold the power button again.
If power is “constant on” (in some European vehicles), then the NAVCAM-818SHD will need to be
turned ON/ OFF manually using the power switch.
ABOUT GPS SIGNAL RECEPTION
For convenience, your NAVCAM-818SHD will automatically connect to GPS satellites when in range.
Just like all PND (Portable Navigation Devices) this may take a few minutes (especially the first
time). The signal can also be affected by driving through tunnels for example. The GPS connection
however will reconnect when the GPS satellites come back into range.
Until GPS is re-connected, the following features may not be displayed properly:
-
The navigation map screen
-
Driving speed display
-
Safety alerts such as Red Light, Speed Cameras, School Zones etc.
-
Tracking details used by the GPS Player such as speed, longitude, Latitude and Date and Time.
Note: Schools zones by default are set to 8 – 9:30am and 2:30 – 4pm 40KpH and cannot be changed
with this model.
AUTO RECORD WHEN TURNED ON
When the NAVCAM-818SHD is turned on (via the auto on feature) the device will automatically
begin recording. To stop recording, press the OK button or turn the device OFF using the power
button.
RECORDING FILES
Turn on the NAVCAM-818SHD. Recording should start automatically, if not press the Video Camera
button. When recording has started, a RED dot will appear on the screen (next to the timer) as well
