USB Mode 

When connecting a USB cable with a PC, the DVR will present two options. ‘Mass Storage’ allows 
you to transfer your videos and photos to your PC. The ‘PC Camera’ option allows you to use your 
DVR as a webcam for your computer. 
 

Battery Instructions 

Please see below illustration for battery the capacity indications. 
 
 
 

 
 
 
When the DVR is charging, a red indicator on the DVR glows red. The DVR takes about 3 hours to 
fully charge. When the DVR hits full charge, the red indicator will turn off. 
The DVR can be charged multiple ways: 

1.  Using the provided micro USB cable to connect to a USB interface for charging. 
2.  Using the provided car charger 

 

Menu setting features explained 

Resolution:  

The recommended resolution should be set at ‘720P 1280x720’ in order to get the best 

quality footage. 
 

Loop Recording:  

This feature allows you to set the size of the files your DVR will record before 

saving and creating a new file. We recommend the DVR to be set to ‘3’ minute files. 
 

Exposure:

  This feature will change the white input. We recommend it always be set at ‘+0.0’. 

 

Record Audio:

  This Feature will allow you to turn the DVRs recording sound on or off. If you want 

to stop the DVR recording sound in the cab of your vehicle, set this feature to ‘off’. 
 

Date Stamp:

 This feature will stamp the date and time on all your footage produced by your DVR. 

 

G Sensor:

  This feature allows you to set the sensitivity of the Gravity sensor in the DVR. We 

recommend this be set to ‘4G to help stop false or irrelevant readings. 
 

Parking Guard:

 When enabled, the DVR will automatically turn on and start recording when it 

detects a crash against the car. This is mainly used when the car is parked and someone else hits 
your vehicle. A ‘P’ icon on the right of the screen signifies it is turned on.
