How the
PASSIVE
2 Interprets Bumps and Impacts
When your vehicle goes over a bump or receives a sudden
force, the built-in sensor causes the REC LED on the unit to flash for several seconds.
This means the
PASSIVE
2 has bookmarked the event. When an event is bookmarked,
you can easily categorize and find the particular moment in the Event window when you
encountered the sudden bump or impact. See “Viewing Recorded Video Files” for
details on how to find videos by events.

PASSIVE
2 to record at maximum quality, and marks
the event as "Emergency" when viewing the file in the
PASSIVE
2 viewer.
When you press the emergency button:

can configure.
b. The video is tagged as an "Emergency" event that you can later search and
categorize the video using the included
PASSIVE2
Viewer. The video records at
maximum resolution (30 FPS).
