FEATURES AND OPERATION
Memory Card required for operation
The Navcam-HD requires a Micro SD card (not included) to record video / image
content.
(see page 9 for a table showing SD card capacity and the relevant amount of
video / image content able to be stored).
For optimal performance, we recommend
using a Class 4 Micro SD card (the most common type) to ensure fast data transfer
rates.
Power on/off function (auto on/off)
To turn on the Navcam-HD, press the power button on the side of the device. To
turn off, press the same power button.
When connected to the 12v DC socket (cigarette socket) of your car, the Navcam-HD
will turn on and off automatically when the car’s ignition is turned on or off. If the
Navcam-HD does not turn off immediately it means the device is completing the file
save process before turning off (usually only a few seconds).
If the 12v socket is “constant on” (in some European vehicles), then the Navcam-HD
will need to be turned on/off manually by the power button.
Whilst connected to the car’s 12V DC socket (or from a powered USB hub or PC USB
port) the LED indicator will glow red (battery is charging) and will be off once the
battery is fully charged.
To turn off the LCD display on the unit (but with the unit still recording), press the
▼
button. (ideal for night time driving)
Auto Record when turned on
When the NAVCAM-HD is turned on (either by pressing the power button or auto
on) the device will automatically begin recording. To stop recording, press the OK
button or disconnect the power cable.
Installation on the car windscreen
The NAVCAM-HD works best when mounted centrally and high up on the
windscreen (typically behind or close to the rear vision mirror). Use the supplied
windscreen suction mount to affix the Navcam-HD to the windscreen and then
adjust the mount until you can see a clear view of the road ahead on the LCD.
Using the 270 degree swing lens function
The lens section of the NAVCAM-HD can be rotated up to 270 degrees. This is ideal
for better camera positioning or for recording inside the car (passengers). Should the
