Recorder. Each event file contains 15 seconds prior & 5 seconds post event.
Manual Recording
Press the [RECORD] button to begin recording manually. Each manual file
contains 15 seconds prior to activation & 5 seconds post activation.
Continuous Recording
The continuous recording will be automatically started after the unit is

continuous recording. It will mark the Event area by the G-sensor or Record
button in the continuous recording file which can be easily searched for
during playback.
Built-in power backup (Super Capacitor)
When power to the unit is interrupted, the
Buddy BX1
creates the last file
using the internal Super Capacitor. This will ensure that no vital
information is lost during that time.

A ‘Beep’ sound will occur when recording starts (this can be turned off if
required).
