Booting

 

Once the VT1000 has been wired to your car power source the VT1000 will be 

boot up, this will take around 1 minute for the unit to be ready to record. 

The default setting for record is the continuous recording at 30fps, 720P 

resolution. This setting allows for separate event and panic recordings. On this 

setting the SD card storage may be used up quicker and depending on the settings, 

overwrite or stop recording when full. To avoid losing valuable data, back up data 

to a separate storage or PC device after any incidents.

“Continuous”)

 

This is the default mode for recording. In this setting the unit will begin recording 

after boot up and record the entire time the unit is powered.

The resolution and frame rates can be set as per your requirements. You can change 

the configuration of the recording using the VT1000 Software. To do this, please see 

the ‘Settings’ section on page 15.  

NOTE: The unit will not start recording immediately after power on. It takes 

around 1 minute for the built‐in power backup system to charge. Thereafter, the 

internal flash memory will be ready to record.

“Event”)

 

The unit will record when triggered by either an impact or a push of the ‘PANIC’ 

button. In such events, 15 seconds of pre and post events will be stored separately on 

the SD card.

NOTE:

When recording at 30fps, (1080P HD) resolution, separate event files (Shock and 

Panic) will not be stored. If you wish to keep separate event files, change the 

settings to a lower resolution or frame rate. 

For example, 1080P @ 10fps or 720P @ 30fps 

Parking mode:  If G‐Sensor value is not changed during 5 minutes, the record 

frame rate will be automatically change to 1FPS. When a vehicle starts to move 

then the parking mode will switch off automatically and start the continuous 

recording immediately

This “Parking mode” can be set when the record mode set as “Continuous”.
