Micro SD card and installed on the computer).
Note: The recorder produces files that can provide excellent seamless playback (with no gaps
between files). However, while the supplied QtPlayer is fine for playing individual files, it is not
so good for a group of files, as there will be a gap/interruption between each file during
playback. There are other GPS players available without this shortcoming, or the files can be
used in a video editing package and played seamlessly via that (e,g: Pinnacle Studio 15, which
works fine for this).
Connecting the Recorder to a Standard SD TV
(Via the AV port (3))
Connect your recorder to the Standard TV via an Accessory AV cable (1296P recording is disabled).
Connecting the Recorder to HDTV
When connecting to HDTV, you can use high resolution to display video files or pictures. Use a HDMI
cable to connect the recorder video/audio signal to the HDTV (recording is disabled).
Installation in a Vehicle
It is preferable to locate the recorder behind the mirror, on the opposite side to the driver. This will
minimize any distraction from the screen and flashing recording light.
Notes:
1.
A ‘fine’ marker pen will be useful to mark the final fixing point on the windscreen, before
removing the adhesive pad cover.
2.
An external monitor with a larger screen would also assist in finding the best level location. This
can be plugged into the A/V port (3) via a 3.5mm ‘Stereo’ plug (inner is audio, outer is video).
Connect the recorder to the car Aux socket, via the cable provided. Switch on the ignition to auxiliary
power mode and when the recorder boots up and starts recording, press ‘OK’ to stop it recording.
Place it on the windscreen behind the mirror and locate it in the best location for a clear view of the
road (take care to avoid any items in the center that could mask the view, such as a rain sensor).
Important: Most monitor screens tend to have about 4% over scan, so an obstruction not visible on the
recorder monitor, could mask the edge of the view seen via a computer player.
Marking the Final Location: As there is a little bit of ‘give’ between the mounting bracket and the
recorder, it is advisable to hold the recorder by the mounting bracket when you place it at the final
position.
Ensure that it is level and mark the final position with the pen and make a test recording to confirm the
view is level and free from obstruction. Then remove the backing strip from the pad and carefully
stick the mounting bracket to the windscreen (it is easier to do this with the bracket separated from the
recorder).
Run the power cable to the Aux socket, preferably behind the trim on the opposite side to the driver.
Reconnect the recorder and power it up and when it starts recording, press ‘OK’ to stop it. Then select
Menu and set ‘Auto Power Off’ and ‘Power Off Screen’, to something other than ‘Never’
(e.g. the
default of 1min)
.
