GPS Module

1. How can I tell if my GPS Module is working correctly?

Answer: 

Check the Green Light Indicator [Satellite icon] LED on the back-left

of   the   camera.    A  solid   green   light   means   that   a   GPS   signal   has   been
established; a blinking green light means that the device is searching for a
GPS signal; no green light blinking or off means that there is no GPS signal,
the GPS module is not attached or the GPS module is faulty.

Troubleshoot optimal usage and placement:

The GPS Module data cable should be attached to the camera as indicated in
the User Manual (page 4) before first use.   The data cable end should be
placed in the left data slot on the top of the camera if you are facing the
viewscreen.  This GPS module tracks movement via satellites; without it, GPS
tracking will not record with the video.   The rectangular end – marked with
“GPS” in a oval – should be attached to a sturdy surface with the adhesive on
the back, under the white pull sheet.   Additionally, hook and loop strips or
plastic clips (not included) may be used on the back of the GPS module to
attach to a selected surface without permanently using the adhesive back.
Some drivers may find placing the rectangular unit under the passenger side
visor a suitable place to hang the device – adhesive or sticker back side to
ceiling; for others this location may add GPS interference and GPS module
should be located elsewhere.

The GPS unit should be placed so it is not loose or swaying as this may lead
to missing or incorrect GPS data.  The GPS module should also be kept some
distance away from the dash camera itself.   The adhesive side should be
facing the ceiling or windshield; the bottom of the “GPS” text should be facing
the front of the vehicle, with the top of the “GPS” text facing the back of the
vehicle.  Deviation from this set up may show improper GPS data in Dashcam
Viewer.

Depending   on   the   location,   weather   or   other   interfering   factors   (similar   to
mobile   phones   or   other   Smart   devices   that   utilize   GPS   signals),   the   GPS
module may take up to several minutes before establishing a solid connection.
Most times, however, a solid connection is made within the first minute.    

The supplied Dashcam Viewer program tracks the recorded GPS information
as video is played.   Lack of GPS data will show up as blank spaces in the
overall route in the Map Window.  Specifics with GPS tracking in the Dashcam
