Understanding loop recording
When the MicroSD memory card in the dash camera is full, the camera continuously overwrites the oldest footage recorded. To protect a specific video clip against being overwritten, press the SOS Video button. The emergency record icon appears on the screen. Files can also be protected from the playback menu in Video Playback mode.
Using emergency recording
An emergency recording is initiated when the SOS Video button on the lower left of the Video screen is pressed or when the G-Sensor registers an impact. Emergency recordings create protected (locked) files that are not overwritten by continuous loop recording. In addition, to make sure that important footage isn’t lost surrounding an incident, adjacent video clips are locked if the incident happens within 30 seconds of the beginning or end of a clip.
Downloading files from your dash camera

- Download the files to your computer into a directory you can easily find.
- Right click the device, then select Eject from the option list that appears.
- Remove the memory card and replace it into your dash camera.
