This dash camera uses the Roadcam app to take photos and view recorded footage.

‘AP_WIFI’ network and tap to connect (password: 12345678).

This Wi-Fi network does not have internet access. If your mobile device prompts a

warning regarding no internet access on the Wi-Fi network, tap ‘Connect’. If this is

Do not change the Wi-Fi password.

the home screen and the W-Fi network should be displayed. Tap the orange icon to

GPS

This dash camera has an in-built GPS function to track the vehicle’s location as it records

footage/takes photos.

When the dash camera is turned on, wait for a few minutes until the satellite icon changes

from white to green. Once it turns green, it confirms the GPS is working normally.

Menu/Mode button

Press the menu/mode button to access the feature and system menus.

Press and hold the menu/mode button to enter photo mode. The mode allows users to

capture photos of the camera’s current view.

Up/Lock button

When in menus, use the up/lock button to move up through the menu options.

When recording video, press the up/lock button to lock video footage. This ensures the

footage is not overwritten or erased from the MicroSD card. This may be useful if witnessing

or in an accident that requires footage as proof.

Down/Record button

When in menus, use the down/record button to move down through the menu options.

When in the app main interface, press the down/record button to start/stop recording

footage.

Note:

If there is thick cloud cove, or the vehicle is underground or near densely packed

buildings, the dash camera may have a weak GPS signal and be unable to locate your

vehicle.

Adjusting the time

After the GPS is working normally, the dash camera will display the time. To change the

time, enter the settings and change the time to match your time zone.

Replay

Press and hold the replay button to replay footage.

Resetting

To reset the dash camera, use a pin to press and hold the reset button for six seconds. The

Wi-Fi network will also reset.

Downloading and viewing videos

download. Press the download icon.

2. After the video has downloaded, turn off the W-Fi on your mobile device.

3. Enter the Roadcam app again and tap the Album icon on the home screen.

4. Select the video that was downloaded and you will be able to view the footage. The

footage will simultaneously show the location of the vehicle on a map throughout the

duration of the footage.

Viewing videos on the computer

GXPlayer can be used to view footage on the computer. Similar to viewing on the phone,

the footage will simultaneously track the location of the vehicle whilst its driven.

include the user guide and download link.

When installed, remove the MicroSD card from the dash camera and insert it into your

computer’s MicroSD card slot. Open GXPlayer to view and import footage.
