Record video

Normal video recording

With a MicroSD memory card inserted, every time you turn on the device, it will automatically start recording with the default settings. When you switch your vehicle engine off, the camera will stop recording automatically. A normal video recording file is saved in the “NORMAL” folder (viewable in the GoSure app). The file name is the system time (hour, minute, second) as a prefix.

Emergency video recording

An emergency file will be automatically generated when you either press the emergency button (see 8.1) or the device detects a collision above a certain force threshold. This file will be stored in the “EMGREC” folder (again, viewable in you GoSure app).

Additional functions

Driver fatigue alert

To help drivers keep track of how tired they might be getting, the device comes with a fatigue alert. This takes into account various physiological and journey related parameters; for example, it considers the time of day and the time spent driving. The device will alert you every two hours of driving, to remind you that fatigue could be becoming an issue.
As well this alert, there is also a fatigue indicator on the device’s display. With a low fatigue rating below 60, the indicator is green. When the fatigue rating is between 60 and 80 the indicator is yellow and a warning alert sounds.
When the fatigue rating reaches 80, the indicator turns red and three warning beeps sound.
When you switch on this driver fatigue feature, it’s important that you set correct system time (so it knows at what time of day you’re driving). If you have this feature switched off, the fatigue rating will not be displayed on the screen.
