VIDEO RECORDER
Carefully read the enclosed operating instructions and safety notes before use to avoid accidental damage to the equipment or unintentional injury.

PURPOSE OF THE PRODUCT
The Xblitz S9 Duo Dash Cam, in combination with the rearview camera and Wi-Fi, allows you to monitor your vehicle’s route from both the front and rear and record any traffic incidents. The dash cam is built from the highest quality components.

BEFORE USE

1. It is recommended to use original micro SD cards of class 10 or higher.
2. Before placing the memory card in the recorder, it must be formatted in the computer in the FAT32 or exFAT file system (depending on the card) and then in the recorder.
3. The memory card must be installed when the device is switched off. Failure to do so may damage the card and the device. The same applies when removing the card from the device.
4. Set in the menu:
5. Date and time.
6. Loop recording (adjust recording time). If you disable loop recording, the files will not be overwritten.
7. Set the highest resolution available.
8. Set the G-Sensor to the lowest possible sensitivity so that the camera does not catch bumps in the road and protects unnecessary recordings.
9. Enable WDR mode.
10. When the memory card fills up, the oldest unprotected recordings are overwritten.
11. The camera will start recording automatically every time you switch it on (provided there is no permanent power supply in your car’s cigarette lighter socket).
12. It is recommended to use the functions of the device according to their intended use, i.e. not to use the PARKING MODE and MOVEMENT DETECTION functions while driving. This may cause the recording to start and stop automatically and unnecessary loss of storage space.
13. Sound: the device has a condenser microphone that records all ambient sounds. Sounds may overlap causing distortion.

CAMERA INSTALLATION

1. Choose where to mount the camera. It is best to position the camera so that the display preview shows as much of the area in front of the car as possible and the horizon line is in the centre of the frame. Make sure the camera will not obstruct the driver’s view while driving.
2. Mount the bracket on the windscreen and then install the video recorder with a formatted micro SD memory card in it.
3. Route the USB power cable so that it does not obstruct the view while driving.
4. Route the rear camera cable and plug it into the AV socket on the device. Make sure on the camera display that the main device can see the rear camera, if not check the settings in the menu and that the camera cables have been installed correctly.
5. Place a second camera at the rear of the vehicle.
6. Plug the power cord into the device and the power supply plug into the car’s cigarette lighter socket.

INSTALLATION OF A REAR-VIEW CAMERA

The location of the extra camera included in the kit is up to you. The camera complies with the IP65 waterproof standard (protection against access to hazardous parts, dustproof protection, protection against a 12.5 l/min water jet directed at the housing from either side). The red wire coming out of the rear view camera should be connected to the power wires of the reversing lights (red = plus). This connec-tion results in a rear view camera.
The installation leading to the outside should be well insulated and not subject to mechanical stress.

MAIN FEATURES OF THE CAMERA

1. Camera modes
   The camera has 3 modes of operation. Recording mode: in this mode the camera records video. Photo mode: in this mode the camera takes photos. Playback mode: view footage recorded by the camera.

2. Loop recording
   The camera divides the recordings according to the selected time. When the memory card fills up, the oldest (unprotected) recording is overwritten.

3. Resolution
   The camera can record in various resolutions. The higher the resolution the better the quality of the recordings, but the recording files also take up more space on the memory card, it is recommended to use the highest resolution.

4. G-Sensor
   Gravity sensor. When the sensor is activated on impact, the recording file is protected from being overwritten. It is recommended that the lowest avail-able value is set, as at a higher value the camera may pick up bumps caused by unevenness of the road, which can cause the memory card to fill up.

5. Audio recording
   Along with video recording, the camera can also record audio.

6. Motion detection
   The camera has a motion detection mode that automatically starts a short audio/video recording when a moving object (e.g. a person approaching the car) is detected. To avoid unnecessary clogging of the memory card in the device, only activate the motion detection mode when you leave the car parked.

7. Rear-view camera
   A rear camera is included to record video from the rear of the vehicle. The dash cam can record video from both the front and rear cameras simultane-ously without any loss in quality or resolution. In addition, when connected to the power cables of the reversing lights, the image from the rear camera will automatically appear on the display when you shift into reverse, making it easier to park the vehicle.

8. Parking mode
   When this function is activated, the camera will automatically start overwrite-protected video for several seconds after detecting an impact due to an external collision (if the battery is charged or a constant power kit is connected).

FAQ

1. Device does not switch on, screen flashes
   Before starting up, charge the unit’s battery and check the connection in the cigarette lighter socket.

2. The device does not switch on/off automatically
   The reason for this behaviour may be the constant power supply in the cigarette lighter socket.

3. The camera stops recording / does not overwrite recordings
   Check: G-SENSOR – a function by which recordings with recorded overloads (e.g. uneven pavement, braking, driving off a kerb or over a speed bump, etc.) are protected from being overwritten. If you use this function, you must periodically format the memory card on your computer and then on the camera. Ultimately, each file on the data carrier will be protected from being overwritten and the device will not be able to record a further route – it will not record in a loop. We suggest setting the sensor according to your driving style and road conditions. You can also disable the option completely, in which case each oldest file will be overwritten and the card will not need to be formatted periodically. After adjusting the function, remember to format the memory card.

4. The camera turns on and off
   Check: PARKING MODE/MONITOR and MOVEMENT DETECTION – function designed to operate while the vehicle is parked. Deactivate the function, before setting off, as it may cause the camera to switch on and off and make random fragments of route recordings. If the functions are disabled, check if the fault occurs without the memory card inserted.

5. The camera records fragments of the route / random ongoing recordings Check: MOVEMENT DETECTION – a function designed to operate while the vehicle is parked.
   You need to deactivate the function, before setting off, as it can cause the camera to switch on and off and make random fragments of route record-ings. If the function is deactivated, check that the fault occurs without a memory card inserted.

6. The device shows the message “card full” or does not read the card Check the “G-sensor” and “parking mode” functions and set them to mini-mum. The card must be formatted in the computer in the FAT32 or exFAT file system (depending on the card) and then in the recorder.
   Also check: Is the selected card capacity and specification (micro SD, class 10 – U1, V10 additionally recommended) suitable for your device (we recom-mend using cards from reputable manufacturers, we recommend: Kingston, Samsung, Sandisk). If you encounter an error at any stage, replace the card with a new one from an official distribution.

7. The device records noise, distorted, unclear sound
   The device has a highly sensitive microphone that records any ambient noises. The recorded sounds may overlap. Windscreen air vents can also distort the sound.

8. The device does not respond
   Press the Reset button briefly or return the device to factory settings.

9. Transverse stripes are present in the footage
   Incorrect setting of the frame rate value. Set the frequency value to “50Hz” or “60Hz” depending on local settings.

10. Handle detaches from windshield/does not stick
    Degrease the surfaces well before mounting the holder on the glass. Remember to avoid high temperatures, which can cause deformation of the holder, and damage to the recorder itself.

NOTES:

• G-SENSOR – a function thanks to which recordings with recorded overloads (e.g. uneven road surface, braking, driving off a kerb or over a speed bump, etc.) are protected from being overwritten. If you use this function, you must periodically format the memory card on your computer and then on the camera. Ultimately, each file on the data carrier will be protected from being overwritten and the device will not be able to record a further route – it will not record in a loop. We suggest setting the sensor according to your driving style and road conditions. The option can also be completely disabled, in which case each oldest file will be overwritten and the card will not need to be formatted periodically.

• PARKING MODE/MONITOR – a function designed to operate while the vehicle is parked, uses battery power if the video recorder is fully charged – (if it has a built-in battery) . In this case, the camera starts recording a few seconds of video after detecting a shock – until the battery is discharged. When using this function, bear in mind the battery of the device, which needs to be recharged after the function activates (starts). You should deactivate the function, before setting off on a journey, as it may cause the camera to switch on and off and make random fragments of recordings from the route.
  The constant power supply in the vehicle may cause this function to behave differently, e.g. leaving the camera on, which may drain the car battery.

• MOVEMENT DETECTION – a function designed to operate while the vehicle is parked – requires constant power and the camera must remain switched on. The dash cam will start recording automatically when motion is detected, and will stop recording a few seconds after there is no movement in front of the camera lens. Please note that this function can drain the car battery.
  You need to deactivate the function, before setting off, as it can cause the camera to switch on and off and make random fragments of route footage.
  CAUTION : Use only the original charger with a charging current of 5V/1A. (Do not connect directly to a 220/230V socket). Failure to follow the instructions may damage the camera or lead to dangerous situations.
  Due to continuous product improvement, the manufacturer reserves the right to change the device and its kit without prior notice, some functions described in this manual may change
  slightly different in reality.
