The camera is designed to operate at temperatures of between 20ºc to +70ºc,
operating outside of these temperatures may produce unpredictable results and
should be avoided.
Clean only with a soft dry cloth, being careful not to use excessive pressure
when cleaning the lens, the use of liquids or cleaning fluids may damage the
product and could void your warranty.
The DVR records video in Full high definition 1080P/30FPS at high bitrates,
and a large amount of data is generated for the video recording function. To
prevent recording problems, it is recommended to only use good quality high-
speed Class 10 Micro SD cards with a minimum capacity of 32 GB, High Endurance
memory cards are recommended.
[Note] The DVR does not support the hot-plugging of the Micro SD memory
card. Be sure to remove or replace the Micro SD memory card only while the
recorder is powered off or the memory card and any recordings may be
damaged.
Introduction
The Street Guardian SG9663DCPRO+ Digital Video Recorder is pre-configured with
logical default settings and is supplied ready to use once installed with a
minimum of adjustment needed to personalize to your needs.
The default operation of the product means that it will power on and start
recording shortly after starting the vehicle and will power down shortly after
the vehicle is turned off, the recordings will be segmented into easy to
navigate chapters and once the memory card is full will automatically delete
the oldest recorded segment to make way for further recordings.
Operating in this ‘first in, first out manner means that the camera will cycle
the recordings continuously and will always have the most recent recordings,
for example, a 128GB memory card will store around 6 hours of recordings
before beginning to recycle.
Emergency files created either by activation of the built-in G-Sensor or by
pressing the ok/lock key will not be overwritten when the camera recycles old
recordings.
Camera layout & Overview
The DVR front camera unit should preferably be mounted behind, or to either side of the rearview mirror and within the swept area of the windscreen wipers. Before mounting the DVR ensure that there is enough room for the cables and clean the glass prior to installation to ensure a good bond for the adhesive to the glass, it is always advisable to route any cables across the passenger side of the vehicle to avoid any chance of cables interfering with control of the vehicle or causing a distraction should a cable become loose.
[Note] The rear camera is cabled to the front camera unit, ensure cable alignment and orientation is correct before attempting to connect any cables, if the vehicle is fitted with SRS airbags care must be taken not to inhibit the operation of these systems, professional installation is recommended
- Once a suitable mounting location is decided secure the DVR mount bracket to the windshield using the provided 3M adhesive tape, ensuring the window is clean prior to application, remove the backing tape, and press and hold the bracket firmly against the glass for 2 minutes, then wait 20 minutes before attaching the camera. The adhesive will achieve a 50% bond after 20 minutes, 100% bond is achieved after 72 hours, if the camera is attached to the bracket too soon after installation the adhesive may not bond correctly to the glass.
- Fix the power, rear camera, and GPS cables properly using cable clips (if required) and route all cables across the passenger side, preventing the line of sight from being affected.
- Insert the charging interface of the in vehicle charger into the USB interface of the DVR.
- Connect the GPS and position the cables accordingly, the GPS should be mounted with the adhesive side to the windscreen so that the antenna is oriented correctly, for best performance do not locate the GPS too close to the main camera unit, maintain at least 15cm separation between the camera and GPS antenna.
- Insert the in-vehicle charger into the cigarette lighter socket of the vehicle, if using the optional SGDCHW hardwire kit consult the SGDCHW manual for further details
- Adjust the angle of the DVR lens ensuring that the camera lens is aimed slightly down from the horizon (40% sky, 60% road), this will improve the results of the auto exposure function.
- Ensure a suitable memory card is correctly installed and has been formatted in the camera before use.
[Note] Video performance is adversely affected if the window is not kept clean, ammonia-free automotive glass cleaners are recommended for the inside glass surfaces for optimum results.

powered on the internal capacitors will charge, the DVR will then power up and
