System LED Indicators

There are four indicators in total. Each camera unit has an LED indicator that faces outward (to let others know you have cameras active). The front camera has an LED  indicator that faces the interior of the vehicle and an on-screen indicator (both for your reference). The outward LED indicators on both cameras can be switched off if you  want the dash camera to be inconspicuous to people outside
Go to Setup > Detect Led > select Off > press OK

Outward LED Status Indicators| Inward LED Status Indicator| Screen Indicator| Meaning
---|---|---|---
Solid Green| Solid Green| Off| On – Not recording
Flashing Green| Flashing Green| Flashing Red| On – Recording

Note: In Motion Detection mode, only the inward LED indicator will be on standby.
Once motion is detected, all indicators will operate the same as a normal recording

There are 3 screen view options- Dual view, front camera, and rear camera.
When the dash camera is powered on, press the OK button to switch views or switch off the screen (recording continues). ‘Screen Saver’ setting can also be used to automatically switch off the screen after 1 or 3 minutes of use

Using a Micro SD Card

The camera doesn’t include internal storage and requires a micro SD card to function (Class10+ recommended and 128GB Max Capacity Supported.) A 128GB micro SD card should store around 20 hours of 1080p recordings. Use a high- quality micro SD card for optimum performance. Insert the micro SD card into the front camera micro SD card slot. When the camera is powered on, format it (‘Format’ option in Dash Camera ‘Setup’) to prepare the card for first use in the dash camera. Formatting will permanently erase any data on the micro SD card. For best performance, format periodically (after backing up any important files). ‘Format Warning’ in ‘Settings’ can be set as a reminder

Note : Please use a Class 10 micro SD memory card (Max 128 GB) for reliable recording and performance. Format the micro SD card in the dash camera before first-time use

Installation & Powering On/Off

The diagram below shows the parts and the exact way the cables must be connected. You may wish to connect and test the dash camera system before installing it in your vehicle. For convenient testing in your home, a power bank or wall charger with 1A or 2A USB port can be used as an alternative to the car charger

1. For optimal performance, install the AUKEY DR02 D-PL front / rear camera in the top-center of your front / rear windshield, facing directly ahead/behind. Lens direction can be adjusted up and down as needed
2. Use the 20ft Mini-B Cable (with an L-shaped connector at one end) to connect the two cameras. The L-shaped mini-B connector plugs into the Mini-B AV Input of the  front camera and the other end into the Mini-B AV Output of the rear camera
3. Connect the 13ft USB Mini-B Cable (with a standard USB-A connector at one end) to one of the car charger ports and the front camera Mini-B Power Input
4. Vehicle interior cable routing should be as shown in the following two diagrams. Use the cable clips to help fix the two cables conveniently and safely. Careful placement of  the cables and use of existing trim and carpeting to conceal them will give a tidier finish

Caution : AUKEY is NOT responsible for any damage caused to or by the airbag due to incorrect placement of the device or its cables
5. To power on, insert the car charger into your car’s 12V socket. After powering on, the system will start recording automatically. To power off, disconnect the car charger or connect the mini-B cable

Note:

1. ONLY USE the included cables to ensure optimum performance of AUKEY DR02 D-PL Dash Cam
2. The L-shaped mini-B connector plugs into the Mini-B AV Input (Upper right corner of the screen) of the front camera and the other end into the Mini-B AV Output (Upper  left corner of the screen) of the rear camera

GPS Antenna

This provides accurate location and speed data to the DR02 D-PL that is saved to the recorded videos. This extended information may serve as evidence should any driving disputes or incidents occur

1. Recommended to install the GPS Antenna with a sticker on the upper right corner of the windshield

Note: Speed can be displayed in miles or kilometers per hour
The GPS Antenna will automatically embed your GPS coordinates and speed in all video recordings in the Dash App

Video Recording

Separate files are created for the recordings from the front and rear camera – you can view each camera’s footage separately at full size. The recordings are unaffected by the choice of screen view or switching the screen off

• Loop Recording: Recording will begin automatically after powering on with a micro SD card in the device. Each recorded file is up to ten minutes long, with old footage being replaced when micro SD card storage is full
• Motion Detection Recording: Switch on motion detection in ‘Setup.’ This function is designed to monitor when you’ve parked and left your vehicle but requires a continuous power supply. It will record video each time motion is detected by the front or rear camera
• Time-Lapse Recording: Switch on time-lapse recording in ‘Setup’. This function will capture a picture per second to make a video played at a high-quality 30fps

Emergency Recording

• Manual File Backup
  Press to back up the current file so that it won’t be overwritten. A icon will appear in the top left of the LCD screen to indicate a protected emergency recording is in progress

• Auto File Backup
  Once the G-sensor is activated by a sudden impact, the device will automatically make a recording and protect it from being overwritten. Adjust G-sensor sensitivity in the ‘Setup’ menu
  Note : Enter the playlist or setup menu (or disconnect power) to end emergency recording mode

Snapshot

• Hold down for 3 seconds to take a snapshot while in recording mode
• The snapshot files are located in the \AUKEY\PHOTO folder on the micro SD card
• The icon will be shown after you take a snapshot. This won’t interrupt the video recording

Audio Recording

Turn on/off audio recording by long-pressing when in recording mode (or by adjusting in the ‘Setup’ menu). When audio recording is on, in-car audio will be recorded during video recording. Voicing details of possible hazards that may develop, especially when off-camera, may provide useful information. You can even use it to record car license plate  numbers that may not be captured on the video
