He din't use fuse taps but hardwired the cables "to the back of the fuses".

The dashcam turns on and off with the car and records regularly but doesn't go into parking mode.

The parking mode option is enabled in the settings.

I'm unable to see where the three wires end up but he showed me with a tester that the fuses he used are igniton switched for the acc cable and constant power...

Have to say im finding it massively over sensitive.

I get incident recordings when pulling off from junctions and traffic lights, and in parking mode im getting incident recordings of passing cars and sometimes nothing! Its literally filling a 32gb card as its pretty much constantly recording the most minor motions.

Ive turned all settings to minimum, and its not really improved things, i can't be right surely, anyone else had...

Today is the first day that I've parked my car and left it. It was dark outside when I parked it and as I closed my driver's door, I noticed that the green light on the camera began flashing. I watched it from outside my car for about 2 minuted and it continued to flash. Will the light continue to flash the entire time it's in parking mode?

I did not upgrade, because I had not seen any forum posts about this Firmware, and I could not find any information on what changes in the .07 Firmware.

Is anyone running this Firmware?

Any problems?

Just wired up a dashcam to my mothers Seat Leon. The camera is a Thinkcam F50 and it has Parking mode. Anyway wired the (ACC Labeled) wire to the 12V Socket - which was Fuse 37 if I remember right - down the bottom of the fuse box on a Leon

Put the other cable (Battery Labeled) to the interior lights fused - Fuse 15 or 16 I think

I thought this would work - it didnt

The cameras was powering up when the engine was off and not going off as far as I could tell

It fired up without incident, on the workbench. I've not installed in the vehicle yet as I'm awaiting a CPL Filter that might work on the F50

Comments:
1. I like the voice prompts, that indicate that it is Continuous Recording, GPS is acquired, Microphone is ON or OFF when changed, Event Recording has started (when G-Sensor detects a jolt).
2. The GPS acquires quickly, and I'm still evaluating the accuracy.
3. The Thinkware Dashcam Viewer...
