    What is difference between DAB205 and DAB205S

    Well just updated using your instructions on your site and everything is working fine so no issues. Am I right in saying that to use motion detect when I am not in the car I need motion detection on as well as parking mode on? I may rewire to a live feed again to see if its improved when I have...

    What is difference between DAB205 and DAB205S

    Hi captureyouraction I bought the dome 205 in the UK and you gave me some great help when I was trying to install it. My problem had been that in park mode and having a constant power supply that if it detected movement it would record however when I then got into the car and went to drive off...

    Bought a Dab205

    have even turned off the parking mode now as every time I closed the door it started recording ! I really need to have a look at the footage on the PC to see how good / bad this camera is. On a 3" screen it looks pretty good and the HDR definitely helps in the sun that Scotland is getting at the...

    Bought a Dab205

    I iptelman yes think you are right so its back to switched live and no MD park mode I think as I am more likely to get hit while moving and the last thing I need is for there not to be footage. CYA - thanks for the advice on the GPS, its now on the dash pointing up and although the camera is...

    Bought a Dab205

    ok definitely have a problem. Still live feed hardwired. Set to MD and parking and G sensor etc. Car works fine when parked, records 10 sec clips etc. all good and well. But when driving it often stops recording sometimes after 10 sec sometimes after minutes. There is then a gap of a few seconds...

    Bought a Dab205

    Strange things going on now. Hardwired live not switched with md parking etc on. I drive off and it records but while driving it turns off then on then off etc. No set time between recording lengths etc. However the car is in motion all the time. If I turn MD off then it won't start recording...

    Bought a Dab205

    its at the very top of the screen so in the shaded off area and its also within a few inches of the camera. Once I am happy with all the settings I will be moving the camera a bit anyway to hide it more behind the mirror. At that point I can try and move the GPS although the glue pad on it seems...

    Bought a Dab205

    Pretty much 5 each time. Takes me 10 min to work and I see the mph coming up when I am half way. GPS is just above camera at very top of windscreen. About two metres of cable is stuffed into the roof lining!

    Bought a Dab205

    I rewired my 205 tonight to live feed and it appears to be working perfectly, although need to drive it now and check it turns off etc. But trying it in the garage waving my hand in front of it, it records for 10 sec then it turns off once MD stops and it did not turn the screen on after that. I...

    Bought a Dab205

    ok just updated and all appears to be working ok. I now also have MPH, a new start screen of a merc AMG maybe and a 'goodbye' screen. The are a few other extra points on the menu as well. I now need to rewire back to positive unswitched live feed to see if the camera will work on park mode. A...

    Bought a Dab205

    thanks captureyouraction the supplier said its very easy to brick a dashcam do you think it will be ok to put this on mine? have you done it before? I will then need to wire it back again to an unswitched live feed and see if it works. David

    Bought a Dab205

    Hi I just bought a Dome 205 from Amazon, all appears to work well except for 1 thing. I hardwired the camera with a permanent live feed. Works when driving then when I park up, ignition off, the camera waits for motion (the screen is off) after 10 seconds of recording it stops if no motion is...
