Camera Constantly Locks Files

[cahriad]

Every bump or knock locks the file. I have tried adjusting the sensitivity but no luck. Any thoughts on what may be the problem?

Hmm, that's extremely odd if you've adjusted the sensitivity.

Can we get a photo of how it's attached to your windscreen?

The camera is mounted using the supplied shoe. I have two other cameras that mount the same way and do not constantly lock file at the slightest road bump

Hmm, I think I he camera might need a reset. Hopefully estore009 will help with that

In my old smooth riding car, the B1W g-sensor worked perfectly but in my rough-riding work truck it's hopeless, same as every other cam getting beat to death in there 🙄 It doesn't help that the roads here are in terrible condition 😡

When the conditions all line up against you as they've done with me, you may have to either get used to clearing the locked files frequently or turn the g-sensor off. I just clear the files regularly as that works better for me.
