OK all you electronic techies out there I have a few questions to ask about the A119 V3 Accessory cable.
I have a question regarding the accessory mode cable that VIOFO sells.
I’m electronically savvy and was wondering about the Yellow and Red Wire setup.
I know that the Red is a constant + 12 VDC and the Yellow is +12 volts DC when car is running.
My question is if I didn’t care about my battery and wanted to run the camera 24/7 How does it know it’s in parking mode?
Question #1
Does the camera sense the loss of Accessory Voltage but sees the 2nd 12 volt + is still hot straight from the battery?
Or
Question #2
Does that little voltage regulator/cutoff box in the cable does something special?
Or
Question #3
Does that Accessory cable actually have two 12 volt + circuit in the micro USB plug in the GPS/Camera?
I’m just trying to figure out if that accessory cable even with the low voltage cutoff is nothing more than a voltage regulator cutout or is it more.
