I have a DR550GW and im having some issues getting parking mode to work the way id want it to..
The car park where i work is pretty busy with cars/people coming and going almost constantly, the result of which is that the DR550 in parking mode records video almost constantly 24/7. What i'd like to do is disable the motion sensing and just use the G-Sensors to start recording if something actually hits my car (It's happened twice so far in this car park and is the reason that i got the cam!).
Setting the Motion sensing to 0 in parking settings actually seems to make it very sensitive (as opposed to turning it off) and with it setup like this very small changes in the image from either camera will trigger a recording. Setting it to a low value (like 1) seems to make it less sensitive but dosent turn it off - i get a recording approx every 2 or 3 minutes as opposed to every minute with it set this way.
Is there anyone here that uses parking mode and if so, how do you have your parking mode settings configured ?
It would appear that there is something a little strange going on with the settings for motion detection - do i have this the wrong way around ? is 0 the most sensitive and 100 off? (havnt tried that!)
