Hi everybody, new A119 owner, first post, really enjoy reading in here.
In a few threads I have read about the sensitivity of the G-Sensor being way too sensitive for people, even when set to low. I seem to have the opposite happening (V2, FW 3.6). I have set mine to "high sensitivity" and it is almost impossible for me to trigger it. Even if I go over speed humps unpleasantly fast, no trigger. Super hard breaking (ABS kicking in) - no trigger. A door being closed very hard - no trigger. Me tapping the camera itself lightly - no trigger. Only when I tap it properly, as in it visually moves in the (non-GPS) mount, then it triggers.
I am not saying that the behaviour I see is wrong, but it does not seem to be commensurate with what others are reporting. I mean, if the camera is supposed to get triggered in parking mode when someone bangs a door against the parked car - my camera is FAR away from that kind of trigger point. Driving over reflectors (as I have read in the firmware thread) - not a hope.
What settings do others use and what events trigger their cameras? And Viofo, if you read this, what kind of events are generally supposed to trigger the G-Sensor?
