The mini Q9 has 3 ways power supply, car charger hardwire kit and OBDII plug.
Please note that you can not use car charger for parking guard function.
You must use the BMW power charger for parking guard function, power from the Micro USB port don’t have the parking mode.

Remove the car charger when using parking guard function.
Please note that rear camera does not support parking guard function, only for front camera support it.
Step 1: Install the front camera via OBD power plug/hard-wire kit, for more instructions, refer to the previous section of this manual:‘Getting started’>install the dash cam.
Step 2: Set the parking guard function. Go to “camera menu“>parking mode. There are 3 options: off/Time lapse/Normal. Make your selection beforehand. See the following paragraph for more details:

A: OFF.
Choose OFF, when car engine is stopped, there will be ‘ACC OFF’ words on the camera screen , the camera will record 1 minute video and then turn off, it will not record anything even unexpected shocks or collision happen.
B: Time Lapse
Choose Time Lapse, when car engine is stopped, there will be ’ACC OFF’ words on the camera screen, the camera will record 1 minute normal fps video, then will start loop recording in low FPS status (1 fps/second video) when parking.
C: Normal
Choose Normal, when car engine is stopped, there will be ‘ACC OFF’ words on the camera screen, the camera will record 1 minute video and then turn off. it will start 1 minute video record when unexpected shocks or collision happen, then turn off again.
Note: Maybe there is a few seconds delay appear ‘ACC OFF’ words on the camera screen, it depends on the voltage-drop between start the engine and close the engine.

Hi, I'm interested in this dual camera. But the only thing stopping me is this Please note that rear camera does not support parking guard function, only for front camera support it.

I notice this camera is not getting much attention/discussion in this forum. Is there any new firmware update to support parking mode for front and rear camera?

Looking forward to some response. Thanks.
 
Hi Bella, may I know what is the resolution for the rear camera? Couldn’t seem to find the info in AliExpress. Thanks.
