Parking mode recording constantly

[Haskins]

As per the tile my dash cam seem to record constantly!

It will be triggered in parking mode record a protected file and then record for 5mins. It will then power down and straight away repeat the process. It's like the camera is always being triggered except there is no reason for it to do so!

Any thoughts??

Hello,

Please perform a Parking Mode test:

1) Bring the camera inside your home/office. Plug the camera in using the USB cable. Ensure the Blue LED is illuminated and that the cam is receiving power.
2) Make sure the cam can record, you may need to select 'POWER ON' on the screen if plugged into a PC.
3) Ensure Parking Mode is turned 'ON'.
4) Put the camera on a flat, still surface.
5) Press the record button. The camera will start recording a normal file.
6) Now leave the camera still. After a period of inactivity, the camera will turn off.
7) Once the cam has turned off, shake it.

If the camera turns on and records with a padlock on the screen, Parking Mode is functional.

After 30 seconds, does the dashcam then turn off automatically please and then stay off?

Kind regards,
Millie
