Hello,
I have a A119V3 (Firmware V1.03) hardwired using the 3 wire kit and have tested it's operation by cycling the ignition and confirmed it switches between parking mode and driving mode. I am however a little confused by some of the settings and would like see if a better explanation than what is provided in the manual is available (I haven't been able to successfully capture any parking mode events yet). Also would like to gauge your input on what you have found to be your preferred settings.
1) Parking Mode: I assume I need to select any option here other than "off" to enable parking mode, correct?
1a) Auto Event Detection: Is this motion detection?
2) Parking G-Sensor: Is this always enabled with parking mode and you just select the sensitivity? I have left the car in "Auto Event Detection" and hit the windshield/shook the car but it didn't record anything.
3) Parking Motion Detection: Does this adjust the sensitivity in 1a)? Do you guys find a lot of false positives or missed recording based on setting preference?
4) Motion Detection: How is this different than Parking Motion Detection? Or is this a way to enable a parking type mode should the user not have the 3 wire kit?
Bonus Questions:
- Anyone have experience with the 3 wire kit in newer keyless cars? They seem to do confusing things when it comes to power and aren't as "on/off" as the old physical keyed cars were
- Anyone have experience mounting a dashcam in a subaru with eyesight and highbeam assist cameras? I currently have it mounted to the right of the right eyesight camera in a place that won't interfere but I seemed to have mounted it too high since the wiper blade doesn't clear the cameras entire FOV . Thinking about mounting below the mirror to the right of the highbeam cam.
Thanks everyone!
