1. Step 1: Test Power Sources

   Use a multimeter to identify a 12V constant power source (always on) and an Accessory (ACC) power source (on when the ignition is on) in your car's fuse box. Ensure the chosen fuse slots are appropriate for drawing power.

2. Step 2: Set Up the Wires

   Nyambungkeun Yellow Wire (ACC) to the identified ACC power source. Connect the Red Wire (VCC+) to the identified constant power source. Connect the Black Wire (GND-) to a metal grounding point on the vehicle chassis.

   Catetan: Some vehicles, particularly newer models or specific brands like Subaru, may use micro fuses that require specific fuse adapters for proper connection. The kit does not include fuse adapters, which may need to be purchased separately depending on your vehicle's fuse type.
3. Step 3: Connect the Dash Cam

   Route the Type-C cable neatly to your dash cam's mounting location and plug the Type-C connector into the dash cam's power port.

5. Fitur operasi

Once properly installed, the hardwire kit unlocks several key features for your BOTSLAB dash cam:

Secure Parking Protection:

The hardwire kit enables continuous monitoring of your vehicle for up to 24 hours while parked. This includes:

• Ngarekam Selang Waktu: Rékaman footage at a reduced frame rate to conserve storage space, capturing extended periods of surveillance.
• Collision-Triggered Normal Recording: Automatically activates normal recording mode upon detecting an impact or collision while parked, ensuring critical event footage is captured.

Battery Drain Prevention:

The hardwire kit incorporates under-voltage protection, which automatically cuts off power to the dash cam if your vehicle's battery voltage drops below a safe threshold. This prevents excessive battery discharge, ensuring your car can start reliably.

  • Confirm that the Type-C connector is fully inserted into the dash cam.
  • Pastikeun batré kendaraan gaduh muatan anu cekap.
• Parking Mode Not Activating:
  • Confirm that both the ACC (yellow) and VCC+ (red) wires are correctly connected to their respective power sources. Parking mode requires a constant power supply.
  • Check your dash cam's settings to ensure parking mode is enabled and configured correctly.
• Vehicle Battery Drains Quickly:
  • While the kit has under-voltage protection, prolonged parking mode in extremely cold weather or with an aging battery can still lead to discharge. Consider reducing parking mode duration if this occurs frequently.
  • Ensure the under-voltage protection threshold is set correctly in your dash cam's settings (if adjustable).
• Difficulty Connecting Wires to Fuse Box:
  • Some vehicles require specific fuse tap adapters for a secure and safe connection to the fuse box. If the bare wires cannot be safely inserted or wrapped around the fuse legs, acquire appropriate fuse taps for your vehicle's fuse type (e.g., mini, micro, ATM, ATO).
