- GKU Type-C Step-Down Power Cable
- 4 Types of Fuse Adapters (ATO/ATC, Mini/ATS, Micro2, Mini Low Profile)
Image: The package includes four distinct fuse adapter types: ATO (ATC), MINI (ATS), Micro 2, and Mini Low Profile. Each adapter is shown with its specific dimensions to aid in identification and proper selection for your vehicle's fuse box.
4. Setup jeung Instalasi
Proper installation is crucial for the functionality of the parking monitoring feature. This cable requires connection to both constant power (B+) and accessory power (ACC) sources in your vehicle's fuse box, along with a ground connection.
4.1 Identify Cable Wires
- Kawat beureum: Connects to a constant power source (B+) in the fuse box. This provides continuous power for 24-hour parking monitoring.
- Kawat konéng: Connects to an accessory power source (ACC) in the fuse box. This power source is active when the ignition is on and turns off with the engine. It signals the dash cam to switch between driving and parking modes.
- Kawat Hideung: Connects to a metal part of the vehicle chassis for grounding.
4.2 Léngkah-léngkah Instalasi
- Locate Your Vehicle's Fuse Box: Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual to find the fuse box location (usually under the dashboard, in the engine bay, or in the trunk).
- Identify Fuse Types: Determine which type of fuse your vehicle uses (ATO/ATC, Mini/ATS, Micro2, or Mini Low Profile) and select the corresponding adapter from the package.
- Find Constant Power (B+) Fuse: Using a circuit tester, identify a fuse that has power even when the ignition is off (e.g., hazard lights, interior lights, radio). Insert the red wire's fuse adapter into this slot.
- Find Accessory Power (ACC) Fuse: Using a circuit tester, identify a fuse that has power only when the ignition is on (e.g., cigarette lighter, radio, power windows). Insert the yellow wire's fuse adapter into this slot.
- Nyambungkeun Kawat Ground: Securely attach the black wire to a clean, unpainted metal bolt or screw on the vehicle's chassis.
- Nyambung ka Dash Cam: Plug the Type-C connector of the step-down cable into your dash cam's power input port. Ensure your dash cam uses a Type-C port.
- Uji Instalasi: Reconnect the vehicle's battery. Start the engine to confirm the dash cam powers on. Turn off the engine and remove the key to verify the dash cam switches to parking monitoring mode.
- Kabel Rute: Carefully route and conceal the cables to avoid interference with driving and to maintain a tidy interior.
Image: This illustration highlights the importance of using a Type-C compatible device. The GKU Type-C Step-Down Power Cable is designed exclusively for devices with a USB Type-C input, and is not compatible with Micro USB or Mini USB ports.
5. Parentah Operasi
Once installed, the GKU Type-C Step-Down Power Cable operates automatically with your vehicle's ignition.
- Modeu nyetir: When your vehicle's ignition is on (ACC power active), the dash cam will receive full power and operate in its standard recording mode.
- Modeu pangimeutan parkir: When your vehicle's ignition is turned off (ACC power inactive), the cable will continue to supply power from the constant power source (B+), allowing your dash cam to activate its parking monitoring features (e.g., motion detection, impact detection).
- Low Voltage panyalindungan: The cable features built-in low voltage protection. If your vehicle's battery voltage drops below a safe threshold (typically around 11.8V for 12V systems or 23.6V for 24V systems), the cable will automatically cut power to the dash cam to prevent excessive battery drain, ensuring your vehicle can still start.
6. Pangropéa
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your GKU Type-C Step-Down Power Cable, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Inspeksi rutin: Periodically check all cable connections, especially at the fuse box and the dash cam, to ensure they remain secure and free from corrosion.
- Routing kabel: Ensure cables are not pinched, frayed, or exposed to sharp edges. Re-secure any loose cables.
- Kabersihan: Keep the cable and connectors clean and free from dust or debris.
- Cek sekering: If the dash cam stops receiving power, check the fuses in the adapters and replace them if necessary with fuses of the correct rating.
