Passos d'instal·lació

1. Localitza la caixa de fusibles: Identify your vehicle's fuse box. This is typically located under the dashboard, in the glove compartment, or in the engine bay. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for the exact location.
2. Identificar les ranures dels fusibles: You will need to identify two types of fuse slots:
   • ACC (Accessory) Fuse: This fuse provides power only when the ignition is on. Use a circuit tester to find a fuse that is live when the car is on and off when the car is off. Connect the fil vermell of the hardwire kit to this fuse using a fuse tap.
   • B+ (Constant Power) Fuse: This fuse provides continuous power, even when the ignition is off. Use a circuit tester to find a fuse that is always live. Connect the filferro groc of the hardwire kit to this fuse using a fuse tap.
3. Connecteu el cable de terra: Locate a metal bolt or screw on the vehicle's chassis that is directly connected to the car's metal frame. Loosen the bolt, attach the black wire (ground) of the hardwire kit to it, and tighten the bolt securely. Ensure a good metal-to-metal connection.
4. Encamina el cable: Carefully route the 10-foot Type-C USB cable from the fuse box to your dash cam's mounting location. Tuck the cable neatly along the windshield trim, headliner, and A-pillar to conceal it and prevent interference with driving.
5. Connecteu-vos a la Dash Cam: Plug the Type-C USB connector into your DDPAI dash cam.
6. Prova la instal·lació: Start your vehicle to ensure the dash cam powers on. Turn off the vehicle and remove the key to verify that the dash cam enters parking monitoring mode.

4. Instruccions de funcionament

Once the hardwire kit is correctly installed, the operation of the parking monitor is largely automatic, managed by the dash cam's settings and the kit's intelligent power management.

Monitorització d'aparcament les 24 hores

When your vehicle's ignition is turned off, the hardwire kit continues to supply power to the dash cam from the constant power (B+) connection. The dash cam will then automatically switch to its designated parking monitoring mode (e.g., time-lapse recording, motion detection, or impact detection), as configured in your dash cam's settings.

IPS Power Management

The integrated IPS (Intelligent Power System) in the hardwire kit, combined with your DDPAI dash cam's power management system, continuously monitors your vehicle's battery voltage. Si la bateria voltage drops below a preset threshold, the hardwire kit will automatically cut off power to the dash cam to prevent excessive battery discharge, ensuring your vehicle can still start.

Refer to your specific DDPAI dash cam's manual for detailed settings related to parking mode and low voltage cut-off thresholds.

5. Manteniment

The DDPAI Hardwire Kit requires minimal maintenance. Regular checks can help ensure optimal performance.

• Comprovació de la connexió: Periodically inspect all connections (fuse taps, ground wire, Type-C USB connection to dash cam) to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion.
• Encaminament de cables: Ensure the cable remains neatly tucked away and is not pinched or exposed to excessive heat or sharp edges.
• Integritat del fusible: If the dash cam stops receiving power, check the fuses in the fuse taps. Replace any blown fuses with ones of the same amperage.

6. Solució De Problemes

If you encounter issues with your hardwire kit, refer to the following troubleshooting guide:

Dash Cam Does Not Power On in Parking Mode

• Check B+ Fuse: Ensure the yellow wire is connected to a constant power fuse and that the fuse itself is not blown.
• Verify Ground Connection: Confirm the black ground wire is securely attached to a clean, unpainted metal part of the vehicle chassis.
• Dash Cam Settings: Check your dash cam's settings to ensure parking monitoring mode is enabled and configured correctly.
• Voltage: Si el volum de la bateria del vostre vehicletage is too low, the IPS power management system may have cut off power to protect the battery. Charge your vehicle's battery.

Dash Cam Does Not Turn Off with Ignition

• Check ACC Fuse: Ensure the red wire is connected to an accessory fuse that only receives power when the ignition is on. If it's connected to a constant power fuse, the dash cam will remain on.

Vehicle Battery Drains Quickly

• IPS Threshold: Ensure your dash cam's low voltage cut-off setting is configured appropriately for your vehicle's battery health. A lower threshold will allow the dash cam to run longer but increases the risk of battery drain.
• Parking Mode Duration: Excessive parking mode recording (e.g., continuous recording for very long periods) can still drain a battery over time, even with IPS protection.
