Monitoraggio del parcheggio

This hardwire kit supports dash cameras with parking mode. When your vehicle is turned off, the AZDOME OBD hardwire kit automatically signals your dash camera to enter parking monitoring mode. This allows the dash cam to record events such as collisions or motion detection while the vehicle is parked.

  • Dash Cam Turns Off While Driving: Ensure the OBD connector is fully seated in the vehicle's port. Verify that your dash cam's parking mode settings are correctly configured and not causing unexpected power interruptions. Some dash cams may require specific settings to work seamlessly with continuous power.
  • Dash Cam Not Receiving Power: Check all connections. Ensure the OBD port in your vehicle is functional. Test the dash cam with its original power adapter to rule out issues with the camera itself.
  • Modalità parcheggio non attiva: Confirm that your dash camera supports parking mode and that the feature is enabled in its settings. Ensure the hardwire kit is correctly installed and providing continuous power.
  • Scarica della batteria del veicolo: While the kit has low voltage protection, prolonged parking mode recording in vehicles with older or weaker batteries can still lead to discharge. Consider adjusting your dash cam's parking mode duration or sensitivity settings.
