3dwin Neutral Newbie September 14, 2011 Share September 14, 2011 Hi, anyone using the Mobile-i f1000 DVR for their car? I would like to check if is it a must to use the cable and 12V power adapter provided by them in order for the auto start and off to work when the car engine is switched on or off? I have set mine to recycle: 500m but use my old car camera's USB cable to power it and it won't start or stop by itself when I on or stop my engine. I have yet to use the cable provided by them to try. Hope someone can enlighten me on this point. Thanks ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unfair 3rd Gear September 14, 2011 Share September 14, 2011 i think you have to wait 10-15s after pulling out your key for it to stop. if you just off your engine, your electricals are still running. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrianli Hypersonic September 14, 2011 Share September 14, 2011 Read the manual. If its same as DOD-tec, u must select USB-in then it will auto start and stop. Sorry, I dont have this car cam. Just my guessing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

3dwin Neutral Newbie October 7, 2011 Author Share October 7, 2011 Let me check and confirm on this point. will get back to you I have checked mine. not problem with the date and time problem. maybe you shd disconnect from the power source and see if your build in battery can power up the set after half day or so. If cannot, I think it is the build in battery having problem. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Changky 1st Gear October 7, 2011 Share October 7, 2011 Thanks for the reply. When connected to the car, the dvr battery showed fully charged. Once removed from power source, it indicates low battery. Now charging the dvr at home and see if the battery is functioning properly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
0wnage 2nd Gear October 7, 2011 Share October 7, 2011 I've just started using it a few days ago. There's no problem with the date and time for me. The video quality is very good too anyway, thanks 3dwin for your answer! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
