The Power Of Parking Mode
BlackVue dash cams automatically switch to Parking Mode to monitor your parked vehicle. With video buffering, a few seconds before an event is triggered are also recorded. BlackVue supports two Parking Mode options.
Motion & Impact Detection mode
Motion & Impact Detection Parking Mode detects both:
- Motions: Recorded by the image sensor (marked “P” in the file list).
- Impacts: Detected by the accelerometer/G-sensor (marked “E” in the file list).
Choose detection regions to reduce the risk of triggering unwanted motion recordings due to trees swaying in the wind, far-away moving objects, etc.
Time lapse mode*
- Continuously records at 1FPS (one frame per second). Videos are played back at 30FPS.
- 1-minute Time lapse Parking Mode video = 30 minutes real time coverage.
- Cover a period of more than 62 hours on a single 64GB microSD card at the highest (Extreme) quality setting. When an impact is detected, the dashcam creates a buffered Event video.
(*) Not supported by DR590X Series models.
