GPS Alert Functions

The HDR963GW provides various alerts to support safe driving based on pre-registered GPS data. This data can be updated for free.

• Wrong-Way Driving Alert: Warns when entering areas with a risk of wrong-way driving on highways (IC/JCT, SA/PA) or urban expressways.
• Accident Point Alert: Notifies you when approaching locations with a high incidence of past accidents.
• "Hiyari Hatto" Point Alert: Alerts you when approaching dangerous spots on highways, such as sharp curves or steep descents.

• These functions effectively suppress "whiteout" (overexposure) and "black crush" (underexposure).
• Provides clear images even in strong backlight or scenes with significant brightness differences, such as tunnel exits.

microSD Card Management

The HDR963GW utilizes a proprietary file system designed to minimize data fragmentation, allowing for extended use without frequent formatting. However, for optimal performance and longevity of the microSD card, periodic formatting is recommended as microSD cards are consumable items.

• SD Card Check Function: Upon startup, the device checks the microSD card for damage. If an abnormality is detected, an alert is displayed on the LCD screen, preventing missed recordings.

ማጽዳት

Regularly clean the camera lenses and the main unit's screen with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
