Hello, I want to add my same experience with k7. I have a R1200 RT my 2010. Connected k7 as manual suggest, first run seems that work all fine. Gps took a while to find the fix (first cold fix?)
Today green light (camera) started to blink slowly for a good part of the route. I still have to check if all the route was recorded, but I noticed the same light behavior.
The Microsd is a Samsung evo 256GB u3.

Today I did another test, started with both cam connected (so the only action I did from previous tests was: disconnect rear cam from front input and reconnect accordingly with instructions (front on front, rear on rear), the trip was about 40 minutes and the system worked as expected, no error, at the middle od the trip I changed also the lenght of the clip (from 3 to 1 minute) it worked also. The cams was quiet cold, the external temperature was about 6 °C, I have to check the clip if it was all recorded, but at this stage it seems it work. I don’t have any other ideas about it, next days I will use again the bike to do another test.

Sure, I contacted also the customer care in this phase. If I connect only one cam it work, tomorrow will not rain here, so I can do the last (I’ll repeat all the combination) test on road. I made a table where I will write down the various combinations and the results.

Yes, I think so. The weather in my area is almost winter-like right now, so the ambient temperature is below 10°C (today is foggy and rainy), so I don’t think the units are overheating (but I’ll check that too). I’ll repeat the test in the next few days. But… if one of the two cameras is faulty, does it also block the other? I mean, I couldn’t see live views from either camera in the app…

Hello Hans,<div>
the green led blink 2 second on, 2 off (more or less) manual tell is protected video recording (is not true, because I deactivated the function)
The yellow wire is firmly connected to ignition cable, also the main cables to the battery.
The sd is a brand new samsung pro plus 128gb and the Samsung diagnostic tell all is ok .
Wi fi connection has no time limit but I disconnect every time the phone when not needed (download video o setup changes).
The connectors are all firmly closed.
Any kind of energy manager (only a normal junction box with fuses)
Today I did these tests
Only Front cam (2mt cable lenght) on front input connector, after the usual few minutes: fault as usual (slow blink of led)
Only rear cam (1.5m cable lenght) on rear connector, it worked for a more time until I turned off the bike.
Only rear cam on front connector, it worked until I turned off the bike.

Hello hans, tried with a brand new samsung pro plus 128gb card, formatted on board, changed lenght of clip from 1 to 3 min, disabled park, g sensor . Started the bike for a short run
At the beginning It worked then:
After few minutes green lights started blinking (i’m convicted that it means means recording stopped).
Took some pictures with the phone
Power off and power on
It work again (but this time I started timing the time),
Fault again and video again
Off&on and restart, Fault again
Went to a shop, restart fault
Conclusion, after 5/6 minutes the power unit fault, if i connect the app the dashcam preview are both blank (black) i can add all videos and photos but the total of clip are only this, too few for the entire duration of the trip.
So I tgink the unit has at least a firmware bug to fix (or hardware)

Ok good suggestion, tomorrow I’ll try it

Usually I format the media on the specific device if there is the command (garmin virb docet 😊), and also in this case I formatted the samsung evo u3 on device. anyway in the attached foto you can see there are several videos missing (except from 18:31 to 18:54, when the bike was off), and the missing video coincide when I noticed the slow blinking. I can format it and try again
-
After a check, I can confirm that many videos (1 minute clip) are missing, could be a coincidence but the video storing missing coincide with the green light slow blinking (This issue coincide with k5 manual indication)
In the microsd I found 2 subdirectories (movie_E and EMR_E)
-
Yes hans, I read the manual, but I’ve the doubt because in K5 manual the slow blink means “no recording” I known they are 2 different devices but same remote, I work with a staff of SW engineers (but i’m mechanical) , so i’m worried about sw bugs in general 😅…my doubt started from how to quantify the indication on the manual, “flash twice/second for me means 2 flash in a second (, but the remote flash more slow as in video, 2 second on, 2 second off), anyway I have to check the card if all was recorded, probably the main unit suffered some shacking from potholes or patches on the road.
