    Hi Dieter,

    die Einstellungen passen soweit eigentlich. Den G-Sensor hast Du abgeschaltet, also wird die K7 keine vermeindlichen Unfall Videos erkennen und gesondert abspeichern. Wäre auch meine Einstellung, da es sonst zu Fehlalarmen kommen kann. Außerdem hast Du eine 512MB Karte drin. Bis da ein Video überschrieben wird, dauert es.

    Die Länge der Aufnahmen würde ich persönlich hoch setzen, damit man nicht etliche hundert Aufnahmen hat nach ner Tour. Aber das ist persönliche Vorliebe.

    Das der Parkmodus aktiv ist, ist so gewollt?

    Ach ja…Forumssprache ist eigentlich englisch. 😜

    Gruß,

    Marc

    Hi Danilo,

    when I got my H5, I used it during summer time and had a runtime of slightly above 5 hours. But it is normal that the runtimes decreases at low temperatures, because the chemical processes within the battery are running slower than at high temperatur. This causes the battery voltage to drop earlier under load. The optimal temperature for a Li-Ion battery is around 30 degrees.

    Based on my experience with drones, which have the same problem in cold weather, I would say that a runtime reduction of 40% at 3 degrees is quite normal.

    Regards,

    Marc

    Hi Bob,

    did you try switching your smartphone to airplane mode? Some phones do have problems accessing the K7 (or any other wifi dashcam) when not in airplane mode.

    It has nothing to do with the fps ration. This effect is called “Jello” and and is caused by high frequency vibrations. Every digital camera is more or less probe to this effect. So the only way to solve this is to mount the camera at a different position or to dampen it.

    Hi Kev,

    the factory reset by pressing the button 10 sec does not reset the wifi password. To reset it, you have to re-install the firmware, as explained in the link below.

    Hi Michael,

    late reply, as I was out or order for some weeks due to a surgery.

    For the K2 I did a modified firmware which connected to my home wifi. And as the K3 and K2 share the same base hard- and firmware, this should be possible at the K3, too. But it was more a proof-of-concept than a good running solution. The SSID and password needed to be hardcoded into the firmware. Additionally, the firmware does not allow long and/or complex passwords, which means your home wifi needs to use an easy short password. Not recommendable. And finally, the modified firmware will not allow the use of the Innovv app anymore, as it is not possible to switch back to AP Mode. For reasons I don’t know it did not work to switch from Station Mode to AP Mode with the modified firmware. The AP did not accept any clients then. Of course one could re-install the original firmware to get everything back working.

    If you are able to suffer, you can try your luck by temporarily switching the K3 to station mode. At the K2 it was possible to use some http commands to temporarily switch it to station mode. These settings are not saved, so at next reboot it switches back to AP Mode. But I never tested this on the K3.

    Set SSID and Password:
    http://192.168.1.254/?custom=1&cmd=3032&str=SSID:PASSWORD

    Set Wifi to Station Mode
    http://192.168.1.254/?custom=1&cmd=3033%par=1

    Restart Wifi
    http://192.168.1.254/?custom=1&cmd=3018

    2024-08-23 at 15:16 in reply to: K3 stopped working after BMW GS 1250 Headlight update?

    Hi Michael,

    I had the exact same issue with my K3 and EZcan. It all started after I disconnected the battery for a while for another reason. After that, EZcan stoppped signaling the status of the ignition on the third wire, so the K3 did not start.

    My solution was the same as yours. I resetted the EZcan and re-created the settings and everything was fine.

    Some words about the battery voltage at your GS.

    The battery of the GS is relatively small, which always causes the voltage to drop when the ignition is on but the engine not running. That’s because the GS takes around 5A from the battery with ignition on. So even with a fully charged battery the voltage will drop to 2.6V-2.4V.

    Hi Rick,

    the first test I would do is powering the DVR by USB. Just use normal wall charger for smartphones with at least 2A. If the DVR starts up, chances are good that the DVR is ok and that only the power module got broken.

    2024-05-22 at 15:48 in reply to: K5 open ports, ways of connection

    Hi Rostam,

    sad thing that the old forum with all its content is gone, because there I wrote a long thread about the hidden features of the K5 (and K2/K3).

    Forget the ftp port. There is no ftp server on the K5. But you can use the webserver to completely configure/control the K5 by using special http commands.

    http://192.168.1.254/?custom=1&cmd=x&par=y

    with x being the option you want to set and y being the parameter/command.

    So, as an example, http://192.168.1.254/?custom=1&cmd =8010&par=1 will set the video format to TS, while par=0 will set it to MP4.

    You could also delete a video or all videos at once (cmd=4004), format the sd card (cmd=3010) or do a system reset (cmd=3011)

    Attached you will find a Excel sheet I made with all settings I discoverd so far. Some settings of the K3 also applies.

    Regarding downloading videos, you could only use a http tool like wget to download the videos via the webserver of the K5.

    2024-11-18 at 22:03 in reply to: SD Card Size

    The 32GB recommendation comes from the necessity that the sd card must be formatted in FAT32 for the update process to work.

    As FAT32 does not support volumes larger than 32GB, every OS will deny formatting the card in FAT32. So if a sd card is larger than 32GB, it is very likely not formatted in FAT32.

    Hi Wayne,

    in the URL you wrote http://192.168.1.254/?custom=1&cmd%20=2002&par=28

    The “%20” is wrong here.

    Additionally, if you want to change the resolution setting (or any other setting), you first have to stop recording (http://192.168.1.254/?custom=1&cmd=2001&par=0).

    Hi Morten,

    depending on the loop settings and the size of the sd card, you will end up with a lot of videos before the K5 starts to overwrite the oldest videos. But that’s normal.

    The button can be used for both save recordings and take pictures.

    – one press ==> save video to protected folder

    – press twice ==> take picture
