제품 끝view

The ddpai Hardwire Kit provides a stable power supply to your dash camera directly from your vehicle's fuse box, enabling advanced features like 24-hour parking monitoring without draining your car battery. It converts the vehicle's 12V/2A power to a stable 5V/2A output required by the dash cam.

주요 특징:

• 24 Hours Surveillance: Provides continuous power for parking monitoring.
• 다중 보안 보호: Features automatic cut-off when voltage drops below 11.8V, 12V, or 12.4V (depending on setting), protecting against low voltage, over-current, short-circuit, overheat, and reverse connection.

설치 가이드

Follow these steps carefully to install your ddpai Hardwire Kit.

Step 1: Prepare Tools and Components

Before starting, gather the necessary tools:

• Multimeter or Volt Tester
• Pliers or Fuse Puller
• Piggy Back Fuse Taps (ensure correct size for your vehicle's fuse box)
• Extra Fuses (matching the amperage of the circuits you will tap into)

Step 2: Connect Fuse Taps to Wiring

Connect the correct fuse taps to the male and female connectors of the hardwire kit, matching them by color. Ensure connections are tight, using a crimping tool if necessary, and apply protection over the wires.

Step 3: Identify ACC and VCC Fuses

Locate your car's fuse box (often on the left side of the steering wheel, in the bottom panel). Remove the cover to access the fuses. Use a multimeter or voltage tester to identify the ACC (Accessory) and VCC (Constant Power) fuses.

• ACC(액세서리): Power is supplied only when the ignition is ON.
• VCC (Constant Power): Power is supplied constantly, even when the ignition is OFF.

Avoid removing any critical fuses (e.g., those for airbags). Test each fuse with the ignition OFF to find a VCC fuse (should show ~13V DC). Then, with the ignition ON, test to find an ACC fuse (should show ~15V DC when the alternator is running).

Step 4: Attach Ground Wire

Attach the black ground wire from the hardwire kit to any metal bolt that has direct contact with the car's frame. Ensure a secure connection for proper grounding.

Step 5: Insert Fuses into Tappers

For each fuse tap, insert the original fuse (removed from the car's fuse box) into the 맨 아래 slot. Insert an additional fuse (of equal or lower amperage than the original) into the 맨 위 slot. The top slot powers the dash cam.

Step 6: Determine Positive and Negative Terminals

Using your multimeter, identify the positive (+) and negative (-) sides of the fuse slot you intend to use. With the ignition OFF, test the constant power (VCC) fuse slot. The terminal with power is positive, and the terminal with zero volts is negative. This orientation can vary by vehicle.

Step 7: Connect Fuse Tappers

Insert the fuse tappers into the appropriate fuse slots, ensuring the positive (+) side of the fuse tap connects to the positive (+) terminal of the fuse slot, and the negative (-) side connects to the negative (-) terminal. Repeat this process for both the VCC and ACC fuse slots.

Step 8: Connect Dash Cam and Test

Connect the hardwire kit to your dash cam. Turn on your car's ignition to verify that the dash cam powers on and functions correctly. The LED indicator light on the dash cam should turn blue for normal recording when the ignition is on. When the ignition is turned off and the key is removed, the LED should turn red, indicating it has entered parking mode.

9단계: 배선 연결

Once functionality is confirmed, neatly route the wiring through your car's A-pillar and headliner to the dash cam's final mounting location. Tuck away any excess cable for a clean and professional installation.

작동 지침

Once installed, the ddpai Hardwire Kit operates automatically with your vehicle's ignition.

• 일반 녹화 모드: When your car's ignition is ON, the dash cam will enter normal recording mode. The LED indicator light on the dash cam will typically be 파란색.
• 주차 모니터링 모드: When your car's ignition is turned OFF and the key is removed, the dash cam will automatically switch to parking monitoring mode. The LED indicator light will typically be 빨간색.

문제 해결

If you encounter issues with your hardwire kit, refer to the following troubleshooting tips:

Issue 1: Parking Mode is ON with Ignition ON

If your dash cam enters parking mode while your car's ignition is on and running, this indicates an incorrect connection for the ACC wire.

• 해결책: Recheck the connections for your ACC (red) wire. Ensure the fuse tap is correctly oriented and inserted into a fuse slot that only receives power when the ignition is on. Verify that the fuse itself is not burned out.

Issue 2: Camera Does Not Turn On

If your dash cam does not power on at all, it suggests an issue with the constant power connection or grounding.

• 해결책: Check the connections for your VCC (yellow) wire and the black ground wire. Ensure all connections are tight and secure. Verify that the VCC fuse is correctly installed and not burned out. Recheck the ground connection to the car's frame.

Issue 3: Parking Mode Still Doesn't Work (after checking connections)

If all physical connections are verified as correct, but parking mode does not activate, the issue might be in the dash cam's settings.

• 해결책: Access your dash cam's settings (usually via its mobile app or on-device menu) and ensure that the parking mode feature is enabled. Refer to your specific dash cam's user manual for instructions on navigating its settings.
