• Constant Recording: Records continuously from the moment the engine is turned ON until it is turned OFF. The recording duration is dependent on the selected recording size, frame rate, and image quality settings. When the storage capacity is full, the oldest files are automatically overwritten by default.
• Impact Recording: Utilizes a built-in G-sensor to detect impacts. Upon detection, the device automatically saves the current recording segment, along with the preceding and following segments, as protected impact recording data. Oldest impact files may be overwritten if the dedicated storage limit is reached.
• Rikodin da hannu: Allows users to manually initiate a recording by pressing a designated switch. This function saves the current recording segment, as well as the preceding and following segments, as protected manual recording data. Oldest manual files may be overwritten if the dedicated storage limit is reached.
• Rikodin Lokaci-Lokaci: This mode compresses still images captured every second into a short video, enabling extended recording periods. This feature is available during both driving and parking surveillance, making it easier to review long periods of footage da inganci.

Safety Driving Support Functions

The ZDR016 includes several features designed to assist with safe driving:

• Rear Vehicle Approach Alert: Detects vehicles approaching from behind and provides an audible or alarm notification. This function can also automatically save the event as "Rear Vehicle Approach Recording Data."
• Forward Vehicle Start Alert: Notifies the driver when the vehicle ahead begins to move.
• Front Traffic Light Alert: Alerts the driver when a traffic light ahead turns green.
• Drive Support Function: Provides alerts for sudden acceleration, rapid deceleration, or sharp steering maneuvers.
• Vehicle Speed Alarm: Notifies the driver if a pre-set speed limit is exceeded.

Muhimmiyar Bayani: These safety driving support functions are assistive features and are not designed to prevent accidents. Always maintain awareness of actual traffic conditions and drive safely. Some functions require active GPS reception to operate correctly. Performance may vary depending on environmental conditions, weather, the shape and color of the vehicle ahead, and the installation position of the main unit.

Parking Surveillance Function

This function requires the optional direct wiring cord (HDROP-14). It detects impacts while the vehicle is parked and records both front and rear images. Continuous recording is also an option. Recorded parking surveillance footage is saved to a dedicated folder for easy review.

• Impact Quick Recording: This mode activates only when an impact is detected, recording the event. By remaining inactive during normal parking, it conserves power, allowing for extended parking surveillance periods.
• One-Time Parking Surveillance Mode: Allows temporary activation of parking surveillance even if the feature is usually disabled. Useful for specific situations or locations.
• Parking Surveillance Mode Pass Function: Temporarily disables parking surveillance in environments prone to false triggers, such as mechanical parking lots or during strong winds.

Lura: Depending on the main unit's settings and the capacity of the microSDHC card, older parking surveillance images may be overwritten.

Image Quality Features

• High-Speed Start Recording: A newly developed system ensures recording begins immediately after the engine is turned ON, capturing footage from the very start of your drive.
• HDR/WDR for Clear Night Images: Equipped with High Dynamic Range (HDR) and Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) functions, the front camera corrects for overexposed bright areas and underexposed dark areas, providing clear images even in challenging lighting conditions like backlighting or tunnels. (Note: Rear camera does not feature HDR/WDR).
• 2-Megapixel High-Quality Images: Records vivid, high-quality images. This is crucial for clarifying accident causes and facilitating smooth incident resolution. It also allows for enjoyable review of driving memories.
• Bright Night Shooting: Features a 1/2.7-inch image sensor. The enlarged image sensor captures clearer images and significantly improves brightness during night recordings.
• Compatible with LED Traffic Lights Nationwide: Ensures reliable recording even with the varying power frequencies used for LED traffic lights in different regions of Japan.

• No Regular Formatting Required: The ZDR016 utilizes a proprietary file system that significantly reduces file fragmentation on the SD card, minimizing the need for frequent manual formatting.
• SD Card Check Function: Upon startup, the device checks the microSDHC card for damage. If damage is detected, an LED indicator will alert you, helping to prevent missed recordings due to card issues.

Data Protection Features

• Aikin Ajiyayyen: The device's dedicated file system is designed to minimize data corruption and maximize recovery rates in cases of sudden power loss (e.g., during an accident). A built-in super capacitor further enhances data protection.
• Emergency Recording Stop Function: In the event of a severe impact (e.g., an accident), recording automatically stops. This prevents important footage from being overwritten if the device remains powered on during vehicle movement or repairs after the incident. The impact detection sensitivity can be adjusted across 11 levels, including OFF.
