Parkmate Dash Cams - Locking recordings

Modified on: Fri, 1 Aug, 2025 at 10:49 AM


Using the loop recording feature, all dash cameras are able to record indefinitely by creating recording a few minutes at a time, one after the other, and putting them into the SD card, the dash camera will replace old files with new ones. In order to protect footage from being overwritten, it is recommended that you:

  • Export the footage
  • Press the lock button during recording or in playback settings

The G-sensor will also lock a recording if it detects impact.


Please ensure that you are exporting locked recordings, as when the SD card becomes full of emergency files, the oldest emergency files will begin to be replaced for newer ones.
