FEATURE OVERVIEW 12 DASH CAM MODE How Does Dash Cam Mode Work? Dash Cam Mode allows your Ghost XL to record in a continuous loop. This means that when the memory card becomes full, the camera will record over the oldest footage. If an incident occurs, the Ghost XL Event Detection feature will protect this footage, to prevent it from being overwritten. In Dash Cam Mode the Ghost XL will power on automatically when it detects a power supply. Connect the camera to a car or motorcycle power supply, and the camera will turn on and start recording when the ignition is turned on. When the ignition is turned off, the camera will save the footage and then power off instantly. The interval setting is the duration of the loops that the Ghost XL will record. For example, if you select a 2m interval and record for 20 minutes, you’ll find 10 videos saved on your memory card, each two minutes long. -Press the button to scroll through the modes and navigate to the settings menu.

13 FEATURE OVERVIEW -Press the button to scroll through the menu, until your reach the ‘Dash Cam’ option. Press the button to toggle Dash Cam Mode On/Off. -Press the button to scroll to the next option in the menu, ‘Dash Cam Interval’. Press button to scroll through the available options. Dash Cam Mode can also be toggled On/Off by pressing and holding the button when camera is in Video mode. Event Detection can be toggled On/Off in the settings menu if you prefer to protect your videos manually. WATERPROOF POWER CONNECTION The Ghost XL can be connected to a car or motorcycle power supply for hands-free operation in Dash Cam Mode via the included 3.5mm Power cable.

FEATURE OVERVIEW 14 Video-Lapse Mode Captures a fast-motion video of your trip, allowing you to share a condensed record of your journey. When enabled, video lapse mode will automatically stitch together a timelapse video and save it to your memory card, with no editing required. Simply turn on Video-Lapse mode in the settings menu, select a Video- Lapse Interval, and navigate to Video mode. 2 On the video mode screen a Video-lapse icon will indicate that the mode is enabled. Press the button to start recording, and press the button again to stop the Video-Lapse recording. Note: The Video-Lapse interval indicates how many frames

15 FEATURE OVERVIEW per second are captured. A longer interval will result in a faster playback speed, and a shorter interval will result in a slower playback speed. VIDEO TAGGING ‘Video tagging mode can be enabled in the Ghost XL settings menu. When activated, this feature allows the camera to continuously record video, but only save to the memory card when important footage is “Tagged”. A ‘Tagging Interval’ can be selected in the settings menu, and this will determine the duration of the videos recorded. For example, if a 30s interval is selected and the user presses the button the last 30s of video will be saved to the memory card. The camera will then continue to record for a further 30s, giving a total video duration of 1 min.

FEATURE OVERVIEW 16 The Video Tagging feature requires a class 10 micro SD card with 4GB of free space to function correctly. Please note that video tagging mode cannot be enabled together with Dash Cam Mode.
