A:AnswerHi HOSS! Indeed the V5 does have the Parking Monitor feature. We also have two different hardwire kits you can use along with it to unlock the feature. Smart Hardwire Kit ( Senses for hard Vibration to turn on the camera and record ) or our new Intelligent Hardwire Kit ( Uses Motion Sensing )
A:AnswerIt requires cables for power. Either a cable that plugs into your cigarette lighter socket, or hardwired to the car. Mine is the latter and it starts recording as soon as a door is opened and it stops after a few minutes from the engine shutting off if I just sit in the car, or a few seconds after I exit the car. You need to download their app in order to pair your phone with the camera and watch and download the videos Wirelessly.
