Range Rover Dashcam

Hi all.

Just had the RR Dashcam installed.

Anyone know of any online user guide/instructions or actually htf it works?

Seems to only work when you’re in the car with the App on your phone so it connects to the app Wi-Fi - in which case how would it record movement around the car when remotely parked? This is something it boasted in the description on the build your own screen.

I wanted it to record any movement up and around the car when it’s parked somewhere and send me an alert - is this possible?

Interested to know views on this.

I don't have one but had a loaner 110 with it the other week. Does yours beep when you hit speed bumps? I was thinking about it but the beeping would drive me mad Confused MY23 PHEV HSE

Yeah. That’s the one. Have managed to see this. Doesn’t cover receiving notifications if the vehicle is approached when parked which is what I thought would be the case. Evidentially I don’t think this is a feature offered which defeats the object of having the camera for me. Having said that I guess it’s good to record journeys just in case of an accident. Unless of course it’s my fault 🤣🤣🤣

I have noticed that the rear camera blocks your vision slightly which is a bit pony. It’s basically bang smack in the middle of your view.

Front camera is located the other side of the mirror which is great.

When you're parked up it goes into "parking mode" which means it records what it sees once movement is detected and triggers it. All recordings are saved onto the internal flash card. You can download any that you want into the app on your phone. I don't know any way of getting it to alert you in real time. Mike - MPx

That’s good but I guess you can only access the recordings when you return to the car and reconnect your phone to the camera via wifi - the down side to this is that if your car is stolen, you’ll never know that someone approached the vehicle 🙄

Trust me. If your car is stolen, someone approached your vehicle. Very Happy

...or if you'd got Craig to fit it for you he'd have done it properly and put the rear at the bottom of the rear window where you dont see it at all. Takes more effort of course but we like it to be right don't we... Mike - MPx

True, although in all fairness, this only happens when it's poorly installed. When properly placed, it doesn't obstruct your view.

Okay, first off, the camera comes with a manual on how to connect to it and use it. Ask your dealer for it if he didn't leave it for you in the car. Alternatively, you can download it from the LR website.

Secondly, the camera doesn't connect to the car's internal comms network, so it can't communicate with you when you're not in the car. This sucks balls, but that's the way it works, sadly.

This is correct, but you can adjust the sensitivity level (to shocks) using the app. Otherwise, with the standard settings, it beeps when going over big or steep speed bumps, but definitely not each one.

Haven’t been over any bumps yet so will test.

Have turned the sound down though as the voice is annoying.
I don’t use Sat nav voice either.

“When properly placed, it doesn't obstruct your view.”

👆🏻 checked my cameras placement and it’s bang in the middle of the rear screen as close to the top as possible so can’t see how it can be places elsewhere - when you look in the rear view mirror it’s located directly in the middle of your view 🤷🏼‍♂️ - how else can you place it?
