Advanced Recording Features

The BlackVue DR970X-2CH Plus dash cam is packed with various features that help with monitoring your vehicle during every drive. Before viewing any recordings or adjusting the settings, pair this camera to your smartphone via Wi-Fi. Once connected, you’ll also have the option to back up videos and save them directly to the cloud. However, Impact or Motion events are automatically added directly to the cloud, so you never have to dig through hours of footage to find them when needed. The BlackVue DR970X-2CH Plus dash cam will send a notification right to your smartphone should one of these situations occur.

Keeping an Eye on Your Parked Vehicle

Features

• Upgraded 4K Quality
  At the heart of the DR970X series' upgrades is a state-of-the-art SigmaStar CPU and ISP, which have been purpose-built from scratch. Thanks to this advanced technology, the camera can now capture ultra-sharp 4K footage that preserves crucial details like license plates and street signs. Additionally, the camera's 8-megapixel CMOS sensor ensures that even in low-light conditions, every detail is captured with exceptional clarity.
• Swappable Secondary Cameras
  Similar to the DR750X and DR900X series, the DR970X-2CH dash cam provides you with the flexibility to choose between a rear-facing or interior-facing camera. The DR970X series is designed with an additional input port for a secondary camera. This allows you to store your secondary camera and use the DR970X front-only dash cam or switch to the secondary camera when desired.
• GPS, Wi-Fi and Optional LTE
  • GPS
    While reviewing the footage, you can track the location of your vehicle on a map, and the video can also display your speed as an overlay. If you prefer not to have the speed displayed, you can hide it through the settings.
  • Wi-Fi
    Thanks to its Wi-Fi capabilities, you can effortlessly link your BlackVue dashcam to your smartphone or tablet. Moreover, Wi-Fi connectivity allows the camera to connect to the BlackVue Cloud via any mobile or home Wi-Fi hotspot or router. This connection grants easy access to files and settings.
  • Optional LTE
    For the optimal Cloud experience, you have the option to connect the DR970X to the BlackVue Cloud via an LTE connectivity module. The module can be connected via the USB port.
• Optional LTE Module
  With the optional CM100LTE module, connecting to the cloud 24/7 is effortless. This add-on device links to the DR970X front camera through a USB port, enabling a constant internet connection. It also transforms the DR970X into a mobile hotspot for up to five devices. Unlike in-vehicle Wi-Fi hotspots, this module stays active while parked, making your dash camera accessible from any location worldwide.
• 3 Native Parking Surveillance Modes
  The built-in accelerometer (G-sensor) in the DR970X can detect abrupt changes in speed or impacts while driving. Similarly, when parked, it can detect any visible movements around your vehicle, and these incidents are automatically labeled and saved. If a cloud connection is established, you can receive alerts and access the clips from both your computer and mobile device.
  By using the included hardwiring kit or the optional B-130X battery pack, you can hardwire the DR970X to your vehicle's fuse panel for Parking Surveillance Mode. When the ignition is turned off, the DR970X will switch to Parking Mode automatically. There are three variations of Parking Mode available:
  • Motion Detection
    Triggered when the sensor detects movement (marked “P” in the file list).
  • Impact Detection
    Detected by the accelerometer/G-sensor (marked “E” in the file list)
  • Time Lapse Mode
    Records continuously at 1FPS. 1-minute Time lapse Parking Mode video = 30 minutes real time coverage. Impacts initiate a buffered Event video.
• Optional Cloud Features
  • Live View
    Monitor your car in real time.
  • Live Event Upload
    Impact and Motion detection events are uploaded straight to the Cloud.
  • Video Backup
    Move files from the dashcam to the Cloud!
  • Remote Video Playback
    Play videos stored in the Cloud or in your dashcam anytime on your smartphone.
  • Emergency Alarm
    Get a notification whenever something happens to your car.
