How to Adjust the Time on a Dash Cam?

Method to adjust the time on a dash cam: Press the menu button once, select the time interface to enter, use the function button to set the time, then click the menu button to return to the main interface. If you find that the time cannot be updated, you need to insert the dash cam's memory card into a computer, create a text file in the root directory of the memory card, input the current time, then reinsert the memory card, remove and reattach the dash cam's battery. A dash cam is a device that records images, sounds, and other related information during vehicle travel. After installing a dash cam, it can record the entire driving process in video and sound, providing evidence for traffic accidents.
Last time I adjusted the dashcam time myself, it felt simple but a bit fiddly. First, power it on, press the menu button to find the settings option, where there's a date and time option. After entering, use the plus/minus keys to adjust the year, month, day, and specific hour/minute. Remember to save after adjusting. Many people overlook this - inaccurate time can affect the credibility of video evidence. For example, if the time doesn't match during a police investigation after an accident, it could be troublesome. Additionally, it's recommended to connect to a power adapter when adjusting to avoid battery depletion midway. If the device supports GPS, enabling automatic time synchronization is more convenient. Regularly checking time settings is a good habit, especially taking a look before long trips to prevent unexpected issues.
