1.2 OverviewJC400 series uses 4G network for communication. For these dual-channel digital video recorders (DVRs), except to be able to record simultaneously, the two cameras can also record locally and live stream remotely at the same time. The front-facing HD camera is used for real-time recording; while the cabin-view camera with IR LED for monitoring at night time. Combined with DM S, driving behavior analysis, multiple alert options, and much more, they can assist the management in monitoring the vehicle condition and the driver’s behavior at any time. This is very useful to coach driver’s behavior, improve management efficiency, and lower operation costs, making the JC400 series an ideal option for remotely managing ridesharing, rental, public, government, and enterprise fleets.1.3 Appearance and LEDs1.3.1 Main Unit
