The Rexing V1PGW-4K is a dash cam designed to record video while driving and when parked, offering a range of features for vehicle surveillance and incident recording.
Function Description:
The V1PGW-4K serves as a front and rear dash camera system, capturing video footage in high resolution. It includes a built-in GPS logger to record speed and location data, which can be viewed during video playback. The device supports various recording modes, including loop recording, and features a G-Sensor for automatic event recording during impacts. Parking mode functionality provides surveillance for parked vehicles, utilizing either vibration detection or motion detection, depending on the hardwire kit used. Wi-Fi connectivity allows users to connect the dash cam to a smartphone app for real-time video streaming and control.

- Power: Operates on 12V accessory socket/cigarette lighter power.
- Dimensions: Not explicitly stated, but appears compact for dash cam mounting.
- FCC ID: 2AW5W-V1PGW.
Usage Features:
- Installation: The dash cam uses an adhesive mount that attaches to the windshield. The mount piece should be oriented correctly to the roof and hood line of the vehicle, and users are advised to wait at least 20 minutes after pressing the mount onto the windshield before attaching the camera. The rear camera connects to the front camera via an included cable and is typically routed along the vehicle's interior.
- Power On/Off: The device automatically powers on and begins recording when plugged into a 12V accessory socket and the vehicle is started. It can also be turned on manually by pressing and holding the POWER button. The camera will shut down after 3 seconds when disconnected from the power source.
- Memory Card Management: Users must insert a Class 10/UHS-1 or higher Micro SD card (up to 256GB) before recording. The manual emphasizes formatting the memory card within the camera for optimal performance, especially during first-time use. Formatting can be done through the Setup Settings menu.
- Recording Modes:
- Video Recording: Automatic recording starts when the device receives power. LED lights and a red dot blink to indicate active recording. Recording can be stopped by pressing the REC button.
- Loop Recording: The dash cam records continuously, overwriting the oldest files when the memory card is full, unless the files are locked by the G-Sensor.
- Parking Mode (Parking Monitor): Requires a smart hardwire kit (ASIN: B07RN24B7V or B0973MBCT8, sold separately) to activate.
- Vibration Detection: When connected with a Smart hardwire kit, the G-Sensor detects significant movement (impact/collision) and triggers event recording. Users can set "Gravity Sensing" to High sensitivity for this mode.
- Motion Detection: When connected with an Intelligent Hardwire Kit, the dash cam powers up and starts recording when motion is detected, remaining off until motion is cleared. Parking Mode must be turned off on the dash cam for this feature.
- Time-lapse Recording: Records video at one frame per second to conserve memory and reduce review time.
- Menu Navigation: The MENU button is used to access Video Settings (once) and Setup Settings (twice). The REC and MIC buttons are used to toggle through options, and the OK button confirms selections.
- Video Playback: Videos can be played back directly on the device by entering Playback mode (press and hold MODE button twice after stopping recording). The REC and MIC buttons toggle between videos, and the OK button plays/pauses. MIC fast forwards, and REC rewinds. Alternatively, videos can be played back using an SD card reader on a computer with the Rexing GPS Video player.
- Photo Capture and Review: Photos can be taken by pressing the OK button in photo mode (accessed by pressing MODE button twice after stopping recording). Photos can be viewed and deleted in Playback mode, similar to videos.
- Wi-Fi Connect: The Rexing Connect app (available on App Store/Google Play) allows users to connect their smartphone to the dash cam via Wi-Fi. After stopping recording and enabling Wi-Fi in the Video Settings, users can find the dash cam's SSID (B50E_XXXX) and enter the default password (12345678) to connect. The app provides real-time video streaming. Wi-Fi can also be accessed or turned off by pressing and holding the REC button.
- GPS Logger: Records vehicle speed and location. This data is accessible during video playback using the GPS Video player. The GPS signal icon on the screen turns from blue to green when a signal is found.
- Exposure Value: Adjustable setting to control the brightness of the recorded video.
- WDR Mode (Wide Dynamic Range): Enhances video quality in high-contrast lighting conditions.
- MIC (Microphone): Can be turned on or off to record audio.
- Plate Number: Allows users to input their vehicle's license plate number to be displayed on the video.
Maintenance Features:
- Memory Card Formatting: Regular formatting of the memory card within the camera is recommended to ensure proper recording and prevent errors. Users should back up important data before formatting.
- G-Sensor Sensitivity Adjustment: If not using parking mode, it is recommended to set the G-Sensor to low sensitivity to prevent unnecessary locking of video files, which can fill the memory card and cause recording failures.
- Software Updates: While not explicitly detailed in the provided pages, dash cams often receive firmware updates to improve performance and add features. Users should check the manufacturer's website for such updates.
- Cleaning: The manual does not specify cleaning instructions, but general electronic device care would apply, such as keeping the lens clean for clear footage.
