[Firmware Update] DR900S (1.011) DR750S (1.016) with IR Support, SD Card Failure Alert

New firmware is available for the DR750S (1.016) and DR900S (1.011) Series. 

Both introduce an option to turn off the proximity sensor (for those who would like to avoid triggering it by mistake).
The SD Card Failure Alert function will tell you “Check SD card” as soon as the microSD card becomes “write protected”. Prior to this update, the “Check SD card” message only meant that the dashcam could not read the card. With this update, the dashcam also checks that data is written properly. If you still get a “Check SD card” message after formatting the microSD card, contact Customer Support for further troubleshooting (Live chat, call +1 (844) 694-4469 or email at [email protected]).
Finally, you can now connect the Full HD Interior IR or External TRUCK IR cameras to your DR900S-2CH front camera.
