ADAS Event Definitions 3.1 ADAS Event Definitions To better understand the settings and functions of ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) events in the Event tab, review the definitions and related conditions below. Event Type Event Definition Detection Conditions & Configuration Values FCW Forward Collision Warning - Detects an imminent collision with something ahead. Detection Conditions Vehicles must surpass a minimum speed and be moving within the configured speed range.
DSM Event Definitions 3.2 DSM Event Definitions To better understand the settings and functions of DSM (Driver State Monitoring) events in the Event tab, please see the definitions and sensitivity conditions below. Event Type Event Definition Event Details Fatigue Driver Fatigue Warning (DFW) – Driver is yawning or has prolonged eyelid closure. Calibration Requirements Driver position requires manual calibration through the KP2 Installer App for initial installation.
DSM Event Definitions Sensitivity % measures the change in degrees of the driver’s head area. 30% to 50% is recommended. More than 90% is not recommended. Associate this value, 90% (90°), with the maximum change in head area. Distraction event triggers must meet the following condition: The driver’s face exceeds the calibrated head area by the sensitivity % for longer than the sensitivity time.
Device 4 Configuring Your Device Goal: Personalize and optimize device settings 4.
Device Camera 1. Activate your road-facing camera channel, CAM2. A KP2 driver-facing camera is required. Deactivating CAM2 removes the ability to change video channel settings in the Record tab and DSM settings in the DSM tab. Power Connection 2. To automatically apply appropriate power settings, select the device power Type. Using KP2-Cig-PWR prevents access to Power On/Off settings. 3. Manually adjust these values to your preferred ACC On Voltage 12v and ACC On Voltage 24v. 4.
Device Power ON/OFF 5. Select the time your KP2 remains on after ignition off with Delayed Power Shutdown. 6. Enter a Power Off Voltage. This signals the device shut down due to declining vehicle battery voltage to protect battery drainage. 7. Set the time your KP2 stays awake during its Wake-up Interval by choosing a Register Interval. 8. Set a time that your KP2 powers on again after shutting down by selecting your Wake-up Interval.
Record 4.
Record Channel 1. Select your Resolution for CH1, CH2: • HD (720p), FHD (1080p). 2. Select from the following Frame Rate (FPS) options: • 30, 15, 10, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 and 0. 3. Choose your default video Quality from the following: • Normal, High or Super Bitrate. Higher-quality video contains more detail but consumes more storage space on the SD card. Note: Selecting different video recording options may affect your ondevice storage capacity. Video Data 4.
Record 5. Set the Continuous+Event ratio of video data recording (applicable only when you set Continuous+Event record mode). 6. Select your Pre-Event setting to determine the amount of time video records before an event 7. To set the amount of time video records after an event, select a PostEvent setting. 8. Parking Mode reduces your camera’s FPS to 1 when your vehicle is idle for 5 min. • Click Record Audio to turn on the device’s internal microphone for audio recording.
Record 9. Protect SD card data from being easily viewable by entering a 4 to 8digit Encryption No. • Set how long video data remains on the SD card before being rewritten via Data Retention Period. Telematics Data 10. Select the Data Retention Period, or how long telematics data (DRV file) remains on the SD card before being rewritten. • Use the Data Usage Calculation to estimate your SD card’s storage capacity based on your applied recording settings.
Event 4.3 How to Configure Event Tab 4.3.
Event > G-Sensor G-Sensor 1. Automatically scale G-Sensor speed thresholds by clicking Auto adjust GSensor to vehicle speed.

To specify event recordings for camera channels 1 and 2, check Record CH. • Only available for Event and Continuous+Event modes. 3. Turn on in-vehicle notifications for GSensor event triggers by clicking Speaker.
Event > G-Sensor 6. Events generate when the X, Y or Z axis acceleration exceeds the set G-Sensor threshold for Emergency Call Trigger (Severe Shock). Click Custom to set personalized GSensor sensitivity settings. 7. High Impact events occur if acceleration exceeds the X, Y or Z axis threshold (Activate the Z axis via Turn Z Axis on). 8. Harsh Accel/Brake events generate if acceleration exceeds X, Y or Z axis thresholds.
Event > G-Sensor 9. Harsh Turn events occur if acceleration exceeds the X, Y or Z axis threshold. 10. Check High Impact Trigger to limit alerts to high-impact events. This disables Accel/Brake and Turn events.
Event > Misc. 4.3.2Misc. Fields Event > Misc.
Event > Misc. Panic Button 1. Determine your Panic Button response settings. 2. To obscure camera channels 1 and 2 during Panic events, check Mask CH. 3. To prevent the device’s audio recording during Panic events, check Mask Audio. Overspeed 4. Set your speed threshold for recording Overspeed events by entering a Speed Limit. • This accounts for vehicle speed only, not posted speed limits. 5. Turn on audible alerts for Overspeed events by clicking Speaker.
Event > Geofence 4.3.
Event > Geofence Geofence Set virtual boundaries for your device to trigger Geofence events. 1. To trigger a Geofence, check Use. 2. Select the Type of Geofence. • In activates a Geofence when the vehicle enters a geographic boundary. • Out activates a Geofence when the vehicle exits a geographic boundary. 3. Audibly notify drivers that they’ve crossed a Geofence’s boundary by clicking Speaker. 4. To obscure camera channels 1 and 2, check Mask CH. 5.
Event > Geofence Zone Selection To set Geofence boundaries on Google Maps, click Zone Selection. Set up to 20 Geofence zones. 1. Search for a geographic region by entering an address and clicking Go. 2. Change the name of your Geofence in the Title text field. 3. Click on the map to set a perimeter.

Event > ADAS 4.3.
Event > ADAS 1. Turn on ADAS feature capabilities by clicking Use. This gives you access to enable ADAS events and change individual settings independently. 2. To mark the Bonnet Position (vehicle hood’s horizontal pixel line) and Horizon line, click Set. 3. Mark the Camera Height on the windshield. This measurement is from the ground to the center of the camera lens. Set your camera height in 10cm increments. • Example: if the height is 173cm, set the Camera Height as 170cm.
Event > ADAS ADAS Type 4. Click HMW to activate the event type. 5. To set the amount of time your vehicle must be within a speed/distance window to trigger an event, select a Sensitivity. 6. Establish the Speed range for event activation. The configurable threshold must be surpassed for HMW in each speed window. Within this window, events will trigger. 7. Set the Distance threshold.
Event > ADAS 10. Select a Multiple Event Escalation Time. If the vehicle exceeds the number of tailgating instances set in Lv2 Counter during the Escalation Time, event severity escalates to Lv2 or “Level 2.” • Example: A time of 100 seconds with an Lv2 setting of “3” is set. If an event triggers more than three times, the event raises to Lv2. 11. Choose the Lv2 Counter or number of event instances required during the Escalation Time to raise severity. 12. Check FCW to enable the event type. 13.
Event > ADAS 14. Select LDW to enable the event type. 15. Set the Left line and Right line Sensitivity. This determines the AI confidence level regarding solid lane line detection. • Lower line detection sensitivity results in fewer events triggered. • The higher the line detection sensitivity, the greater number of events triggered. • A setting of 3 is recommended. Note: LDW lane detection does not incorporate color recognition.
