Setting correct Day/Time

Postby DarkHelmet on Tue Oct 13, 2020 7:37 am

I used the 'Set Clock' icon in V2 Video Manager to supposedly set the clock in the camera and after much fussing I did get a 'Success' message but the video data still shows a date from 4 years ago- any idea how to get this error corrected? The file names do have the correct date/time showing but the actual video and metadata for the video are wrong.

Hello-

I'm trying to set my Day/Time, did you get any resolution?

I don't even see how to get started, in the V2 software I see 'No Gateway Found' when I navigate to that. I tried a USB cable - do I need to be connected to the vehicle CAN bus instead? There's no instructions I can find about this. Thanks for any help

I answered my own question, the Gateway is by connecting via CAN. I could get two gateways, one through connecting to my ADL3 via ethernet, and another via UTC on the CAN bus.

With both, the set clock dialog seemed to just get stuck. It says it may take awhile, but I left it for hours. It took me a couple of days fiddling around, trying all kinds of things. Finally worked with the SD card in, but Automatic Start turned off, and the UTC on the CAN Bus.

But, it didn't really work. I got a success message but the day & time didn't actually change...

Any help out there would be great
