BLUESKYSEA DV988 Dashcam install
« on: January 23, 2021, 09:24:25 PM »
So I just installed the Blueskysea DV988 dual dash cam and put together a short install rundown for anyone interested on what they are like and if there are any problems during the install.

Is the mic in the screen part or do you have a cabled one?  I have an older model (same as Shiney's) and I keep the panel in the top box with the wired mic placed on my bike's dash.  It gets no wind interference there (admittedly I don't have an ST) except on the odd occasion I pull over to take a photo on a day when I have a tailwind.  an you change the color of the timestamp or is that blue it?  Mine is white.

The mic is built into the screen on this unit. I have not looked at trying to change the time stamp colour. That was default. I have not even set the time and date yet :-)

Are you sure about the mic?  I bought a DV988 recently and put it on my new Xmax earlier this week.  If had one.  This thing with the button and blue LED is also the microphone.  I haven't got around to putting mine on the dash yet so it's in the top box with the unit.  The timestamps are indeed blue and I don't think I can change it.  Oh well, at least I'll know which bike the images came from, not that I am expecting the Xmax to go out of suburbia very often.
