Setting up Jimi dash cameras

Jimi DVRs are configured using simple text commands. You just send the device the required command, and it starts working according to your settings.
With these commands, you can:
— connect the DVR to a server
— specify where to send video and trip data
— enable live streaming
— set up automatic video uploads for specific events
In this guide, we’ll go through the commands that help you start and properly configure your device.
 

Main сonfiguration сommands

1. Allow server connection

COREKITSW,0
This command allows the DVR to connect to the PILOT VIDEO server. It activates the device’s ability to work with the platform and is usually the first step in the setup process.

2. Telemetry server setup

SERVER,1,<domain name>,20056
or
SERVER,0,<IP address>,20056
This sets the server where telemetry data (movement, speed, events) will be sent.
  • 1 — use a domain name (e.g., server.example.com)
  • 0 — use an IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.100)
  • 20056 — communication port

    3. Video upload server setup

    UPLOAD,<https://server_address/upload>
    The address where video files will be uploaded, for playback or event recordings.

    4. Live streaming server setup

    RSERVICE,<rtmp://server_address/live>
    Sets the RTMP server for real-time video streaming.

    5. File list server setup

    FILELIST,<https://server_address/filelist>
    The address where the DVR sends the list of available recordings.

    6. Automatic event video upload

    UPLOADSW,<Event>,<Mode>
    This command sets which events trigger automatic video uploads and which cameras to use.
  • Event — the event that triggers the upload (e.g., CRASH, SOS, OVERSPEED).
  • Mode — how videos are uploaded:
    — OFF — disable automatic upload
    — ON — upload from both front and inward cameras
    — 1— upload only from the front camera
    — 2 — upload only from the inward camera
    Example: UPLOADSW,CRASH,ON — when a crash occurs, the DVR will automatically upload video from both cameras.
