Automobile DVR - Aviline DVR-B, developed by Russian specialists from Envilan, is a universal device suitable for any car. Read, compare, choose everything in your hands.

Frame

The presented device has a rather large housing made of black ABS-plastic. The shape of the hull is a drop-shaped.

On the tail "Drops" there is a connector, resting when it is installed on the windshield into the bog of the ceiling decorative panel.

This design of the device and the installation method allow you to hide the wires out of the housing.

The lens of the recording chamber is located at the bottom of the case.

The length of the housing in 145 mm allows you to avoid overlapping the camera lens (recording zone) sunscreen strip on the windshield.

At the same time, the lens of the camera will be in the zone of cleaning the glass by janitor, which means that the DVR will "write" through the clean windshield.

It is worth noting that the presence of an aluminum alloy enclosure provides an effective heat removal during the operation of the device, without allowing the recorder to overheat.

On the rear (back) side of the case is a folding display with the 5-button buttons to configure the video recorder.

This display can be deployed and fixed the workpiece outside so that the driver can be seen from the camera.

In the original position (screen inside), only a small LED indicator will be reported about the operation of the registrar.

Display diagonal - 6 cm. In the display settings, automatic brightness adjustment is provided.

The left end end is equipped with a slot under the SD card and USB-Micro connector for connecting to a computer.

In the factory configuration of the device there is a memory card for 8 GB.

It is worth noting that in practice (in operation), it is more convenient to use the full-sized SD card, rather than miniature SD-Micro used in many other DVRs.

The convenience of using a full-size SD card is especially felt when it is excavated when it is dropped and it is necessary to look for the subsoil of the cabin.

By the way, in the Aviline DVR-B registrar, you can use cards with a large amount of memory - up to 32 GB.

Setting

To configure the Aviline DVR-B registrar, you need to open the display where the control buttons are located, and call the menu using the "SET" button.

To move through the menu items, special arrows are provided.

With a more detailed test, the menu has found out that the main parameters of the recorder are already configured by the manufacturer, and the user remains only to set the desired date.

The duration of the cyclic video should be selected - 1.3 and 5 minutes.

It is also recommended to adjust the susceptibility of the G-sensor (accelerometer).

With further testing of Aviline DVR-B, it also turned out that it is beneficial from many of its fell on the wide settings for adapting the sensitivity of the G-sensor sensor to the pendant features and specific road conditions.

The specified adaptation feature allows you to avoid excessive accumulation of files that have protection against overwriting, which, in turn, provides significant savings of free memory on the map.

Photographing settings, perhaps, are not close attention, since the "photo" is not the main mode of operation of the DVR.

It is worth noting that in the settings are provided: change the size and quality of photos, setting the sharpness and turn on the time stamp function / date.

At the same time, the stamp is automatically superimposed on the video recording.

Among other things, the registrar has the ability to limit the display time (30 - 60 seconds), as well as the possibility of switching it to permanent operation mode.

In addition, the display has a built-in sensor for automatically disconnecting the display when it is closed.

Protection against theft

Of course, an important distinguishing feature of Aviline DVR-B is its protection against theft.

The factory configuration with the device comes a small keychain, which has only one single button.

This button allows you to activate the operation of the recorder: After pressing the button, the device is activated and starts to work.

The purpose of this idea is quite understandable: if the DVR is stolen, then without an activating keychain it will be inoperable.

Of course, if you try, the device can "make" work and without an activating keychain.

However, it is unlikely that there are many wishing to overcome such difficulties with protection when there are many other "defenseless" devices.

Moreover, for hacking electronic protection, the services of a good electronics specialist will be required.

The manufacturer's calculation is quite simple: after several thefts of such protected registrars, the thieves will remember the "problematic" model and prefer to steal other, unprotected devices.

Quality video recording

Full time video pleased with their good quality and, above all, good contrast and clarity of the image.

The readability of other cars is excellent, which is the most important criterion for assessing the quality of recording.

Also in the picture, road marking and signs are perfectly visible.

As for the light rendering, it can be called optimally balanced.

Night entry in the conditions of urban lighting is quite worthy: car numbers are well read, although sometimes they are "launching" light headlights on unlit roads.
