Momentum Dual HD Dash Cam
FAQs
Momentum dash cams are an optional accessory to the Eagle One GPS tracker. Both are Plug and Play and automatically sync with your Momentum software. There are no contracts, no upfront costs, and all Momentum hardware comes with a lifetime guarantee.
How many driving hours will an SD card record?

The dash cam ships with a 256GB SD card. At the standard HD setting, that’s about 60 hours of video. You can stretch it to 90 or 115 hours if you lower the quality. When the card fills up, it just overwrites the oldest clips. With both cameras on, you’ll get 60 hours of HD video. Road-facing only? Up to 120 hours.

Is the dash cam always on?

When connected to the vehicle’s OBD or J1939 diagnostic port, the dash cam will be powered by the vehicle’s battery whether the vehicle is driving or parked.

Does the dash cam record audio?

Yes. Audio recording can be turned on or off for your entire fleet, so you can stay in line with your company policy and local laws.

Can I use just the road-facing camera?

Yes. You can disable the cabin-facing camera. Just know that features like driver ID and cell phone detection won’t work if the cabin camera is off.

Can I download videos?

Yes. You can download dash cam videos from your Momentum account.

Where can I see dash cam video in the Momentum app?

You can stream live video and download clips or still images from the Trips view in your Momentum dashboard.

How do I install my dash cam?

It’s plug-and-play. Each dash cam comes with an 8ft cable that plugs into a standard OBD-II port. For J1939 or 2-Wire installs, adapters are available. A universal mount is included for your windshield or dashboard.

Where should I place the dash cam?

Mount it on the windshield or dashboard—your call. If you put it in the driver’s line of sight, it can double as a heads-up display for speed, fuel, and direction. The adhesive won’t leave residue, and we include extra pads if you need to move the dash cam.

How does it work with an Eagle One GPS tracker?

If your Eagle One is already plugged into the diagnostic port, just use the included Y-cable to connect the dash cam. If it isn’t, plug the dash cam directly into the diagnostic port.

Will the dash cam drain my vehicle’s battery?

No. The dash cam monitors your battery and shuts down if voltage drops below 11.9V for more than 5 minutes.

How long are dash cam clips available?

Any images or video that are captured by the dash cam and uploaded to the cloud will remain available for no less than 13-months as long as the images or video is still stored on the dash cam’s SD card.

Does the dash cam support live streaming?

Yes. You can view both live and historical video. Live streaming prioritizes speed over quality depending on cell signal. For the highest quality, pull clips from the History tab or directly from the SD card.

Does the dash camera offer any driver coaching features?

Yes. The dash cam can alert drivers in real time for speeding or phone use. You can also save and review risky driving clips later.

How can I address concerns from drivers who are uncomfortable with the idea of being recorded?

Commercial vehicles are considered a workplace, so cameras are generally allowed. Still, you’ve got options:

  • Cabin-facing video can clear a driver in an accident.
  • You control who sees video and when.
  • You can use a privacy slide to cover the cabin camera when needed.
  • Or disable the cabin camera altogether—an icon will show drivers it’s off.
Why pick a connected dash cam over a traditional one?

Traditional dash cams put the footage onto a memory card. If something happens, you’ve got to manually pull the card and review the footage on it. That’s fine for a one-truck owner or a family car. With a connected LTE dash cam, you don’t have to mess with SD cards. Video comes straight to your phone or computer, so you can see what’s happening right now or pull up past clips quickly. That means:

  • Faster answers when there’s an incident
  • Proof on hand for safety or insurance questions
  • Less downtime chasing down memory cards

In short: if you’re running more than one vehicle with employees, a connected dash cam gives you the control and peace of mind a basic camera can’t.
