THINKWARE TWA-OBD2 OBD-II Power Cable

Plug-and-Play Parking Mode Power Solution

The THINKWARE TWA-OBD2 OBD-II Power Cable provides an easy way to power your compatible Thinkware dash cam while enabling its advanced Parking Surveillance Mode without the need to tap into your vehicle's fuse box.

Simply connect the cable to your vehicle's OBD-II diagnostic port and connect it to your compatible Thinkware dash cam.

With a 3-metre (10-foot) cable, the TWA-OBD2 provides enough length for a clean and discreet installation in most vehicles.

Enables Thinkware Parking Surveillance

The TWA-OBD2 allows compatible Thinkware dash cams to remain powered after the vehicle is turned off and automatically switch into Parking Surveillance Mode.

Depending on the dash cam model, available parking functions can include:

• Motion & Impact Detection
• Time-Lapse Recording
• Energy Saving Mode
• Radar Parking Mode

Parking features vary by compatible Thinkware dash cam model.

Easy OBD-II Installation

Unlike a conventional hardwire installation, the TWA-OBD2 does not require access to the vehicle's fuse box.

The cable plugs directly into the vehicle's OBD-II port, making it a convenient option for customers who want Parking Mode without installing fuse taps.

Thinkware describes the OBD-II cable as its easiest installation method for enabling Parking Mode.

Built-In Vehicle Battery Protection

The TWA-OBD2 monitors vehicle voltage and uses the vehicle's power state to determine when the dash cam should transition into Parking Mode.

The cable is designed to help protect the vehicle battery by shutting down the dash cam when the configured low-voltage protection threshold is reached.

Gas, Hybrid & Electric Vehicle Compatible

The TWA-OBD2 is designed for use with:

• Gasoline vehicles
• Hybrid vehicles
• Electric vehicles
• Stop/start-equipped vehicles

Important: Compatibility can vary by vehicle. Thinkware specifically notes that the TWA-OBD2 is not compatible with all Tesla models.

Parking Mode Activation

The OBD-II cable detects changes in vehicle voltage and works with the dash cam's G-sensor to determine when the vehicle has entered a parked state.

Depending on the vehicle, there can be a short delay before Parking Mode activates.

Thinkware notes that gasoline vehicles may take approximately 5 minutes plus the configured standby time, while EV/hybrid vehicles may take approximately 10 minutes plus the configured standby time.

Cable Length

Cable Length: 3 metres / 10 feet

The generous cable length allows the wiring to be routed discreetly from the OBD-II port to a dash cam mounted near the windshield.

Compatibility

The TWA-OBD2 is designed for use with select Thinkware dash cams.

Not compatible with Thinkware F790 dash cams.

It is also important to verify compatibility with your specific vehicle, particularly Tesla vehicles.
