The Gnet G-ON1 Cloud is one of the first dashcams with Cloud technology and certainly one with the best value for money. Cloud technology allows images to be stored in the Cloud via an in-car Wifi hotspot so you can log in to the camera from a remote location. Besides this option, the G-ON1 Cloud delivers exceptionally good performance and comes very complete with Continuous power supply, GPS module and Wifi dongle.
WithCloud service
The best thing about this Gnet G-ON1 Cloud is the ability to connect to the dashcam from anywhere in the world. You can connect the Gnet G-ON1 Cloud to the internet via an in-car Wifi hotspot. Via the WithCloud app, you can then watch live updates from the dashcam and receive notifications of events. This allows you to always keep an eye on your car, wherever you are.
With the optional SIM Wifi adapter (see accessories), you can easily create an in-car Wifi hotspot. Simply connect the SIM adapter to the dashcam where the Wifi adapter is located. You then simply connect the Gnet G-ON1 Cloud to the Wifi network via the App so that the dashcam is connected to the internet.
Accessible via the App or PC, the WithCloud system is a comprehensive Fleet management system with the following options:
- Live streaming of images
- Live GPS tracking
- Parking mode notifications
- Driver reports (driving time, behaviour etc.)
- Geo-fencing (virtual location Barrier)
The free WithCloud account allows unlimited Live remote viewing and has 2GB of Cloud storage. You can also watch back up to 10 minutes of saved footage, footage is stored for up to 2 days. For unlimited access and more storage, paid subscriptions are available from $10 per month.
Wifi
The Gnet G-ON1 Cloud is equipped with Wifi to allow images within about 10 metres to be viewed on the phone. Images can be viewed and downloaded via the freely available app, eliminating the need to remove the SD card from the camera. By viewing the files via Wifi instead of the Cloud, you don't lose any data via the SIM card.
GPS antenna
The Gnet G-ON1 Cloud comes with external GPS antenna. This GPS module allows the speed to be displayed on screen and also keeps track of the coordinates of the places filmed. This allows you to later use the supplied software to see exactly where certain recordings were made.
FullHD 60fps + FullHD 30fps
The Gnet G-ON1 Cloud films with sharp FullHD 1080p resolution in 60fps at the front and FullHD 30fps at the back. The 60fps means the footage is very smooth and many details such as license plates and people are recognisable in the image.
The rear camera is connected to the front camera with a long supplied 6-metre cable and also receives power via this cable, so no additional power supply is needed. For longer vehicles, a 9-metre cable for the rear camera is available (see accessories).
Automatic Time Lapse parking mode
The Gnet G-ON1 Cloud has a convenient automatic Time Lapse parking mode function to secure the car when parked. In this Time Lapse mode, the camera takes two photos every second and this is later played back as accelerated video.
With Time Lapse mode, the videos do not take up too much space and can therefore be recorded for a very long time without filling up the SD card. Combined with the supplied Hardwire kit, parking mode automatically switches on when the car ignition is turned off and normal recording starts again when the car is started.
Automatic low voltage cut-off
To use parking mode, the dashcam must be connected with the supplied Continuous power supply. As a result, the Gnet G-ON1 Cloud dashcam has a built-in low voltage cut-off system. Because of this system, the dashcam senses when the car battery is about to run out and, if so, immediately switches off the camera. So you don't have to worry about ending up with a dead battery. The voltage can be set to 11.3/11.5/11.8/12.0/12.3V via the App or PC viewer.
ADAS 2.0
The ADAS 2.0 system on this Gnet G-ON1 Cloud is a built-in ‘Advanced Driver Assistant System’. This system supports the driver while driving in three ways:
FCWS: ‘Forward Collision Warning System’. This system issues a warning when approaching a vehicle in front at high speed. The system alerts, for example, when there is a traffic jam in front of the car. With a good GPS signal, the current speed is known and the camera can make a good estimate of the situation around the car.
LDWS: ‘Lane Departure Warning System’. When the car is in danger of changing lanes on the motorway, the camera can give a signal.
FVSA: ‘Forward Vehicle Start Alarm’. Do you also sometimes fail to pay attention when standing at traffic lights? This system gives a warning when a vehicle ahead starts to move away, for example at a traffic light or in a traffic jam.
*The ADAS system works better in some locations than others depending on the type of (highway) road. On narrow roads, for example, the LDWS system can sound an alarm faster than on wide roads. Our personal experience is that on European roads, the system often issues an alert too quickly, so it can sometimes be perceived as a nuisance.
90˚ rotatable
The G-ON1 Cloud's camera can be rotated by 90 degrees and can therefore always be properly aimed at the road.
Includes 32gb Micro SD card
The Gnet G-ON1 Cloud supports MicroSD cards up to 512gb, making it unique. It comes standard with a 32gb Micro SD card, this is good for around 6 hours of FullHD recording (with rear camera so 2x 3 hours).
Optional OBD power supply
As an alternative to the standard Hardwire kit, it is also possible to connect the G-ON1 Cloud with the Plug&Play OBD plug. You simply plug the connector into the car's OBD input, and after connecting it, the G-ON1 Cloud automatically switches on and off from parking mode when you turn the car's ignition on and off.
Optional cigarette power supply
It is also possible to use the optionally available cigarette power supply for easier installation. With this, the dashcam will automatically switch on and off with the car ignition. Please note that parking mode using the cigarette power supply will therefore no longer work.
If you do not want to connect the dashcam to the car's fuse box but still want to use parking mode, it is best to use the OBD power supply mentioned above or a Cellink Battery pack (see accessories). This allows you to easily power the dashcam when the car is parked.
160˚ + 150˚ wideview lens
This Gnet G-ON1 Cloud has a wide-angle lens of 160 degrees at the front and 150 at the back. This captures a very large area around the car.
H.265 HEVC compression
This Gnet G-ON1 Cloud stores the super sharp video footage on the SD card with the latest H.265 HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding). In short, this means that the dashcam uses less memory than other FullHD dashcams. So the files are of the best quality but don't take up too much memory on the MicroSD card.
G-sensor
Thanks to the built-in G-sensor, the dashcam notices when you have had an accident. Upon impact, images are automatically saved securely so they are not lost. They can no longer be overwritten or deleted via the dashcam.
Built-in microphone
The Gnet G-ON1 Cloud has a built-in microphone so that sound is also recorded. The microphone can also be switched off if required.
Date and time recording
The current time and date are always displayed on screen so that it can later be shown at what time the relevant recordings were made.
