A: It's as easy to view the images as it is with any digital camera. First you remove the SD cardfrom the vehicle and place it into any SD card reader. You can then either use our free softwareto play an event with audio on your computer or any jpg image viewer software. If a computer isnot available, stores have a photo developing system for viewing SD cards. They will be able toview and print out your images.
A: Mobile Watchman™ systems are very easy to install. While we don’t recommend you install it yourself, simple wire diagrams are included with every Mobile Watchman™ system. It’s as simple as installing a car alarm or even a radio. Though we recommend you use our installer network to perform your install.
A: Car alarms are inadequate in preventing break-ins or even auto theft. Many cities are evenpassing ordinances banning car alarms. The “Club” can be cut and removed, doing nothing toprevent auto theft or break-ins. LoJack might get your car returned but will not tell you who wasresponsible. None of these systems prevents individuals from “keying” your car, denting yourcar or committing a hit and run violation. The Mobile Watchman™ EDR system allows you tosee who is committing a crime against your vehicle, giving you the power to identify the criminaland have them prosecuted. While Mobile Watchman™ EDR may not prevent crime, it putscriminals behind bars.
A: The handful of video monitoring systems currently on the market can all record video whilethe car is turned on and on the road, just like Mobile Watchman™ EDR. However, only MobileWatchman™ EDR has the ability to keep recording events even after the car is turned off andparked. Most crimes against vehicles happen when the car is unattended and parked. MobileWatchman™ EDR gives you protection when you need it most, unlike the other systems, whichonly work when you’re driving, and Mobile Watchman™ EDR costs much less.
A: Mobile Watchman™ EDR is hidden. Even if a criminal knows that Mobile Watchman™ EDRis in the car, they won’t know where to look. Both the mini-cameras, as well as the recordingdevice are hidden in the car in places where it’s not convenient for criminals to reach. Peoplewho steal from cars generally smash and grab; they don’t have time to look for the Mobile Watchman™ EDR device. You can place Mobile Watchman™ EDR in any number of locationsin your car to ensure that it remains hidden and secure from theft.

Mobile Watchman™ EDR usessensors to determine when an event is about to take place, automatically activating the systemto record the event.
A: Mobile Watchman™ EDR CAN act as a deterrent to car-thieves. However, almost no devicewill prevent a criminal from stealing your car if they want to steal it. Car alarms, “The Club”,“LoJack” and other auto-security systems are often just inconveniences to car thieves. WhatMobile Watchman™ EDR does that other systems don’t do is record the face and voice of theperson who stole your car.
A: Mobile Watchman™ EDR uses a sophisticated monitoring system to recognize the strengthof your battery and outside temperature, adjusting its operations appropriately. When thebattery is at full strength, Mobile Watchman™ EDR will constantly record when its sensorsdetect an event. As the battery runs down over time, Mobile Watchman™ EDR recognizes thisand turns itself off, waking up only when the sensors detect a possible event. Moreover, MobileWatchman™ EDR uses less power than your cigarette lighter, overhead dome light orinstrument panel light.
