I test the @thinkwaredashcam OBD-II TOC-300 power cable provided with the Thinkware U3000 dash camera. I see what vehicle battery voltage level (decreasing) will trigger the unit to turn off the ACC power to the dash camera and what voltage level (increasing) will cause the unit to turn the ACC power to the dash camera. I run a test to see if the unit has a low voltage cutoff feature. The voltage level testing is performed without the TOC-300 plugged into a vehicle's OBD-II data link connector port.
In this other video, I perform a series of tests of the TOC-300 while plugged into my car's OBD-II data link connector and I monitor the CANBUS ping 6 and 14 to see if the TOC-300 is monitoring more than the voltage level on pin 16. youtu.be/i6Nwdfc4KgQ
