The main window of the Roadhawk RH-1 software gives you full control of your recorded data files. The large image to the left of the screen is the video taken with the RH-1. Directly under this is a graph showing real time G-Forces of the X,Y and Z coordinates.
Towards the lower part of the window is the video transport control.
The right hand side is the Google Maps Overlay and file management. Below this are the option controls for loading video and data files from the SD card.

The video transport control panel works like any other VCR or media playing software. In the middle of this panel is the current vehicle speed and this can be toggled from MPH to KPH by clicking on the blue circle.
Towards the right hand side of this panel are the option controls that allow capture of JPEG still images from the video. Video play speed and volume control as well as the settings tab for changing options within the RH-1.

Video file menu

The video file menu shows all the stored video files your SD memory card.
Each file has a number and a file name and each file will have an event status attached to it. The event status will tell you why the video file has been stored "shock", "emergency" etc.
When you click any of these files you will see a preview frame from the video appear below. Double clicking the file name will start playing the video in the main video window. Multiple files can be selected by clicking whilst holding "CTRL" on your keyboard.

Google map overlay panel

The Google Map overlay displays the position of your vehicle relative to the time the video was taken in real time. You can display the map in normal "map mode" or choose "satellite" or "hybrid" modes to overlay satellite imagery of the surrounding area.
At the top of this panel are buttons for skipping to the previous or next video files. Video resolution is displayed here as is the file name and type.
By hovering the mouse over the GPS button, a pop-up window will display your 6 figure positional coordinates, your heading and the vehicles current speed. The number of satellites being tracked at the time the video was being recorded is an indicator to the accuracy of the GPS data.

Roadhawk RH-1 settings panel

The device settings panel is used for changing the way the RH-1 operates. You can select resolution, video quality and determine how much force is required measured in G's for the unit to activate.
Time can be set for how long before and after the Roadhawk RH-1 records for on event.
Record type sets how the RH-1 triggers. In single mode only alarm events will be kept on the SD card. In multi-mode the unit will record continually on a loop deleting the earliest files when the card is full. In Multi-mode, events are also stored as a separate file so you can navigate directly to an event using the file manager panel.

The RH-1 software supplied is both intuitive and easy to use. There are no complicated settings to be made and the software is small in size and technically quite basic so it will run on just about any computer running any windows operating system.
Each time you put a blank SD card in to the RH-1, a copy of the viewing software is copied to the card. This means you can easily view the video files on any computer without having to carry around the installation disks. It also means you'll never lose a copy of the software.

PLEASE NOTE: The software is not yet compatible with MAC operating systems.
