ACTUAL VDR-220 INSTALLATIONS
The VDR-220 uses two compact, weather-resistant cameras that can be installed inside or outside the vehicle. Its small recorder can be concealed to help protect the system from tampering and theft.
Flexible installation options support commercial trucks, trailers, construction vehicles, forklifts, motorcycles, golf carts and other specialized equipment.
FAQ
The VDR-220 provides more installation flexibility than a typical dual-camera dashcam. Its two compact, weather-resistant cameras can be mounted in different locations around the vehicle or equipment, while the recorder itself can be concealed.
This makes the system well suited for applications where standard windshield-mounted cameras are not ideal, including commercial trucks, forklifts, construction equipment, trailers and other specialized vehicles or equipment.
VDR-220 model variations can identify differences such as included SD card capacity or IR-camera configurations. For example, the ZT suffix identifies a 128GB configuration, while IR1 and IR2 models designate kits configured with infrared camera options.
The VDR-220 is a two-camera fleet dashcam system that records 720P HD video from two compact, weather-resistant cameras. The cameras can be positioned for road, driver, rear, cargo-area or other vehicle coverage depending on the installation.
No. The standard VDR-220 kit includes 720P HD non-IR cameras designed for flexible interior or exterior installation. For low-light or dark environments, the EX22-CAMIR infrared LED camera is available separately and is also offered in selected kits such as the VDR-220IR1 and VDR-220IR2 series.
