Possible. Set the parking mode as you would when using the HW kit. The camera will switch to the parking mode after approx. 5 minutes.

Once you start driving, it should come out of parking mode.

Keeping the camera powered at all times, without a system to shut down power if your battery voltage gets too low, will eventually result in a dead battery.

Quick update..
I think i solved the problem. The problem is in the ground wire from some reason end of the wire lossing signal i dont know why but i cut end of the wire and then connect on mettal frame under the fuse box and now is working perfectly. When i turn off the car it is 12.4 V and after 12 hours on parking mode in low bitrate when i messure voltage is 12.2.

Hi all. For some reason problem is back. Everything worked perfectly for 3 days and now is turning off like before. Somethimes worked 1 hour somethimes 8 hour. Car battery voltage is good not dropping down. Camera is not turning off because of voltage droping i know that because last record clip long exampe 4:52 2:27 17 seconds that means is turning off randomly.

A number of You Tube installers for the Duo say that the power cord must be plugged into the side USB port and NOT the power port if hard wired and using Parking mode. It's tight if the rear cam is also plugged in but it works.
