Setting up Your NEXS1
Updated over 2 months ago

This guide will walk you through how to connect and onboard your NEXS1 with the Nexar Classic app.


Ensuring Nexar Classic Stays Connected With NEXS1

Nexar Classic connects to the dash cam through Bluetooth and WIFI. Please make sure there are no other WIFI networks in the area, and that VPNs, hotspots, and antivirus apps are disabled to avoid having issues during the app and dash cam setup.

Once the initial setup is complete, the dash cam will stream and save drive recordings to your phone so you can watch, trim, or share these videos later.

Nexar Classic works best with a compatible phone and a phone number that is registered in a supported country. Please note that wireless Carplay and Android Auto are not compatible to be used with Nexar while driving as these can interfere with the connection between the app and dash cam. VPNs, hotspots, and antivirus apps should also be disabled to avoid any connection issues when driving.


Connecting and Onboarding Your NEXS1 with Nexar Classic

Here are the steps to connect and onboard your NEXS1 dash cam with Nexar Classic:

1. Download Nexar Classic and sign up

Apple App Store: http://nxr.cm/ios

Google Play Store: http://nxr.cm/android

2. Connect the mount and cable

Attach the mount to the camera, making sure it clicks into place. Then, plug the mount's power cable to the POWER port. Plug the power cable to the mount's power port, then to the car charger.

3. Power on the dash cam

Insert the charger into the car's power outlet. You will know it is receiving power when the charger's blue light is on.

4. Open Nexar Classic

Follow the on-screen instructions. Make sure that the phone's cellular data, WIFI, Bluetooth, and Location are enabled.

5. Mount the dash cam and tuck the cable

Remove the protective film on the camera lens. Check the camera view on the Nexar Classic app and position it where you have a full, clear view of the road and interior camera. Peel off the backing plastic from the adhesive, then firmly attach the camera to the windshield.

6. Hide the cable

Use the installation tool and cable clips provided with the dash cam to hide and secure the cable around the windshield.

You're all set! Start driving safely!
