GreenRoad Video Download Control

This new feature gives you full flexibility to define, per event, which video clips should be downloaded and at what severity level. 

By default: 

  • All video clips are downloaded for camera-based events. 

  • Only Red Severity (high-risk) clips are downloaded for safety events. 

With Video Download Control, you can easily customize these settings to fit your needs, and be able to: 

  • Disable video downloads entirely for a specific event type. 

  • Download only Red Severity clips for a specific event type. 

  • Download both Red and Amber Severity clips for a specific event type. 

 

This control helps you focus on the most important events while optimizing SIM and storage consumption. 

If you’d like assistance configuring this feature, our Support team will be happy to help.
