Mount Installation

Choose your preferred mount from the included options based on your riding needs. Secure it firmly to your motorcycle or bicycle handlebar, then attach the 730Pro to the mount.

U-Bolt Mount Installation

Alt image

To install the U-bolt mount, first prepare the camera, the magnetic swivel base, the U-bolt clamp, the screws, the screwdriver, and the anti-slip rubber pad. Attach the magnetic swivel base to the camera body and fasten it securely with the T30 screwdriver.

Next, position the U-bolt mount on the handlebar of your bicycle or motorcycle. After confirming the mounting position, tighten the clamp securely with the hex wrench and apply the rubber pad where needed.

Then connect the magnetic swivel base to the U-bolt mount using the long screw. Adjust the camera to your preferred angle, and tighten it firmly with the T30 screwdriver.

note

If the mount still feels loose after installation, place the included rubber shims inside the clamp to improve stability. Before riding, make sure all screws are fully tightened and the mount is securely fixed so the camera remains stable on the road.
Title

Extension Handlebar Mount (Quick Release)

Alt image

For the extension handlebar mount, prepare the extension mount, the GARMIN quick-release mount kit, and the camera unit. Start by removing the fastening screw, then choose a suitable position on the handlebar. Loosen the clamp, fit it onto the handlebar, and tighten it securely.

Attach the GARMIN quick-release plate (male mount) to the camera base, then tighten the screws fully. Keep the mount base parallel to the handlebar, insert the male mount into the base, and rotate it 90 degrees toward the front of the bike until it locks into place.

After that, adjust the camera to the best vertical angle and tighten the base nut securely.

Note

Make sure the mounting position does not interfere with safe riding or block your view. When adjusting the mount, avoid contact with other parts of the bike. To prevent loosening during use, check the mount and all connecting parts regularly and make sure everything remains secure.

Waterproof Charging Cable Connection

Before use, prepare the camera, the included waterproof charging cable, and the waterproof gasket.

Open the rear latch and remove the waterproof cover. Insert the waterproof gasket into the rear groove, making sure it is fully seated and aligned properly.

Attach the waterproof charging cover to the rear of the camera at a slight angle, fit the bottom into place first, then press and lock the top securely.

Connect the charging cable to a power source and check the indicator light. A green light means the device is charging normally.

After removing the waterproof charging cable, always reinstall the waterproof cover to maintain water resistance.

note

1. The waterproof gasket is pre-installed at the factory. Each time you open the rear cover, make sure the gasket is still properly seated and securely in place.
2. When charging through the Type-C port, the device is not fully sealed. Keep it away from water.
3. When using a power bank, make sure it has enough power to support normal device operation.

Charging & Fast Charge Compatibility

Type-A Direct Input: Fast charging is supported when the waterproof charging cable is connected directly to a USB Type-A power source.

Type-C to Type-A Adapter: Fast charging is not supported when using a USB Type-C to Type-A adapter. In this setup, charging will run at standard speed only.

MicroSD Card Requirements

The 730Pro does not include a microSD card. Before using the device, please insert a U3-rated microSD card (sold separately) to ensure stable recording performance. Using a card with insufficient speed may cause recording lag, dropped frames, or missing footage.

The device supports microSD cards up to 256GB. You can choose the card capacity based on your recording needs, but we recommend using a card with at least 32GB of storage.

For the best compatibility and reliability, we strongly recommend using the microSD card sold by AKEEYO, which helps reduce issues caused by speed, quality, or compatibility differences.

SD Card Installation

The microSD card slot is located on the bottom of the device. Open the protective cover fully before inserting the card.

Insert the microSD card in the correct direction, then gently push it in until you hear or feel a click. After installation, close the protective cover firmly and make sure it is fully sealed.

Power on the device and confirm that the system recognizes the microSD card correctly. For the best performance and stability, we recommend formatting the card in the device settings before first use.

SD Card Removal

Before removing the microSD card, always power off the device first to help prevent possible data corruption.

Open the card slot cover, then gently press the card inward until it pops out. Remove it carefully, and close the protective cover securely afterward.

note

1. Always power off the device before removing the microSD card.
2. Do not force the card into or out of the slot, as this may damage the card or the slot.
3. microSD cards are sensitive storage devices. Avoid frequent insertion and removal, especially in harsh environments, to help extend card lifespan.
4. Keep the card slot area clean and free from dust or debris to ensure normal operation.

Important Notes

Time-Lapse Recording: The camera records frames at set intervals instead of continuous full-motion video. This helps save storage space and supports longer recording duration.

 

Delayed Shutdown: When a delayed shutdown time is set, the camera will continue running for the selected time after external power is disconnected, then shut down automatically. If this function is disabled, the camera will turn off immediately when external power is disconnected.

Important Notes

1. Make sure the device has a stable power supply during the update. Do not power off the device during the update process, or the firmware may be damaged.
2. For OTA updates, insert a microSD card before starting the update, then format the card in the device after the update is complete.
