    My wife accidentally set off the alarm and was recorded by the car's onboard memory. Does anyone know how I can delete it? I have no issue at deleting Sentry or Dashcam footages.

    I thought if you do have a version that in fact saves it to the car's memory, inserting a USB memory stick would cause it to download.

    Why do you think you have video from the Sentry event in the car's memory, and even if so, what's the problem?

    the footage is in the "Onboard" section - not "Sentry" or "Dashboard". IMG_0727.jpeg


    Once you launch the footage, there's only a "Download" icon but no delete icon. I've tried to download, but the footage remains in the "Onboard" section and cannot be deleted.

    My bet is the next Sentry event will overwrite that clip.

    You can download the alarm footage, but it still remains with the onboard memory.
