If you need to rest the password for your 250-8950 DVR system from Rostra, the instructions below can help. Note that it will be helpful to use a spare microSD card for the process.

4. Reconnect the vehicle's battery if previously disconnected and power on the vehicle's ignition to power on the 250-8950 DVR. The firmware file will load automatically and the DVR system will announce when the update is complete.
5. Power OFF the vehicle's ignition.
6. Remove the microSD card and re-insert the original microSD card.
7. Power on the vehicle's ignition to power on the 250-8950 DVR.
