Read the Plate Before It Reaches Your Bullbar. The Heavy Rigid Essential Truck Dash Cam Pack Pairs the VIOFO A329T 2CH With a 512GB Card and a Remote
From a truck cab, the vehicle you need to identify is rarely the one beside you. It is the car that cut in well ahead and kept going, and on a wide-angle dash cam its plate is a few pixels wide. A front and rear kit also expects a rear window to mount to, which many rigid trucks do not have. The Heavy Rigid Essential pack keeps both cameras on the windscreen: a 4K front for the whole road and a 4x optical zoom telephoto for the road well ahead.

Trusted AU store: We're an authorised Australian reseller, shipping from Melbourne within 24 hours*. You get an 18-month warranty on the camera with no product registration required, a 12-month warranty on the accessories, local technical support, and our 30-Day No-Worries returns.
Who This Isn't For: Both cameras face forward, so nothing records behind the truck, beside it or inside the cab. If you want the cab recorded, the VIOFO A329TC adds an infrared cabin camera. There is no hardwire kit, so it records while you drive, not while parked. This pack is for heavy rigid and long-haul drivers who want the road ahead on record with a plug-in install.
DCG Highlights
What We Love
- A 2K telephoto camera with 4x optical zoom and a narrow 35° view, which captures distant plates that a wide lens leaves too small to read
- A 4K front camera that records at 60fps, which gives you twice as many frames to pause on a car crossing in front of you as 30fps does
- Both cameras sit on the windscreen and join with a 1m cable, so there is no cable to run to the back of the vehicle
- The included car charger plugs into a 12V or 24V socket, per VIOFO's manual, so it suits truck and car electrical systems alike
- A 512GB VIOFO Industrial microSD card, rated for up to 120,000 hours of continuous recording and for -25°C to 85°C
- The VIOFO BTR200 Bluetooth remote locks a clip from a button within reach, so your hands stay near the wheel
- Wi-Fi 6 for moving clips to your phone in the VIOFO app, plus GPS that stamps speed and location on the footage
Good to Know
- Powered from the socket, the camera records only while the socket is live. Parking modes need the VIOFO HK6 hardwire kit, sold separately, which supports Hybrid and Low Power parking modes and has cut-off settings for 12V and 24V vehicles.
- 4K 60fps works only with HDR switched off. For night runs, 4K 30fps with HDR on balances headlights better.
- On the VIOFO A329T 2CH, two channels means front and telephoto. A rear camera can be added later, and all three cameras then record at 30fps.
- The telephoto view is narrow by design. It supports the wide front camera and does not replace it.
Why Does a Truck Dash Cam Need a Telephoto Lens?
A truck dash cam needs a telephoto lens because a wide lens cannot hold number plate detail at distance. A standard dash cam lens is about 140° wide, so it can show both lanes and the roadside. The price of that width is detail: a car several lengths ahead covers only a handful of pixels, and its plate cannot be read however sharp the sensor is.
The VIOFO A329T answers that with a second forward camera. Its 35° lens and 4x optical zoom spend every pixel on a narrow slice of road straight ahead, so a vehicle further up fills far more of the frame. Because the zoom is optical, the extra detail is real and not stretched from a crop. The trade-off is coverage. The telephoto records at 2K and sees only that slice of road, so it relies on the 4K front camera for the full scene, and neither camera sees behind you.
Top Benefits
- Distant plates on record: The 4x optical zoom captures plates well ahead of your bullbar.
- Sharper stills of moving cars: 60fps on the 4K front doubles the frames you can pause on.
- Fits a truck cab: Both cameras mount on the windscreen, so no rear window or rear cable run is needed.
- 12V or 24V, same plug: The included car charger runs from either socket, so there is no converter to buy.
- Long shifts kept: VIOFO estimates a 512GB card holds about 17 hours of two-channel driving at the default bitrate.
- Clips saved in one press: The BTR200 remote locks footage before loop recording can replace it.
How Does the Heavy Rigid Essential Pack Install?
- Stick the front camera and GPS mount high on the windscreen, clear of your view of the road, then fit the telephoto camera beside it and connect it with the included 1m telephoto camera cable.
- Aim the telephoto so it points straight down your lane, level with the horizon. If it points off to one side, it records the roadside and not the vehicle ahead.
- Tuck the power cable along the trim with the included trim removal tool and plug the car charger into the 12V or 24V socket.
- Insert the 512GB card and format it in the camera, then pair the VIOFO app to set the time and GPS. Hold the lock button on the BTR200 remote for three seconds to pair it, and stick it where your hand rests.
No hardwiring is needed to record while you drive. Aiming the telephoto is the only fiddly part, so check a test clip in the app before you tidy the cables away.

FAQ
FAQ
- Q: Will this pack work in a 24V truck? A: Yes, from the socket. VIOFO's manual says the included car charger plugs into a 12V or 24V power socket, and it steps that down to the 5V the camera runs on. Do not wire the camera straight to truck power. If you want it hardwired, the VIOFO HK6 kit is sold separately and has cut-off settings for 12V and 24V vehicles.
- Q: Does 2CH mean front and rear cameras? A: No, and this is the most common mix-up. On the VIOFO A329T 2CH, both cameras face forward: a 4K wide front camera and a 2K telephoto camera. Nothing records behind the truck or inside the cab. A VIOFO rear camera can be added later, and all three cameras then record at 30fps.
- Q: Does the pack record while the truck is parked? A: Not as supplied. The car charger powers the camera only while the socket is live, and the pack has no hardwire kit. Parking modes need the VIOFO HK6 hardwire kit, sold separately. It supports Hybrid Parking Mode and Low Power Impact Detection, and cuts power at a set voltage to protect the starting batteries.
- Q: How much driving does the 512GB card hold? A: VIOFO estimates about 17 hours of two-channel driving at the default bitrate before the camera loops over the oldest clips. Locked clips are kept out of the loop. If you want weeks of footage, the A329T also records to an external SSD of up to 4TB, which is not included in this pack.
- Q: What does the BTR200 remote do? A: It locks the current clip with one press, so loop recording cannot write over it. It has three buttons, and VIOFO's manual lets you set the other two to jobs such as switching the microphone or Wi-Fi on and off or taking a photo. It runs on a CR2032 cell and works within about 5 metres.
- Q: Should I record at 4K 60fps or 4K 30fps with HDR? A: For daytime runs, 4K 60fps gives smoother footage and more frames to pause on a passing vehicle. HDR balances bright headlights against darker plates at night, but the A329T only allows it at 30fps. If most of your driving is after dark, use 4K 30fps with HDR on. The telephoto records at 2K 30fps either way.
- Q: Can I add a rear camera to a truck later? A: Yes, where you have somewhere to mount it. The A329T takes a VIOFO rear camera, including the waterproof RWC400. VIOFO lists rear camera cables of 1m, 6m, 8m and 10m as optional accessories, so measure the run before you order. Email gday@dashcamguys.com.au with your truck and we will help you work out the parts.
- Q: What warranty covers the pack? A: The VIOFO A329T camera carries an 18-month warranty with no product registration required. The 512GB card and the BTR200 remote each carry 12 months. Support is local: email gday@dashcamguys.com.au with your order number and a short clip or photo of the problem.
