Note: Audio level in the recording is controlled by the level of audio on the controllers.
Also, if the audio level is turned on, the video will record the audio from robot to
controller by default. If the Push‐to‐Talk button is pressed, all audio in range of the
controller will be recorded.
Video Retrieving
1) Insert a USB flash drive into controller's USB port (USB 2.0 formatted in FAT32). Note:
16GB size recommended.
2) Follow prompts on screen. You will see two prompts, one after the other.
a. "Copy Video to USB?" – Prompts you to transfer the video files from the
controller's internal memory to the USB stick. Hit "yes" to transfer or "no"
to save transfer for later date.
b. "Delete local backup?" – Asks if you want to clear the controller's internal
memory. Hit "yes" to clear and "no" to keep video stored internally for
transfer at a later date. NOTE: It is recommended you delete local backup
after each time you transfer video to a USB stick.
3) Follow the onscreen prompts and wait for video transfer to complete. Remove the
USB flash drive when prompted.
4) Video files are now on the USB flash drive. Plug the USB flash drive into a computer
to view or download the video files.
5) Any recorded video less than 6 minutes long will have an individual file. If the video is
longer than 6 minutes, it will be divided into 6‐minute segments and stored as
multiple files. There may be a minimal (up to one second) loss as it changes from one
segment to the next. The video files will have a name format such as 'vid‐00010‐002',
where 00010 indicates this is the 10
section of the 10
