(M), super-wide (L), or telephoto (N). 4k can only film in wide. PT or Pro Tune allows you to set everything manually with the GoPro, including the white balance, colour, shutter speed, ISO, sharpness, and exposure compensation. If turned off everything will be in automatic.
Each of these have different settings available. The main settings to consider are as follows: In the standard burst mode, you can choose the rate at which the GoPro takes photos, and how many it takes during that time. For example, 30/1 second will take 30 photos a second for 1 second, 30/6 will take 30 photos a second for 6 seconds.
These work separately to the other modes but also function alongside them. Enabling the Wi-Fi option allows the GoPro to link to the GoPro app, that will be mentioned more later in this guide, or a Wi-Fi remote control for the GoPro.

GoPro. Any issue please contact the technical team. If you have previously paired with the GoPro, reconnecting to the app can be done in the main selection screen by clicking on the relevant GoPro model and number. To check which GoPro you have, there should be a number on the back.
Once connected the GoPro the app will show what the GoPro is filming. This works even when the GoPro is in its casing. The app has a range of about 10-15 meters, but this can vary if in an area where signal interference is possible, underwater is a good example of this.
Its standard range is up to 600ft range, as long as nothing interferes with the signal. It can be used to turn the GoPro(s) on and set them to record. Note however, you cannot use the app and remote at the same time.
To open up the casing pull the black clip on the top of the case upwards from the lens side. Once opened the back housing should be able to fall allowing the GoPro to be placed inside the casing. Make sure the GoPro is in neatly.
To change the mounting the GoPro is using you can unscrew the screw handle on the side. You can then remove the bottom stand and the accessory used can replace it.
