Introduction: We know you are keen to make videos of your layout but please take some time to get used to the operation of the
Cam Truck before attempting long recordings. Connect the truck with the supplied USB cable to your computer. The green light
on the roof of the truck will come on. The battery is now being charged but the PC will not recognise the truck yet!
When handling the truck try not to put your fingers on the exposed wide angle lens. A finger mark may blur the image.
Take time to identify the two control button apertures (on/off) and (video start/stop) from the picture 2 pages down.
Next, using the actuator, insert it into the (on/off) aperture on the truck roof. This is the one furthest from the lens on the front of
the truck. Gently press down on the actuator until the orange light comes on, then release. The computer should now recognise the
truck as a standard USB memory stick. On a Windows PC a window should appear giving the choice of 'open folder to view
files' on the truck. If this window does not appear then navigate through 'My Computer' to the Truck memory. This will be
identified as 'Branor Systems HDW Camtruck'. Once the truck memory is opened you should see the following files:
These files are important and they should be saved onto your PC. Now is a good time to create a folder to save your videos to.
E.G. 'Camtruck Videos'. Copy all the above files (except DCIM) to you chosen directory.
These files will allow you to create a duplicate memory card for the Camtruck and also change video options.
The file named 'Nr16Setup.exe' is used for this purpose. More about this later.
Video files are stored in the directory DCIM. Double Click on this to show the next directory 100HDDVR. Finally, double click
on this directory to view the stored video files. There will be some short test videos here and here would be a good opportunity to
test your computers ability to view them. Double click on the video files to view them. The video files have the extension MOV
which is an Apple Quick Time format. If you have a Microsoft Windows PC then Media Player should be able to view them. If
not, you can download a Quick Time viewer from:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
If you have an Apple Mac PC then Quick Time will be the native video format.
Once you have successfully viewed the test videos you can disconnect the Cam Truck using the safe USB disconnect procedure.
Remove the USB cable and the orange light will flash to red then turn off. It is advisable to now give the Camtruck a full charge
by reconnecting the USB cable. The yellow light will come on and the internal battery will start charging. The truck was fully
charged during manufacture but all rechargeable batteries self discharge over time and may require topping up. The yellow light
will turn off when the battery is fully charged, This can take up to 3 hours for a fully discharged battery.
