under any circumstances.
►Always use HIGH QUALITY USB cables. Cheap cables will lead to all sorts of problems. If
possible, keep the cable as short as possible.
Video-Out (composite or TV-out)
The optional Video-Out cable (see above) should always be connected or disconnected while the
camera is in standby or turned off. If the cable is connected or disconnected during recording then the
recording will be stopped and the camera will enter standby. The camera will never be recognized as a
removable drive when the video-out cable is connected.
► Do not confuse this with webcam mode. The signal is an old, low resolution, composite
(TV) video signal in either PAL or NTSC format.

Before you start

Before using the camera for the first time, ensure that the internal battery is fully charged. See below
under "Charging". A new, fully charged 520mAh battery will last about 80 minutes. A new, fully
charged 820mAh battery will last over 2 hours. The 820mAh battery is slightly larger and heavier than
the 520mAh battery. The batteries are interchangeable.
For recording or playback, refer to the picture above and insert a micro SD card upside-down
into the SD Card slot with the gold contacts pointing forward.
The Reset button
The reset button is located on the right side, above the card slot. It can be pressed by carefully inserting
a bent paper clip or similar instrument. The Reset button should only be pressed in case the
camera no longer reacts to button presses. Pressing the Reset button will force the processor
to restart. No parameter settings will be lost and the RTC (Real Time Clock) will not be
interrupted. Do not confuse the reset button with the rear LED.

The Power button

Press the power button to turn the camera on. The blue LED will turn on for about 1 second before the
firmware starts to load. After about 3 seconds the yellow LED will turn on indicating the camera is
ready for use (standby). If Power On Delay is set to ON, press the power button for about 4 seconds
until the yellow LED turns on.
• Power On Delay is useful to prevent the camera from being inadvertently turned on.
• If the camera has been configured with Auto Power On Record set to On, the camera will
automatically begin recording in Mode 1.
• To turn off the camera, first stop any recordings that may be running by pressing the shutter
button and then press the power button for at least half a second (some firmware versions
require you to press the button for 2 seconds). The camera will turn off.

The Mode button

The Mode button enables the camera to be sequentially switched between 4 different modes. Each
button press advances to the next mode indicated by the LED color.
• Video Mode 1 (yellow LED). The frame rate, resolution, AOV and rotation can be individually
configured.
