Spy Tec Mobius Instruction Manual

Instruction Manual for the Mobius ActionCam
Description
The above picture shows the arrangement of the user operating features.
The two heat sinks can become very hot during operation. This is normal, but all the same
you should never leave the camera turned on where the surrounding temperature exceeds
~47°C (118°F) - for example in a car parked in the baking sun. If you wish to use the
camera in very hot conditions you should ensure the heat sinks are adequately cooled, for
example by directing cool air onto the metal plates or using a ventilator to dissipate the heat
away from the metal plates. High temperatures will also damage the internal LiPo battery. If
you use your camera in very hot conditions with external power, for example as a dashcam,
you should consider replacing the battery with a Super Capacitor pair. These can be
purchased from most suppliers who sell the Mobius. A Super Capacitor pair enables the
camera to correctly save the last recording when external power is removed. A fully
charged Supercap has enough energy to keep the RTC (Real Time Clock) running for
several days (about 7-10) without external power connected. It only takes a few minutes to
fully charge the Supercap.
►This manual does not cover replacing the internal battery or lens. If you need to do this,
please refer to the very detailed instructions found at

►This manual assumes the camera is loaded with the latest firmware available at the time
of writing. Functionality may vary with earlier or later firmware versions.
Cards
In general you may use any micro SD, micro SDHC or Micro SDXC card with a capacity of
up to 128GB with this camera. Larger cards are most likely also supported but not yet
available. To avoid card compatibility problems, always use quality cards with a speed
rating of Class 4. There are known problems with a few cards that have a higher class
rating, for example some, but not all, Sandisk 32GB Ultra (class 10) will not work properly
with earlier firmware versions. You should use firmware v1.17 or above with these cards.
For the best compatibility use cards with a class 4 rating if you have them. There is
absolutely no advantage in using cards with a higher rating. The most compatible cards are
genuine Kingston. At the time of writing there are known problems with some 64GB cards
