4. Inserting the SD card
WARNING: Make sure the camera power switch is in the OFF position before inserting
or removing the SD card.
The camera uses a standard SD (Secure Digital) memory card to save photos (in .jpg format)
and/or videos (in .avi format). SD and SDHC (High Capacity) cards up to a maximum 32GB
capacity are supported.
Before inserting the SD card into the card slot after opening the camera's front cover, please make
sure that the write-protect switch on the side of the card is not in the LOCK position.
Insert the SD card into the card slot with its label side upwards and the contacts facing down (see
icon on the right side of the slot). A "click" sound indicates that the card is installed successfully.
Formatting the SD card by using the camera "Format" parameter before using it for the first time
is recommended, especially when the card has been used in other devices (see procedure § 5.4
TEST (setup) menu – parameters and settings list).
To take out the SD card, just gently push in the card (do not try to pull it out without pushing in
first). The card is released from the slot and ready to be removed when you hear the "click" sound.
WARNING
 You must insert the SD card before putting the power on. If no SD card is inserted,
the camera will shut down automatically.
 Inserting the SD card upside down or backwards could damage the camera or the card.
Damage resulting from inserting the SD card incorrectly is not covered by the warranty.
5. Using the camera
The camera has three operational modes:
1. OFF mode: power switch is in the OFF position
2. ON mode: power switch is in ON position (LCD screen is off)
3. TEST (setup) mode: power switch is in TEST position (LCD screen is on)
5.1. OFF mode
The OFF mode is the "safe mode" when any actions must be taken, e.g., replacing the SD card
or batteries, or transporting the camera.
You will also use the OFF mode if you connect the camera to a computer's USB port later to
download your photos/videos.
Slide power switch to the OFF position to turn off the camera. Please note that even in OFF mode,
the camera still consumes power at a very low level. Therefore, please remove the batteries if the
camera will not be used for a long time.
5.2. ON mode
Anytime after the batteries and SD card have been inserted, you can switch on the camera.
When the power switch is moved to the ON position, the camera will enter into the ON mode. The
motion indication LED will blink for a few seconds. This interval allows time for you to close the
camera front cover, lock it, and leave the monitored area.
Once in the ON mode, the camera will take photos or videos according to its current parameter
settings.
