POWER
Hold for three seconds to turn the device on or off.
MODE
Switch between Photo, Video and Playback.
SHOT
Take a photo or start/stop video. In playback, press to play or pause.
Prepare batteries and storage.
Install the correct batteries
Install six AA batteries. Observe the polarity markings and turn power off before changing batteries. Use matching batteries; do not mix old and new batteries or different types.
Prepare the memory card
Insert a microSD card up to 32GB with the device off. Back up files before formatting. In Photo or Video mode, open MENU → Format and confirm only after saving needed recordings.
Focus on your subject
Rotate the manual-focus lens until the subject is clear. Hold IR UP / IR DOWN for digital zoom; use MODE to select capture type and SHOT to record. Recording stops when the card is full.
Adjust illumination to the scene.
Enable infrared
In Photo or Video mode, briefly press IR UP to activate infrared lighting. The view changes to black and white. Short presses of IR UP / DOWN adjust the seven brightness levels.
Low battery limits IR
The guide reduces available IR levels as battery power falls. Below about 25% remaining power, IR may not activate. Replace batteries before assuming the night-vision light has failed.
Recorded sound
This model’s guide states video files have no sound. Silent playback is expected and is not a microphone setting problem.
Review and copy what you captured.
Playback on the device
Press MODE for Playback, browse with UP / DOWN and press SHOT to play or pause. MENU stops playback and opens file lock/delete options.
Transfer to a computer
Connect using the supplied Mini-USB data cable; the screen shows MSDC and the computer exposes a removable drive. Copy recordings from DCIM. You can also use a card reader with the device powered off.
Protect important files
Copy files before deleting or formatting. Format erases all files, including protected recordings. Locking a file does not protect it from formatting.
Check the basics before resetting.
Blurry view
Refocus the lens for the subject distance and clean the lens gently. Adjust IR brightness at night and try less digital zoom.
Turns off while idle
Check batteries and MENU → Power Save. The guide offers 3, 5 or 10 minutes, or OFF.
No recording or computer access
Check the card is inserted and not full. Preserve files, test a supported card and use a data-capable cable. Send Support the model and firmware version if the issue continues.
