also can be viewed on a PC by removing the SD card and plugging it into the
computer directly or through a card reader. Because videos are saved as .avi files and
photos as .jpg files, applications found on most PCs (Microsoft Windows Media Player
and Microsoft Office Picture Manager) can open the files. The 4GB SD memory card
included in the DCS1800HP case can store at least 4 hours of video, recorded at
15 Mbytes/minute, in addition to hundreds of photos.

In Menu mode
, you use familiar scrolling motions and responses to dialog boxes to
navigate a main menu with six submenus. When selected, submenu items execute
“housekeeping” functions such as deleting files, setting the date and time, enabling or
disabling date and time stamps, choosing any of 28 languages for display indications,
selecting a Video out format and adjusting the triggering time of the console’s Auto
Power Off (APO) function.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION!
Never insert any probe attached to the DCS1800 console into any structure or
space known or suspected to contain live electric wiring
• The DCS1800 system is intended for industrial applications only. Do not use a
compatible probe for human or any other biological inspections.
• Never insert an attached probe into any flammable gas or liquid (including fuels in
an oil, gasoline or diesel tank)
• Do not disassemble the console. Doing so creates a potentially fatal electrical
hazard (and voids the warranty as well).
