shown at the bottom of the screen and its position in the storage queue is shown at upper right.

ACCESSING SD CARD CONTENT
Photos and videos stored on the SD card also can be viewed on a PC. If your computer has an SD
card slot, you can remove the card from the H16 and plug it directly into a PC. If your PC does not
have an SD card slot, you can purchase a USB SD card reader (Part No. SDRD1) from General.
If you choose to remove the SD card from the console and plug it into a PC, either directly or
through a card reader, remember to eject the card from the PC once you are done viewing (and/or
copying) the files it contains. Depending on your PC’s startup settings, your computer may fail to
restart following its next shutdown if the SD card remains inserted. The PC’s operating system may
try to reboot from the SD card and be unable to do so.
Another option for viewing inspection video and photos on a PC is to use the supplied USB cable
to link to the computer. The first time you connect the H16 to a computer in this way, the H16
screen will go dark (except for the white text
MASS-STORAGE MODE
) and you will be prompted
that “Driver Software is Being Installed.” The final Driver Software Installation dialog box advises
that “Your device is ready to use.” Your PC’s AutoPlay function will then produce a screen pop to
notify you that a removable disk has been connected. Double-clicking “Open folder to view files”
reveals the contents of that disk to be a folder named “DCIM”. Double-clicking the DCIM folder
icon reveals a subfolder named “100MEDIA” that contains all the videos and pictures you have
saved on the SD card.
While the USB cable is attached, however, you cannot view real-time videos on the H16’s LCD, a
TV monitor, or your computer. You cannot even record videos or take photos and store them on
the SD card. Disconnecting the cable returns the H16 to Preview mode. The only benefit of using
the USB cable is that you do not have to remove the SD card to view its content on a PC.
NAVIGATING THE MAIN MENU
The main menu of the H16 provides access to the following housekeeping and operational
functions:
• Bulk and individual file erasure • Video exporting
• Setting the date and time • Choosing a display language
• Selecting a TV format
• Enabling/disabling and adjusting the Auto Power Off function
