Auto power off
If a button has not been pressed for 10 minutes, the display screen will drop to 50% brightness level. If no button is pressed within one minute after that, the unit will power off to
extend battery life. Pressing any button quickly any time before the unit turns off will return the screen to full brightness level and reset the auto off countdown process, without
changing any other settings.
Note: Once you enter the setup interface, you cannot use Power Button (A) to turn the device off. Please press and hold the image brightness button for 3 seconds to return to
the review interface first. Then press and hold power buttons 3 seconds to turn the unit off.
Icon overlay ON/OFF
The user has the option to control how the icons are displayed on the LCD screen. Normally, when any button is first pressed, all icons are displayed for 5 seconds, but no change to
the unit’s setting is made (the “REC” and “IR” buttons are exceptions. Image capture begins immediately the first time “REC” button is pressed. And the infrared light turns on at the
first press of “IR” button).
If the same button is pressed again, the button performs its function, and the display icons remain visible for 10 seconds after the last press, before turning off automatically.
To display all icons constantly, press and hold the “IR” button for 3 seconds. Repeat to switch back to auto icon overlay (only visible for 10 seconds max following the use of a button).
