camera’s settings can all be adjusted from the personal computer using the
“Change Camera Settings” feature of “Silent Image – MapView.” All of the camera settings are
stored on the CompactFlash (CF) card and are transferred to the camera as soon as you insert the
CF card in the camera and turn the camera on.
Once the settings are transferred they are retained by the camera – even when the camera is off –
so that you don’t need to use “Change Camera Settings” again unless you want to change the
settings. The settings are also retained on the computer for future use, so that the next time you
select “Change Camera Settings” to adjust the settings, you see the settings you selected instead
of the factory defaults.
To change the camera settings, insert the CF card into the card reader of the computer and click
the
Change Camera Settings
toolbar button in the upper middle section of “MapView.”
(To start “MapView,” move the mouse cursor over the “Silent Image – MapView” icon on the
desktop
and double-click the left mouse button. Or, from the Microsoft Windows
Start
menu, select
Programs > RECONYX > Silent Image – MapView
.)
“Change Camera Settings” opens, displaying four tabs.
On any tab in “Change Camera Settings,” you can click:
•
OK
to save changes you’ve made to the settings.
•
Cancel
to close “Change Camera Settings” without saving changes.
•
Set Date & Time
to change the camera’s date and time settings.
•
Use Factor
to restore factory settings to all tabs.
The four tabs within “Change Camera Settings” allow you to set the camera to function exactly
the way you want it to. The tabs are:
