Time Setup
Whilst in
Time Setup
, the Time symbol will flash rapidly.
The time is displayed in 24-hour format. Thus, half-past nine in the morning will
•
be written as 0930, whereas half-past nine in the evening will be represented
as 2130.
Simply use the UP and DOWN buttons to select an hour, and then press OK.
•
Then, use the UP and DOWN buttons to select the current minute.
•
Still Image/Movie Recording Selection
You can select to capture still images (
JPEG
) or movie (
AVI
) files here.
When both the Still Image and Movie Recording symbols are flashing, press
•
OK to access the selection screen.
Use UP and DOWN to select between Still Image and Movie recording - the
•
icon will flash to let you know which one you have selected. Press OK to select
a mode.
If you select Still Image recording, then you’ll need to select between 1P (taking
•
one photo per motion event detected) and 3P (taking three images per motion
event).
For still image recording, you’ll then need to choose between “HI” (high
•
quality, 1600 x 1200) and “LO” (low quality, 1024 x 768).
All video recordings are 15 seconds in duration, at a resolution of 640 x 480.
•
Record Delay Setup
When in the Record Delay setup screen, the Record Delay symbol will be shown
flashing rapidly.
The Record Delay is a measurement of how much time must pass between
•
motion events detected by the PIR sensor before the
OutbackCam
will take
another picture or record another video.
This can be set to between 5 seconds and 60 minutes and 59 seconds.
•
We suggest using lower Record Delay settings when you need to capture
everything that happens - this is ideal for locations which are relative inactive,
or if you plan to periodically copy images/videos off the SD card.
Longer Record Delay settings help when trying to minimise false triggers or
•
maximise use of your battery and/or storage space. This is great for situations
where you want to capture a “slice” of the action without capturing literally
everything that moves.
Current Recording Count
Whilst the SD Card icon is flashing, you’re looking at the Current Recording count.
This will simply display the number of recordings (still image or video recordings)
currently stored on the SD card installed in the
OutbackCam
.
Formatting the SD Card
If the
OutbackCam
detects an SD card which is either not formatted or formatted
for an incompatible file system, it will give you the option to format the card.
The
•
OutbackCam
will display the message FoNo. No will be flashing.
To format the card, press UP so that Fo is flashing and press OK.
•
You will see two options, Y and N. Press UP to select Y and press OK to confirm.
•
IMPORTANT:
Formatting will
remove all data on the SD card
- this cannot be undone.
