background image

after starting the camera in SETUP mode). After entering the SIM pin code once, the 
camera will not ask for the SIM pin code next time. If this function is greyed out in your 
camera menu, this means that there is no SIM pin code on your SIM card. 

GPS: 

Here you can turn  the GPS function 

ON 

or 

OFF

.  The camera can determine its 

location quite accurately based on the network signal from multiple cell towers in the area, 
and this GPS location can then be stored in the metadata of the captured images. However, 
it is not possible to use this feature to find out where your camera is if it is stolen, for 
example, because the GPS location determination and transmission only takes place when 
the camera is switched on and an email is sent to your account. There is no chance that 
someone who stole the camera would leave it on with your email address in it as the 
recipient of the images. In addition, turning this feature on uses more batteries than 
turning it off. 

 

Tab: OTHER 

Language: 

Here you can set the language of 

the camera menu. 

 

Date/time: 

Here you can set the date and 

time manually or automatically. If you choose 

Automatic

, the camera will automatically 

synchronise the date and time with the data 
sent by the mobile network every time it is 
switched on. You still need to indicate in which 
time zone you are (for the Netherlands this is 
"

+ 01:00

"). If you choose 

manual

, you can 

configure the date and time manually here. 
Please note that in this case, the camera does 
not adjust itself according to summer and winter time.

 

Date format: 

Here you can select how you want the date to be displayed, you can choose 

from YYYY/MM/DD (CN), MM/DD/YYYYY (US), EN DD/MM/YYYY (EU). The EU format is our 
standard.

 

Stamp: 

Here you can turn the information bar that normally appears at the bottom of each 

photo 

ON 

or 

OFF

. When it is 

ON

, the following things will be shown on the photos/videos: 

camera ID, moon phase, temperature, date and time.

 

Battery type: 

Here you can specify the type of batteries you use. You can choose from 

ALKALINE/LITHIUM 

or 

NIMH rechargeable

. Because NiMH rechargeable batteries 

(e.g. our Panasonic Eneloop and Eneloop Pro batteries) have a lower voltage than non-
rechargeable alkaline and lithium batteries, this setting ensures that the camera displays 
the battery percentage as accurately as possible. By choosing this setting correctly, the 
camera will therefore work optimally.

 

Frequency: 

Here you can set the frequency of the monitor in the camera, you can choose 

between 50Hz and 60H z. The default is 50Hz.
