4. Advanced Operations
From the basic operations of the camera in previous chapters, the camera has three
basic operation modes:
1. OFF mode: Power switch is set to the OFF position (Right).
2. ON mode: Power switch is set to the ON position (Left).
3. TEST mode: Power switch is set to the TEST position (Middle).
In the above three modes, the OFF mode is the specified safe mode when replacing
the SD-card or batteries and transporting the camera.
This chapter explains the advanced operations for customizing the camera’s settings.
The settings can only be customized in TEST mode and the remote control is needed to do
this.
4.1 Settings Menu
To view the camera’s settings menu, press MENU while in TEST mode (called the
settings menu in this chapter).The settings menu will be shown on the camera’s LCD or
the external TV monitor.
Navigating the menus and settings: The MENU key will enter into the settings menu,
and it will also exit the settings menu as well as go back to the previous menu. For example,
if you are selecting an option in the Resolution feature of the camera settings, pressing
MENU will exit the to the camera settings menu without saving the setting. Pressing
MENU again will exit to the main screen (info display). If you are at the same feature menu
and you press LEFT it will also exit to the camera settings without saving the setting.
Pressing LEFT again will put the focus back on the top level menus: Photo Settings, Video
Settings, and System Settings. You can now press LEFT or RIGHT to navigate between these
3 menus.
