7.1. OFF MODE
The
OFF
mode is the "safe" mode when any actions must be
taken, e.g., replacing the SD card or batteries, or transporting
the device. And of course, when you are storing or not using the
camera, you will switch it to
OFF.
Please note that in the
OFF
mode the camera consumes little power. It's a good idea to take
the batteries out of the battery compartment if the camera will
not be used for a long time.
7.2. ON MODE
Anytime after the batteries and SD card have been inserted, you
can switch the camera on. When the power switch is moved to
the middle position, the camera will enter into the
ON
(Surveillance) mode. If the Mode is set as “Motion Detection”,
the camera will countdown 30-second delay and then be ready
to capture images. If the Mode is set as “Time Lapse”, there
will be no 30-second counting down, and the camera will be
ready to enter Time Lapse.
Once in the
ON
mode, no manual controls are needed or
possible (the control keys have no effect). The camera will take
photos or videos automatically (according to its current
parameter settings).
You can either move the power switch directly from
OFF
to
ON
mode, or stop at the
SET
position first to change one or
more settings, then move the switch to
ON
after you have
finished doing so.
