ON
position (The camera is

press
START
button to enter the surveillance mode. When
the screen is off, the camera enters standby and will perform
according to your settings.
App & Wi-Fi Connection
:
You can use the app to connect the camera when the camera is
operating in the ON or SURVEILLANCE mode.
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 still consumes a 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
In the
ON
mode you can check and change the settings of the
camera with the help of its built-in screen. These settings,
found in the menu by pressing
MENU
key, let you change the
photo or video resolution, interval between photos, switch the
time imprint on, etc.
