To Capture a Photograph:
When you use the RemoteCam to take a photograph, you’ll be capturing a single
image at the highest quality that the RemoteCam can deliver (1280 x 1024 pixels, the
resolution of a mid-level LCD computer monitor). Taking a photo takes approximately
two to three seconds as the RemoteCam processes the data.
Each photo is approximately 350KB in size (about 0.35MB). This means that, if you
have a 1GB microSD card in the RemoteCam, it would take slightly more than 2000
photographs to fill (less if there is also video or other data on the card).
Turn the • RemoteCam on.
Wait several seconds for the • RemoteCam to properly initialize.
Press the record button once. •
The • RemoteCam will take a single photograph.
While the image is being recorded, the light will go out for a moment, then •
come back on.
When the light comes back on, the process has been completed, and your
•
photograph has been saved.
To Capture Video:
Once the RemoteCam start shooting video, it will continue to do so until you
press stop, the microSD card fills up or the battery runs out - whichever comes
first. Whilst recording video, the LED will no longer be lit - this is intended to
complement the stealth of the design.
Each minute of video captured requires up to 100MB of space. This means that a
1GB microSD card can store slightly more than 10 minutes of video.
Turn the • RemoteCam on.
Wait several seconds for the • RemoteCam to properly initialize.
When the yellow light comes on, the • RemoteCam is ready to record.
To start recording video, press and hold the Record/Stop button until the LED •
flashes quickly, then goes out.
Whilst video is being recorded, the yellow light will go out.
•
To stop the recording, press the Record/Stop button. The yellow light will come •
back on when the saving process is complete.
