function keys include Previous , Pause/Play , Stop , Next and Delete .

6. Open the “100ATC5K” folder in the [DCIM] folder to start selecting your desired

XIII) Troubleshooting

There's no display

-Are the batteries properly installed?
-Do the batteries need replacing?

After the ATC5K is connected to my PC, it cannot find the new drive in the,
'My Computer' folder

-Ensure each end of the ATC5K USB cable is properly and firmly connected.
-Ensure your USB port is working properly. Try connecting another USB

device into the port. If the other device does not work, the USB port may
have a malfunction. In this case, contact your system manufacturer or
the manufacturer of your USB card.

I can't capture video footage
-Ensure there is enough space on the internal memory of ATC5K or the

SD card; the display will tell you how much time there is left for video
recording.

-Ensure the SD card is not locked. The LCD will display a message if the

SD card is locked.

The remaining time is not accurate
-The remaining time is an estimate.
-The remaining time depends not only on the time recorded, but on the

color density of the video footage. Under conditions with high contrast,
such as outdoors, the actual time available will be less than under
low-contrast conditions.

I can't play the video footage on my television
-Ensure each end of the AV cable is properly and firmly connected to

ATC5K and to your television.

-Ensure the ATC5K and television are both turned on.
-Ensure you have selected PB to view files.

Some captured video footage cannot be found when SD card is inserted
-The video footage may be stored on the internal memory. Connect the

ATC5K to your PC without an SD card, and it will show the files

in the internal memory.

The sound is very low or there is no sound
- Ensure the audio is on by following the instructions in the Sound

Recording section.
