3. Turn the camera to the ON position.
4. The camera will automatically switch to external power when it is
connected, even if the internal batteries are installed.
NOTE: Please make sure the voltage and polarity (+/‐) are correct before
connection. Incorrect voltage or polarity (+/‐) will damage the camera.
When both internal and external batteries are connected, the camera will
draw power from the higher voltage source first.
Memory Options
The camera is also equipped with an expandable media card slot capable of
accepting up to 16GB* SD card with Class 6 or below speed rating (sold
separately). With no memory card inserted into the slot, the camera will use
the built in SDRAM memory to store images. If an SD card is inserted into the
slot, then the camera will bypass the built in memory and utilize the SD
memory. The front counter display will show the number of images in the
built in memory, unless the expansion card is inserted at which point the front
counter will only display the number of images stored in the expansion card.
WARNING: The above camera will not accept Class 10 or above speed
rating SD memory cards.

Inserting SD memory card
NOTE: Make sure camera is in the OFF position whenever adding or
removing memory.
• Insert SD memory card in to the SD card slot completely and in the
correct direction, as shown by the picture shown on the Open View
image above (see page 5).
• To remove the SD memory card, depress the SD card and pull out the
card gently.
• SD cards must be clean (no images from other sources). If you are using
the SD card from other cameras, please make sure to format the SD card
in your computer prior to use in the camera. New cards are good to use
straight from the package.
• If installed SD card is locked, camera will show LOC on the display, please
slide the lock switch to unlock location then reinstall the SD card.
FORMAT – Definition: When you format a SD memory card, the operating
system erases all information and files on the card. Then it creates an internal
address tables that it later uses to locate information and files. Formatting
also removes all Hidden System files as well. Basically it cleans your SD
memory card just like if it was brand new. Please make sure to follow the
guidelines listed below:
SD Card size: 2GB or below, format using File System type “FAT”.
SD Card size: 4GB or above, format using File System type “FAT32”.
*DO NOT use File System type “NTFS” or “exFAT”, these formats are not
supported.
