After the camera boots up into Live Preview, it will search for the GSM network if a
SIM card is inserted and the GSM module is NOT turned Off in "Send Mode". The
user will see "Searching network....." on the screen. Once the camera is connected
to the network, the ISP name will show on the bottom right corner of the screen. If
the connection fails, it will show "Login fail". Press the "Right" key to search for
network again.
Note: continuously Login fail generally means the network signal is poor or the SIM card
is not compatible (DO NOT use CDMA or 3G SIM card plan for this GSM camera)

While in Live Preview, press 'Down' arrow to switch to Playback mode, choose a
picture using the "Right" or "Left" arrows and press OK. The camera will send the
selected picture to the preset phone number(s) and email addresse(s). After
sending successfully, the LCD screen will show
‘Send over’. If reception is poor or
network is busy, it will show ‘Send Fail’.
Sending a picture takes 20s-60s depending on the network signal strength. GPRS
generally takes longer time than MMS.
