Troubleshooting Guide

Problem: The PenCam takes a long time to boot or save recordings

Solution: Delete video you do not need from the PenCam. As the memory fills up the PenCam may take longer to process and save.

Problem: Some of my videos won’t play on my computer.

Solution: Videos can become corrupt and will not play if the PenCam is not used as described in this manual. Pushing the button several times or holding the button can result in corrupt videos. Wait until the PenCam has finished processing before pressing the button again.

Problem: Is it legal to record people in my country?

Solution: It is your responsibility to research the local laws and conditions of use for recordings.

Problem: I can’t see any video on my computer.

Solution: Install the codec pack klcodec417s.exe stored on the PenCam or from our website www.swannsecurity.com
