Initial Setup

Inserting a New Memory Card

Before you are able to record any video using the device, you will have to install a
memory card to save the video on. The SC114 takes Micro SD cards with storage
space up to 32GB (not included).

Assuming that the camera lens is facing you, the memory card slot is located on the left
side of the unit. Insert any memory cards with the straight side up and the jagged side
down. Push it in until you hear a quiet click sound, indicating the memory card is locked
in. To remove the card in the future, press down on it until you hear another click and it
should spring out of the slot.

Formatting a New Memory Card

After the memory card is inserted into the device, you will still have to format the
memory card. You can format the memory card from the settings menu.

To get to the settings menu, press the Mode button. It should take you to a VIDEO
screen. Keep pressing it until you get to a screen with a red wrench and screwdriver at

the top. Press the ► key until you have FORMAT highlighted. Press OK so select it and
press the ► to select YES. Press OK and the memory card will be formatted once the

spinning circles disappear.

WARNING: Formatting the memory card will erase any information already on it, so

make sure there is no information that you need on it, or that you have a backup of the
data.

Setting the Time

When you first turn on the unit, the time may be incorrect. The current time on the
device can be seen on the bottom left of the main screen. If it is incorrect, you can go to
the settings menu to change it.

To get to the settings menu, press the Mode button. It should take you to a VIDEO
screen. Keep pressing it until you get to a screen with a red wrench and screwdriver at

the top. Press the ► key until you have DATE highlighted. OK so select it and press ►
and ◄ to adjust the year. Press OK to save the year and it should move on to the

month, and after that is saved it will move onto the day.

Once the date is set, you can move to the clock and use OK to select the hours, and
after you save that, you can set the minutes. The time is in 24 hour format (if you need
to enter a time that is PM, then add 12 to the hours and enter that number instead).
Once the clock is set correctly and saved, you can press MODE to go back to the main
screen.

Connecting to Your Computer

To view the videos and photographs you have taken on the device on a larger screen,
view the GPS data, make backups of the footage, charge the device, or empty space on
the memory card, you will have to connect the device to your computer using the
included cable.

The port used to connect to your computer is on the top of the device, on the left side,
and is labeled as USB above it. Turn the device off and take the included USB cable
and plug the larger end into your computer and the smaller end into your device. If you
have the suction cup attached, you will have to remove it first.

A menu will appear with the options of OPEN, CHARGE, and MSC. You can select the
option you want using the ► and ◄ buttons and use OK to confirm the selection. OPEN
will turn on the device as normal. CHARGE will keep the device off but recharge it. MSC
will put the device in USB mode and allow you to view the files on the memory card on
your computer.

The first time you are connecting the device to your computer, you will see a message
appear on your screen informing you that your computer is installing drivers needed for
the device to work properly. Please wait for a message telling you that they are
successfully installed before doing anything else.

While the device is connected to your computer you should see USB Connected on the
screen of the device. An autoplay message should popup on your computer screen, and
you can click Open folder to view files. You should see the following: DCIM, MISC,
codec, Player, user_manual.

You should copy all files and folders on the memory card somewhere into a folder
somewhere on your computer. This makes a backup of the files and will make loading
times much lower. If you want to free up some space on the memory card you can also
delete them from the memory card after you have copied them to your computer.

Installing Dependencies

To play the files, you must first have Google Earth installed on your computer, as well
as the included codecs. If you already have these installed, you may skip this section.
Google Earth is free to download and install, and you can find it at the following URL:

http://www.google.com/earth/index.html

When you go to the website, there should be a button saying Download Google Earth

The website may try and include Google Chrome with Google Earth, but this can be
disabled by simply unchecking the check boxes near the top of the page. To start the
download, click on Agree and Download.

If the download does not start, there is a link on the page you can click to force it to
start. If prompted to Save or Run the program, you can simply Run it. If you Save it
instead, you will have to find where the file was saved and double click it.
