Read this manual carefully before operating this system.
Avoid using the device in extreme humidity or temperatures as this may cause damage to the
device.
Do not drop or press on the system as this may cause damage to the device.

Remember to always back up the data on your SD card.

Safety and Notice

For your safety

1. Do not attempt to insert, use, or charge a battery not designed for this inspection system.

2. Use the power supply only on even surfaces, without any cover. Open air and circulation around
the product must be available. The maximum ambient temperature is 50℃.

3. Risk of explosion may occur if an incorrect battery type is inserted or used. Dispose of used
batteries according to their instructions.

3

4. Keep the inspection system and its accessories out of the reach of babies, toddlers, and children.
In particular, small parts such as memory cards and battery could be easily dismantled and
swallowed.

5. Use only the original accessories to avoid possible risks to health and property, and thus meet all
related legal regulations.

6. When using the LED lights, do not use to close to human or animal eyes (particularly for babies,
toddlers, and children) to avoid injury.

7. In very rare occasions, Li-ion Batteries such as the one provided with this inspection system
could explode if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys or beaded chains touch exposed
terminals. The material may complete an electrical circuit and become quite hot. Exercise care in
handling any batteries, particularly when placing it inside your pocket, purse, or other container with
metal objects. In such an event, this could result in property damage, injury or burns. Do not
dispose of batteries in fire as they may explode.

Warranty

1. Warranty is void if damage or system failure occurred due to outside factors such as collision, fire,
flood, dirt, sewage, earthquake, and other force majeure events as well as incorrect usage of
electricity or use of non-original accessories.

2. It is the sole responsibility of the user if problems (such as data loss and system failure) occurred
due to non-factory installed software, parts, and/or non-original accessories.

Taking care of your inspection system

1. Always keep the inspection system in the pouch provided or other suitable cases for increased
protection against splashes, dust, and collision.

2. The only way of replacing the battery and the memory card is to open the Battery / Memory
cover. Use care when opening this cover to avoid damage the inspection system.

3. Dispose of unwanted batteries and inspection systems as permitted by the laws in your country.

4. Water may cause a fire or electric shock. Therefore, store your battery in a dry place.

5. If your control component becomes wet, wipe it with a dry cloth as soon as possible.

6. Do not drop, knock, or shake the inspection system. Inappropriate behavior when using the
camera system may damage the internal electronic circuit board or deform the lens shape.

7. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the inspection
system.

8. To avoid unclear images, be sure to clean the inspection system lens before taking pictures or
recording videos. Use a lens brush or soft cloth to clean the lens.

9. To avoid the loss of video and photos on the memory card, you should make a backup copy to a
computer or optical disc as soon as possible. Memory cards should not be considered as a long
term storage device.

10. Before initial use of a memory card, it is recommended to use the inspection system to format
the card first.

11. Remember to slide the write-protect tab (if available) to the unlock position. Otherwise, all data
(if any) on the memory card is protected and the card cannot be edited or formatted.

Operating environment

1. The camera system operating temperature is between -10ºC ~ 50℃(14℉~ 122℉). It is normal
for the operating time to be shortened when the temperature is low.

2. The capacity of your inspection system battery will reduce each time it is charged/emptied.

3. Storage at too high or low temperatures will also result in a gradual capacity loss. As a result, the
operating time of your inspection system may be considerably reduced.

4. It is normal for the camera system to become warm during operation, because the inspection
system casing can conduct heat.

The font and text size are fixed and cannot be changed.
The basic operation of the text overlay unit is straight forward. A flashing underscore cursor
indicates the current screen position. This cursor can be moved the screen by the keyboard cursor
keys. The cursor will wrap around the screen left and right, top and bottom. If no key is pressed then
the cursor will disappear after approximately ten seconds. The video text overlay unit uses the
standard US keyboard mapping.
Standard US keyboard mapping used by the video text overlay unit. By default all US units are
supplied with this.
The alphanumeric characters in the QWERTY section of the keyboard and the keys of the numeric
keypad can be typed directly to the screen as would normally be expected. Each alphabetic
character key is normally lowercase. Uppercase characters can be typed by holding down the shift
key or pressing the CAPS LOCK key. The keyboard’s LED indicators will be lit by the unit. To exit
CAPS LOCK mode press the key again.
To remove a character from the screen use the backspace key and delete key. This will replace the
character immediately to the left of the current cursor position with a blank space and move the
cursor to that position. The Delete key has no function. The Home and End keys move the cursor
position to the left and right of the current line on the screen. The Return key moves the cursor to
the beginning of the next line.
The video text overlay unit operates in two modes. In the first mode the text is overlaid over the
video input signal. When the video signal is removed the unit automatically switches to generating
its own internal dark grey background video signal and will switch back to the external video when
this is reconnected. In the second mode the unit generates its own video signal internally, but
ignores the external video signal. All keyboard commands operate in the same way in both modes.
To switch between modes use the F3 key as shown in the command table below. Each page can
have this mode set independently.
