Operation for BTW8 and BTW10

supplier.
2. Mount the provided tablet onto the spring loaded clamp situated on top of the camera part taking
care not to drop the tablet. Ensure that the tablet is securely held on its diagonal corners so that
there is no movement of the tablet within the clamp

4. Connect the provided USB cable between the camera and the tablet
5. Switch on the tablet and launch the MoticConnect application from the tablet’s main screen
