OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CHARGE
Turn on the video camera and check battery status; if low, charge it. Either a computer USB port of power adapter (not included) can be used to charge it.
When EVO 4K is charged in off status, the red status led will flash slowly. When finished charging, the red led will remain on. The charge process inhibits video camera operations.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
Before inserting the battery, make sure the lock/release button is open; fully insert the battery in the compartment and close using the lock/release button.
TFT DISPLAY INSTALLATION
EVO 4K comes with a 2" removable TF
T touch screen
for camera installation and to view saved photos and videos. Install the display as illustrated.
11
INSERTING AND REMOVING THE MEMORY CARD
The EVO 4K video camera supports TF memory cards with capacity up to 64 GB. Any type of Micro SD card can be used but we recommend high speed cards to optimise performance.
• Installation.
1. Make sure the video camera is off. 2 Insert the card in its slot, being careful that it is inserted in the correct direction until a click is heard.
• Removal. 1 Turn off the video camera. 2 Press the centre of the back of the card and release it; then remove it.
12
FRONT SELECTORS AND SETTINGS MENU
Some selectors are located on the front of the video camera.
EXPOSURE MODE SELECTOR
According to need and lighting conditions, the video camera exposure meter can be set to SPOT mode. This mode is used to adjust the amount of light according to a well-defined central point. Two different exposure meter management modes are included: Central Area: set this parameter in order to improve the central dark area, if the central area is
dark but the surrounding area is bright.
Spot: on the contrary, if the central area is bright and the surrounding area is dark, use this
setting in order to improve the image in the outer darker area.
G-SENSOR SELECTOR
Turn on the G-SENSOR for the video camera to automatically detect any change in gravity. This function is especially helpful for installations on vehicles or when installed on a helmet and thus hard for the user to reach. Any video camera movement will automatically turn it on. Recording stops when no movement is detected for 3 minutes.
