4 Advanced Operations
From the basic operations of the camera in previous chapter, we know that the
camera has three basic operation modes:
1. OFF mode: Power switch is at OFF position.
2. ON mode: Power switch is at ON position.
3. TEST mode: Power switch is at TEST position.
In the above three modes, the OFF mode is the
specified safe mode when replacing the SD-card or batteries
and transporting the camera.
This chapter explains the advanced operations for customizing the camera
settings. The settings can only be customized in TEST mode and remote control is
needed.
