XV) Troubleshooting

There’s no display

Is the rechargeable battery properly installed?

Does the rechargeable battery need replacing?

After the ATC9K is connected to my PC, it cannot find the new drive in the ‘My Computer’ folder

Ensure each end of the ATC9K USB cable is properly and firmly connected.

Ensure your USB port is working properly. Try connecting another USB device into the port. If the other device does not work, the USB port may have a malfunction. In this case, contact your system manufacturer or the manufacturer of your USB card.

I can’t capture video footage

Ensure there is enough space in the microSD card; the display will tell you how much time left is available for video recording.

The remaining time is not accurate

The remaining time is an estimate.

The remaining time depends not only on the time recorded, but on the color density of the video footage. Under conditions with high contrast, such as outdoors, the actual time available will be less than under low-contrast conditions, such as indoors.

I can’t play the video footage on my television

Ensure each end of the HDMI cable is properly and firmly connected to

ATC9K and to your television.

Ensure the ATC9K and television are both turned on.

The sound is very low or there is no sound

Ensure to increase the volume of the speaker in the volume setting.

The ATC9K is specifically designed for extreme sports and is waterproof, it is for this reason that we have made the microphone less sensitive.

The LED keeps flashing while the rechargeable battery is charging
