Swann DVR-410 Operating Guidelines, Before Using the RemoteCam, To charge the RemoteCam

Operating Guidelines

These are just a couple of points to keep in mind whilst using the RemoteCam:

•Do not point the RemoteCamtowards exceedingly bright light sources such as the sun, high-powered headlights or stadium lights. The bright light may damage the image sensor, either leaving a permanent ‘shadow’ on your videos where the light source has damaged the sensor, or rendering the sensor completely inoperable.

•Avoid adverse weather conditions. Excessive heat (direct or ambient) and moisture (such as rain or humidity) will cause the RemoteCam to behave erratically or not work at all.

•Do not dispose of in fire. When exposed to significant heat lithium-ion batteries can explode. That, and burning plastic isn’t particularly kind to the environment.

•The small lens on the RemoteCam can be difficult to clean. Rather than having to clean it, avoiding dusty or dirty environments is preferable. It also helps if you clean the lint out of your pockets, as this tends to get lodged in the lens cavity.

•If the lens does become dirty, clean with cleaning alcohol and/or a specialized lens cleaning cloth (these are available from all good camera stores).

•Follow proper disposal guidelines in your locality if you intend to dispose of the RemoteCam. Many localities have strict guidelines as to the disposal of electronic items, particularly those with built-in rechargeable batteries.

Before Using the RemoteCam

The RemoteCam has a built-in lithium ion battery (the same sort of battery as most mobile phones use, only smaller). We charge them up before we send them out – however, due to time in transit, you’ll need to top it up before using it.

To charge the RemoteCam:

1.Locate the mini-USB port on the side of the RemoteCam.

2.Using the supplied USB-A to Mini-USB-A cable, attach the RemoteCam to a spare USB port on your computer, or to a stand-alone USB charger.

3.Whilst charging the orange LED will flash.

4.The RemoteCam takes 3 ~ 4 hours to achieve a full charge. It is important to leave it for the full duration, particularly during the first charge. You can just leave it plugged into the USB power - it’ll stop charging once it’s full.
