Argus Camera DC1500N manual

Page 25

The camera is set to your country’s AC mains frequency (e.g. 60Hz for US). If you take photos under an electric light source in another country with a different frequency (e.g. 50Hz), you will get horizontal, black stripes in those photos, due to incorrect mains frequency. There will be no problems when taking photos under sunlight.

10.Can I use the camera when it is raining?

No, DO NOT use the camera under rain since the camera is not water- resistant. Water drops may get inside the camera and damage the parts.

11.How can I get a hard copy of the User’s Manual?

The User’s Manual, named Manual.pdf, is provided in the CD-ROM in PDF format. It can be opened and printed with Acrobat Reader. This program, named areng40.exe, is included in the supplied CD-ROM. Double-click on the areng40.exe icon and the installation will start automatically. After installation, double-click the Manual.pdf icon.
