The TS07 Flashlight Inspection Camera is ideal for making inspections of equipment and areas that are open enough to not require the maneuverability of a flexible borescope probe. Lighting for the line-of-sight camera is provided by a powerful LED flashlight that can be used independently. One

obvious application for the TS07 is documenting—with high-definition, date- and time-stamped video and photos—the rounds of security guards.

The TS07 can be used as a standalone flashlight, or with General's free ToolSmart™ app running on your mobile phone.

When used in concert with an iPhone® or Android™ smartphone, the TS07 can stream—via a self-generated local WiFi hotspot (without Internet access)—to the phone all live video it “sees”. The phone initiates the transfer using the ToolSmart™ app, which can be downloaded from the iTunes® App Store or Google Play Store.

Soft buttons on the app can be pressed to save video clips and capture still photos of the video stream.

KEY FEATURES

• Combines a powerful LED flashlight with a high-definition video recording camera
• LED flashlight can be used separately or to illuminate camera's field of view. Brightness and illumination modes (including fast strobe and "S-O-S" transmission in Morse code) are controllable from front panel.
• Aluminum flashlight/camera head cover, with knurled non-slip thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) grip and rubber overmold

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The flashlight section of the Flashlight Inspection Camera uses three 2-watt LED lights that are powerful enough to disorient or cause short-term vision problems for anyone looking directly at them. Avoid staring at those lights—especially when the flashlight is operated in full power or fast strobe mode.

Keep the TS07 out of the hands of children.

Do not use the Flashlight Inspection Camera in the presence of flammable or explosive gases.

SETUP INSTRUCTIONS

CHARGE BATTERY

During charging, the TS07 can be used as a flashlight, but not as a WiFi video camera. Charging may take up to eight hours.

To charge the battery:

1. Power off the TS07 by pressing and holding the and buttons (Callouts F and G on page 5).
2. Unscrew and remove the battery compartment (Callout J).
3. Remove and discard the clear plastic battery activation disc.
4. Insert the cylindrical plug end of the included USB cable into the jack exposed by unscrewing the head (Callout C), and the full-size (standard-A) USB plug at the other end into a USB port of your computer or a socket of a USB AC power adapter.

If you do not already own a USB AC power adapter (most smartphones include one), you can purchase one on-line or at many retail stores for less than \$5. Be aware that “trickle” charging the TS07 through a USB port of your computer will take much longer than charging it from an AC outlet.

1. During charging, the Wi-Fi indicator LED (Callout I) will blink/flash green.

2. When the battery is fully charged the LED's color will switch to solid green.

3. Replace the flashlight/camera head cover and hand-tighten it.

When both LEDs on the Flashlight Inspection Camera begin flashing green to indicate that that the battery is becoming low on charge, charge the battery by connecting the TS07 to a power source, using the “Charge Battery” Setup instructions on page 6 as a guide.

The TS07 is notequipped with an Auto Power Off (APO) feature that would automatically power off the unit after a fixed period of inactivity. To avoid having to recharge the battery often, remember to power off both the flashlight and the WiFi camera head when you are finished using them.

When left in the Flashlight Inspection Camera for an extended period of time, the Lithium-ion battery may corrode and release toxic chemicals capable of permanently damaging the unit. Remove the battery when preparing the TS07 for long-term storage, and also when you do not intend to use it for weeks or months.

Use an anti-static microfiber cloth to clean the TS07 housing and other structures. Never use abrasive or chemical cleaning agents.
