I) Camera Precautions

Notice the following guidelines when using your camera.

• For your safety, do not press buttons on the camera during sports activities
• Do not place this camera in a damp or dusty location for extended periods of time. This may cause a fire or an electrical shock.
• Do not leave this camera in places subject to extremely high temperatures, such as in direct sunlight for extended periods of time. This may effect the camera case and internal components.
• When the lens is dirty, please clean it with a blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one end that you pump to produce a stream of air out the other). If there is a fingerprint or other spot that cannot be removed with a blower, then wipe in a spiraling motion using a soft cloth.
• The working temperature range of a normal AAA battery is 0 - 45°C. Above or below this temperature the functionality of the batteries will be effected.
• Remove the batteries and memory card before storing the camera for long periods of time. Then, keep it in a well-ventilated place in order to prevent molding.
• Under the following circumstances, have the camera repaired by qualified personnel. a) The plug is damaged or worn.

b) The device has been dropped and/or the casing has been damaged.

c) Liquid has entered the camera.

Although your ATC-1000 is splash-resistant, you should not submerge the camera or expose it to the rain. You should also avoid dropping it, as the camera is not 'shock-proof'. If you want to use your ATC-1000 for watersports, check with your Oregon Scientific dealer about the availability of our waterproof case.

f) Resolution

This camera lets you select from three photo resolutions: 640 x 480, 320 x 240, and 160 x 120 pixels. High resolution photos are better quality because they have more pixels. The lower resolutions have fewer pixels but allow you to take more photos. The number of photos your camera can take depends on the resolution you choose. Since the LCD can only display four digits at a time, SD memory cards with high storage capability will have more photos or time available than the screen can display. In this case, the screen will display "9999" until the number of photos or the amount of time available has decreased enough to be displayed accurately. To switch between high resolution medium resolution and low resolution, press the 'Menu' button until the 'Status LCD' displays the correct icon. Press the 'Enter' button to confirm your selection.

Troubleshooting

Before contacting an authorized service center at 1-800-853-8883 or sending an email to [e-mail], carry out the following simple checks. They may save you the time of an unnecessary service call.

There's no display

-Are the batteries installed properly?

-Do the batteries need replacing?

After ATC-1000 is connected to my PC, it cannot find the new drive

-Make sure each end of the ATC-1000 USB cable is properly and firmly connected.

-Make sure 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 not be working properly. In this case, contact your system manufacturer or the manufacturer of your USB card.

I can't capture video footage or images

-Make sure there is space on the internal memory or on the SD card; the display will tell you how much time is left for video or how many photos you have space for.

-Make sure the SD card is not locked if you have inserted the SD card. The letters "Err" will be displayed if the SD card is locked.

Troubleshooting (continued)

The remaining time is not accurate

-The remaining time is not always accurate because it is only an estimate. The remaining time depends not only on the time recorded, but on the color density of 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

-Make sure each end of the AV cable is properly and firmly connected to AIC-1000 and to your television.

-Make sure the AIC-1000 is turned on.

Some captured video clips or images cannot be found on the SD card

-The video footage or image may be stored on the internal memory. Connect AIC-1000 to your PC without an SD card, and it will show the files in the internal memory.
