Camera Mounting and Aiming Mount on Dual Track SystemThe XTC-200 was innovatively designed with an identical dual track mount system on either side of the camera. This allows you to mount it on both sides of a helmet with ease. In addition, the main mount piece is interchangeable and can be moved from the helmet mount to the goggle mount. This eliminates the hassle of having to remount the camera every time.To mount the camera on the main mount piece, slide the camera onto the dual track system with the two notches on the mount facing towards the back of the camera.To detach the camera from the main mount, hold the camera with the lens facing away from you. Press down the mount release switch and pull the mount towards yourself.Dual TrackMounting SystemMount Release SwitchInterchangeableMountAiming the Camera when mounted with the dual track mount:When mounting the camera on a helmet, you must do the following:1. Consider what you would like to shoot and mount the camera accordingly- left side, right side or top. 2. Find a at surface and ensure the area is clean of dirt and debris. Remove the cover of the adhesive pad and adhere to the helmet. 3. Once attached, adjust the camera to be sure you are not lming the sky or the ground. Mount using the Thread Mount

lows the camera to be mounted to a tripod or other xture with a 1/4-20

(1/4” diameter, 20 threads per inch) 5/16 deep thread. The vented

helmet strap mount is a screw type mount. To afx the camera, insert

the screw on the mount into the camera thread and rotate the camera

clockwise to tighten down onto the screw. Thread MountScrew Mount Aiming the Camera when mounted with the thread mount:

When mounting the camera on the handlebars of a bike or with the

vented helmet strap mount follow these steps:
