Using the universal camera mount Hi, ClaireWe can use: Universal Mount Bike Mount Adhesive discs (FYI: used with Universal Mount) You can mount your camera in many places, for example on your helmet or on the handlebars using the optional bike mount. Once mounted you can move your camera in the following ways: You can lift it up and down by 90 degrees, known as the pitch. You can twist it around by 360 degrees, know as yaw. You can roll the whole camera by 100 degrees to the left or right. Using a disc adapter to mount your camera The disc adapter kit lets you mount your camera on a helmet or other flat or slightly curved surface. The kit contains 2 adhesive discs and a universal adapter. 1. Attach the adhesive disc to your chosen surface. Firmly press it into place to ensure full contact over its entire surface. Follow these tips to make sure that the adhesive disc is secure: Apply the adhesive disc only to a clean and dry surface. Wax, oil, dirt and moisture reduce adhesion, which can result in a weak bond. Attach the adhesive disc in dry, room-temperature conditions. The adhesive disc won't be secure if you attach it in damp and cold conditions. Attach the adhesive disc only to a smooth and hard surface. The adhesive disc won't securely attach to porous, textured or soft surfaces. When you attach the adhesive disc, Regularly check the security of the adhesive disc. 2. Attach the universal disc adapter to the adhesive disc by first fully opening the mount. 3. Push the mount onto the disc at any yaw angle until you hear a click. 4. Fold down the camera platform to any angle between 90 degrees to horizontal and fully closed. This locks the mount to the disc. 5. Push down the lever to lock the mount. 6. Mount the camera on the camera platform. 7. Set the desired angle of shot. Explain pitch, yaw and roll here? You can see from amlibu app what you are focusing on/pointing on. Note: To remove the mount, reverse the above instructions. 10 Switching on and off Switching on your Action Camera Press the START button (button 2) at the back of the camera for 2 seconds to switch your camera on.

Move up or down to turn it on. Note: When connecting the camera to the remote control for the first time, any button press on the remote control tells the camera that the remote control is out there and ready for connection. Tip: The Viewfinder of the Mobile App also has remote control features – see MOBILE APP. The remote control can control up to 50 cameras simultaneously from up to 180m in optimal conditions. It has a small LCD screen which mirrors what is shown on the Camera Status screen. The remote control can only be used with one camera at a time. If you want to connect your remote control to a different camera, repeat the instructions above with the remote control in range of the new camera. Note: To change settings on the camera using the remote control, the camera needs to be in Wi-Fi mode.

This makes it easier for you to find the highlights in the video when reviewing it and adds context like your GPS trace or a speed graph. There are two types of sensors for your camera - built-in sensors and external sensors. Built-in sensors For more information about built-in sensors, see Sensors in your camera. External sensors External sensors are external devices that you can link to your camera to provide extra information about your activity. You can attach an external heart rate monitor using a Bluetooth Smart (BLE) connection. This sensor measures your heart rate during your sport or activity. The external TomTom Heart Rate Monitor is available as an accessory. Your camera tries to connect to external sensors when recording starts and/or when you look at a Metrics screen. When recording stops, or the Metrics screen is closed, the connection to the sensor is dropped. Note: Your camera stores a .GPX and a .KML file for each recorded video. These files make it easy for you to access sensor data directly using a computer. See Using KML and GPX file data - Camera. The heart rate monitor To use the external TomTom Heart Rate Monitor with your camera, do the following: 1. Attach the monitor to the strap. 2. Attach the strap around your chest, so the monitor sits just above the base of your chest bone. Make sure the monitor is the right way up so that the word 'TomTom' is the right way up for someone standing in front of you. 29 Tip: Wet the sensors on the inside of the strap before placing it around your chest. This makes it easier for the monitor to pick up your heartbeat. 3. From the Camera Status screen on your camera, move down to open the SETTINGS screen. 4. 5. 6. 7. Select GENERAL then select CONNECT. Select SENSORS then move right. Select HEART, then move right to turn it on. When you begin an activity, your camera connects to the monitor and you see a heart icon at the top of the screen. When your camera is trying to connect to the monitor, the heart flashes. The first time your camera tries to connect to your monitor, if it finds more than one monitor, your camera doesn't know which monitor to connect to. Move to a place where there are no other monitors within range of your camera. When you have connected to your monitor once, your camera always reconnects to your monitor. You can also use the external Heart Rate Monitor with other Bluetooth® Smart Ready devices and apps. See the documentation that comes with your product or app for more information. To change the CR2032 battery on the monitor, use a coin to open the back of the monitor. The battery must be recycled or disposed of according to local laws and regulations. Note: The TomTom Heart Rate Monitor is not waterproof. 30 Recording videos About recording videos You can use your Action Camera to take videos in the following modes: Video - Use this mode to record normal high-quality videos.
