INTRODUCTION
The TS07 lashlight 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
2

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
Wi i 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.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The flashlight section of the lashlight 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 lashlight Inspection Camera in the presence
of flammable or explosive gases.

The lashlight Inspection Camera comes in a display box
along with a rechargeable Lithium-ion battery and a USB

SETUP INSTRUCTIONS
CHARGE BATTERY
During charging, the TS07 can be used as a flashlight, but not
as a Wi i video camera. Charging may take up to eight hours.
To c arge t e battery:
1. Power off the TS07 by pressing and holding the and
buttons (Callouts and G on page 5).
2. Unscrew and remove the flashlight/camera head cover
(Callout E).
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.
5. During charging, the Wi i indicator LED (Callout I)
will glow green.
6. When the battery is fully charged the LED’s color will
switch to blue.
7. Replace the flashlight/camera head cover and hand-
tighten it.

OPERATING & MAINTENANCE TIPS
When both LEDs on the lashlight 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 not equipped 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 Wi i camera head when you are finished using them.
When left in the lashlight 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.
