3. Turn on the camera
Remove the camera from the backpack and press
the power button on the back of the device—a white
light on the front of the camera will appear indicating
it is powered on.
4. Look for the angle adapter under the camera
Check that the angle adapter is properly fastened to
the bottom of the camera.
5. Attach the camera to the tripod
Pull the latch open on the tripod rapid connect
adapter and slide the camera (with the attached an-
gle adapter) onto this base. It should click once it’s
secure. Next, use the brass lever to lock the camera
into place. Make sure the camera is facing the eld
away from the sun, angled downwards and aligned
with the sideline.
7. Loop the safety cables around the stakes
Take the loose end of the safety cable and loop
around the hook of a stake. Do not tie the safety
cable to the stake. Repeat these steps with the
remaining two safety cables and stakes.
8. Stabilize the tripod
Push stakes into the ground, out away from the
tripod; using the metal safety cable adjuster, tighten
the safety cables, each a little bit at a time to ensure
all three safety cables are even.
9. Continue on to Step 04 to complete your setup.
6. Raise the camera
Raise the tripod to the recommended height, based
on your distance from the sideline—between 12 feet
and 20 feet or 3.6 meters and 6 meters. Check
page 12 for exact height and distance measurements.
Keep all knobs tightened, even the ones with
sections that aren’t extended. This will help keep the
camera pointed in the correct direction in case of
high winds.
