Overview
Figure 1 (appearance may vary –features do not)
Figure 1 shows the controls that the watch has. Nothing appears out of the ordinary, it looks and
works just like a standard watch. However it is packed full of useful features which enable anyone to
monitor and record events.
Controls
Change Time
The change time button works just like a normal watch, pull out and set the time accordingly by
twisting clockwise or anti-clockwise.
USB: Syncing and Charging
This button is actually a cap. To unscrew the cap twist it anti-clockwise, you are now able to insert
the USB cable that is supplied with the watch to charge the internal battery and transfer the files
that are saved on the watch.
When you are not using the USB cable put the cap back on by screwing it clockwise.
Microphone
The microphone works just like any other; it will capture the sound for the videos and audio
recorder.

Timestamp Edit
You may need to update the internal clock for the timestamp shown in images and videos.
To do this, you will need to create a Text file with the date and time.
1) Plug the camera into your computer by using a USB cable.
2) It will appear as a Removable Disk.
3) Open the Removable Disk; you might have a folder called DCIM and a text file called “time”
already there.
4) If you already have a file called “time” then move onto Step 7.
5) Right click in the white space and a menu will appear (Figure 3), move down to “New” and
select “Text Document”.
