GENERAL TIPS AND TRICKS
Your Spy Pen Camera is a delicate instrument. Remember, a little TLC goes a long
way!
Do not drop it. It will probably be okay, but remember it is a sensitive instrument, so
handle with care.
Do not get it wet. You may record your videos in a light rain, but protect your pen
and don't get it soaking wet.
Do not force things. Instead, gently yet firmly slide cable and/or the micro SD Card
in/out of pen.
Do not press the On/Off Button harder and harder or longer than necessary. There is
no need to panic and force things. Remember, there is a reset button if you need to
start anew.
To reset your Spy Cam Pen, insert a paper clip into reset button for 2 seconds.
You Spy Cam Pen will last for years, with proper care and a bit of TLC!

Get to Know Your Spy Pen Components

STEP 1 –Getting Started
A. Charging Your Spy Pen (First time only, charge for 3 hours.)
Plug the USB cable into the pen and plug the other end into your computer.
(see diagram). Your spy pen's light will blink while charging. Once the blinking
light turns solid, your pen is fully charged. Disconnect the Spy Cam Pen once the
charge is complete. A full charge should accommodate about 1.5 hours of
recording time.
B. Insert the Micro SD Memory Card
Gently, yet firmly slide the micro SD card into your spy pen slot. You should
feel resistance when your micro SD card is fully inserted into the pen.
Approximately 1/8" of the micro SD card will be visible when it's inserted
correctly.

Note: Your spy pen will not work without the micro SD memory card. If SD card is not inserted
properly, red light will flash when pen is turned on. All recordings/photos are stored on the SD
card.
TIPS AND TRICKS
Ensure the micro SD card is pushed in completely; otherwise, it will not collect data
from the recording session.
The status light will blink red to indicate an SD card error. This typically occurs when
the micro SD card is not inserted properly.
Your micro SD card's memory capacity (2GB - 4GB - 8GB - 16GB) will determine how
much data can be recorded while using the Spy Cam Pen.
Your Spy Cam Pen has a rechargeable lithium battery that can accommodate
approximately 1.5 hours of recording time for both videos and photos. You will need
to recharge your spy pen battery to continue your spy mission, even though you'll
have a lot more memory on your micro SD card.
STEP 2 –Turn on the Spy Pen
Power up the Spy Cam Pen by pressing the On/Off Button on the top of the pen for
3 seconds. (To power off, press On/Off Button for 3 seconds.)
Check the status light to ensure the Spy Cam Pen has powered up properly. It will
display a solid green LED light to indicate that the Spy Cam Pen is on and ready to
record or take a photo. (Solid green light indicates Ready Mode.)
STEP 3 –Start Recording Video
Start recording with the Spy Cam Pen by pressing the On/Off Button on the top of
the pen for 2 seconds.
Check the status light. The LED will blink several times to indicate that recording is
about to begin.
Once recording begins, the light goes out (or a dim, delayed blinking light may
occur) so it does not attract attention during a covert recording session.
TIPS AND TRICKS
Remember to take measures to ensure that the camera lens, located above the pen
clip, remains unobstructed during the recording session.
To produce clean, clear recordings, limit the Spy Cam Pen's movement during
recording sessions.
STEP 4 –Ending a Recording Session

To stop recording, administer one quick tap to the On/Off Button on the top of the
pen.
The green LED status light will illuminate to indicate the Spy Cam Pen is in Ready
Mode and prepared to take a photo or resume recording.
TIPS AND TRICKS
To remain in "sleuth" mode and to avoid detection while starting and stopping
recordings, you can stop the recording and then power off your pen to completely
extinguish the green light. It's only one quick click to the On/Off Button to stop the
recording.
If you want to take multiple recordings, simply toggle from recording to stop
recording to recording again.
Once finished recording, remember to power Off your pen by pressing On/Off
Button for 3 seconds.
STEP 5 –Taking a Photo
Take a still photo by administering one quick tap to the On/Off Button on the top
of the pen.
The green LED status light will blink once to indicate that it has captured the
photograph.
Once the photo-taking process is complete, the green LED status light will remain
solid and illuminated to indicate that the Spy Pen is in Ready Mode.
STEP 6 –Viewing Your Recordings and Photos
Unscrew the top of the Spy Cam Pen to expose the USB port.
Connect the USB cable to the Spy Cam Pen and connect the other end to your
computer.
Wait for the Spy Cam Pen micro SD memory card device icon to appear on your
computer desktop. (Or look to your computer’s removable drives for the SD card.)
Double click on the icon/removable drive to open and download the video footage
and photos onto your computer hard drive.
TIPS AND TRICKS
You can also use a micro SD card reader to retrieve the data directly from the
micro SD card.
Download your recordings and images onto your computer before viewing them.
The data transfer speed from your Spy Cam Pen simply isn't fast enough to
accommodate real time viewing; it will cause the footage to appear choppy.
Some computers may not have software programs that will easily play your
recordings. You may wish to download the most recent version of VLC Player. It
can be downloaded for free at http://www.videolan.org.
