Direct or Wireless transmitting modes
Your DCS1800 provides two transmitting modes, “Direct Mode” and “Wireless Mode”.
Direct Mode – Simply insert the insertion tube controller into the USB socket located on the back of the
console. This will automatically activate the Direct Mode transmitting mode. During Direct Mode, all
images are transmitted through the wired socket, not wirelessly. This can be helpful when working in an
area where other high frequency wireless equipment is being used because there will be no interference
with the video signal.
Wireless Mode –
DCS1800 also has a built-in wireless transmission function. It will adjust to Wireless
Mode automatically once the console and insertion tube controller are separated.
System Modes
The DCS1800 provides three simple working modes: Preview, Browse and Manual Mode.
Preview Mode The Preview Mode is activated as soon as the unit is turned on. The image received
by the camera is displayed in real time on the video monitor. The user can capture
photos and video recordings while in the Preview Mode.
Browse Mode In Browse Mode, users may view photos and video, and conduct basic file maintain-
ance .
Manual Mode In Manual Mode, users may customize their set up preferences.
Note: The system returns to Preview Mode automatically after 10 seconds without any response in Manual Model.
