button once you reach the desired main menu option, then the down button to access
the submenu choices. To exit a menu or submenu, push the X button.

Menu Options Glossary
New Panorama – Sets the upper left photo and the lower right photo that defines the
rectangular area of the panorama.
360 Panorama - Sets the upper pitch and the lower pitch of a panorama that is 360
degrees and completes a full circle.
Last Panorama - The EPIC will use the settings from the most recent panorama
photographed or set up.
Options – Contains submenus that allow you to change more settings.
Time per Pic - The amount of time that the EPIC will wait until it moves the camera. It is
important to allow enough time for the camera to process the current photograph and
move the data to flash memory. This is the most likely reason the camera would miss a
photograph.
Battery status – This option will tell you what the voltage level of the batteries is. A
voltage of 9 volts means that the batteries are fully charged. A voltage of around 7 volts
means your batteries will not be able to operate the EPIC for much longer.
