See
Understanding the POV.HD Record Methods
for additional information about how the POV.HD
determines	
  how	
  much	
  video	
  to	
  save	
  in	
  order	
  to	
  ensure	
  that	
  you	
  capture	
  the	
  action	
  immediately	
  before	
  and	
  
immediately	
  after	
  each	
  tag.	
  
To	
  set	
  the	
  Record	
  Method,	
  use	
  the	
  Settings	
  menu.	
  
Record	
  using	
  the	
  wireless	
  remote	
  
The	
  POV.HD	
  allows	
  you	
  to	
  control	
  recording	
  and	
  set	
  tags	
  on	
  a	
  video	
  clip	
  without	
  accessing	
  the	
  recorder.	
  This	
  
allows	
  you	
  to	
  stow	
  the	
  recorder	
  in	
  an	
  out-‐of-‐the	
  way	
  place	
  while	
  recording.	
  It	
  also	
  allows	
  you	
  to	
  place	
  the	
  
recorder	
  and	
  camera	
  head	
  up	
  to	
  15	
  feet	
  from	
  where	
  you	
  are.	
  
The	
  wireless	
  remote	
  operates	
  on	
  any	
  one	
  of	
  10	
  frequency	
  channels	
  which	
  allows	
  multiple	
  POV.HD’s	
  and	
  POV.1	
  
series	
  devices	
  to	
  operate	
  in	
  the	
  same	
  vicinity	
  without	
  interfering	
  with	
  each	
  other.	
  
The	
  wireless	
  remote	
  comes	
  set	
  for	
  channel	
  0	
  and	
  the	
  recorder	
  is	
  set	
  to	
  receive	
  channel	
  0	
  as	
  well.	
  Unless	
  you	
  
need	
  to	
  operate	
  in	
  the	
  vicinity	
  of	
  other	
  POV	
  systems,	
  there	
  is	
  no	
  reason	
  why	
  this	
  needs	
  to	
  be	
  changed.	
  If	
  you	
  
do	
  need	
  to	
  change	
  the	
  wireless	
  remote	
  communication	
  channel,	
  refer	
  to

Record still photos
1. In Settings, change the Record Method to Still Photo.
2. Press the REC button on the recorder. As for any other Record Method,
Standby
will be displayed in
the	
  upper	
  left,	
  and	
  “Still	
  Photo”	
  will	
  be	
  displayed	
  in	
  the	
  top	
  center	
  of	
  the	
  LCD.	
  The	
  LCD	
  will	
  show	
  the	
  
through-‐the-‐camera	
  preview.	
  
3. To capture a still photo, press either the REC button or the Save soft key. “Still Photo” will appear
briefly	
  in	
  place	
  of	
  “Standby”,	
  and	
  the	
  captured	
  still	
  photo	
  will	
  be	
  displayed	
  on	
  the	
  LCD	
  for	
  
approximately	
  1	
  second.	
  
4. When the recorder is in Still Photo Standby, you can capture still photos using the wireless remote as
well.	
  Every	
  time	
  you	
  press	
  REC	
  on	
  the	
  recorder	
  or	
  REC/TAG	
  on	
  the	
  remote	
  another	
  still	
  photo	
  is	
  
captured.	
  
When you set the Record Method to Still Photo, it remains in Still Photo until
you change it using the Settings menu. If you power down, the recorder will be
in Still Photo Standby when it is powered up. If you leave Record mode, the
recorder will return to Still Photo Standby when you press the REC button.
