Quick Start Guide

Before using the HT-10, familiarize yourself with the power switch modes:

  • OFF: Powers down the camera.
  • TEST: Used for camera setup and function testing. The camera does not shoot automatically in this mode. The LCD screen is bright, showing the current work mode, pixel parameter, and remaining memory card capacity.
  • ON: Enables motion-triggered shooting or time interval shooting based on settings. If TIME LAPSE is off, the camera captures photos/videos upon motion detection. If TIME LAPSE is on, it captures at regular intervals regardless of motion.

Innovative Design: In TEST mode, the lid must be closed and locked with the fixed buckle for the camera to effectively enter ON mode. When viewing the camera, turn it on, and the screen will awaken for easy photo viewing and settings adjustment.
