3 - Brinno TimeLapse Camera NOTE • The maximum size USB flash drive that TimeLapse Camera can support is a 8GB USB Flash Drive. If you use a USB flash drive with a larger memory density the camera will not function properly. • Replace the battery door on the TimeLapse Camera. Make sure to push down the latch until you hear it “click” to ensure the door is closed properly. • With the wheel in the middle of the camera you can choose between one of seven time interval settings. Simply rotate the wheel to choose the desired setting. Custom Time Interval settings: Wheel position Time interval between pictures 1 minute 5 minutes 30 minutes 1 hour 4 hours 24 hours Custom (factory setting = 5 seconds) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 NOTE • The wheel MUST point to number directly, otherwise TimeLapse Camera can not work! • To modify the custom setting, insert the included USB Flash Drive into your computer, and follow the instructions. See “Installing the Software”. • The custom setting can range anywhere from 5 seconds to 12 hours. Factory default custom setting is set to 5 seconds. Mounting your TimeLapse Camera To set your TimeLapse Camera on any standard tripod, screw the tripod clockwise into the hole on the bottom of the camera. Mounting Hole
Brinno TimeLapse Camera - 4 Choose your Lens setting TimeLapse Camera has two lens positions that determine the focal distance and the depth of field of the camera: Standard Setting : Turn the lens to the “mountain” icon position. This will give a depth of field that extends from approximately 1 meter (2.6 feet) and beyond, and is best for getting shots of an entire garden or a large area. Macro Setting : Turn the lens bezel to the “flower” icon position. This setting allows the camera to focus on an object that is approximately 0.5 Meters (19 inches) away from the camera. Because the depth of field is significantly reduced when using this setting, subjects in the background will be out of focus. This setting is best for following the growth of a single bloom, or any other subject that requires close-up observation. The table below shows the approximate image size (width x height) based on the distance between the camera and the subject(s) to be captured. Mode Macro view Standard view Distance from Target Area(Meter / Inch) 0.5m / 19inch 1m / 39 inch 2m / 78 inch 3m / 118 inch Target Area captured Width (cm / inch) 36 cm / 14 inch 75cm / 29 inch 146cm / 57inch 219cm / 86 inch Target Area captured Height (cm / inch) 30cm / 12inch 56cm / 22 inch 110cm / 43 inch 168cm / 66 inch The table above shows some typical distances, but since TimeLapse Camera is capable of focusing on objects that are far away, it can also be used to photograph many other subjects. For example, you could set up TimeLapse Camera to take a photo once every 24 hours to capture the process of a house being built over several months. Or get a picture of the sunset every day for a year. The possibilities are only limited by your imagination and creativeness! NOTE • The AVI files created by TimeLapse Camera can be viewed on the program “TimeLapse Camera Player” in the CD or using Windows media player, or most other AVI players. After choosing the lens setting appropriate to the subject to be photographed, the camera should be aimed so that the lens is pointing at the center of the subject. Because the field of view of the lens is quite wide, the positioning of the TimeLapse Camera does not have to be extremely precise. But because a typical time lapse sequence takes place over a long period of time, it is suggested that a short test session (with a short time interval) be used to ensure correct positioning of the TimeLapse Camera. Once the positioning has been verified, then the desired time interval for the full time lapse sequence can be set, and its time to take pictures.
TimeLapse Camera Operation On the front of the TimeLapse Camera, above the lens, there are three LED lights. These LEDs allow you to monitor the status of the camera without having to move the camera from its mounted position. 5 - Brinno TimeLapse Camera Each LED supports a different function: Green LED light: Power ON/OFF and status Red LED light: Low battery level Blue LED light: Low USB flash drive level Beep: Power ON: Two beeps Power OFF: Three beeps Register setting change: Three beeps Error status: Six beeps (error = no USB flash driver, USB memory short, low battery) To turn on the TimeLapse Camera Press and hold the orange power button on the front of the camera until the green LED lights up. After a few seconds the TimeLapse Camera will beep twice to indicate it has properly initialized and is waiting to start a time-lapse sequence. After a delay of approximately 5 seconds the TimeLapse Camera will take the first picture of the time-lapse sequence. NOTE • If the USB flash drive is full, or the batteries are completely empty, TimeLapse Camera will not turn on. If the batteries are too low for normal operation, it will turn on and beep twice, the red LED will turn on, and then TimeLapse Camera will beep six times and turn off. If the USB flash drive is full, or not installed, TimeLapse Cam will turn on and beep twice, then after a few seconds the blue LED will turn on, then TimeLapse Camera will beep six times and turn off. • When TimeLapse Camera is in operation the green LED will turn on for about one second every 15 seconds to indicate that the camera is running properly and is ready to take photos. • If there is any other status to report, the camera will do so at the same time as the green LED flashes. If the batteries are getting low the red LED will turn on in unison with the green LED. If the USB flash drive is getting close to being full, then the blue LED will turn on in unison with the green LED. • If the camera has previously automatically shut down due to low batteries or a full USB flash drive, the next time the power button is pressed the red or blue LED will turn on and will stay on until the green LED turns on. This allows you to determine the cause of the automatic shutdown so that the appropriate corrective action can be taken. • The green LED will also turn on and flicker for a few seconds while a picture is captured at the chosen time setting, and then is stored on the USB flash drive. This indication of TimeLapse Camera activity is independent of the status indication that occurs every 15 seconds. To turn off the TimeLapse Camera Press and hold the orange power button until the TimeLapse Camera beeps three times and the green LED turns off. This may take several seconds because the TimeLapse Camera must first power itself on and initialize before it recognizes the turn off request. Please be patient and wait for the beeps and LED indication.
