W3 Gear NinjA Micro Owner's Manual - Setting The Time & Date
•
The Wall Bracket (used with the belt/pocket clip) is capable of attaching double side adhesive tape or
Velcro to any suitable surface. This is handy for mounting the clip onto a PC monitor as a webcam. For
permanent installation, we recommend using the screw holes.
•
The standard wall clip needs to be screwed, glued or taped into place. Screws and cable ties are preferred
for resilient mounting option.
Setting the Time & Date
You can setup the NinjA Micro™ camcorder to print the date and time that a recoding was taken directly onto
the video, like a watermark. To enable this function, you’ll just need to set the time and date – the NinjA
Micro™ camcorder will keep track of it from there.
To set the Date and Time:
•
Open
Notepad
. It’s usually located in the Accessories folder in the Start Menu (assuming you’re using a
Microsoft Windows ®). If you don’t have a
Notepad,
any plain text editor will work fine.
•
Enter the date and time in the following format:
[date]
YYYY/MM/DD
HH:MM:SS
So, if it was eight-thirty five in the night on the 21st of February 2012, then the file would read:
[date]
2012/02/21
20:35:00
•
Save this file, naming it “tag.txt”
•
Copy this file to the Micro SD card
•
With the Micro SD card already inserted into NinjA Micro™ camcorder, turn the NinjA Micro™ camcorder
ON.
•
The NinjA Micro™ camcorder will read the text in the file, and update its internal clock to match the date
and time as set by you.
•
The date and time will be updated to the NinjA Micro™ camcorder’s internal clock when it is turned on.
Note: If the NinjA Micro™ battery is completely drained of power or it you’ve pressed the Reset button,
the data and time will be reset.
Connecting to your PC
You can playback the video from Micro SD card in the NinjA Micro™ camcorder by connecting the NinjA
Micro™ camcorder to your computer.
