Reformatting the Micro SD card. Midland XTC400 HD

Reformatting the Micro SD card

Note: Before the first usage Format the microSD card following this procedure

The micro SD card can be reformatted while in the camera. This allows you to completely delete all the files at one time. Follow these steps:

1. Press and hold the format button

2. Move the RECORD switch to the forward/ON position.

3. The camera will beep 4 times and the icon will alternate blinking red and blue

When complete, the camera will beep twice, then turn off.

Rotating Lens

To maintain upright orientation for your video when the camera is mounted at an angle, the XTC400’s lens can rotate 180° in one direction and -90° in the other. There are indentations every 90° to enable you to twist the lens into place at commonly used angles.

External Microphone

To connect your camera to an external microphone, first open the rubber cover and then insert the 3.5mm microphone jack into the plug. If you are using a headset, the left speaker will be used as the microphone. In addition, you may also connect an mp3 player to directly record music to your video.

HDMI

Connect your micro HDMI cable (not included) to both devices –camera and tv/monitor. Once connected, switch the camera to the ON (forward) position. This will enable live streaming, but will not record.

When the switch is moved back to the OFF position, video playback will start from the micro SD card. To skip to the next file, toggle the switch ON. For the next file, toggle the switch OFF. Continue in this manner to flip through your files. You can always skip forward to the following file, but cannot move backward to previous files. If you would like to return to a previous file, you must either unplug the device from the HDMI cable and plug it in again, or loop through all of your files.

Battery

The included lithium-ion battery comes partially charged.

To charge, connect the included micro USB cable to camera and connect the other end of the cable to a power source such as a computer, wall charger or vehicle charger. No damage will occur to the camera or battery if used prior to a full charge. See page 20 for battery status indications.
