4.1 Setting Recording Parameters

The TLC300 offers straightforward operation. You primarily need to set the 'interval' and 'schedule' before starting a recording.

• Intervall: This defines how often the camera captures an image. Adjust this setting based on the duration of your project and the desired speed of the final time-lapse video.
• Rute: Use the schedule function to specify filming days and times. This ensures the camera only records during active periods, conserving battery life and storage.
• Oppløsning: The camera records in Full HD 1080P. Ensure HDR is enabled for optimal image quality, especially for day-to-night transitions.

After configuring your settings, press the OK button to begin recording. The camera will automatically start capturing images according to your set interval and schedule. To stop recording, press the Power button again.

5. Vedlikehold

• Rengjøring: Bruk en myk, tørr klut til å rengjøre kamerahuset og objektivet. Unngå slipende materialer eller sterke kjemikalier.
• Batterilevetid: The TLC300 offers up to 100 days of battery life with a 5-minute capture interval using 4 AA batteries. Monitor battery levels regularly, especially for long-term projects.
• Lagring: Periodically transfer your time-lapse videos from the SD card to a computer or external storage device to free up space and prevent data loss. The camera supports Micro SD cards up to 128GB.
• Linsedeksel: Always use the provided lens cover when the camera is not in use to protect the lens from dust and scratches.

6. Feilsøking

• Dårlig bildekvalitet: Check lens for smudges or dirt. Ensure HDR is enabled for challenging lighting conditions. Verify the lens cover is removed.
• Opptaket starter ikke: Confirm that the interval and schedule settings are correctly configured. Ensure the SD card has sufficient free space.
