Recording with your ARCHOS Helmet Cam
Your ARCHOS Helmet CamCorder will be powered through your ARCHOS device, so be sure to charge 
it fully when intending to make longer recordings.
You can clip the controller of your ARCHOS Helmet CamCorder for example onto your shirt pocket.
The camera itself is typically fitted into the headband and worn so that you record what you see.
The next two sections explain the two options for making a recording: using the camera controller, or 
using the Video recorder application of your ARCHOS device, which lets you set a number of param-
eters.
Making a Recording Using the Camera Controller
To start recording: 
Press the  Start/Stop  button on your camera controller. The red and green lights will momentarily go 
on, and on the screen of your ARCHOS device, you will see a message indicating that a video signal is
detected. The image transmitted from the camera will then be displayed and the recording will start.
To stop recording: 
Press the  Start/Stop  button on the camera controller again. This time, only the green light will display. 
This indicates that the recording has stopped. The ARCHOS device will now save your video file and
take you to the folder where the video is saved.
Note: pressing the  Start/Stop button on the controller also works while the buttons of your ARCHOS
device are locked. You can thus conveniently make a recording while carrying your ARCHOS device in 
a backpack, for example.
