vehicular traffic, and surface conditions around you in order to prevent

accidents.

· Do not use the watch inside of an aircraft.

Never use the watch inside of an aircraft or in any other area where the use

of such devices is prohibited. Doing so creates the risk of accident.

Note

· All watch button operations are disabled while the record operation is in

progress.

· The watch stays in the Camera Mode for about one minute after you

enter it. Then it automatically enters the VISUAL DATABANK Mode

and displays the last image recorded. See "Camera Rest Interval" for

more information.

· The message FULL appears on the display to indicate that memory is full.

You will not be able to enter the Camera Mode while this message is

displayed. If this happens, delete images you no longer need to make

room for more images.

Camera Mode Precautions

General

· Never touch the surface of the lens with your fingers.

· Take care that you do not accidentally move the watch when you press F

to release the shutter.

· Insufficient lighting can result in poor images. Shoot in daylight whenever

possible. At night, shoot indoors in a well-lit area.

Camera Rest Interval

Camera Mode operations consume considerable battery power. To protect

against premature rundown of its battery, the watch automatically goes into a

rest interval, during which you will be unable to re-enter the Camera Mode

after you exit it. The length of the rest interval is equal to the amount of time

you spent in the Camera Mode before you exited it. This means that if you

exit the Camera Mode after being in it for 20 seconds, you will be unable to

re-enter the Camera Mode for about 20 seconds.

If you try to enter the Camera Mode during a

rest interval, the message WAIT appears on

the display, along with a countdown of the

remaining rest interval time.

· The maximum rest interval is 60 seconds.

Alarm, Hourly Time Signal, Countdown Alarm Sounds

The watch does not emit any alarm, Hourly Time Signal, or Countdown Alarm

sound while it is in the Camera Mode.

Controlling the Camera Mode Image

You can use the following procedures to adjust the brightness and to specify

the type of lighting present when recording an image.

Adjusting the Image Brightness

The watch automatically sets the brightness of the image when you record it.

You can also change the brightness level manually when you want to

compensate for backlighting of the subject, very dark backgrounds, etc.

To adjust image brightness

When composing an image on the display, use

B (darker) and E (lighter) to adjust its

brightness.

· You can set brightness to one of 15 levels.

The initial default level is 8.

· It may take some time after you press B or

E before the change in brightness is

reflected on the displayed image.

· A brightness setting you make remains in

effect until you change it or exit the Camera

Mode. Automatic brightness adjustment is

the initial default whenever you enter the

Camera Mode.

Important!

· Even with manual brightness adjustment, you may not be able to obtain an

acceptable image when recording images under very bright or very dark

lighting conditions.

Specifying the Lighting Type

The type of lighting present when recording, greatly affects the resulting

image. Besides the difference between outdoor and indoor lighting, there is

also a difference between indoor lighting types.

Though you cannot see it, light produced by indoor lighting fixtures actually

flickers at a fixed rate, which is the same as the cycle of the lighting fixture's

AC power (50Hz or 60Hz). You can use the following procedure to tell the

watch the type of lighting you are using, so it can make necessary

adjustments that ensure best results.

To specify the lighting type

In the Camera Mode, press A to cycle through the available lighting type

settings as shown below.

· The lighting type setting screen remains on the display for about one

second. After that, it returns to the normal Camera Mode screen.

· A lighting type setting you make remains in effect until you change it or exit

the Camera Mode. Outdoor lighting is the initial default whenever you enter

the Camera Mode.

Recording Modes

There are three recording modes that you can use to produce the type of

image you want.

Normal Mode

This mode records images using 16 grayscales. It is the normal default mode.

Merge Mode

This mode lets you merge two separately recorded images into a single

image.

Art Mode

This mode records images in two-tone monochrome.

Darker

Lighter

To select the recording mode

In the Camera Mode, press C to cycle through the available recording

modes as shown below.

· The recording mode you select remains in effect until you change it or exit

the Camera Mode. The Normal Mode is the initial default whenever you

enter the Camera Mode.

To record using the Merge Mode

1. In the Camera Mode, press C once to

select the Merge Mode.

2. Compose the first image, and then press

F to record it.

· This records the first image on the left half

of the display.

3. Compose the second image, and then

press F to record it.

· This records the second image on the right

half of the display, and stores both images

in memory.

Important!

· A Merge Mode image that has only a left side cannot be stored in memory.

Note

· Before pressing F in steps 2 and 3 of the above procedure, you can use

the procedure ("To adjust image brightness") to adjust the brightness of the

image.

To record using the Art Mode

1. In the Camera Mode, press C twice to select the Art Mode.

2. Compose the image, and then press F to record it.

VISUAL DATABANKTM MODE

Besides viewing images, you can use the VISUAL DATABANK Mode to

delete images, to attach text to images, etc.

Important!

Alarm sound while it is in the VISUAL DATABANK Mode. Instead, the

message ALM flashes in the upper left corner of the display when an alarm

time is reached, and the message TMR flashes when the countdown

reaches zero.

To view recorded images

1. In the Timekeeping Mode, press D to enter the VISUAL DATABANK

Mode.

· The first image that appears is the one you just recorded or the one that

date and time (and attached text, if any) of

the displayed image on and off.

3. Press D five times to return to the

Timekeeping Mode.

· The watch automatically switches to the

Timekeeping Mode if you do not perform

any operation for about two minutes in the

VISUAL DATABANK Mode.

Note

· You can use the procedure under "Image Sorting" for information about

how images are sorted when they are stored in memory.

· The image may appear somewhat dark while the recording date and time

(and attached text, if any) are on the display.
