Basic Operation
 

There are 2 push buttons and a power on/off Switch. The power switch does nothing more than turn power on or off. The "M" or mode button selects the different modes like Sound activated recording, Video recording, Pictures or Sound recording. The "Stop/Record" button does just what is sez but also acts as the snapshot button for taking pictures.

Mode Button: "M"

Dont press mode select button too fast, it needs a pause between each push.

 Sound activation mode. Turn on power switch, press the "M" button once, if you tap on the front of the camera or talk into it you will see a blue led start blinking meaning its recording. The blue led will slow blink for 2 minutes as it records then blue led shuts off leaving only the red led still on. This means the camera is in standby mode waiting for another sound to start recording again. To stop sound activation press the Stop/Record button.

 Video cam mode. Turn on power switch, press the M button twice slowly. Press the Stop/Record button. The blue led will fast flash until you stop the video. To stop recording press Stop/Record button again.

 Picture mode. Turn on power switch, press M button 3 times slowly. To take a picture press the Stop/Record button to take a snap shot. Each time you take a snap shot the blue led will flash once.

 Sound recording mode. Turn on power switch, press the M button 4 times slowly. Press the Stop/Record button. The blue led will remain solid during sound recording. This will only record sound no video. To stop recording press the Stop/Record button.

Pressing the Stop/Record button saves recording.
Holding the M button down for 3 seconds saves recording and shuts off camera.
You can then turn off power switch.

 
Camera Drive
 
When connecting the cam using the USB connector for the first time a box will pop up "installing drivers" which are the USB mass storage device and video camera USB device. A new drive will be listed on your pc, as example: Removable Disk (J;)
 
Pictures and Videos
 
All media will be saved to the "DCIM/100MEDIA folder on the camera drive. Right click any of the media files you created in the folder for options like Cut, Copy, Paste, Delete. What I do is select all files then Cut and paste them to a folder on my pc, this deletes them off SD card and saves them to pc.

Basically 15 minutes of video around 1 GB
Pictures are about 350KB each at 1280x1024

File names for all recorded media start with SUNPxxxx

 
Charging
 
During charging the red led will slow flash, when fully charged the red led will stop flashing. USB takes about 2 hours to charge if the battery is completely empty. If the red led does not blink and you know the battery is low try replacing the USB cable, in many cases this solves the problem.

SD Cards
 

SD cards range from 2-32 GB. The cards used are the Micro SD/TF/SDHC with storage space 4GB/8GB/16GB/32GB. Tip: TF = TransFlash, SDHC = Secure Digital High Capacity. Your local computer store may sell these cards but you will probably find them cheaper online. The higher the class number (2, 4, 6...) the faster the read/write speed. Transcend, Kinston, and SanDisk are popular brands. 4GB class 4 or higher recommended. Class numbers will be circled, see pic below.

Class is the rate in which data flows to and from the card.
Example:
Class 2 = 2MB/second
Class 8 = 8MB/second
Class 10 = 10MB/second
This is the minimum data transfer for each card.

When inserting the SD card the brass pins on card will face towards back of camera.

To remove or insert SD card push card IN until you hear a "click" sound.

 
Setting Time and Date
 

Windows software to set time and date automatically using USB

2K_Ez_Configuration

To set time and date manually you need to make a text file called Tag.txt
Open notepad and type this in as shown:

[date] Space/Enter
2010/01/01 Add your date then Space/Enter
12:06:20
Add your time

Save the notepad file as Tag.txt

There are a few ways to add this file to the camera.

Using a SD card reader or SD adapter place the Tag.txt file onto the SD card next to the DCIM folder, then plug SD card back into camera and the next time you power up camera it should be set.

Using USB place the Tag.txt file next to the camera folder named DCIM (this is the root of camera)

Using USB place the Tag.txt file onto the drive letter of your camera by going to start/computer/camera drive /then drag and drop or copy and paste the file onto the drive letter.

Unplug the camera and power it off. Next time you turn it on the file will be accepted and the time and date will change. If you cant figure it out heres the TAG.txt  I made, just change the numbers to your date and time. Once the Tag.txt has been accepted the camera will delete it, so you will no longer see it next to DCIM folder anymore.

Removing the Time and Date:

As of now there are only a few ways to remove time and date, use Logoaway, Virtual Dub, Crop video, Add a title or layer over the time and date or stretch the video. To be honest none of these methods are that good, you may just want to leave it and save yourself the headaches of trying removing it.

 
WebCam Mode
 
If you dont have the webcam drivers you can download the drivers here. Once the drivers are installed plug the camera into the USB then switch on the power. Push the "M' button once to enter webcam mode, a window will pop up saying "Installing Driver Software" once it has completed you can view the live capture with Programs/SPCA1528/amcap.exe"

Inside the D005
 
Take a closer look at the internal parts of the D005
 
Pros / Cons
 

Pros: Same as #3 keychain cam so it has great sound/video quality. Comes with cam mounting equipment. The included wall charger can also be used to charge other mini cams.

Cons: Not motion activation as some listed. It does have sound activation but you almost need to yell into mic to get it to come on. The audio does get a low buzzing sound from time to time.

This is what the time stamp looks like on the D005 cam.
Time/date located at the bottom right of each video/picture.
