Question 2

How do I set the time and date on my pen camera?

Accepted Answer

If you want to change the date and time by yourself, the procedure is very simple. On your computer, plug in your pen camera. "A new Removable disc should appear. Now, with the "notepad" application of the same computer, create a file called "time.txt." Setting the TIME AND DATE is done by editing a text file named  the time.txt .txt in the root directory of the device's memory card. Open the time.txt file in an editor like Notepad and set the proper date and time along with ‘Y’  or ‘N’ at the end.
For example, if it is set 2022-02-26, 15:20:35 Y (to enable display on video files) or N (if you do not want the date and time stamp displayed on video files) -you will need to edit this data with the correct TIME and DATE.
After saving the file, disconnect the video camera from the computer and turn it on.
