Resetting the Camera
Press the Reset Button with a thin and blunt object to reset the camera to the factory default settings.
Auto Rotation
The XS100 has a built-in G-sensor which is able to detect camera orientation. By mounting your camera 90°, 180° or 270°
from the default position (refer to picture at right), the recorded view will be rotated to the same angle. This allows the
user to mount the camera in different angular positions without recording a rotated or inverted view. The
video resolution will be adjusted for 90° and270°. Review the table below.

*Adjust your camera orientation before you start recording. The rotation feature will not be activated throughout the
recording process.
