The OM SYSTEM TG-7 may not charge when connected to a computer via USB if the battery is fully drained. When the battery has no remaining charge, the camera may not display the charging menu, preventing the user from selecting the charging option. Additionally, some computers may not provide sufficient power through USB to charge the camera properly. Using a dedicated USB power adapter instead of a computer USB port may resolve the issue.

Using Field Sensor Data Field Sensor The camera can log data on position, altitude, and other data acquired via GPS, as well as data from temperature and pressure sensors. These data can also be recorded with photographs. Logs can be viewed using the OM Image Share smartphone app.
GPS: Precautions for use Before using the GPS function, read “GPS function, electronic compass” (P.200). In certain countries and regions, it may be illegal to acquire position information without prior application to the government. Because of this, in certain sales regions, the camera may be set up not to display position information.
GPS function, electronic compass In locations with limited overhead clearance (inside buildings, underground, underwater, in forests, near high buildings) or in locations subject to strong magnetic or electric fields (near new high- voltage power lines, magnets or electrical goods, 1.5GHz mobile telephones), it may not be possible to determine measurements or errors may occur.
Before using GPS function (A-GPS data) Depending on the status of the camera and communication, it may take time to acquire the position information. When the A-GPS is used, the position determination time can be shortened from a few seconds to a few tens of seconds. Download A-GPS data using OM Image Share, the dedicated smartphone app, or OM Workspace, an image management and editing program for PCs, and write the data to the camera.
Using GPS Any of the following enable GPS: Rotating the LOG switch to LOG (P.203), setting [Record GPS location] (P.153) to [On], setting [Auto Time Adjust] in Settings] (P.139) to [On] Do not cover the GPS antenna (P.15) with your hands or metal objects. If you are using the GPS function for the first time and the A-GPS has not been updated, or if the function has not been used for a long time, it may take a few minutes for the position measurement to end.
Recording and Saving Logs While the LOG switch is in the LOG position, the camera will log GPS and other sensor data (P.198). Logs can be viewed using the OM Image Share smartphone app. Recording logs Rotate the LOG switch to LOG. Logging will start.
Using Buffered and Saved Logs To use the logs, the logs stored on the card must be transferred to OM Image Share, the dedicated smartphone app. Connect to your smartphone using the camera’s wireless LAN function (P.174). Things you can do with the designated app, OM Image Share Logs stored on the card and images shot while recording logs can be transferred to your smartphone.

Cautions Water and shock resistance This product is waterproof and shockproof. Water resistance: The camera is certified under JIS/IEC protection class 8 (IPX8) and can be used to shoot at water depths of up to 15m. Shock resistance: The camera has cleared drop tests conducted under conditions specified by our company.
Using the camera underwater Before using the camera underwater Check the seals of the battery/card compartment cover and connector cover and their contact surfaces for dust, sand, or other foreign matter. If any foreign matter is found on the gasket, remove it with a clean cloth that is free of fiber debris.
Open the battery/card compartment cover and connector cover slowly in the orientation shown in the figure to prevent water droplets from entering the inside of the covers. If water droplets come into contact with the inside surface of the covers, be sure to wipe them before use.
Batteries The camera uses our lithium-ion battery. Never use any battery other than our genuine batteries. The camera’s power consumption varies widely with usage and other conditions.

Questions and answers
パソコンとUSB でつないで充電しようとしてもランプがつかなくて充電が出来ない
The OM SYSTEM TG-7 may not charge when connected to a computer via USB if the battery is fully drained. When the battery has no remaining charge, the camera may not display the charging menu, preventing the user from selecting the charging option. Additionally, some computers may not provide sufficient power through USB to charge the camera properly. Using a dedicated USB power adapter instead of a computer USB port may resolve the issue.
