It is possible to change the frequencies that our GSM 1400 board uses to connect to the mobile network.
86
Different options are available to configure the frequency bands on which the MKR GSM 1400 can operate.

The MKR Vidor 4000 [Camera enabling example](https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/LibraryExamples/VidorEnableCam) activates a compatible camera connected to the MIPI Camera Connector and routes the image in real time to the microHDMI connector.

3. In our example, we create the object **vcam** and then we simply enable I2C communication and initialize the camera with the `vcam.begin()` function. Please note that this function returns a value and we use it to print out an error message if initialization fails.

4. When the video stream is active and it is routed to the **HDMI** port, you can stop the video opening the serial monitor and typing **STOP**. This activates the `vcam.end();` function.
