Power Supply
After opening the latch on the right side of the camera, you will see that it has 8 battery slots. For maximum battery life, we recommend using 8 lithium AA or alkaline AA batteries.
Please be sure to insert each battery with correct polarity (negative or “fl at” end against the long spring of each battery slot)
SD Card
Insert the SD card (OFF mode) before beginning to operate the camera. SD card is supported up to maximum 256 GB capacity.
Operational Modes
The cam has three basic operational modes: OFF, ON and SETUP
OFF Mode
When cam in OFF mode, you can do the following:
- replacing the SD card or batteries
- connecting cam with other device by USB port
It will occur a little of power consumption under OFF mode. If you won’t use it for a long time, please take batteries off.
ON Mode
Once in ON mode no manual controls are needed or possible (the control keys have no effect). The cam will take photos or videos automatically (according to its current parameter settings) when it is triggered by the PIR sensors detection of activity in the area it covers.
SETUP Mode
In the SETUP mode you can check and change the settings of the cam with the help of built-in LCD. Moving the power switch to the SETUP position will turn on the LCD display and you will see an information screen as below.

Settings
ClockPress OK and use UP/DOWN keys (to change the setting) and LEFT/RIGHT keys ( to move to the next field ) to set the hour (24-hr format only, “00”=midnight,”12″=noon) and minute, then move to the next row to set the year, month and date accordingly. Once all settings are made, press OK to save.
ModeSelect photos or video mode when the camera is triggered.Camera means Photo modeDual = Video
Image SizeSelect image resolution among 5M, 14M and 30M. Higher resolution produces better quality images but creates larger files that will occupy more space of the SD card We recommend 5MP at the beginning.
Capture NumberSelects how many photos are taken in sequence per trigger in Camera mode. This setting affects photos taken in Field Scan mode as well.
Video SizeSelects video resolution (in pixels per frame). Higher resolution produces better quality videos, but creates larger files that will occupy more space of the SD card.
Video LengthSets length per captured video clip. Settings begin with 10 second default when parameter is first selected. After stepping down to 5s, video length settings starts over from 60s.
Camera NameAllows the user to set a customized name for the camera. Very useful for identification purpose when multiple cameras are used at the same time since each camera will imprint its name on all photos (but not videos) it captures.
IntervalSelects the length of time that the camera will “wait” until it responds to any additional triggers from the PIR after an animal is first detected and remains within the sensor`s range. During this mode user sets “ignore triggers” interval, the camera will not capture photos/videos. This prevents the card from filling up with too many redundant images.
Coordinate InputUsing the Setup Menu Input Screens” Allows user to input latitude and longitude coordinates for camera’s location. This data will be embedded in files saved on camera’s SD card.
Time Period SetPress OK and use UP/DOWN keys (to change the setting) and LEFT/RIGHT keys ( to move to the next field ) to set time. Once all settings are made, press OK to save.Note: two time blocks can not appear in overlap section, or you will not set it successfully. For example: A 8:00-12:00 B 13:00-23:00, this is OK for set.
Time ScanTime Scan (Time Lapse) recording mode on/off. When activated, Time Scan forces the camera to take photos or videos even when it is not triggered by an nearby live animal, useful for constant monitoring of an area that might be far away from the camera. The user can set start and stop times for up to two in dependent “blocks” of Time Scan recording, as well as the interval time between each photo/video
LanguageSelects user’s preferred language from defined nine languages.
Format SD CardDeletes (erases) all files stored on a card to prepare it for reuse. Always format a card that has been previously used in other devices. Caution! Make sure you have downloaded and backed up all files you want to preserve first! Press OK to execute, press MENU (or select NO then press OK) to exit without formatting.
Default SettingsSelect “Execute” and press OK to restore all parameters to the original factory default settings.
VersionHere it shows the updated Firmware version being currently used in this camera. Make sure you download and use the most updated firmware.
Mounting and Positioning
MountingWe recommend mounting cam on a sturdy tree with a diameter of about 6 in. (15 cm). To get the optimal picture quality, the tree should be about 16-17 ft (5 meters) away from the place to be monitored, with the camera placed at a height of 5 – 6.5 ft. (1.5 ~ 2 m). Also, keep in mind that you will get the best results at night when the subject is within the ideal flash range, no farther than 60` (19 m) and no closer than 10` (3 m) from the camera.
There are two ways to mount cam: using the provided adjustable strap or the tripod socket.
- Using the adjustable strap:Push one end of the strap through the two brackets on the back of cam. Thread the end of the strap through the buckle. Fasten the strap securely around the tree trunk by pulling the end of the strap firmly so there is no slack left.
- Using the tripod socket:The camera is equipped with a socket at the bottom end.
Sensing Angle and Distance Test
To test whether cam can effectively monitor the area you choose, this test is recommended to check the sensing angle and monitoring distance of cam. To perform the test:
- Switch cam to SETUP mode.
- Make movements in front of the camera at several positions within the area where you expect game or subjects to be. Try different distances and angles from camera.
- If emotion indicator LED light blinks, it indicates that position can be sensed.
The results of your testing will help you find the best place where mounting and aiming the cam. The height from the ground for placing the device should vary with animal size appropriately. In general,3 to 6 feet is preferred. You can avoid potential false triggers due to temperature and motion disturbances in front of the camera by not aiming it at a heat source or nearby tree branches or brush (especially on windy days).
