MOUNTING
After the setting the camera’s time/date and other options to your preference , you’re
ready to take it outside and begin capturing images of animals in the area you want to
monitor.
When mounting the camera to a tree, use the adjustable web belt provided. Please be sure
to mount it in place correctly and securely. To get the optimal picture quality, the tree
should be about 10-30ft. away from the place to be monitored, with the camera placed at a
height of 3.6-4.5ft..

Tips: Try not to mount the camera facing the rising or setting sun. If mounting to a feeder
or in a dusty environment , be sure to clean the camera lens and the PIR sensor regularly.
Periodically check the mounting of the camera to make sure it hasn’t come loose. Check
the batteries frequently to ensure they are still providing power to the camera.

FAQ
CAMERA STOPS TAKING IMAGES OR WON’T TALK IMAGES
1.Please make sure that the SD card is not full. If the card is full (display indicates ”FULL”,
the camera will stop taking images.)
2.Make sure that the power/mode switch is in the ON position and not set to OFF or AIM.
3.Make sure that you are using a good quality SD card in your camera. We recommends
SanDisk® SD cards up to 32GB.
4.If the SD card has its write protect switch in the lock position, the camera will not take
images.
5.Formatting the SD card before using it for the first time is recommended. It can be
completed using the“format”function. Make sure you have backed up (saved to your
computer) any files you want to keep on a previously used card, as formatting erases all
files.
6.Please make sure that the battery have the enough power to support to work.

21
FAQ
BATTERY LIFE IS SHORTER THAN EXPECTED
1.Check to make sure you have used new alkaline or lithium batteries. We recommends
using a full set of 8 Energize® Lithium AA batteries to obtain maximum battery life.
2. These are several variables that will determine the battery life including type of batter-
ies, temperature outside, recording settings, frequency of camera activity, etc. Colder
temperatures, night photos and photo frequency (low camera delay) will result in shorter
battery life. Note: capturing video clips and time lapse uses more power and will result in
shorter battery life than capture motion detected photos. 2S Interval mode will use more
power as more photos and videos will be taken. We recommends setting the Interval time
for more longer time to maximize battery life.
3. .Make sure that you are using a good quality SD card in your camera. We recommends
SanDisk® SD cards up to 32GB. Our experience indicates that poor quality SD cards can
sometimes reduce your camera battery life.

22
FAQ
CAMERA PIR WON’T WORK
1.Check the Interval time you settings. It won’t take images for a long time if you setting
the Interval time is too longer .You can figure out that by restore the camera to factory
settings.
2.Check if something stuff on the PIR sensor, please be sure the PIR sensor is clean.
3.Higher temperature will make the PIR detection distance become shorter. So that
sometimes the animal will not be monitored even it is through by the PIR sensor’s
detection of activity in the area it covers.
Please be sure to mount the camera in place correctly and securely. The height is need to
keep the same between the animal and camera.

CAMERA TAKES CONTINUOUS IMAGES OF NO SUBJECT


A camera has what is know as a“false trigger”if the PIR sensor thinks that there is motion
and heat in front of the camera lens when there is no subject in the images. These“false
triggers”are the result of placing the camera in an environment where there is motion
associated with tree branches creating motion in front of the camera or an area where
23
FAQ
there is high heat in the foreground and any motion from wind cloud set off the camera.
Setting a camera up over water is also a potential cause for this issue. To remedy this
situation.
1.Try moving the camera to an area that does not have any of these issues or remove
potential obstacles near the lens if possible.
2.If the camera continuous to take images when there is no subject in them, test the
camera by placing it in an inside environment and aiming at a location where there is no
motion.
If the camera continuous to show issues, then there is probably an electronic component
issue. If this the case, please contact service team.

PHOTO AND VIDEO QUALITY PROBLEMS


1.The image is blurred or out of focus
Check if something stuff on the lens, please be sure the lens is clean.
2.Daytime photos or videos appear too bright/dark
Make sure that the camera is not aimed at the sun or other light sources during the day.
24
FAQ
3.Night photos or video appear too bright
You will get the best results when the subject is within the ideal flash range, no closer than
3m from the camera. Subjects may appear too light at closer distances.
