Working mode description

1.Aligning the camera

In the test (SETUP) mode, you can calculate the optimal shooting angle and

camera range of the camera.

1.1 During alignment consider whether the use of the side motion sensors may

be useful for attaining the desired observation results.

1.2 Align the camera as follows:

1.2.1Fasten the camera to a tree or similar object at a height of 1-2 meters and

align the camera in the desired direction. Then move slowly from one side of

the target area to the other side. While doing this, monitor the motion display.

1.2.2 If this lights up in blue, you have been detected by one of the activated side

motion sensors. If it lights up in red, you have been detected by the front motion

sensor. In this way, you can work out the best alignment for the camera.

1.2.3 The motion display only lights up when operating mode selector switch is

in the TEST position and one of the motion sensors has detected movement.

During normal operation, there will be no LED display in this area.

1.2.4 Make sure that the camera is not subject to unnecessary interference while

it is working. Keep away from direct sunlight, hot objects or near branches. The

sensor's detection range is about 120 degrees, and the lens can shoot about 90

degrees.

2.Normal working mode

In this mode, shooting is triggered by the sensor. Enter the monitor mode when

the switch is in the "ON" position, and the LED will go out after 5 seconds. The

camera starts to operate independently and enters standby mode. Once an

animal enters the detection area detected by the secondary sensor, the camera

will be activated and the motion track will be detected. If the object continues

to move to the area detected by the main sensor, the camera will automatically

take a picture or video. If the animal leaves the area detected by the sensor, the

camera will turn oﬀ and return to the standby monitor mode state.

3.Night working mode

3.1 During night exposures the infrared LEDs on the front of the camera provide

the required light for taking pictures. The range of the LEDs makes the camera

to shooting pictures within 3m-20m.However, reﬂective objects can cause

overexposure.

3.2 Please note that pictures taken in night exposures are black and white.

When recording a video for a long time, the low voltage may have great in

ﬂuence on the stability of the camera. So in case of the low voltage, it better

not to record in the evening.

Videos/photos/datas output

1.TV connections

The camera can transfer the video signal to an external monitor or the video

input of a television set. Please also follow the instructions of the respective

playback device.

1.1 Open the TV, connect the TV with the camera through date cable

1.2 Open the camera, and slide the operating mode selector switch to “SETUP”

1.3 After successful connection, the camera is connected to the TV, and the LCD

screen will turn black, and the captured picture will be displayed on the TV screen.

2.Transferring recordings to a computer

After the camera is connected to the computer and enters the removable

disk mode, a removable disk will be added in the “My Computer” window.

The captured photos or videos are stored in the “DCIM” directory of the

removable disk. There are two folders: MOVIE storage. The video ﬁle

recorded by the camera, PHOTO stores the captured image ﬁle, and enters

these two directories to copy the ﬁle to your computer's hard disk.

Note: In case of data loss, please don’t disconnect the cable or take

out the memory card when copying photos/videos.
