Operating Principle
1. Aligning the camera
In test mode you can work out the optimum exposure angle and the
range of the motion sensor.
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:
Fasten 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 To ensure that the camera doesn’t make unwanted recordings of
irrelevant movements, it should not be set up in a sunny location or
close to branches. The detecting range of the sensors is 80°. And the
recording angle of the camera is about 90°.
2. Normal working mode
In this mode, recordings are triggered via the motion sensors.
To set live mode, slide the operating mode selector switch to the “ON”
position. After 15 seconds, the LED of motion display will go off.
Then the camera will start to operate independently and will go into
standby mode. As soon as any wild animals or similar enter the
detecting range of the side motion sensors, the camera will be
activated and detect the motion. If the wild animal keeps moving to the
detecting range of the central sensor zone, the camera will start
capturing photos and/or videos (depending on the configuration).
After the wild animal moves out of the detecting range of side motion
sensors, the camera switches off and goes back into standby mode.
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 influence on the stability of the camera. So in case of the
low voltage, it better not to record in the evening.
Videos/photos/dates 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 connecting, the camera enters the mode of playback and the
LCD turns off. What the camera captured would be shown on the TV.
2. Transferring recordings to a computer
Connect the camera with the computer through the cable. After
successful connection, there would appear a new driver named mass
storage on the computer. Photos and videos can be found in
“DCIM/100MEDIA” in the mass storage and can be copied to the
computer.
Note: In case of data loss, please don’t disconnect the cable or
take out the memory card when copying photos/videos.
