following scenarios are most likely 1) an animal ran through the picture extremely fast or
2) a smaller animal/bird is around the camera/sensor but is not in the camera field of view
or 3) the sunlight or heat in combination with moving elements (trees, brush, shadows)
is causing a false trigger. The first two scenarios are hard to prevent, but the sunlight/
heat should not cause many false triggers as the camera has been optimized to sense
and distinguish for correct triggering. To prevent potential false triggers, try not to setup
the camera directly in the sunlight. You may also change the Camera Sensitivity Setting
according to your situation.
Camera Setup Distance -
DO NOT place any game camera too close to your target
capture spot. The PIR sensor(s) field of view is extremely narrow at short distances and
game can pass through the photo capture area even with fast trigger speeds.
Camera Doesn’t Save Photos/Video
– The SD Memory Card may be locked. Please
look closely at the card and make sure the card is in the ‘unlocked’ position. If photos/
videos are still not saved by camera activity, the SD Memory Card may be corrupt or
damaged. You can try to reformat the card on a computer and try it again, or simply try
replacing it with a different/new SD Memory Card.
Storing Camera
– Do not store in extreme heat, cold, moist or humid conditions. Remove
batteries when storing for periods for longer than one week without use.

Inside Camera Operation
– The camera is designed for outdoor use. It is ok to test the
camera indoors for operation, but please note the indoor lighting and reflection may not
be optimal for correct photo exposure and video recording.
Selecting Image Size/Video Quality
