heat sources to prevent false triggering.

Avoiding temperature and motion disturbances in front of the device such as

a air-conditioner, air outlet of the chimney and other heat sources and

spotlight to prevent from false triggering.

Battery life will vary with operating temperature and the number of images

taken over time, typically, the trail camera will be able to capture several

thousand images before the batteries die.

range is much larger than the non-wide-angle camera.It can be used as

autonomic surveillance device for guarding and recording unexpected intrusion

to homes, warehouse, schools, offices, forest , work sites etc. It can also be

used as trail camera for hunting or monitoring animals by recording the traces

of wild animals. It can be triggered by sudden change of ambient temperature

caused by moving game in a region of interest (ROI), which is detected by a

highly sensitive Passive Infra-Red (PIR) sensor, and then take pictures or video

clips automatically.

Operation via a mains adapter is possible with batteries inserted. If one powersource fails, operation will be maintained using the other.

Video connection

The camera can transfer the video signal to an external monitor or the videoinput of a television set.

Connect a suitable monitor to the TV out socket using the supplied TVcable .

Inserting SD Card

► Since the camera has no built-in memory, it can only work if an SD/SDHCmemory card is inserted.► The device supports SD/SDHC memory cards with a capacity of up to 32 GB.► To avoid malfunctions, keep the memory card away from moisture and avoidstrong vibration, dust, heat sources and direct sunlight.► Insert the memory card as indicated by the icon on the slot.Never force the memory card into the slot. Never bend or twist thememory card.► After transport, wait until the memory card has reached ambient temperaturebefore using it for the first time. Major fluctuations in temperature or humiditycan lead to condensation which could cause an electrical short-circuit. Keep thememory card in the protective case.

♦ To remove an SD/SDHC memory card from the memory card slot of the device,press the protruding edge of the memory card in a little way until it pops out.Then remove the card.
