Cellular Overview
The simplest and best way to use the RECONYX®HyperFire2TM Series Cellular
Camera is to sign up with the RECONYX®Cell Plan. Download and install the
RECONYX®ConnectTM app from Google Play or the Apple App Store.
You can setup and manage your account, view your photos, change settings, see
your camera status, & request a photo, all from the ConnectTM app.
If for some reason you cannot use the ConnectTM app, you can send photos via email
direct from the camera. This setup requires you to run separate software on a
Windows PC to configure your camera. Images sent in this manner are not stored in
your RECONYX®cloud account and are not accessible from the ConnectTM app.
Other things you will need before using your camera:
•Secure Digital®(SD, SDHC or SDXC) Memory Card (up to 512GB)
•12 AA Batteries
NOTE: RECONYX®cameras should only be powered with either Energizer®AA
Ultimate Lithium batteries or NiMH rechargeable batteries.
There is also an External Power Jack included. This can be used with our Solar
Panel Power Unit (available at www.reconyx.com) or other 12v external power
source.
•Android or iOS device to run the RECONYX®ConnectTM app to setup your
account, view your photos, and program your cellular camera.
•Activating your camera is done through the RECONYX®ConnectTM app.

your Photos in the app.

placement to be sure it is aimed correctly.

and armed. The app will wake up the camera to start

on your camera. Once in Cell Aim Mode the camera
will take and send a photo every 5 seconds, allowing
you to adjust the placement of the camera to capture
the area of interest correctly.

approximately where motion will trigger the camera.
