removing batteries.
Please make sure the batteries are inserted correctly, as indicated inside
the battery compartment. Incorrect voltage or polarity (+/-) will damage
the camera.

Rechargeable batteries are not recommended.
Memory
Your Digital Trail Camera has a memory card slot, to accept SD cards up to
32GB max. capacity (sold separately).
Inserting an SD card
• Make sure the power switch is in the OFF position whenever adding
or removing memory.
• Insert an SD card into the card slot completely and oriented correctly
as shown by the icon above the slot (label up, contacts facing down
and notched corner on the right).
• To remove the SD memory card, depress the SD card and pull out
the card gently.
Using a new, blank SD card is recommended. If the SD card has been used
in another device, please make sure to format using the Format option in
the Trail Cam’s Setup menu before you set the camera to capture photos/
videos. New cards are ready to use straight from the package.

ABOUT THE SETUP MENU
Slide the power switch to the On position. You’ll see“WAIT”on the display,
then the setup menu screen. Before you start using the camera, you’ll no
doubt want to set the date/time so they are imprinted correctly on your
photos, and maybe change the trigger delay time and image resolution
to your preferences. This is done by editing the settings of an item listed
in the Setup Menu.
To enter the Setup Menu at any time, press the SETUP button (to left of
the power switch).
USING THE SETUP MENU
The Setup Menu has 5 dierent items, which appear on a list in the left
frame of the display. Here’s how to edit (change) the setting of a menu
item:
1. Select the menu item you want to edit by pressing the UP or DOWN
button until the item is blinking. Note: you can see the current/
default setting for each item (without changing it) in the main center
frame as you move up and down the list of items.
2. Press the OK button.
3. You can now select the setting you prefer for the selected item by
pressing the UP or DOWN button (do not hold the button down). The
setting displayed in the center frame will blink until you press OK to
conrm it is the setting you want to save.

Selects the length of time that
the camera will “wait” until it
responds to any additional
triggers from the PIR after an
animal is rst detected and
remains within the sensor’s
range. During this user set
“ignore triggers” interval, the
camera will not capture photos/
videos. This prevents the card
from lling up with too many
redundant images. Settings
begin with 10 second default
time. Press OK, set the delay time
in minutes (if desired), press OK
and set the delay in seconds.
