DISTANCE
Turn the dial to the right to increase distance.
The DISTANCE dial (placed on the side of the camera) can adjust
the sensitivity of the detector. The camera is equipped with a
detector sensitive to infrared. The system detects only heat sources
in motion. The greater the mass of heat, more sensitive is the
system. Range of detector is between 5 and 50 feet. The best way
to adjust the distance is to set the camera in SET/TEST mode (see
above). Make sure to have the least possible objects in front of the
camera during the positioning. This prevents pictures being taken
by the camera when oriented towards the sun while an object moves
in front of the camera (eg. a branch)
SOUND RECORDING
The camera offers the possibility to record the sound in
VIDEO mode. When the VIDEO mode is selected, the camera
automatically records the sound. On the bottom of the camera, you
can find a rubber cap with the inscription MIC. If the user does not
want to record the sound, the rubber cap needs to stay in place. If
the sound recording is required, the user must lift the rubber cap
and turned it slightly so that the microphone receiver is completely
cleared (See figure below).
DOWNLOAD TO A COMPUTER
To transfer or view photos and videos on a PC, you must first turn
the camera OFF and connect the USB cable (supplied) from the
camera to your computer. The computer will recognize the camera
and install the software itself. Click on "My Computer" and select
"Removable Disk". Then click "DCIM" and "100DSCIM" to find
all your photos and videos.
Taking the SD card out of the camera and inserting it into the
computer port will achieve same results. If no SD slot is built into
the computer, a multi-card reader RD25-1 (sold separately) must
be used.

TROUBLESHOOTING
No person / animal on photos
1. Rising sun or sunset can trigger the sensor. Camera must
be re-oriented.
2. At night, motion detector may detect beyond range of
the IR of flash illumination. Reduce distance setting.
3. Small animals may trigger the unit. Reduce distance
setting and/or raise height of camera.
4. Motion detector may sense animals through foliage.
5. If person/animal moves quickly, it may move out of
the camera’s field of view before photo is taken. Move
camera further back or redirect camera.
6. Camera must be set on a stable and motionless object
i.e. large tree.
