CONTROLLING THE TIME THE
CAMERA OPERATES
Cuddeback allows you to set the time of day you
want the camera to operate. This is programmed
with a feature called “Camera Window.” You can
program the camera to trigger ALL DAY, DAY
ONLY, NIGHT ONLY, or for the SPECIFIC HOURS
you select.
1) Press numerous times until [Camera
Window] is displayed ( figure 53 ). The bottom
line of the display will show the setting:
a) All Day the camera will trigger 24 hours a day.
b) Dark Only the camera will trigger only
in darkness.
c) Day Only the camera will trigger only
in daylight.
d) The selected hours will be displayed in the
form [on hour -> off hour]. In this setting, the
camera will trigger from the hour listed first
up to the hour listed second. Outside of those
hours, the camera will not trigger when activ-
ity is detected.
2) Press to increment the on hour ( figure 54 ).
3) Press to increment the off hour ( figure 54 ).
4) When the on hour is the same as off hour, the
camera is set to trigger 24 hours a day and the
display will show [All Day] (

SURVEILLANCE MODE
In normal operation, Cuddeback will stop taking
images when the Compact Flash card is full. In
some situations, you may want to keep record-
ing images even if the card is full. We call this
Surveillance Mode. When surveillance mode is
ON, Cuddeback will always take images. When
the Compact Flash card is full, a few of the old-
est images will be deleted to make room for
new images. This allows Cuddeback to always
save the most recent images.
1) Press numerous times until [Camera
Setup? C = Yes] is displayed.
2) Press .
3) Press numerous times until
[Surveillance] is displayed.
4) Press or to change the setting.
5) Off, surveillance mode is off and Cuddeback
will stop recording images when the
Compact Flash card is full. ( figure 55 )
6) On, surveillance mode is on and Cuddeback
will record all images by deleting old images.
VIEW STATISTICAL DATA
Cuddeback records a variety of statistical data
that you may find interesting, such as how
many images have been taken, how many days
you have used your Cuddeback, and other
information.
TIP - If you elect to use Surveillance
Mode we recommend a Compact
Flash Card of 256 MB or bigger.
This will assure you have a good
history of activity.
