Cuddeback EXPERT - Manual (Page 23)

MOTION / HEAT DETECTOR SENSITIVITY LEVEL
The sensitivity of Cuddeback's motion/heat sensor
can be changed.
1) Press numerous times until [Utilities? C =
Yes] is displayed.
2) Press [View Quality] is displayed.
3) Press [Sense Level] is displayed ( figure 74 ).
4) Press or to change the setting. Select
one of the following settings.
a) Low
b) Standard
c) High. We recommend using this setting.
d) Auto will program Cuddeback to automatically
change the sensitivity level for day or night
activity. This limits Cuddeback's detection
range to the distance of the camera's flash.
TIP - Detection performance
varies with air temperatures and
animal size. If you photograph
more small animals than you
would like, or see more blank
images, lower the sensitivity.
Blank images are typically caused
by very fast moving animals and
birds. Setting a sensitivity level of
low or standard will reduce these
occurrences. However, because a
digital image does not cost any-
thing, we recommend using the
high setting and allow for the few
blank images that may occur.
