PLAYING BACK/DELETING THE PHOTOS/VIDEOS

After you have setup, mounted and activated your Prime Trail Camera, you will
of course be eager to return later and review the images it has captured for
you. There are several different ways this can be done.

Reviewing Images Directly From the SD Card

This is the most popular method of viewing images. Since unmounting the
camera and taking it to your computer isn’t very convenient, you may find it
easier to just take the card out. By removing the SD card (swapping it for a new
empty card if you like) and taking it to your home or campsite to view the images
by using an SD card “reader” (user supplied) connected to your computer
(some computers and TVs have a built in SD card slot), you can leave the
camera in place ready to capture more images. Once connected, the card
reader works the same way as described below- please read that section if you
have any problem finding your files.

Reviewing Images by Connecting the Camera to a Computer

You can always unmount the entire camera from the tree and connect its USB
port to a computer-it will be recognized as a “removable disk”, without the need
to install any drivers or software. When using a PC (or Mac*) to view photos (or
video clips*), first connect the device to the computer with a USB cable (not
included, available at most electronics/ computer retailers) that has a “Micro-B”
USB plug on one end (camera) and a “Standard-A” USB plug at the other end
(computer). Then use commercial software with an image browser feature, or
an image browser included with the PC’s operating system to view images
saved on the SD card in the folder \DCIM\100EK001. Each new image or video
will be numbered incrementally in order of the time it was captured (first four
digits are the same “DCIM”). For example, you will see file names such as
“DCIM0001.JPG” or “DCIM0001.AVI”. Through the file format suffix you can
distinguish whether the file is a still photo (with suffix .JPG) or a video (with
suffix .AVI).

The

Prime Trail Camera

supports 2 kinds of file system formats, FAT16 and

FAT32. The default value is FAT32 to save photos and videos. Here are some
