SMS CONFIGURATION
ENABLING SMS ALERTS
The camera offers the ability to send SMS alerts (fees may apply
for SMS) to one or more cell phones. Sending SMS alerts can be
done in 2 ways.
1. By activating the option "Theft alert" y g p : The camera has a
security system allowing the detection of unexpected shocks or
movements (in case of theft or vandalism) and can inform the user
by sending an SMS alerts to one or more cell phones. This option
can be activated via the settings menu of the camera.
2. By activating the option "Security alert" y g p y : available only when
the camera is configured in Security mode, this option allows the
camera to send an SMS alert to one or more cell phones to warn
when images are transmitted.
Note: This last option can be activated via the
mySPYPOINT TM user's account only, under the tab
"Setup" and then in the section "SMS Alerts". For this
setting to take effect, the camera must be configured in
Security mode (settings menu of the camera).
DOWNLOADING TO A COMPUTER
To transfer or view pictures and videos using a computer, the camera
must be powered and set to the main menu before connecting the
USB cable (supplied) to the computer. Once the cable is plugged,
the computer recognizes the camera and installs the software
automatically. Click on “My Computer” and select “Removable
Disk”. Then click “DCIM” and “100SPYPT” to find the photos and
videos stored on the memory card.
The folder named “TRANSMIT” is a systems folder used by the
cellular transmission protocol, ignore this folder.
Note: Videos in .MP4 format require the use of a compatible
video player software such as VLC or QuickTime.
Taking the memory card out of the camera and inserting it into the
computer port will achieve the same results. If no SD card slot is
built into the computer, use a multi-card reader RD25-1
(sold separately, see OPTIONS).
TROUBLESHOOTING
No person or no animal on photos:
1. Rising sun or sunset can trigger the motion sensor. Camera must
be re-oriented.
2. At night, motion sensor may detect beyond range of the IR
illumination. Reduce the detection range of the camera (“Settings
menu” / “Sensitivity”).
3. Small animals may cause unwanted detections. Reduce the
detection range and/or raise the camera.
4. Motion sensor may detect animals through foliage.
5. If a 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.
