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. The microphone is located under the camera.
(See figure below).

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-orientated.

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.

6. Camera must be set on a stable and motionless object. e.g. large

tree.
