  • Page 2: Welcome

    THANKS and WELCOME! What does this new camera do? Thanks for purchasing the Digital Game Camera from Leaf River Outdoor Products. You’ve made a wise choice and we believe you’ll enjoy discovering how useful this camera is. We’ve worked pretty hard to make the Game Camera easy to use while giving you plenty of options for making different kinds of photos and videos in various situations.
  • Page 3: Getting Started

    GETTING STARTED How do I take my first pictures? BATTERIES The Game Camera requires four D batteries and three C batteries. They all go in with the “Plus” side up. Once the batteries are loaded, you can begin taking your first pictures.
  • Page 4: Motion Detector

    MOTION DETECTOR How do I work this? MOTION DETECTOR controls are located in the lower half of the inside of the Game Camera’s door. They include an LCD panel which displays settings and battery status. Any time the unit is turned on, it will begin detecting motion and taking pictures 60 seconds after the last button is pushed.
  • Page 5 MOTION DETECTOR What about the display and the Work button? THE LCD PANEL displays three “Battery” icons which tell you how much power remains in the batteries. One Bat- tery icon is for the Infra-red Illuminator D batteries, one is for the camera D batteries, and the other is for the C batter- ies which power the motion detector.
  • Page 6 MOTION DETECTOR What do Pause and Q-Shot mean? THE PAUSE BUTTON selects the number of minutes the camera will wait after it takes a picture before it can take another one. This prevents taking too many pictures of the same animal if it stays in front of the camera.
  • Page 7 MOTION DETECTOR What does the Distance Dial do? THE DISTANCE DIAL adjusts the sensitivity of the motion detector. Use this feature to adjust the detection range so that night pictures are within the range of the IR light. Turn the dial to the right to increase the distance.
  • Page 8 MOTION DETECTOR How do I store and view pictures? THE CF SLOT accepts optional “Compact Flash,” or “CF”, mem- ory cards. IMPORTANT! When you insert or remove a CF card, make sure the “Cam/Power” is set to “Off.” Otherwise, you may lose your pictures or damage the card.

    CAMERA MODEL IR-3BU How do I use the digital camera? GAME CAMERA MODEL IR-3BU uses an Infra-red Illuminator as a light source. Unlike a typical camera with a flash for making still shots, this camera can make video clips in total darkness at night. The Infra-red light is invisible to people and animals, but the Illuminator glows slightly red when it is on.
  • Page 10: Setting The Time

    CAMERA MODEL IR-3BU How do I change the settings on my camera? GAME CAMERA MODEL IR-3BU has an LCD view- ing screen for setting camera options. It can show a “live” preview of the camera image and you can use it to view pictures or video recorded in the camera.
  • Page 11: Camera Menus

    You can change camera settings by using the LCD on the IR-3BU or by connecting the “TV Out” from the camera to a television. In LIVE mode these are the menus: 1.
  • Page 12 CAMERA MENUS What do these camera settings mean? “Exposure Value” or “EV” adjusts the automatic exposure. If your pictures are consistently dark, change the setting in the Plus direction. If they are consistently too bright, change the setting in the Minus direction. “White Balance”...
  • Page 13: Camera Settings

    CAMERA SETTINGS Use this page to note the settings that work best for you. For better pictures when setting up your camera on a trail, point the camera along the trail rather than across the trail. This lets you see more than one animal if they are in a line. Use the supplied picture editing software to enhance the contrast of night pictures before you have prints made.
  • Page 14: Connecting To A Computer

    CONNECTING TO A COMPUTER How do I transfer my pictures? To transfer pictures from your camera to your computer, you have a few choices. One way is to take the CF card from the camera [with the power Off] and plug it directly into the CF slot on some computers.
  • Page 15: Troubleshooting

    TROUBLESHOOTING Oops! What do I do now? NO ANIMALS IN SOME OF MY PICTURES 1. Check to see if the camera is pointing at the rising or setting sun which can trigger the sensor. 2. At night, the Motion Detector may sense animals beyond the range of the IR illuminaton.
