7. Short video clips—not recording to the length expected
a. Check to make sure that the SD card is not full.
b. Make sure that the camera has good batteries in it. Near the end of the battery life, the
camera may choose to record shorter video clips to conserve power.
c. When LED Control is set to "High" and camera is in Video mode, the maximum video length in
"Dynamic" mode at night is 15 seconds, to avoid potential overheating of batteries and/or
electronic components. Maximum video length available when set to "Dynamic" in daytime is 2
minutes.
Date/Time Stamp not appearing on images
Make sure that the "Time Stamp" parameter is set to "On".
Photos Do Not Capture Subject of Interest
1. Check the "Sensor Level" (PIR sensitivity) parameter setting. For warm temperature conditions,
set the Sensor Level to "High" and for cold weather use, set the sensor for "Low". For variable
weather, use "Auto".
2. Try to set your camera up in an area where there is not a heat source in the camera's line of
sight.
3. In some cases, setting the camera near water will make the camera take images with no subject
in them. Try aiming the camera over ground.
4. Try to avoid setting the camera up on small trees that are prone to being moved by strong
winds.
5. Remove any limbs which are right in front of the camera lens.
PIR Sensor LED Flashes/Doesn't Flash
1. When the camera is in the "Setup" mode, a special LED on the front of the camera will flash when it
senses motion. This is for setup purposes only and will help the user aim the camera.
2. During use, the LED will not flash when the camera takes an image. This is to help keep the camera
hidden from game.
LCD Screen Issues
1. LCD screen powers on but no text is present.
a. After moving the switch from "Off" to "Setup" or "On", make sure that the switch is correctly
in position to ensure the proper mode (avoid positions "between" two modes).
b. Do not move the switch directly from "On" to "Setup"-always move the switch all the way
down to "Off" first, then back up to "Setup".
2. LCD screen shows a faint black line after turning from "Setup" to "On". The LCD will turn
off when you slide the switch to the "On" position. In some cases, this black line will appear and then
fade in about 1 second. This is normal and the camera will function properly.
3. Screen comes on but then powers off
Make sure that you have installed the SD card correctly.
Camera won't retain settings
Make sure that you have been saving the changes to any parameter settings that you made while in
Setup mode, by pressing "OK" after changing the setting. If you don't save your new setting after
changing it, the camera will continue to use the original default setting for that parameter.
