Cuddeback Capture IR Operating Instructions

Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a Cuddeback Capture IR digital scouting camera.
Capture IR is so easy to use that you may feel you do not need to read this manual.
However, we recommend you spend 5 minutes reading this manual to familiarize
yourself with the not-so-obvious features of the Capture IR. At the very least, read
on how to check your Capture IR.
What You Need
Before you can use your Capture IR, you will need the following items:
1. One or more Secure Digital (SD) cards. We recommend sizes up to 2 GB,
with 1 GB being the preferred size. The higher the number on the card, the
more images that can be saved on the card. DO NOT USE SDHC CARDS.
2. Four D Cell batteries (we recommend Rayovac, Duracell or Energizer
brand batteries).
3. An optional padlock if you want to prevent tampering. The shaft of the padlock
must be ¼ inch or smaller to fit through the Capture IR's padlock opening.
STEP 1 – Familiarize Yourself with Capture IR
Take a moment to familiarize yourself with Capture IR's parts.
STEP 2 – Turning Capture IR On
1. Mount the supplied tree bracket to the back of the camera with the supplied screw.
2. Turn the rotary switch to the OFF position.
3. Install 4 new alkaline D cell batteries. Make sure to observe correct polarity.
4. A series of numbers will be displayed. These are the Capture IR's hardware and
software version numbers.
5. Wait until the LCD display goes blank and the green & red LEDs turn off.
6. Install SD card. We recommend a 1 GB size card.
