Wireless Switch
When the wireless switch (Switch 6) is ON it adds a short sequence to the
shoot signal that makes the PIR compatible with Camtraptions wireless
triggers. Due to the extra sequence, the response time of the camera is
reduced by approximately 0.1 second. Therefore we recommend leaving this
switch in the OFF position if you are not using it.
Camtraptions wireless triggers can be used to create a wireless link between
the PIR and your camera. Follow these steps to set-up a wireless link:
1) Set Switch 6 to the ON position.
2) Use a Camtraptions E3 connecting cable to connect the PIR output
socket to the AUX input socket on Camtraptions Wireless Transmitter.
3) Connect to your camera to the Wireless Receiver by plugging your
camera connecting cable in to the "Camera" output socket on the
receiver.
Note that the Wireless Triggers cannot accept a shoot signal that is longer
than 2 seconds in length. Therefore, wireless mode may not work with some
programs where the Time Dial setting results in a shoot signal that is longer
than 2 seconds.
Also note that if you are also using Camtraptions Wireless Triggers to fire off-
camera flashes then you need to use a second transmitter placed in your
camera's hot shoe to trigger the flashes. This transmitter and the flash
receivers need to be set to a different channel to the sensor transmitter.
