GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1 Introduction Our scouting camera (also called game camera/trail camera) is a scouting device. It can be triggered by sudden change of ambient temperature caused by moving game in a region of interest (ROI), which is detected by a highly sensitive Passive Infra-Red (PIR) sensor, and then take pictures or video clips automatically.

Switch to the ON position to enter the live mode. The Motion Indicator will flash red for about 10 seconds and the camera starts working by itself without any manual handling. It will at once shoot pictures or record videos when game or other objects enter the PIR area of the main sensor directly.
If the game continually enters into the PIR area of the main sensor, the camera takes pictures immediately, therefore catching the whole body of the game. This split-second process could be as short as 0.2 second. In the case the game browses only in the PIR area of the prep sensors, to avoid the camera being powered on constantly, the system is designed to work in the following way: If the game does not enter the PIR area of the main sensor and therefore not trigger...
