The sensor can detect sudden changes to the ambient temperature within an evaluation area. The signals of the highly sensitive infrared sensor (PIR, passive infrared sensor) switch on the camera, activating picture or video mode.
Introduction − Using the serial number function, locations can be en- coded on photos. Where several cameras are used, this function allows easier identification of locations when viewing photos. − Date, time, temperature and moon phase can be displayed on the images. −...

MAGINON WK 3 HD uses IR LEDs with a long wavelength, to keep red light to a minimum. The provided number of IR LEDs generates a high deflection angle thus allowing night recording at a distance of 3 m to 20 m, without overexposing the object.
Using the camera Setting up the live mode The standard application of the MAGINON WK 3 HD is the so-called Live mode. When in this mode, photos are either triggered by movement sensors or at intervals according to the respective setting.
Where wild animals do, however, move past the camera swiftly, it is possible that the photo only shows the rear part of the body or possibly nothing at all. The MAGINON WK 3 HD solves this problem due to the unique design of the lateral PIR sensor zone.
Using the camera animal finally enters the detection range of the central sensor zone and does not move rapidly, the photo – based on the standard reaction time of one second – will probably capture the entire body of the animal. Aligning the camera The Test mode is advantageous for determining the best possible detection angle and range of the movement sensor.

Where necessary, point the camera down for optimum alignment. MAGINON WK 3 HD corresponds to protection class IP 54. The camera is protected against dust and spray water and can thus be used in any weather condition.
