3. Log in and click the Camera icon
at the bottom of the screen, then
click “+” to add a new camera. Scan
the QR code on the label inside your
camera again or manually enter its
serial # to associate this camera
with your account.
4. Install 12 AA batteries (Energizer®
lithium batteries are recommended.
Alkaline batteries may be used
but battery life will be shorter.
Rechargeable batteries are not
recommended). Be sure to position
the batteries for correct polarity
(+/-) when installing.
5. Install a new SD card, up to
32GB. High speed cards (class 10
or higher) are recommended if you
plan to record video clips.
6. Your CelluCORE 20 Dual Sim is
equipped with a dual SIM modem.
The camera will automatically
connect to the carrier with the
strongest service (ATT or Verizon)
each time the camera is powered
on. If you want to ensure you have
the strongest signal in a given
area, simply power the camera
off and power it back on. This will
ensure you have maximum signal

strength. (We recommend using
your camera in a location that gives
you minimally two bars of signal
strength. Lower signal strength can
cause interruptions in service and
shorten battery life.)
7. Your Cellucore 20 Dual Sim comes
equipped with a detachable solar
panel. Removing and repositioning
the panel allows you to achieve
maximum sunlight and solar
charging regardless of where
the camera lens is pointed. To
reposition your panel, remove the
thumb screw from the back of the
solar panel and mount the panel
in another location using a 1/4x20
mounting bracket (not included).
(Hint: replace the thumb screw so
that you do not misplace it.) Connect
the panel to the camera with the
included alternate power supply
cable. (This cable is only needed
when the solar panel is detached
from the camera)
8. At the location where you will
place the camera, move the power
switch to the On position. The
camera’s default settings were
chosen for typical usage as a
scouting camera for hunters: photo
mode at 2MP resolution, with a 10
second interval between photos,
and “Medium” LED flash power

output. These settings may be easily
changed to suit your individual
preferences or application (for
example, if you would rather capture
videos, or photos at a different
resolution, spaced further apart),
using the app on your smartphone or
home computer.
9. Prior to closing the camera,
ensure the camera has acquired
cellular signal and is operating
properly by checking the camera
status indicator lights and guide.
Lower signal strength can cause
interruptions in service and shorten
battery life.
Mount the camera to a tree or post
using the provided tree strap or
1/4”-20 mounting socket.
Your wireless camera is now ready to use. You can now utilize
the mobile application or management website to review
images, change camera settings, monitor battery life and
manage your account.

SETTINGS MENU
CAMERA MODE - Selects type of image files that are stored/
transmitted (note: see “Hybrid” under Video submenu).
IMAGE - Still images will be captured by the camera at
settings made in the PHOTO menu.
MOVIE - Video clips will be captured at settings made in the
VIDEO menu. NOTE: your full HD video files will be stored on
the SD card, but they cannot be transmitted wirelessly due to
the file size/cell carrier bandwidth.
HYBRID- Captures a single image followed by a video clip.
IMAGE RESOLUTION - Selects resolution (in megapixels)
for still photos. Higher resolution provides more pixels for
increased detail, but creates larger files that take up more
of the SD card capacity (fills up faster). Available settings
are: Low, medium and high. Low is the default setting, which
will deliver excellent detail while still keeping the file size per
image reasonable for most users.
CAPTURES PER TRIGGER- Selects the number of photos
captured per trigger event, with settings from 1 to 5 (default
is 1 photo per trigger).
VIDEO RESOLUTION - Selects resolution for video clips.
Choice of 1280x720 (720p), or 960x544 (544p).
VIDEO LENGTH - Selects duration of each video clip captured
per trigger. The default setting is 5S (five seconds per video).
From the 10 SEC setting up, length settings are in 5 second
increments. Maximum video length is 20 Seconds.
CAMERA NAME - Allows you to enter up to 12 characters

11
of your choice to identify this camera. Especially useful for
multi-camera setups. This will be imprinted on each photo.
Default name is “CORE CAM”.
PIR DELAY - Selects the length of time that the camera will
ignore additional triggers from the PIR after an animal is
first detected and remains within the sensor’s range. During
this user set interval, the camera will not capture photos
or videos. For example, if a second trigger event occurs
7 seconds after the first, but the delay time is set to 10
seconds, the second trigger will be ignored and a new image
will not be captured until the 10 seconds has elapsed. Only
the next trigger that occurs after 10 seconds will take a new
photo/video, and so on. This prevents the card from filling up
with too many redundant images. The default setting is 10
SEC (a ten second delay). From the 10 SEC setting up, delay
settings are in 5 second increments. After scrolling past “59
SEC”, settings go from “1 MIN” to “10 MIN” and then progress
to 60 MIN at five-minute increments (15 MIN, 20MIN, etc.).
WORK MODE - Determines when the PIR (passive infrared)
sensor will activate the camera and capture images.
DAY - 6:00 A.M. - 6:00 P.M.
NIGHT - 6:00 P.M. - 6:00 A.M.
24HRS – PIR Sensor triggers 24 hours a day.
Flash Mode:
SHORT RANGE – This is Medium LED output and fast shutter
speed that is designed to capture good images of animals up
close. This setting will provide the longest battery life but the
shortest flash range.

12
FAST MOTION – This setting has maximum flash output and
fast shutter speed. It will provide the sharpest images and
medium flash range and battery life.
LONG RANGE – This setting has High LED output and Slow
shutter speed and provides maximum flash range but the
least battery life. You will also see more “motion blur” if the
objects are moving quickly at night.
TIMESTAMP - The date and time will be set once the camera
has connected to the server and will be imprinted on all
images.
WIRELESS - Sets cellular signal transmission to ON (default)
or OFF.
Communication Frequency:
IMMEDIATELY - Images will be transmitted immediately after
they are captured and saved to the SD card.
DAILY - All new images will be transmitted only once daily.
WEEKLY – All new images will be transmitted once per week.
(This setting will give you the best battery life).
MOUNTING & POSITIONING
After you’ve set up the camera’s settings to your preferences,
you’re ready start capturing images.
We recommend mounting the camera on a sturdy tree or
post with a diameter of about 6 in. To get the optimal picture
quality, the camera should be about 16-17 ft. away from the

13
place to be monitored, with the camera placed at a height of
3.5-5 ft. Also, keep in mind that you will get the best results
at night when the subject is within the ideal flash range, no
farther than 60’ and no closer than 10’ from the camera.
The height away from the ground for placing the device
should vary with the animal size appropriately. In general, 3
to 6 feet is preferred. You can avoid potential false triggers
due to temperature and motion disturbances in front of
the camera by not aiming it at a heat source or nearby tree
branches or brush (especially on windy days).
There are two ways to mount the camera:
• Using the provided adjustable belt: Push one end of the
belt through the two slots on the back of the trail camera.
Thread the end of the strap through the buckle. Fasten the belt
securely around the tree trunk by pulling the end of the strap
firmly so there is no slack left.

• Using the tripod socket: The camera is equipped with
a socket at the back (below the strap brackets) to enable
mounting on a tripod or other camera mounting accessories
that have a standard 1/4”-20 thread.

1. CELLULAR SIGNAL STRENGTH
Q: How do I make sure my camera is connected to the best
network in my area?
Your Cellucore 20 Dual Sim checks in with both ATT and
Verizon networks each time it is booted up and selects the
strongest signal for connection. (We recommend using
your camera in a location that gives you minimally two
bars of signal strength. Lower signal strength can cause
interruptions in service and shorten battery life.)
DATA & DATA PLANS
Q: If I have multiple cameras do I need a data plan for each
camera?
Yes, each camera must have an active data plan to
transmit images.
Q: How do I cancel or suspend my data plan?
You can Cancel or Suspend your data plan through the
wireless application in the “Camera” tab or through the
management website.
PHOTOS
Q: Can I transmit photos to more than one cell phone
number or email address?
Accounts are tied to a customer’s e-mail address. You can
have multiple devices logged into the same account but
only one e-mail address per account. If you wish to share
your photos with others you will need to share the account
log in information with them.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

16
Q: How do I delete photos on my account?
There are several ways to delete images. From the tile view
screen you can hold down on the image and it will select the
image (place a check next to it). Once it is selected you can
click the Trash Can icon to delete it. You can also delete the
image from the individual image view by clicking the Trash
Can icon.
VIDEOS
Q: How do I access the videos from the camera?
If there is a video captured by the camera it will be saved to
the SD card. To access the video you must retrieve it from
the SD card and insert into a computer or SD reader where
the video can be reviewed.
SD CARDS
Q: What size and brand SD card?
We recommend SanDisk Class 10 up to 32GB
