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.

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.)
8. Your Cellucore 20 Solar 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)
9. 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.
10. 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
