Audio Recording
Opening this function, you'll be able to record

Shot Lag
1.The Shot lag is referring to is the time delay
between one shot and the next. It is different
from the trigger speed of a trail camera(the
trigger speed is the amount of time it takes for

13
the trail camera to take and record the photo
once the camera detects an animal).
2.For example, if you set your Shot lag time
on your camera to a 5 second, when the
camera captures the action and finishes
shooting, it will wait 5 seconds before
subsequent detection. You would collect 12
sets of photos every minute.
Options：5-59 seconds or 1-60 minutes.
IR Distance
Set the distance of infrared induction.
Options: [Near]/[Middle]/[Far].

14
Sensitivity Motion Sensors
This refers to how sensitive the camera is to
objects that pass in front of it. For interior
areas and environments with little
interference, select High. Select Middle for
exterior areas and environments with a
normal amount of interference, and select
Low for environments with a high level of
interference (Please note that the
temperature may also affect the sensitivity).
The High setting is suitable for warm ambient
temperatures, whereas Low should be
selected for cold environments.
If you are looking for larger animals, such as
deer or bear, the sensitivity can be turned

15
down quite liberally, as larger animals are
obviously easier to detect. However, if you
are after getting photos of a rare song bird
that is nesting near by, the High sensitivity
might be your best option.
Options: [Low]/[Middle]/[High].
Target Recording Time
You can set the camera to start recording at a
specific clock time(Make sure you set the
date and time of the camera accurately
before using this setting). Select ON and set
the Start and End time for the active phase.
The settings made here apply to every day
monitoring. The camera will not record any

16
images outside of the active phase. For
example, you may only be interested in
nocturnal animals, so you schedule your
camera to only work at night.
Options：【On】/【Off】.
Time Lapse
When Time lapse model is turned on, the PIR
sensor is not available, which means that the
camera will not detect. Instead, it takes
photos or records video clips automatically at
your choice of intervals regardless of if there
is anything in front of camera or not.
