Note: We recommend that you create a Scoutek account
and activation of the device at home rather than in the

1. Open the camera door, with the power switch OFF
press the battery tray release button in the bottom right
hand corner of the camera interface. Install 8 Lithium
AA batteries. Re-insert the battery tray until you hear it
“click” into place. For additional battery life and extended
field use of the device we recomomend adding our
external power source product the Exodus SP18.
2. Insert SD card until you hear a slight click as it locks
into place. Refer to the card symbol above the card slot
for orientation. We recommend up to a 64GB Sandisk
card, no higher than a speed class 10.

is needed they are available for purchase at www.
exodusoutdoorgear.com or contact Exodus customer
service.

position. Press the Menu button. Inside the user interface

guide.
7. Pick a location and mount the camera via the included
strap or a 3rd party mounting system. We recommend
setting the camera up within 20’-25’ of where you think
the target will be. For our favorite setting options and
some of our ideas on camera setup locations, strategies,
and methods, visit our blog at www.exodusoutdoorgear.
