Set Timed Scan
Timed scan is a revolutionary new feature for the KeepGuard
Cam, which allows you to monitor your food plots or field edges
with time lapse image or video. When set to "on",the cam will take
photo (or record a video clip) automatically at your choice of
intervals (for examples, once five minutes ) during a block of time
you set up for each day, without requiring a trigger from an
active animal. This has the advantage of giving you the ability to
monitor the edge of a field that might be 50 or 150 yards away from
the camera out of the PIR sensor's range. The result is en effective
range much greater than it would normally be, with the dependent
on triggers generated by nearby animals. This is a great tool for
hunter to scout an entire field with only one camera.
If an animals does enter the area covered by the PIR sensor and
generate a trigger event during a time in between the Timed Scan
intervals you set, the camera will capture an image or video just as
it normally would, based on your other menu setting. Here's how to
setup and use Timed Scan :
1. Move the main switch to SETUP, then press MENU.
2. Keep pressing the RIGHT key,stepping through the Setup Menu
until you reach Timed Scan.
3. Press the UP key to select On, and press OK. This takes you to
the screen to set Start and Stop times, which determines the clock
times when the first block of Timed Scan recording will begin and
end for each day. You can set these times to the exact hour and
minute you want, for a recording "Window" that lasts anywhere
from just a minute to a full 24 hours.
4. Set the [Start] and [Stop] times,beginning with the Start hour,
using the UP/DOWN keys to change the setting. The hour setting
is based on a 24-hour clock, with "00" hours=midnight, "12"
hours=noon, "23" hours=11PM,etc. To move to the next setting,
press the RIGHT key, change the minute for the start time with
UP/DOWN, then on to the hour and minutes setting for the stop
time.
5. After you finish setting the Stop minutes, press OK to confirm
your settings for the block of Timed Scan recording.
6. After setting Start/Stop time to define Timed Scan block, press
OK, then press the UP or DOWN key to select "Interval" and press
OK. The Timed Scan "Interval" setting lets you control how often a
photo or video clip is recorded during the block of time you defined
with the Start and Stop settings. Your options are 60 minutes, 30
minutes, 15 minutes, 5minutes (this is the default), or 1 minute (still
photo mode only). Use the UP/DOWN keys to select your
reference, then press OK to save it. Note that for videos, "interval"
is independent of the length of each video recording - it's how often
videos are recorded, not how long each one lasts.
7. Here's an example of how the camera would operate, based on
the following Timed Scan setting:
