Use the steps below as a guide to quickly set up your camera so it will function using the factory default settings.
STEP 1
Open camera cover. Install AA size alkaline or lithium batteries – twelve (12) for P-180i, eight (8) for P-120i – with polarities as indicated in the

STEP 2
Mount camera in desired location using a mounting strap. The camera also has Python™ Cable
Loops for added security. NOTE: Camera must be attached to a stable object for motion
detection to function properly. Mounting camera on an unstable structure may result in
excess image captures with no subject (false triggers).
STEP 4
Switch camera to Quick Start. Close cover. The camera will operate using Default settings.
You may also customize the settings if desired in Custom Start.
STEP 3
Switch camera to Aim mode. Aim camera using motion detection to determine
target area. Walk in front of the camera at the desired distance and the
camera LED will ash showing the covered area.

IMAGE REVIEW SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
Download your free Image Review software at www.moultriefeeders.com/imagesoftware
For PC users: Installation and operation instructions are available here, as well.
For Mac users: This software is not Mac-compatible. You can import your image les into a program such as iMovie and iPhoto.
PIR Sensitivity
PIR Sensitivity allows you to control as to how much movement and at what distance
the camera will trigger. HIGH sensitivity will allow for more distance, but will make
the camera slightly more susceptible to false triggers and is ideal for open areas such as
elds and food plots. LOW sensitivity will shorten the distance but lower the chance of
false triggers and is ideal for close range traps and deeply wooded areas.
Setting Multi-Shot
Choose how many pictures you would like captured in a sequence
when the camera is triggered (1 or 3).
Available options are:
1 (OFF) - Single photo taken per event.
3 BURST - Three rapidly captured photos taken per event. All 3 photos are captured within one second.
NOTE: Burst mode is only capable of up to 4MP captures, regardless of your resolution setting.
3 TRIGGERED - Up to three photos are captured per event with an approximate one second delay between each capture. Each subsequent photo
after the rst requires an individual trigger. This allows for multiple potential image captures of the same event while reducing the chance of
empty images if the subject moves out of the eld of view after the rst shot.
