Powering Camera
1.5V AA Alkaline battery power and/or external 12V battery
power status is able to see from the mobile APP. See under
Device Menu option.
8pcs AA 1.5V Alkaline battery use
You can use your camera with 8pcs of AA 1.5V high quality
Alkaline Batteries. Batteries should be inserted with correct
electrode position as marked in battery case. Incorrectly inserted
batteries will cause device damage.
Do Not mix old and new batteries together in the camera. Do Not
mix different branded batteries in camera.
Warning: Always remove batteries when storing the camera.
Removing batteries from the camera during storage reduces the
risk of battery acid leakage and battery drain. Any kind of Battery
leaks or problems are not covered by the warranty.

detection zone, different brands and quality of batteries and time
of the year (summer vs winter), we are not able to give you exact
number of photos and/or videos that camera can achieve.
You can add your camera operation time connecting the camera
to 12V external LeadAcid battery. You can keep the internal AA
Alkaline batteries installed during the external 12V power source
use.
12V External Battery use
You can connect your camera to external 12V battery with
NITEforce battery cable (included). Using 12V external battery
you will achieve longer operation time on the field. 12V LeadAcid
batteries are available from battery specialized stores. Please
see examples:

- 16 -
Good and High Capacity battery choices for colder winter time
months use are for example 12V / 7Ah or 12V / 10Ah or 12V /
12Ah LeadAcid batteries. More Capacity = Longer Operation
time. If external battery is used under extreme cold winter
circumstances, you can place the battery inside the plastic bag
and bury the external battery under the snow layer. Snow layer
will be protecting the external battery frozen when cold (-10 °C
or colder).
Note 1: Camera Operation Temperatures are -20°C ... +50°C
Note 2: Check your Battery Operation Temperatures from dealer
When the external battery power is dropping below 11V, it’s time
to re-charge your battery with 12V Power-Charger.
MOUNTING OF THE CAMERA
This camera is designed to use the Nylon mounting strap
(included) to obtain maximal mounting versatility. Camera can be
securely locked with cable lock (sold separately).
It is recommended to mount the camera 1m – 1.5m height

pointing to desired area and 7m away from target center area for
maximum sensitivity in most situations. Adjustments may be
required depending on animal size and environment. PIR motion
detection distance changes based on ambient temperature and
setup. Higher ambient temperatures will reduce PIR motion
detection range thereby requiring camera to be closer to desired
location. Mounting camera too high or angling camera may
result in animal or humans going under or above the PIR motion
detection range.
Angle the camera perpendicular to the ground to maximize the
Flash lighting potential.
Note: Cars and other motorized vehicles are not animals. Those
are emitting heat motion differently vs humans and animals. Cold
engine is not emitting heat.

Avoid installing the camera directly at sunrise or sunset, so that
the sunlight will not directly shine on the lens. If installed in a
dusty environment, regularly clean the camera lens cover, flash
cover and PIR sensor cover. Regularly check the camera
mounting to ensure that it doesn’t become loose. To keep any
water from damaging the equipment, the camera door must
remain closed with the latch locked tightly while the camera is in
use. Regularly check if the battery has a corrosive accumulation,
which may harm the camera. Regularly check the battery power
to ensure that there is enough power.
Trouble Shooting
Camera is Not Sending?
* Please check the SIM data plan transfer speed from your
operator. The camera supports SIM card with LTE 4G High
Speed. Upload Speed 5MB/sec is required from your SIM data
plan. Low Speed “2G” data plans are not able to transfer
original pictures (too slow network)!
* Please check that you are using external 12V battery especially

- 20 -
during the winter months. Sending during the cold winter
requires Power. Small AA batteries could be frozen more easily
(power is frozen).
* Check that micro SD card is not full
* Please make sure SIM card PIN code is disabled (OFF)
Photos Do Not Capture Subject of Interest?
*Check the “PIR Sensor Level” (PIR sensitivity) parameter
setting
*Try to set your camera up in an area where no heat resources
are in the camera’s field of view (lake, river)
*In some cases, like camera near water will make the camera
take images with no subject in them. Try to aim the camera over
ground.
*Try to set camera on stable and immovable objects
* At night, PIR motion detector may detect beyond range of the
Flash illumination. Reduce distance setting by adjusting PIR
sensor sensitivity.
* Rising sun or sunset can trigger sensor. Camera must be
reoriented.
* If person or animal moves quickly, it may move out of the
