Burst - Number of pictures taken each triggering event.
Photo Resolution - Mega Pixels (MP) are referring to the number of pixels in
an image, basically the higher the number, the more pixels. This DOES NOT
mean more pixels is always better. Your Super Model™II camera sensor is
optimized to take good, clear images at all mega pixel resolutions. Please
use this guide to help you choose which resolution setting will work best for
your situation.
Best image quality - finer details when
zooming in for a closer look. Use for
chance of capturing photo of a lifetime
if you think the 'big trophy' is in the
area. Great for printing large-scale,
photo quality images.
Better image quality and a balance of
benefits between lower and higher MP.
For good image quality and recording a
large number of images. Faster to save,
transfer and e-mail. Recommended for
standard everyday use.

Larger size videos, but really large file
size and will fill up the SD Memory
card much faster than low resolution.
Better for expanding/maximizing on
your computer screen so you can see
the important action!
Smaller size videos, but can store 7
times more than high resolution for the
same length! Good for seeing what is
going on in your area, but not great for
expanding/maximizing on your

SLIDING SWITCH SETTING - TIME LAPSE MODE
Setting - Time Lapse
Captures time lapse photography automatically all day and saves footage in
a video file. This mode has gained popularity for scouting further distances,
such as big open areas (food plots, fields, etc) where you will capture footage
automatically whether there is motion directly in front of the camera or not.
However, with the camera constantly taking pictures all day, the battery life
will be limited (see Battery Life in manual).
Media Saved: All Day AVI Videos
Setting – Time Lapse + Images
Same as Time Lapse above, but ALSO will simultaneously capture photos
(with default photo setting - see below) during the Night and/or Day when
motion is detected. This mode allows the long range surveillance but also
with the convenience of quickly seeing what walking directly in front of the
camera [without having to watch the entire day time lapse video] . However,
with the camera constantly taking pictures all day, the battery life will be
limited.
Default Image Settings: Photo Lo (5MP), 3 Burst, Delay 5 seconds
Media Saved: All Day AVI Video and JPEG Photos

1211
Time Lapse Interval – The pre-set amount of time (seconds or minutes)
you desire between each time lapse photo.
Short intervals offer more constant surveillance but your AVI video file will be
larger. Longer intervals will
reduce the video file size and save battery life.
**If you don’t want your camera taking Time Lapse ALL DAY, then move
the slider switch to ‘CUSTOM’ and press to open the Custom Time Lapse

Date - Change to current date. Date in camera will be displayed on pictures
and videos.
Time - Change to current time. Time in camera will be displayed on pictures
and videos.
Camera Sensitivity (Sensing) - Motion Detector Sensitivity. Use ‘Normal’ as default.
TIP: It may not always be best to use ‘high sensitivity’ to see how far away you can capture
images of game. If the game is closer when the camera is triggered, you will end up with better
pictures/videos. You can learn what is best for your situation; here is a summary of the settings:
You can adjust the sensitivity of the Passive Infrared (PIR) Motion Sensor on your camera.
The PIR sensor detects motion AND the difference between body heat and the outdoor
temperature. Therefore, adjusting the sensor affects the DISTANCE and HEAT SENSITIVITY
of the detection.

Format - Formats SD Memory Card installed in camera – this DELETES ALL
PHOTOS OR VIDEO or any other data on memory card!!!
To proceed with formatting:
1. Press ENTER and use UP or DOWN arrow to switch to ‘YES’. Press
ENTER again.
2. Camera will ask: Are you sure you want to format the memory card?
3. Select Yes to continue, No to cancel.
When formatting is complete, camera will take you back to the main screen
and the photo count should read ‘PHOTOS: 0000’.

TIP: It may not always be best to use ‘high sensitivity’ to see how far away you can capture
images of game. If the game is closer when the camera is triggered, you will end up with better
pictures/videos. You can learn what is best for your situation; here is a summary of the settings:
High Sensitivity
• Use when trying to detect game at further distances (in fields or open areas with long-range visibility)
• May use in warmer months or high heat climates so it is easier for sensor to detect difference
between body heat and outdoor temperature.
• May use when trying to capture photos of smaller game.
Normal Sensitivity
• Optimized to work best in most conditions and for normal use
Low Sensitivity
• May use if you have the camera setup in a location that is getting a lot of ‘empty’ photos
(false triggers)
• May use if you are getting a lot of hard-to-see long range photos of game (more likely in colder
temperatures or with larger game) and would like game to get closer before camera captures images.
