ENGLISH
I. Operating Principle of Trail Camera
• The operating principle of the trail camera is to trigger the infrared
sensor to capture images based on changes in the ambient
temperature when animals are moving. It detects the animals by
sensing changes in infrared light, but can only capture the images
when animals are within the infrared monitoring range of the trail
camera.
• When an animal enters the monitoring range, the trail camera will
be activated through an infrared sensor to capture images and save
the file. When there is no animal within the monitoring range, the
trail camera is in a dormant standby state. However, when the animal
enters the monitoring range again, the camera will start shooting
again.

2. Setting function
• This camera has three modes: Photo,Video,Photo&Video mode.
2.1 Photo mode
• Take photos (default): only take photos, not record videos.
• Pixel resolutions of photos are: 1M, 3M, 5M, 8M, 12M, 20M, 24M.
Note: the larger the size chosen is, the higher the image clarity will
be, and the fewer the stored photos will be, and vice versa.
2.2 Video mode
• Select recording: only record videos, not take photos.
• Pixel resolutions of video are:
1920*1080.1280*720.720*480.640*480.
Note: the higher the resolution is, the higher the video clarity will
be, and the shorter the stored video time will be, and vice versa.
