The camera provides the following connections for external
devices: USB port, SD card slot, TV out jack, and external DC
power in jack .The 3-way Power/Mode Switch is used to select the
main operation modes : OFF , ON and TEST.
To supply power, it is recommended to use four new
high-performance alkaline AA batteries or low self-discharge
Ni-MH chargeable AA batteries. To achieve longer in- field time,
install the additional battery box which contains four more AA
batteries.

Quick Start
2.1 Load Batteries
Install 4 AA batteries or 8 AA batteries.
2.2 Insert SD Card
The camera comes with 32M internal memory.
Before inserting the SD card into the card slot, please make sure
the write-protect switch on the side of the SD card is “off”(NOT in
the “Lock ” position).The supported memory capacity is up to
32GB . If you use a card capable of above 32GB, make sure you
test it before putting the camera in use.
CAUTION: ALWAYS SWITCH THE CAMERA TO OFF MODE
BEFORE YOU INSTALL OR REMOVE THE BATTERIES OR
THE SD CARD.
Function Switch
There are three positions for the switch: OFF, ON and TEST. They
each correspond to three different modes of the camera. When
batteries need to be changed or when the device is not in used, it
should be at the OFF mode.
2.3 Enter Test Mode
Moving the switch to the TEST position would set camera to the
preview testing mode. When the device is in this mode, you can
manually take pictures, videotape, view existing photos and videos,

7
and adjust the parameters just like using an ordinary camera.
There are three scenarios in the testing mode, and they are: 1) the
preview mode, where you can see the scenes directly in front of
the camera lens from the TFT LCD screen or the TV, 2) the setting
mode, where the menu is shown, and 3) the playback mode, where
you can view existing photos and videos that are stored in SD card
from the TFT LCD screen or the TV. The camera automatically
enters into the preview mode when it is first set in the preview
testing mode.
Switch to the TEST position to enter the TEST mode. In this mod
you can take pictures or video clips like a regular digital camera,
or enter the Menu to set up parameters. On the keypad there are
four “Shortcut ” function keys working as below :
Press the key to manually trigger the shutter.
A photo or video (depending on the camera setting) will be taken
and saved to the SD card. If the display shows “CARD
PROTECTED” when you press the SHOT key , switch the power
OFF , remove the SD card and slide its write-protect switch to off
Press the key to review/ playback photos / videos on the
LCD screen, or a connected TV monitor. Use and
key to navigate.
There is another key, MENU, on the keypad that allows you to
program the camera to work the way you want. Please make
reference to 3.1 Parameter Settings in the Advanced Operation
section.

2.4 Enter ON Mode (Automatic Infrared Shooting Mode)
Moving the switch to the ON position would set the device in the
Automatic Infrared Shooting Mode. There is a waiting time of
about 30 seconds before the system adjusts to this mode, and
during this period the red LED indicator light will keep flashing.
After that the light extinguishes and the camera can start taking
pictures by infrared inducement. Once the device is in this mode,
there would be no need for any manual operations, and the camera
will function automatically by taking pictures or videotaping the
subjects such as animals, persons that enters a certain range.
The time interval, the record time can be set before the camera is
put to work. The camera will automatically turn on when subjects
(animals, persons) enters the area covered by the PIRon the
left and right sides. Then it will take pictures or start videotaping
once the subjects are in the range of the PIR. If the subjects
enter the range of the PIRdirectly, the camera will be in
operation immediately. If the subjects leave the range of the
PIR, the camera would automatically shut down after a while.
PIR the advantages: General infrared camera to save power,
usually only PIR part is working, photographic part is closed,
when PIR detect the animals, it begin opens photographic parts
supply, Then from the start photographic parts power to start take
photo needs certain time, Our camera need 1 second. When an
animal is fast across, will pass over the camera‘s shoot range,
which will have to take a photograph of no animal.
Our preparation PIR can solve the problem. Our camera have

9
prepared PIR, its scope of induction is 100-120° Angle, a very
wide range of induction, far outweigh 50°Angle of the camera
lens, when the animals into the PIR is detecting range,
photographic parts began power on and ready to shoot after 1
second, if animals go in PIRrange (less the camera lens
Angle), will soon, this time is almost negligible, rapidly across the
animal able to photograph.
2.5 shortcut key
SHOT : Under the TEST mode, press SHOT can take photo or
video
MENU : Under the TEST mode,Press MENU, can set menu
OK: Under the TEST mode, Press OK can reply
The 7 keys from left to right are: “MENU” , “LEFT”, “UP”,
“DOWN”, “Right”, “OK” and “SHOT”. The key “SHOT”
symbolize “SHOT”, and they are shortcut keys. when the key
“SHOT” is pressed, a photo or video is take, and “OK” is
pressed, photos and videos can be reviewed.

Sensitivity
High

Select the sensitivity of the PIR
sensor. The High setting suits
indoors and environments with
little interference, while the
Normal/Low suits outdoors and
environments with more
interference. Temperature also
affects the sensitivity. The High
setting is suitable when the
ambient temperature is warm,
and the Low setting is helpful
in cold weather.
Timer OFF Select On if you only want the

12
ON camera to work within a
specified time period every day.
For instance, if the starting time
is set at 18:35 and the ending
time at 8:25, the camera will
function from 18:35 the current
day to 8:25 the next day.
Outside the time period the
camera will not be triggered or
take photos/videos.
Serial No. OFF
ON Select ON to assign a serial number to each camera you
have. You can use the
combination of 4 digits and/or
alphabets to record the location
in the photos (e.g. WT1 for
Park).This helps multi-camera
users identify the location when
reviewing the photos.
Time lapse
OFF
ON If set On, the camera will automatically take
photos/videos according to the
set interval, regardless of
whether the PIR sensor has
detected any game. This is
helpful when observing
cold-blooded animals like
snakes, or the process of
flowering, etc.

13
Side PIR OFF
ON The default setting is On. The
two side prep PIR sensors
provide wider sensing angle
and detect more potential
triggers. In some situations, you
only want to monitor a narrow
spot. Too many irrelevant
triggers by the side sensors
outside of that spot will keep
the camera on and off, which
drains the battery power
rapidly. Or in some other
situations you have difficulty
removing the interfering
branches, or avoiding the
sunlight. If so, you have the
option to turn off the side
sensors.
Delay time
1s,
optional from 1s
to 1H59M59S
Select the shortest length of
time that the camera will wait
until it responds to any
subsequent triggers from the
PIR sensor after a game is first
detected. During the selected
interval, the camera will not
take pictures/videos. This
prevents the SD card from
filling up with too many
redundant images.
