9.Account Registration In order to enhance the security of machine-captured and recorded content, it is recommended that you register an account after binding the device to the APP Power cord functions 1.USB Cable, used to connect the camera to a computer to view information on SD card files, no charging capability. 2.DC 6V Cable, it is possible to power the camera without a battery, and since the camera does not have a built-in battery, the camera will turn off after unplugging the 6V cable. SENSING ANGLE AND DISTANCE TEST To perform the sensing angle and monitoring distance of the camera test: 1.(MENU) Toggle the power switch to TEST . 2.Make movements in front of the camera at several positions within the area where you expect the object will be. Try different
11

distances. 3.If the red indicator LED light blinks, it indicates that position can be sensed. If it does not blink, that position is outside of the sensing area. The results of your testing will help you find the best placement when mounting the camera. MOUNTING CAMERA 1.When setting up the camera for scouting game or other outdoor applications, you must be sure to mount it in place correctly and securely. We recommend mounting the camera on a relatively straight tree with a diameter of more than 15cm (6 in.), make sure the tree is large enough to not sway in the wind as this can cause a false trigger. Position your camera facing north or south. If you position your camera aiming east or west your camera tends to have a greater frequency of false triggers due to the rising or setting sun passing through the frame. 2.To get the optimal photo quality, the tree should be about 5 meters (16-17 ft.) away from the place to be monitored, with the camera placed at a height of 0.75 -1m (2.5 -3.5ft.). Attaching your camera too low can result in getting too many pictures of small non-targeted creatures. Placing your camera too high and facing downward can cause the camera to pick up shadows and the changes in ground temperature. 3.Also, keep in mind that you will get the best results at night when the subject is within the ideal range, no farther than 30m(98ft.); and no closer than 3m(10ft.) from the camera. 4.To enhance the flash, we recommend positioning camera in an area with a backdrop to reflect the maximum amount of light. 5.Clear all vegetation from in front of the camera. Any small limbs, twigs, leaves, or grass blowing in the wind can trigger a false image. 6.Test the camera. After following the steps above to ensure it is not something environmentally driven or a result of the settings, please follow step: Take your camera and place it facing a blank wall on a sturdy
12

surface. TROUBLE SHOOTING Q1: Can’t connect to home Wi-Fi router The Wi-Fi trail camera can only be connected with your phone by the App TrailCam Go. It is not intended for surfing the internet via WIFI. Rather, it is designed to conveniently read photos or videos and set up cameras. Q2: Camera not found on App or not connected Get as close to the camera as possible (within 45ft due to the limitation of Bluetooth technology). Away from where there are numerous electronic products. The camera is turned on (Test or On). Make sure the camera battery level is good. Both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on your phone are enabled. Q3: Why did the camera stop connecting after it was just connected? Left the App over 2 minutes. Visited other apps requires cellular connection or clicking the “Map” option on the camera. In reality, when your phone remains within the app and is connected to the camera, it signifies that there is no available cellular data connection. By tapping on the “Map”, you are essentially instructing your phone to disconnect from the Wi-Fi signal and switch to the cellular network. Q4: Can not take photos or videos. No TF card in the card slot. Corrupt TF card. Batteries power is too low to power up camera. Q5: The photo is too dark at night. The illumination parameter is not set correctly. Please refer to
camera flash range settings. Lack of reflective background at night: We recommend localization the camera in an area with a backdrop to reflect the maximum amount of light. For instance, place the camera
13

8-12m(20-30ft.) from a field edge facing the woods. Low batteries power. Q6: The camera shut down automatically in TEST The camera is set to shut down the power automatically when there is no operation over 3 minutes in TEST mode. The purpose is to prevent battery run out camera. Q7: Camera Led light area appears water mist? Our cameras are hunting cameras with waterproof function. Actually, it is due to the condensation inside the lens caused by the temperature difference between inside and outside. You need to do is leave the camera in a dry place for 1-2 days. Q8: How do l change the language of the camera back to English? Adjust the camera’s on/off key to the middle setting mode, select Menu, and the fourth to last button of the menu can change the language. Q9: Apple computer cannot read video files Video file type is AVI, may not be compatible, suggest changing video player Q10: Three ways to get an image When the camera finishes taking pictures or videos, the pictures or videos will be stored in the camera’s SD card (the SD card is inserted in the lower left side of the camera), at this time, you can use two methods to export the pictures from the camera. a: check photos on TrailCam Go App b: Without removing the SD card, connect the camera with the computer using the cable, then the computer will pop up the USB flash drive device, and then you can check the photos and videos stored in the camera from the USB flash drive shown in the display. c: Insert the SD card into the card reader, and plug the card reader into the computer interface, at which time the computer will pop up the USB flash drive device to view the photos and videos stored in the camera.
