Mounting

When mounting to a tree:

1. First, remove the clip from one end of the strap so you can slide the strap through the mounting slots on the back of the camera.
2. Place the clip back on the strap.
3. Wrap the strap around the tree and clip the two ends together.
4. Pull the excess material to ensure the camera is strapped tightly to the tree.

IMPORTANT TIPS:

• Recommended distance from target area is 25-30 feet for optimal imaging quality.
• To improve image quality, avoid mounting the unit facing the rising or setting sun to prevent direct sunlight into the camera lens.
• If mounting in a dusty environment, clean the camera lens cover, incandescent flash cover, and the PIR sensor cover regularly.
• Periodically check the mounting to ensure it is not loose.
• Make sure to securely latch the door closed each time you use the unit, as the moisture seal will not be activated unless closed properly.
• Check batteries frequently to ensure no corrosive build-up, as this may cause harm to the camera.

Retrieving Images (SD Card Reader)

1. First, remove the SD Card from the camera by pressing on it until it automatically ejects.
2. Next, insert the SD card into your SD card reader.

Please refer to your card reader's owner's manual for the proper way of viewing the files.
