2. Try to set your camera up in an area where there is not a heat source in
the camera’s line of sight.
3. In some cases, setting the camera near water will make the camera take
images with no subject in them. Try aiming the camera over ground.
4. Try to avoid setting the camera up on small trees that are prone to
being moved by strong winds.
5. Remove any limbs which are right in front of the camera lens.
PIR Sensor LED Flashes/Doesn’t Flash
1. When the camera is in the “Setup” mode, a special LED on the front of
the camera will flash when it senses motion. This is for setup purposes
only and will help the user aim the camera.
2. During use, the LED will not flash when the camera takes an image.
This is to help keep the camera hidden from wildlife.
LCD Screen Issues
1. LCD screen powers on but no text is present.
a. After moving the switch from “Off” to “Setup” or “On”, make sure
that the switch is correctly in position to ensure the proper mode (avoid
positions “between” two modes).
b. Do not move the switch directly from “On” to “Setup”-always move
the switch all the way down to “Off” first, then back up to “Setup”.
2. LCD screen shows a faint black line after turning from “Setup” to “On”.
a. The LCD will turn off when you slide the switch to the “On”
position. In some cases, this black line will appear and then fade in
about 1 second. This is normal and the camera will function properly.
3. Screen comes on but then powers off
a. Make sure that you have installed the SD card correctly.
Camera won’t retain settings
1. Make sure that you have been saving the changes to any parameter
settings that you made while in Setup mode, by pressing “OK” after
changing the setting. If you don’t save your new setting after changing
it, the camera will continue to use the original default setting for that
parameter.
