Setup & Programming 
Insert the SD card and batteries, then turn the camera on by momentarily 
pressing the “OK” button until the buttons light up.  
NOTE: If this is the first time you’ve used your 
camera, it will automatically display the 
Date/Time setup change option, beginning with 
Enter Year. 
Press the LEFT or RIGHT directional buttons to 
adjust each field and the UP or DOWN directional 
buttons to scroll through the fields for each step 
(Year, Month, Day, Hour, Minute and AM/PM); 
pressing the OK button once the SAVE field is 
highlighted in order to save all of your changes. 
TIP: After the initial Date/Time setup options are completed, your camera is 
ready to take pictures and/or videos. All you need to do is make sure your 
camera has a card and batteries installed, mount it to a tree, turn it on, close it 
up, and walk away. The camera will automatically arm and start taking pictures 
with default settings after 2 minutes. Default settings are as follows: 3 pictures 
with a 2 second delay between each picture or a 10 second video clip. 
Default Settings 
Your RECONYX® UltraFire™ camera comes pre-programmed with factory 
default settings. The default programming for still images is 3 pictures per trigger 
with a 2 second pause between those pictures. Video default length is 10 
seconds. The default setting for the Quiet Period (delay between triggers) is “No 
Delay”. For reference, all default settings will be highlighted in red in this manual. 
If you wish to change your camera’s settings you can do so easily in the field at 
any time. You can make changes by using the control buttons and the LCD 
display. Once you make selections, they are retained by the camera, even when 
the camera is off and the batteries are removed. You do not need to make 
selections again unless you want to change something.
