Options are: 10 sec, 20 sec, 30 sec, 1 min, 5 min, 10 min, 30 min On a lower setting, the camera will trigger more often than when a higher delay is selected. VIDEO LENGTH: Selects the length you would like each daytime video to be. All night videos are 10 seconds in length, this is to ensure maximum battery life.

When this setting is on, you can walk to your target area and move around. The red detection LED will light up when the camera detects you. The camera will arm when it does not detect motion for 30 seconds. DEFAULT SETTING: Resets all of the menu settings back to default. Reference page 9 for Quick Start default settings.
FORMAT SDHC CARD: Allows you to format your SDHC Card. Formatting a SDHC card clears file system corruption and erases everything on the SDHC card. NOTE: Before each use, it is highly recommended to either perform a full format on the SDHC Card via a PC, or by performing the Format option on the trail camera. CAMERA ID: Gives a name to your trail camera that will imprint on the photo files (not video).
PICTURE INFO BAR: P I CTURE I NFO BAR ON This setting is only available in Camera Mode, not Video Mode. It allows you to choose if you want the photos to have the current information imprinted on your files or not.
MOUNTING & FIELD SET-UP: Your Pro-Cam trail camera comes with a 5’ nylon Fig. 2 mounting strap which allows for quick and easy mounting (Fig. 1). The camera has an open slot on each side of the back for your strap to thread through for mounting. There is also a cable track formed in the back of the camera for additional cable securing (cable sold separately).
ARMING THE CAMERA: Your Pro-Cam trail camera will arm itself to take pictures when powered on, with no button activity for 30 seconds, and on the home screen. After 30 seconds, the camera is armed and ready to take pictures. The camera will arm itself in 90 seconds with no activity and in the camera menu. You can also quickly activate the camera by pressing the RIGHT arrow from the main startup screen. This will start a 3 second delay. At which point, the camera will be armed and ready to take pictures.
CAMERA CARE: Moisture, vibration, and extreme temperature can cause severe damage to your trail camera and should be avoided. Keeping your camera free from moisture and vibration and using in the correct temperatures will assure you many years of maintenance free service and operation. MOISTURE: Although the Pro-Cam trail camera has a very durable waterproof membrane inside the molded ABS material shell, care must be taken to prevent water damage.
TROUBLESHOOTING: CAMERA NOT RESPONDING: If your camera at any time does not respond when powered on, or you cannot power it off, your camera may be locked up. The best way to resolve this problem is to remove the AA battery compartment for a period of 10 seconds. This will cut the main power supply to the camera and will take care of the problem. If you are using an alternate power supply, remove any connections for a full 10 seconds.

Failure to follow this warning may cause serious injury or blindness! WARNING! Do not expose camera interior components, batteries, or SDHC card to rain or water.
