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.
