Video time is cut shorter than what I programmed?
i. Ensure batteries are fully charged
ii. Cold temperatures may decrease battery output resulting in reduction in video length
SD card is not recognized in camera?
i. If the SD card is formatted on a computer or other camera, it may not be recognized by
this unit. Use this camera to format the SD card
ii. Ensure that SD card is not greater than 32 GB in size
iii. Ensure SD card is not locked
iv. Try different brand of SD card for compatibility
v. Do not use “Micro SD card” with adapter
vi. Use SD cards with slower write/read speed (less than 80MB/sec)
SD card is inserted into another device (i.e. camera) and is not recognized?
SD card may be formatted differently than the other device (i.e. camera) can recognize. The
camera file system is generally compatible with other digital cameras; however, it is
recommended not to use the same SD card in different cameras to avoid possible file system
conflicts
Camera fails to detect motion?
i. Ensure batteries test full; replace batteries if necessary
ii. Ensure SD card is NOT locked and compatible with camera
iii. Ensure ‘PIR Delay’ is set correctly
iv. Ensure camera is mounted correctly
 Note: hot weather, humidity, and rain will reduce PIR sensing distance;
move camera closer if required
v. Typically mounting the camera at a height of 1m will maximize detection distance, this
will depend slightly on the size of game you are trying to observe
vi. Camera may be angled up too high or too low thereby allowing subjects to walk under or
over the PIR motion detection window; adjust camera position and try again
