7.4. Night recording
During night recording the infrared LEDs
(IR LEDs) at the front of the wildlife
camera provide the light required for
taking photos.
MAGINON WK 3 HD uses IR LEDs with a
long wavelength, to keep red light to a
minimum. The provided number of IR
LEDs generates a high deflection angle
thus allowing night recording at a distance of 3 m to 20 m, without overexposing the object. Reflecting
objects can, however, also cause overexposure within this range (e.g. road signs).
Please note that night recording using IR LEDs produces black and white images.
7.5. Setting up the live mode
The standard application of the MAGINON WK 3 HD is the so-called Live mode. When in this mode,
photos are either triggered by movement sensors or at intervals according to the respective setting.
To set up the Live mode, switch mode switch to ON position.
The red status LED flashes for approx. 5 seconds after which the
camera operates automatically and enters the Standby mode.
As soon as wild animals or other objects directly enter the
detection area of the central sensor zone, the camera starts to
record photos and videos.
Where wild animals enter the detection range of the side
sensors, the sensors detect the movement and activate the camera. As soon as the wild animals move
further into the detection range of the central sensor zone, the camera starts to take photos/videos.
Where after movement has been detected by the side sensors no further movement is detected for five
minutes, the camera returns to its Standby mode.
