Once the
Spydercam
is switched to
Live
mode, the
LED
(Green) will blink for
approximately 15 seconds. During this time the
Spydercam
will not be activated. This is
to allow you sufficient time to lock the cover and move away. Please note, that once the
green PIR indication light has stopped blinking, the
Spydercam
is activated.
Frequently Asked Questions/Troubleshooting
Spydercam
takes continuous images with no subject in picture:
There will be a ―False Trigger‖ if the PIR sensor is activated by motion or heat in the
activation zone.
To avoid this from happening try and move the
Spydercam
to an area where there is
no interference.
A further option would be to adjust the sensor level to a less sensitive level.
In cases where the
Spydercam
is set up where there is high movement volumes at a
certain time of day, use the timer to switch it off at those times.
If it persists in getting false triggers, move the
Spydercam
indoors and test again.
If the problem persists, contact your local supplier.
Battery life too short
The expected battery life depends on the temperature and number of pictures taken.
Ensure that you have used new alkaline/lithium AA batteries.
Ensure that you have used a good quality SD card (ie SanDisk), since poor quality SD
cards can reduce battery life.
Since the GPRS functionality uses more battery power as/when MMS’s are sent, it is
recommended to use an external DC 6V/1A adaptor.
