MOUNTING AND AIMING THE CAMERA
Mounting
After setting the camera’s time/date and other options to your
preferences, you’re ready to take it outside and begin capturing
images of animals in the area you want to monitor. When
setting up the Tasco Trail Camera for scouting game or other
outdoor applications, you must be sure to mount it in place
correctly and securely. We recommend mounting the Tasco
Trail Camera on a sturdy tree with a diameter of about 6 inches.
To get the optimal picture quality, the
tree should be about 16-17 ft. away
from the place to be monitored, with
the camera placed at a height of 2.5-
3.5 ft. Also, keep in mind that you will
get the best results at night when the
subject is within the ideal flash range,
no farther than 40 ft. and no closer
than 10 ft. from the camera.
There are two ways to mount the
Tasco Trail Camera: using the
provided adjustable web belt, or the
tripod socket.
