IMPORTANT TIPS: 

1.    

When mounting to a tree, first 

remove the clip from one end 

of the strap so you can slide the 

strap through the slots located 

on the back of the camera. Once 

the camera is attached place the 

clip back on to the strap. Then, 

wrap the strap around the tree 

and clip the two ends together. 

Pull the excess material so that 

the camera is straped tightly to 

the tree. 

• 

Recommended distance from target area is 

25-30 feet for optimal imaging quality. 

 

• 

To improve the quality of your images, 

try not to mount the unit facing the rising 

or the setting sun in order to avoid direct 

sunlight into the camera lens.

 

  

• 

If mounting to a feeder unit or dusty 

environment, be sure to clean the camera 

lens cover, incandescent flash cover, and 

the PIR sensor cover on a regular basis.

 

• 

Periodically check the mounting of the 

camera to insure it is not loose.

 

• 

Make sure that you securely latch the 

door closed each and every time you use 

the unit, as the moisture seal will not be 

activated unless closed properly.

 

• 

Check batteries frequently to insure no 

corrosive build-up, as this may cause harm 

to the camera.
